    Okay, a majority of the House of Representative is now behind impeachment. Question now is how it'll be executed. And, after that, whether McConnell will allow a Senate vote.https://twitter.com/keithboykin/status/1176962916324696070 …

    And now we're at 219 votes for impeachment. The @NBCNews list also does not include Lucy McBath, who is on the Politico list. https://twitter.com/keithboykin/status/1176960868359266304 …

        how does that work with Roberts being in charge of impeachment hearings

        He would preside over the Senate trial, not the hearings.

        Does he have a choice on whether the Senate takes up a Bill of Impeachment or not? I'd be surprised if he does.

        I'm pretty sure he can not allow it to come up. I'd bet he'd want to avoid at all costs the embarrassment of forcing each Senator to go on record with a vote.

        I'm not sure it's something he can stop. He can probably try and delay it, but that will put him up against the Supreme Court as well as the House.

        First question is whether they'll have a floor vote to open an impeachment inquiry to give committees the formal authority they need to conduct investigations.

        "In favor of an inquiry" != "in favor of impeachment" That said, i don't think they would come out for an inquiry without thinking it was pretty likely they would eventually be pro impeachment.

        Is it really a question for McConnell? Really. The white senior senator from Kentucky who’s only flappability is all that extra skin on his neck?

        I don’t think McConnell has discretion in allowing a vote. It is a trial.

        A trial presided by Roberts, not McConnell
