in its own committee before house votes could occur before christmas to impeach this president. chris, what she's saying here, that's not going to be delayed, that timeframe because she does not want to wait in court to get witnesses that could provide more details and democrats i've spoken to agree with her because they believe they have more than enough evidence to link the president to both withholding the security aid as well as this key meeting in exchange for this announcement by ukraine to look into the president's political rivals, help the president politically. they believe they have enough evidence to move forward and pelosi making clear here, this crucial moment of this inquiry that they're ready to move ahead. they will not get dragged down by this court fight, even though she claims they've not made a decision yet, by all indications, democrats are plowing ahead and trump could almost certainly be impeached before the end of the year, chris. >> there are calculations in this, right? there are matters of politics. how fast do you go, what does that cost you in terms of completeness? what does the timing do for you?
