WASHINGTON - On Monday evening, Nancy Pelosi set about writing one of the most important speeches of her long political career, about her decision to open an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.
“She wrote the first draft of her speech that she would give Tuesday,” then left it behind, said a source familiar with what happened.In announcing the formal start of the impeachment inquiry, Pelosi was reversing months of resistance to liberals inside her party because of the potential impact on Democratic candidates in the 2020 elections.
While she thought things over, Pelosi was moving around. She did not go home to California, but spoke at NPR journalist Cokie Roberts’ funeral on Saturday in Washington, flew to South Carolina on Sunday, returned to Washington late Sunday night and made a quick trip to New York on Monday. The group was giving Pelosi a “heads up” that they were going to be posting the piece that evening. She praised them for making national security the central part of their argument.
