House Speaker Nancy Pelosi must understand that this is the time. The time is now. There is no more waiting. We must act and unfortunately, the only way “we” can act in our representative democracy is through her, our duly expected representative. I am begging her to begin impeachment proceedings. I am also promising that I will work tirelessly to ensure her defeat as my representative if she doesn’t. I’ve never felt anything but admiration and even a little adoration for the congresswoman. But I’ve reached my limit. The testimony from Mueller this week, while saying nothing new, nonetheless illustrated how deeply flawed the “wait and see” strategy on impeachment is. The more these facts are aired, the more they are said out loud and in public, the more the record is set straight and not twisted by the lying Republicans, the better. Pelosi must listen to her constituents and take action. There are no more excuses. There is nothing more to learn. Get this lunatic out of the Oval Office and do it by exposing him to the weeks-long if not months-long process of impeachment. We cannot survive timidity. It may already, in fact, be too late.

Note from KBJ: Shorter David Ralston: "I hate Donald Trump! Therefore, he must be impeached!" And Trump is the "lunatic."
