I am going to keep saying this until the Democrats do it.

Open hearings, open hearings, open hearings.

1. Agreed.

Get everything out in the open.

[elleng]

2. Yes. Without something to watch, there's nothing for the public to hang onto.

Evidence is necessary, so the search and demands for such are important, so what Congress is doing now is critical. It's complicated, so it appears we don't know what we're doing.

3. I'm going to keep saying it with you.

4. The hell with hearings...

... just vote to impeach. There is no requirement to have hearings before the vote. We all know that Trump (like all Rethugs) is a criminal. Just vote him out.

6. No

Sorry, I want him destroyed full stop!

[sharedvalues]

7. Yes. This would be playing into GOP hands

Republicans best case scenario right now: quick impeachment vote, no hearings.
They will then kill it in the Senate and we will have no recourse.

What is better for the country: Long, long, public, open impeachment hearings, with a vote coming months from now.

[Bev54]

5. I agree!

We don't need to call it impeachment and while I realize the staff are interviewing people behind the scenes we need to get some public hearings going. Give the public something and start messaging that it will happen, people are getting impatient.
