Pelosi Democrats Changed House Rules on Impeachment on Day �Whistleblower� Complaint

[Cow Poke]

They can make their own rules at the start of the new congress, not later. The House was operating under rules last made by republicans when they were in the majority.

We now have the exact changes that were made from the previous version.

The most obvious change is that Pelosi moved the responsibility and control from the entire House of Representatives to the House Judiciary Committee.

Here is the old language:

The two most recent resolutions adopted by the House to authorize an impeachment investigation were taken up by unanimous consent at the request of the Rules Committee chair.15 Rather than convene a committee meeting to order the resolutions reported with a quorum present, the chair asked unanimous consent that the House discharge the Rules Committee and agree to the resolution. Both of these resolutions concerned federal judges, and they were agreed to without debate.

In the case of the most recent authorization of a presidential impeachment inquiry, the full House did debate the resolution.

The new version created by House Democrats and published on August 12th gives the authority and control to the House Judiciary Committee.

Um, this isn't the House Rules.

This is a pamphlet written by the Congressional Research Service (not "Pelosi's Democrats") explaining how the rules work to a lay audience.

The first clue that you're spewing forth ignorance is your goofy attempt to trivialize the report by calling it a "a pamphlet".

The second clue was your goofy claim that the CRS is explaining this "to a lay audience". The CRS is actually a legislative branch agency within the Library of Congress.
