Nothing Nancy Pelosi has said precludes a broader impeachment inquiry, but that’s a decision she is clearly determined to delay
Since her big announcement of an impeachment inquiry yesterday, Pelosi has wanted to keep the focus on the Ukraine scandal.
So for the time being, Jerrold Nadler’s Judiciary Committee will be on hold, except for its ongoing investigations of the president and his administration. Pelosi did hold open the possibility that previous examples of the president’s “lawlessness” could be the subject of impeachment articles if the House went in that direction, as many of those who supported impeachment before the Ukraine scandal broke into public view are insisting upon.
Even as House Republicans attacked her on the subject, Pelosi did not address repeated GOP complaints that she was initiating impeachment proceedings without first securing a formal House resolution. All in all, it’s obvious she wants to keep the heat on Trump & Co. for the Ukraine scandal, and play it as it lays as events unfold. Nothing she’s said precludes a broader impeachment inquiry, but clearly, that’s a decision she is determined to delay.
