House Democrats are chasing down several new leads generated by Wednesday's public hearing with former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, and that could prompt them to seek testimony from new witnesses as they continue their effort to investigate President Trump's finances and the hush-money payments Cohen orchestrated.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings, D-Md., made it clear after the hearing that Democrats were still trying to sift through what they heard from Cohen, who will begin a prison sentence in May.

"The question becomes where we go from here?" Cummings said after the hearing. "Well, we're going to study our testimony and figure out what we've got there."

But Cummings made it clear there will be next steps. "This is not the end of the process, but the beginning," Cummings said.

Democrats so far have signaled they are looking at at least five different ways to follow up.

We must keep looking for more witches to burn!

 Tell me, what do you do with witches?
- Burn them!
- And what do you burn, apart from witches?
- More witches! - Wood!
- So why do witches burn?
- 'Cause they're made of wood? - Good!
- How do we tell if she is made of wood? - Build a bridge out of her.
- But can you not also make bridges out of stone?
- Oh, yeah.
- Does wood sink in water?
- No, it floats. - Throw her into the pond!
- What also floats in water?
- Bread. - Apples.
- Very small rocks. - Cider! Great gravy.
- Cherries. Mud. - Churches.
- Lead. - A duck!
- Exactly.

It's not Ocasio's socialism that's hurting the left right now. It's this desperate never ending witch hunt against Trump. Pray they continue to show themselves as impotent idiots until 2020. That'll get Trump another win for sure.
