    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.

    Who says it requires a vote? That’s stupid. There is no way that says you must vote to proceed on investigating impeachable acts.

    She can call for it all day long. They can investigate it all day long. It won’t actually be an impeachment until they vote to impeach the president.

    if you want to have an impeachment inquiry, have the vote for it. otherwise, stfu.

    democrats are all talk. once again, you are pussies that can't stand by your convictions. If you believe in it, put it to a vote. We're waiting.

    If it isn't a formal investigation, then they have no right to issue subpoenas

    It is a formal investigation, no matter how you try to spin it. All you are doing is making excuses and a smoke screen.
