Here is what they are talking about........

Fresh-faced U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib wasted no time in calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump just hours after being sworn in.

Speaking to a crowd of supporters Thursday night, the Michigan Democrat and one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress said of Trump: "People love you and you win. And when your son looks at you and says, 'Momma, look you won. Bullies don't win.' And I said, 'Baby, they don't, because we’re gonna go in there and we’re gonna impeach the mother***er.'”

Tlaib’s proclamation came hours after the Detroit Free Press published her op-ed calling for Trump’s impeachment.

"President Donald Trump is a direct and serious threat to our country. On an almost daily basis, he attacks our Constitution, our democracy, the rule of law and the people who are in this country,” Tlaib wrote. "Each passing day brings more pain for the people most directly hurt by this president, and these are days we simply cannot get back. The time for impeachment proceedings is now."

To remove a sitting president, the constitution requires conviction of “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” The impeachment process would further require the consent of both the House and two-thirds of the Senate, which is still a Republican majority.

Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., on Thursday re-introduced articles of impeachment that he had filed last year with Democratic co-sponsor Rep. Al Green of Texas.

Nancy Pelosi, who was re-elected to Speaker of the House Thursday, said she isn't ruling out impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, depending on findings by the special counsel investigating Russia's meddling in the 2016 election.

"We shouldn't be impeaching for a political reason, and we shouldn't avoid impeachment for a political reason," she said.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib may be "fresh faced" but she is also foul mouthed.
And, interesting that Pelosi is now talking possible impeachment when just a few months ago, she urged Democrats not to talk impeachment.

Impeachment is inevitable. The question is timing. The GOP must convict an impeached POTUS. The Democrats must impeach the POTUS in such a way that it will be politically dangerous for Republicans in the Senate to vote against convicting and removing the POTUS.

Pelosi is waiting for Mueller, who very likely has a sealed indictment waiting for the POTUS.

We’ll have to wait and see....

+1 Trump says he wants to shut down the Government for years. I see the GOP encouraging him to quietly resign and let the competent adults back in the building.

I agree it's a game of chess.
I don't agree impeachment is inevitable. I wish it were, but it isn't.

What about removal due to mental incompetence?
Because this week, it's starting to look at removal due to mental instability.

Thanks, immediate PP. The Trump-inspired frenzy at DCUM has a habit of self-delusion. I’m sure that anti-Trump forces are better off NOT counting on Mueller for anything and instead thinking about an improved political strategy. It’s an unpopular opinion here, but I’ve yet to see any thoughtful pushback.

I have not heard a specific date. I was told the hammer would drop sometime before February 1.

Gotta love the DC rumor machine.
