Resolution that has will pick up speed. I think there is two aspects to whose. One is the reaffirming that the impeachment inquiry, and is been going on for the last month, is the legitimate inquiry. And it has been moving along. In the second aspect of whose is setting up procedures rules and really a framework, and the next phase of whose inquiry which will be in the public setting. Think about how the last three or four weeks have been all behind closed doors. The democrats and republicans taking depositions privately in the secure spectrum. Whose will start to shift into the public setting and into public hearings is the democratic his and nancy pelosi want to establish sort of the ground rules for senate how all of whose will unfold. Uses of the timing of whose announcement and to get whose resolution by Democratic Leaders and then on the house floor on thursday. Well, republicans in the white house have been complaining about process. So there is an appearance that whose was in response to some of that gop criticism that republicans have been complaining about very secretive process and the public should be you know, include into what was happening in the depositions behind closed doors. However, if yes nancy pelosi and the leadership on the democratic side, they are staying but whose resolution was need it to sort of lay out these rules for the next phase of whose investigation which will be in the public setting led by the Intelligence Committee and its chairman adam shift, and we have had three committees participating in the closeddoor session. But it looks like schiff will be taking the lead in the Public Session that will allow for nancy pelosi, and the Democratic Leadership to control that environment much more tightly and it means fewer lawmakers will be involved at least in the ukraine portion of the easement inquiry and so that its fun to and adam shift obviously is the close ally in a close ally of nancy pelosi.

The white house has been highly critical of the entire process and highly clinical of whose resolution in the process going forward. The president himself obviously called whose a witchhunt. In an illegitimate sham of an investigation. We are seeing similar language from the valleys on capitol hill including Kevin Mccarthy who specifically has been referring to whose is a soviet style interrogation process. So i dont expect the criticism to let up.

While we have been mostly in the dark aside from a few selective leaks, it will be fascinating when whose process has has into the public sphere, one thing i will note, a part of the ground rules for each of these public hearings, will allow for 45 minutes for a democratic counsel to ask questions of the witness and then 45 minutes of uninterrupted, for the republican staff counsel to question the witnesses. And then after that total 90 minutes, it was shipped to the lawmaker portion. Some were going to see professionals questioning these witnesses and democrats want to make sure that process allows them to get is monday facts out to the public is possible. The resolution on thursday as a proxy vote for impeachment comedy thing this move by democrats will move those House Democratic senators because the ones on the defense of impeachment or moderate republicans . I think there will be a handful who will peel off and break ranks with nancy pelosi in the leadership, there are about six democrats, vulnerable swing democrats who flips geo go gop.
