To navigate impeachment, Democrats need a point person with savvy and credibility to direct political and legal strategy and serve as the face of the effort. That person is probably not a current member of Congress.
Two possible candidates for a role like this include: @SallyQYates and @PreetBharara

Totally agree, I don't believe the White House has absorbed the gravity of their situation yet.
It's a smart idea for them except that the limits are too short. I'd peg it at 10 years House or 18 years Senate. Fresh blood is not a bad idea after someone's had a job for that long, but you need to give them time to settle and develop real expertise.
The bots are trying, but all I see is people dunking on him.
Some people thought his catastrophic TV appearances made Trump and everyone else look less crazy.
Or something. There was a wrestling analogy.
It didn't make much sense to me.
I used to love reading stuff like this, but the mueller investigation fizzling out the way it did and the Trump administration just refusing to comply with subpeona's and Barr shutting down all the investigations basically broke me, so i'm not getting my hopes up for anything.
It is nice to see the inquiry finally start though, i'll take whatever positive news we can get.

The whistleblowing was just five tweets from Jacob's back yard in Paris, Tangiers, Honolulu, and Kyiv, Ukraine.
The Mueller report is still alive and kicking thanks to this news.
It contains evidence of criminal activity by the President. The impeachment hearings will look into each of those events. They will interview people who will there and subpoena if they have to get it.
We can stop pretending the Mueller report was a bust now.
It's amazing, Rudy could have just laid low, gone to Yankees games, cheated on his wives and died a hero. Dude would have had an airport named after him.
Hubris is a hell of a drug.

Redacted whistleblower report? Guess those of us fretting about how fast the WH rolled over on impeachment just got a reprieve.
lol, redacted.
lol, redacted.
Ya' die an Ariel, or live long enough to see yourself become an Ursula
It's a smart point imo. The other issue I have is that they need to highlight the members who are better at questioning in hearings and make sure that dumbass wannabe TV lawyer #7 doesn't waste their time grandstanding. It killed the Kavanaugh and Mueller hearings.
redacted in their dreams. They're in for a hell of a lot of trouble if that's what they try to do.
of course, two people who have been fired by Trump. What a dumb idea.
It's really sad that half of Republicans are firmly in the camp of, "Do illegal stuff and tarnish the Office, it's all fine with me." Of course people are partisan, I get that, but ffs there is no bottom for these people.
This is a fundamental shift in the narrative for the public at large.
He dun fucked up.
So Fox is reporting that the WH is going to dox the whistleblower tonight? At least with regards to their political affiliation or donations. Classy.
Didn't Lovett make fun of people wanting a reality-TV style show-down?
Like, at least those two are qualified, but I have no idea how they'd pass mustard to actually do the work.
The thing is, this ya nothing to do with Trumps justice department correct?
So it's more difficult to diiddle with
Bharara coming back for the last 3 episodes after being put on a bus in Season 1 would be so Uncle Benjen.
Oof. Warren or San...
You know what, Warren is gonna have to beat Biden early to cut into this lead. Getting sick of acting like Sanders has a chance. He doesn't.
Fantastic. Good luck convincing people the person you appointed had a political bias.
Clinton won GA like 72-28 or something in 2016. Major uphill sledding for progressives down here.
Only redaction should be the whistleblower's name or identifying information. That's it. Of course they'll try to redact anything but.
The goal for Warren is to at least get 30-40% here.
Not surprised at the GA poll and I expect similar in other Southern states like Mississippi and Alabama as well.
I am not sure how all this Ukrainegate helps or hurts Biden in the 2020 election. I personally feel this is a liability but then again I always felt he was a liability. But this whole Ukrainegate thing is also helping him.. his name is getting coverage and in many ways he is being seen as the victim in all this (ie. the person on the right side of Trump's abuse of power). But there are enough question marks around this Ukraine thing that it muddies the water around Biden and his whole angle in this election is his squeaky clean image versus Trump the corrupt demagogue.

I think that short term it helps him.
Listening to the news today, you'd think the primary was already over and Biden is our nominee.
Not going to happen. Far too many people hate Trump in Congress and you don't run for office if you don't like grandstanding every so often. Their best chance would be for Schiff, Lewis, and Nadler as committee chairs to do group press conferences regularly as both an official summary and a way to play damage control against the republicans.
Honestly I know it helps Biden because no one is talking about some stupid shit that he said in regards to his campaign and candidacy.
It's less about "progressive," of which Hillary was one, and more about connecting with voters of color.
Its a shame. I feel its Hillary all over again where the concept of electability is the main draw and he is far from the best candidate besides name recognition.
Amazing that these, ahem, sources say that Bolton and Mulvaney are totes innocent while Rudy was doing all of the #crimes.
if that's the issue then it won't be a problem if he loses Iowa or NH, but I feel like that's not the whole reason unfortunately
Nah, this shit can go right in the trash where it belongs.
Joe Biden was part of an INTERNATIONAL action to remove a corrupt prosecutor from office. Implying anything else is a baseless smear.
This place should be better than BUT HER EMAILS. And worrying that it might make Biden look sympathetic is not a good look, for you or for anyone. It needs to be called out for what it is.

Bolton is smart enough to not get caught to in blatantly illegal shit. He loves to dabble on the fringes
Some people under that hashtag were saying Biden needed to be impeached.
