[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Vote in an official impeachment inquiry so the rules kick in and these things won't happen. [/quote]

No vote is required. Nancy already announced the beginning of impeachment inquiry om 9/24: https://www.c-span.org/video/?464684-1/speaker-pelosi-announces-formal-impeachment-inquiry-president-trump

The is no law and nothing in the Constitution that requires a vote. We are in the midst of the inquiry.[/quote]

A formal inquiry does indeed require a vote.[/quote]

The Constitution does not require that.

This is a formal inquiry.  We'll get public hearings soon, and then we'll hear all the horrible details. [/quote]

It is tradition. Not voting means that the Dems have something to hide.[/quote]

Tradition? For both Nixon and Clinton, there were special counsel reports that had all of the information - artifacts, letters, depositions etc, bundled into a report. the current House is compiling that information now, since there is no special counsel and Barr didn't seek to recuse himself, despite the obvious conflicts. As such, they aren't in a position to "vote" on anything yet. if the facts of the depositions warrant it, then there will be a vote to formally open proceedings, at which point, there will be open hearings and evidence presented to support any articles of impeachment.

So no, at this juncture, it would be premature to vote on anything and thus your statement is fraught with fallacies.[/quote]

There was a full house vote in both Clinton and Nixon’s case. [/quote]
