The House impeachment process generally proceeds in three phases: (1) initiation of the impeachment process; (2) Judiciary Committee investigation (Inquiry), hearings, and markup of articles of impeachment; and (3) full House consideration of the articles of impeachment.
If the committee determines that impeachment is warranted, it will markup articles of impeachment using the same procedures followed for the markup of other legislation. If the Judiciary Committee reports a resolution impeaching a federal officer, that resolution qualifies for privileged consideration on the House floor.
If the House approves the impeachment resolution, it will appoint managers to present and argue its case in front of the Senate.
Schiff and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence is conducting itself outside the bounds of the constitution, the law, and the established procedures for the impeachment process. (The impeachment inquiry was never supposed to be held in secret.)
As long as Schiff continues with his Machiavellian political game and runs his inquiry in secret hearings and leaks selected, highly prejudicial information to the media, he is going to play hell bringing legitimate grounds for articles of impeachment to the full House floor. Wh**ever that sleazy SOB comes up with, he'd better have sufficient proof of impeachable offenses, or he's going to eat s**t when the full house goes for the v**e. Schiff's subterfuge will never make it to the senate.
All past impeachment proceedings were conducted in full view of the American people. Neither Johnson, Nixon or Clinton were prohibited from exercising their constitutional rights to actively and aggressively engage their defense with all the constitutional and legal means available to them.
The United States of America is OUR country, it does not belong to the House of Representatives, or to the government in general, and it certainly is not the property of an insane pencil neck from California.

Oh, so your argument is that you want them to do it the way it is generally done? They will do it the best way they know how that results in the POS being impeached! Thanks anyway!
