Meanwhile Sargent too seems to be backing off impeachment. Pelosi seems to be successfully editing impeachment out of the English language at least in the MSM.
He did do an interview with Schiff but failed to ask him about impeachment when I asked his response was ‘I know he doesn’t support it’-ok so that’s it? You don’t push him to defend this in wake of Trump telling us he’s learned nothing-except that he really can shoot someone on 5th Avenue?-no attempt to persuade just say blandly ‘He doesn’t’ support it so why ask him?’
I notice that MIka didn't even ask Pelosi a single impeachment question. Pelosi is trying to edit impeachment out of the English language

When they tell us "go win the Senate!" do Democratic chieftains understand that the message is now landing in an increasingly depressed base that sees – every single day – that winning the House only yielded a cowardly refusal to use Constitutional power against Trump?

This is the show Pelosi has sold you. The House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Trump’s accountants, Mazars, and bank, Deutche Bank. There are no Executive Privilege or Rule 6e issues. You’ve been gaslighted. https://t.co/5Ewtfvh3NZ

This is what we have to do my Friends and Fellow Resistors push the case for impeachment with great vigilance-like John Oliver's 20 minute monologue https://t.co/cmhDrq7xsi

John Oliver: “I can’t guarantee that impeachment will work out the way that you want it to…but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing. Because if nothing else, we’d be standing by the basic, fundamental principle that nobody is above the law.” https://t.co/gWvysVVyaE

With panels of MSMers furrowing their brows 'Sure it's offensive sure it's a lie but WILL IT WORK? What's the strategy behind it?'

2. By the way Jason this gets to yet another bone that needs to be picked-the MSM totally buried Schiff's hearings I was shocked even @maddow @MaddowBlog said NOTHING about it

So I turned on Stephanopoulos and in 1 short paragraph Trump packed 5 different lies: 'No obstruction, no collusion, made up charges by 18 angry Democrats, they're the ones who should be in jail' https://t.co/8Nhip9F9v4

3. But when you hear that Baquet is now boycotting Maddow's show this gives Andrew Lack leverage against her. Lack hates the liberal coverage but it's been knocking the ratings out of the park. But with NYT reporters avoiding her Lack has a crutch to use against her

3. On the one hand while it's not true the Dems are doing NOTHING they aren't doing nearly enough. OTOH they did do a few more things this week and the MSM-including Maddow sad to say-largely ignored them

This phrasing of the impeachment inquiry question is better than most but the end is wrong – an impeachment inquiry would determine whether the House would refer impeachment to the Senate to consider whether Trump should be removed from office. pic.twitter.com/afaBtEtQaq

2. As to why this might be: Dean Paquet's NYT is now telling its reporters not to go on her. Is she being pushed not to discuss impeachment anymore? I'd hate to imagine Maddow buckling to pressure

I've noticed that even MSNBC has scaled back impeachment talk the last week. Even the hearings weren't discussed much. I was shocked Maddow had nothing on Schiff's public hearing on collusion
