Pelosi’s Impeachment Dilemma
Kimberley A. Strassel May 23, 2019

The progressives in her party are lining up to demand an impeachment spectacle. They hail from uber-liberal districts, their constituents want Trump’s scalp, and they fear inaction will earn them a primary challenge. Even Mrs. Pelosi’s wingmen—those who’ve had her fake-impeachment back—are starting to break. The Washington Post reports that Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler is arguing for a formal impeachment inquiry, as are “five members of Pelosi’s leadership team.”

Mr. Beyer surprised nobody when he became the first member of Virginia’s delegation to call publicly for formal proceedings, joining at least two dozen other House Democrats. Mr. Beyer represents Virginia’s Eighth district, the most liberal in the state, encompassing the Washington suburbs of Alexandria and Arlington. Mr. Beyer won 63% of the general-election vote in 2014, 68% in 2016, and 76% in 2018. Until recently he had been flanking Mrs. Pelosi, and he was on record saying that any impeachment inquiry must have bipartisan support.

@truth_seeker posted a speech by Kimberly Strassel the other day, and I listened to it.  I didn't know she lives in Wasilla, AL.  She seems to think that living in the DC/NYC bubble makes it hard to be a good reporter.  She's a great one.
