Pelosi says leadership won't pressure moderates to back impeachment
By Mike Lillis - 12/12/19 11:33 AM EST

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday that party leaders will apply no pressure on rank-and-file members to support the articles of impeachment against President Trump that are expected to hit the House floor next week.

While the House Democratic Caucus is overwhelmingly supportive of the impeachment effort, several moderate members are holding out ahead of the votes amid concerns that backing the effort might alienate voters in their battleground districts heading into the 2020 election.

Pelosi maintained on Thursday that the choice is entirely theirs to make.

So what was supposed to be a bipartisan vote for impeachment may well turn out to be a bipartisan vote against impeachment. I don't think that's what they were shooting for by a long shot.

Pelosi is a bad liar.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
