House Democrats of all stripes say the window for launching impeachment proceedings against President Trump is quickly closing.
Heading into the long August recess, Democratic leaders resisted efforts to initiate a formal impeachment inquiry, frustrating liberals who say Robert Mueller's report on presidential obstruction — accentuated by the former special counsel's testimony before Congress on Wednesday — provides ample reason to begin the process.
But those progressive lawmakers are hoping Mueller's remarks will sink in with voters over the six-week summer break, nudging more House Democrats to endorse impeachment when Congress returns to Washington in September — and force leadership to take it up. To wait much longer, they warn, will be too late.
