NOWHERE does it say anything about a vote

what do you think "authorized by its chamber" means......

[PostmodernProphet]

Prove that that means a vote. I am sure a committee head or chair can authorize their own investigation.

sure they can......but they can't get a subpoena without authorization of the chamber......do you know what the chamber of the House is?......

[PostmodernProphet]

They can inquire; but it is NOT an "impeachment inquiry" without a vote?

they can call it an impeachment inquiry......they can call it the SuperBowl........however, they cannot issue subpoenas or demand documents.......

Are you suggesting the house intelligence committee cannot issue subpoenas regarding anything related to the intelligence agencies, without a full House vote?

If so you are stupid!

Agreed. As spelled out in Trumps legal advisor's letter to Pelosi:

What do you think must be authorized by its chamber means???

As announced in Wilkinson v. United States,[7] a Congressional committee must meet three requirements for its subpoenas to be "legally sufficient." First, the committee's investigation of the broad subject area must be authorized by its chamber; second, the investigation must pursue "a valid legislative purpose" but does not need to involve legislation and does not need to specify the ultimate intent of Congress; and third, the specific inquiries must be pertinent to the subject matter area that has been authorized for investigation.

[PostmodernProphet]

False, The power of the house to issue subpoenas does not come from the fact of it being voted on as an impeachment investigation. Silly. If you’re truly a lawyer you know better than that.

no subpoenas without the authorization by the chamber.......show us the authorization issued by the chamber......YOU provided the citation......

Right and the House intelligence committee is so authorized, they were authorized when the committee was formed. Stupid if you think they are not authorized in the broad category of intelligence.

Are you suggesting the house intelligence committee was not authorized to issue subpoenas on intelligence? That’s a pretty stupid thing to claim.

[PostmodernProphet]

How so fool?

if you had bothered to read #82 you wouldn't have to ask......SF owned you......

So you really don't know what "authorized by its chamber" means; I can't say I am surprised. It is apparent you don't know much of anything at all. You're not a lawyer; you're a lying, dishonest partisan hack.

Who authorized them?

[PostmodernProphet]

of course they cannot.......and the chamber HAS authorized them under the rules set down for that standing committee.......are you pretending impeachment is an issue for a standing committee?......
