I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop on that. What is going on? Is that still being worked on? Is that our last hope?

Maybe the bill is to subpoena Trump's tax returns.

(24,738 posts)3. See said it is about
Trump's Russia connections.
Maybe she is risking imprisonment for leaking. A true American patriot. See if you can find anything online about it and report back.

(11,996 posts)9. From Water's previous statements, guess this is her end game...
WATERS: Well, heres what Im trying to get to. If we discover that Donald Trump or his advocates played a role in helping to devise strategy, if they are the ones who came up with Crooked Hillary, if they are the ones who came up with shes ill, somethings wrong with her energy, and the way that he basically described her in the campaign, I think that is something that would put the question squarely on the table whether or not he should be impeached.
WATERS: Well I think at the point that investigations discover and can confirm and document any of that that they had a role in helping to strategize, they had a role in attempting to determine the outcome that in many ways that they used the information that they got from DNC when they hacked into our e-mails, et cetera, if that was used against Hillary Clinton in some ways, yes, I think thats impeachable.
