Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), a lawyer, makes an excellent point. On Thursday afternoon, he posted the following tweet:
Dems said impeachment was URGENT. Now they don’t want to have a trial, because they have no evidence. In real world, if prosecution doesn’t proceed with case, it gets dismissed. So on Monday, I will introduce measure to dismiss this bogus impeachment for lack of prosecution. This will expose Dems’ circus for what it is: a fake impeachment, abuse of the Constitution, based on no evidence. If Dems won’t proceed with trial, bogus articles should be dismissed and @realDonaldTrump fully cleared.
The House' jurisdiction over the matter ended with the vote.
Jurisdiction is entirely in the hands of the Senate now.
The Senate is politely waiting for the House to name the managers, but there is nothing that forces the Senate to abide by this rule.
The Senate can immediately initiate the trial proceedings, request the articles and managers, and move forward, whether Pelosi likes it or not.
Dems in the House refused to challenge executive privilege in court.
McConnell will not bother trying.
Nancy blew it.
