Rachael Bade: Pelosi Is Tamping Down Impeachment Calls Because She Doesn’t Want to Overplay Her Cards
‘We didn’t hear a lot of calls for impeachment following these indictments of Papadopoulos’
RUSH EXCERPT:
BADE: "It was particularly surprising I think the Democratic reaction. And it’s kind of muted. We didn’t hear a lot of calls for impeachment following these indictments of Papadopoulos... And it sounds like Nancy Pelosi has been doing her best behind closed doors to tamp this down and — because she doesn’t want to overplay her cards here.
Republicans — I think just yesterday we saw conservatives drop a bill calling for Mueller to step aside. And that leads me to one thing we’re going to be watching in the coming weeks is, does Congress move to try to protect Mueller right now? The answer is no, even though they have bipartisan legislation in the Senate that would make sure that the president cannot get rid of Mueller."
