Some legal scholars have suggested she could consider refusing to transmit articles of impeachment to the Senate.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi refused to commit Wednesday to delivering articles of impeachment to the Senate, citing concerns about an unfair trial on removing President Donald Trump from office.
Senior Democratic aides said the House was “very unlikely” to take the steps necessary to send the articles to the Senate until at least early January, a delay of at least two weeks and perhaps longer.

WNU Editor: I can see it now. Republican Senators being told what to do by the House Speaker. Here is an easy prediction. It is not going to happen. House Speaker Pelosi and her allies think they have leverage .... they do not.

Nancy and the Giant Impeach.
Keep Trump on edge for a bit longer. Meanwhile start impeachment proceeding regarding Emoluments. That shouldn't take more than a month to put together and should go first to the Senate. Financial data proving the case should eliminate ifs and buts. It would be black and white.
They know they don't have the votes in the Senate to actually remove Trump from office, so they're going to try to drag it out as long as they can, hoping to create conditions by which they can succeed. Meanwhile, the next banking crash, promising to be even worse than that of 2008, is rushing in much faster than the next election...
Carl,
Where are you getting the banking crash from? If you read Zerohedge, it is always gloom and doom.
Maybe you are talking about the Financial Instability Hypothesis? There is certainly a misallocation of resources. People are getting absolutely worthless degrees at universities while real jobs go begging. This is leading in part to crushing student debt. I am not seeing another housing crisis, but I do think the stock market is over valued. I think stock market value should be based on production and productivity and nothing else.
Bob. Does Trump look like he is wilting or on edge to you?
To my mind it’s the Dems who look and act completely unhinged. Asserting the ludicrous, denying the obvious and lying compulsively. I’d say “irony” but the word is too tired. The rank hypocrisy and bald faced lying is annoying American voters a great deal.
11/3/20 cant happen soon enough.
10 months 2 weeks to go until the election and Democrats are going through with impeachment after investigating for 4 years and finding nothing?
Mr. Kama Sutra Flexible did not give Ukraine anti-tank missiles are anything pointy. He gave them blankets and wampum. The Ukrainians would be entirely justified to inspect the blankets for bio-weapons.
