this to me is the essence. to me it doesn't strengthen at the courts and the constitutional mechanics distract from uncovering wrongdoing. if i'm wrong on either of those two counts, then my arguments gets much weaker. But those are the premises I'm reasoning from.

Please interview Lawrence Tribe, Michael Stern or other experts on how impeachment breaks through some privileges.

Once you officially start on impeachment, the impeachment narrative will overwhelm much of the oversight stories and details. The news will not focus on the particular scandals ("Foreign money flowed into Trump Inauguration Fund"!) but the idea & suitability of impeachment.

I bet many Dem activists would slow up on impeachment demands if we felt that House Dems were really going hard to get testimony/documents. They need to stop playing nice.

If Dems think they have a strong case (they do) but don't do "impeachment hearings" the media will yawn. "Impeachment hearings" will be live, on every network, every time. That's not a distraction, that's the POINT of them!

Here’s my take: if we start impeachment hearings, it will be live on major tv all day, and ppl will get to hear the evidence. If we hold investigation hearings without impeachment, we’ll get 10 second clips on the nightly news.
