Wow, Adam Schiff is really putting the screws to Witnesses in his secret interrogation room!
Check out this excerpt from a leaked transcript.
www.washingtonexaminer.com...
mong other things, it showed how Schiff, as a powerful chairman in charge of impeachment, pursues his theory of the case even when a witness gives testimony that does not support it.

It's simply amazing how closely that aligns with the White House's talking points memo, ain't it?
My god, please give us an eyeroll emote.
Speaker Pelosi announced that leadership did not yet intend to not have a vote on impeachment and that they are “not here to call bluffs. We’re here to find the truth, to uphold the Constitution of the United States. This is not a game for us.”
"There is no requirement that we have a vote. So at this time, we will not be having a vote," Pelosi told reporters on Capitol Hill after a brief closed-door Democratic caucus meeting. "And I’m very pleased with the thoughtfulness of our caucus in terms of being supportive of the path that we are on in terms of fairness, in terms of seeking the truth, in terms of upholding the Constitution of the United States."
"There's no requirement that we have a vote, and so at this time we will not be having a vote," Pelosi said. "We're not here to call bluffs -- we're here to find the truth, to uphold the Constitution of the United States. This is not a game for us. This is deadly serious."
BTW, does anyone feel it is right for the house to have a perpetual impeachment inquiry that changes their focus on what they want to impeach him on over and over in a look squirrel situation?

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will hold off on calling a full House vote for now to authorize a formal impeachment inquiry, a congressional aide confirms to CNN.
Multiple sources told CNN that there were disagreements among Pelosi’s team during the closed door meeting and among key committee chairs about whether to hold an impeachment inquiry vote — one reason why there will not be a vote as of now, multiple sources told CNN.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Tuesday she will not stage a vote on the House floor to officially launch an impeachment inquiry into President Trump.
"There's no requirement that we have a vote, and so at this time we will not be having a vote," Pelosi told reporters during a last-minute press briefing in the Capitol.

That is an inanely long way of admitting your OP is BS.
Pelosi never said ""There is no "official" impeachment inquiry going on currently."
She said they are not going to vote on it. They don't have to.
Your entire OP is claiming Nancy Pelosi as your source.
Your claim is that there has to be a vote to investigate the President.
Nancy Pelosi clearly says that there does not have to be a vote to investigate the President.
So, either Nancy is lying, and your OP is meaningless, or you're lying and your source denies your statement. Take your pick.

She said they are not going to vote on it. They don't have to.
and without that vote it is not official
sorry we dont see eye to eye on this
The other thing: You constructed a FAKE NEWS Op claiming Pelosi said something she didn't. That crap makes it hard to respond to you as if you have an honest disagreement. you chose to fully MAKE CRAP UP.

As far as the rest of the BS and fake transcripts by the Washington Times, who once claimed the National Teachers Association was behind the World Trade Towers Bombing, all transcripts will be entered into record if/when a vote is held on articles of impeachment and it is sent to the Senate.
