Let\u2019s get back to the phones. Westin in Billings, Montana. Great to have you. What\u2019s the weather like in Billings, Montana, today?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It\u2019s actually beautiful. It\u2019s 72 today, sunny, very warm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-324593\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-100719-Pelosi-Schiff.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-100719-Pelosi-Schiff.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/APP-100719-Pelosi-Schiff-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Cool. Way to go. Way to go. Okay, great. I watched a lot of TV shows from Montana. Looks like it\u2019s winter there.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Actually, in the next few days it\u2019s gonna start snowing and be 29 degrees. So yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, I love it. I absolutely love it. Okay. Great. I\u2019m glad you called. What\u2019s up?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: So my question is, &#8220;Does Nancy Pelosi actually put the impeachment inquiry to a full vote, or is she just hoping for a way out of it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I think that she\u2019s ultimately gonna have to do that to give this thing any life or legs. They\u2019re trying to get as much life out of this now without doing that. Look, I don\u2019t know how to tell you. I could send you to Andy McCarthy\u2019s article on Saturday in National Review &#8212; he\u2019s written about this twice &#8212; that all of this is nothing but a well-written soap opera, that there isn\u2019t any impeachment yet. There\u2019s just&#8230; The way to look at what\u2019s going on here is the convening of a grand jury. That doesn\u2019t mean anything.<\/p>\n<p>That just signals the beginning of an investigation, taking testimony and all that &#8212; and there aren\u2019t any subpoenas yet even though the media\u2019s calling them that. They\u2019re just letters that request voluntary appearances, and there will not be an official impeachment until she calls this vote that you are talking about: A full vote on the floor of the House. You know, you don\u2019t do a vote until you know you\u2019ve got the votes. But she doesn\u2019t really want to do this yet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (chuckling)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: She wants to get as much mileage out of the illusion as she can. She\u2019s got her left-wing base breathing down her neck. She\u2019s got donors, these wacko-leftist donors that are breathing fire at her. She\u2019s got to keep them at bay, because once she calls that vote, then politically, there\u2019s no turning back. They have to do it. They have to come up with the articles of impeachment, which they\u2019re working on. I have no doubt they\u2019re preparing them now, which is the case that will be made during the trial at the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>But so far, none of that has officially happened.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I could send you to Andy McCarthy&#039;s article on Saturday in National Review &#8212; he&#039;s written about this twice &#8212; that all of this is nothing but a well-written soap opera.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":324598,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
