House Democrats released their "Impeachment resolution" today, which purports to lay out fair rules involving the ongoing "Impeachment inquiry." The weird thing is seeing some "Conservatives" run to Twitter to frame this move by Democrats as calling a Republican bluff.
Sean Davis breaks down some of the most important parts, not the least of which is that this isn't even an actual impeachment resolution.
Pelosi's resolution references "The existing House of Representatives inquiry," but no such House of Representatives investigation exists, because the House of Representatives never authorized one.
House impeachment resolution section on transcripts: https://t.
The resolution gives him sole authority to release transcripts.
Maybe he's giving subpoena power to the minority party like Republicans did during the Clinton impeachment investigation? Nope.
Nearly every single anti-transparency dynamic Republicans have pointed out still exists, just with prettier language around it.
