Jerry Nadler just made a great point on MSNBC [View all]

He said that, far from opposing an impeachment inquiry, Speaker Pelosi has been very supportive.

And, as an example, he said that Friday's court filings requesting the grand jury materials were drafted and filed by House Counsel, which operates under the direction of the Speaker, and could not have been submitted without her express approval.

So much for the anonymous sources claiming that Nadler wants to move forward on impeachment but Pelosi won't let him.
