Democrat House Leadership Rebel Against Nancy Pelosi, Demand Impeachment Inquiry

Nancy Pelosi has steadfastly stood against impeachment to this point.

As House Democrats foam at the mouth over impeachment, logical observers are asking what the point would be?

That boiled over Monday night in a meeting of Democrat House leadership.

During a closed door meeting, at least five members of her leadership team pushed her to bless an impeachment inquiry against Trump.

Several members of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's leadership team pressed her to begin an impeachment inquiry against President Trump in a series of Monday night meetings, according to multiple officials in the rooms - an effort the speaker rebuffed each time.

At least five members of Pelosi's leadership team - four of whom also sit on the House Judiciary Committee, with jurisdiction over impeachment - pressed Pelosi in a closed-door leadership meeting to allow the panel to start an inquiry, which they argued would help investigators attain documents and testimony that Trump has blocked.

She and House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer argued that such an inquiry would undercut other House investigations - or that the idea was not supported by other members in the caucus.
