It’s called strategy, Lisa. Something you wouldn’t understand. Since the Articles were passed, several more emails have come to light, showing Trump’s complicity and engineering of his crimes, and Bolton has volunteered to testify if subpoenaed. If they had been sent in December, Moscow Mitch would have dispatched them and buried them and the bodies (of evidence) would remain hidden. Why rush to judgement and burial of the case? Sometimes it takes awhile for the bodies to float to the surface.
An unwanted and desperate strategy for a prosecutor facing a jury and defendant plotting trial strategy to ensure the defendant is found “not guilty” before the trial even starts.
So, Lisa is upset that the articles are slow to arrive in the Senate, but not upset that everything that arrives in the Senate gets pigeon-holed by Moscow Mitch? She continues to maintain her record of pure hypocrisy.
Lisa, I give you credit for showing us how the voices inside your head talk to you and talk you into drawing things. But you need to go back to taking your medication. What you are seeing is not what the rest of us experience.
Nancy is usually a shrewd and canny political poker player, but in pursing this impeachment inquiry she let her temper get the better of her and openly declared that she was trying to draw to an inside straight. Worse, she was publicly shown to have failed in that draw. Now she finds herself pursuing a bluff after all her cards are visible. Regardless of which party wins control of the House in 2020, I predict that Nancy’s reign as Speaker thereafter is done.
If you want to disagree with Pelosi’s reasons for stalling, then say so and make a comic about that, but your comic implying that Pelosi is just being slow without cause. Don’t lie to your readers, you know exactly why Pelosi is stalling.
That’s still faster than Moscow Mitch’s speed in bringing “QUALIFIED” or “WELL QUALIFIED” judicial nominees from Obama to a vote. Now he’s a jackrabbit in getting “NOT qualified” nominees put forward under Trump. Or is there another word after jack?

Poor repubs are champing at the bit to automatically exonerate the Rump before more damning evidence shows up. I hope it’s driving them (more) crazy.

She needs to hurry up so the Republicans can get on with refusing to do their sworn duty. Right, Lisa?

Mitch wants the impeachment handled in the same way he handled Merrick Garland’s nomination… maybe Nancy should wait for a new Senate?

Wouldn’t want to have a fair trial, now would we?

If a Democrat does something, it’s just wrong! If the Democrat then does the opposite, that’s just wrong too!
That’s logic!

Look at the ‘Mitch’ that Nancy is leaving behind her.

If only the “Republicans” were as loyal to their country as they are to their unconstitutional anti-democracy beliefs …

You know #moscowmitch is not planning a fair trial so why give him the satisfaction of not doing his job. Again.

Get him to give his State of the Union address before exoneration by a partisan senate. . .⌛

First things first; McConnell needs to deal with the hundreds of bills he is sitting on.

Even some Dem Senators are telling her to get moving.

Yes, Lisa. Nancy is a female so she must march to the music of Moscow Mitch!

If Moscow Mitch has no intention of holding a real trial shouldn’t the Democrats refuse to participate?

Pelosi should afford Moscow Mitch the same courtesy and expediency that Mitch afforded Judge Garland.

When McConnell delays and and obstructs it is considered magnificent strategy from a master of senate procedures, but when a woman does it…..
