The thread has generated not just a massive response, but a genuine question — Does Pelosi know something that has not yet become public? The arrest of Stone, following the months Paul Manafort has spent wearing orange, shows that the special counsel is not afraid to go after strategists who have been at the core of the Republican Party for decades. And the revelations from those indictments show that Trump had the motive (the “Moscow Project”) and the means (Stone, Manafort, Cambridge Analytica, and many others) to conduct a conspiracy with Russia aimed at subverting an American election.

Pelosi’s willingness to go straight at Trump on this issue may indicate that she has even more evidence. It certainly indicates that she has more guts. And it absolutely informs Trump that the days of being able to count on the House to provide comforting statements about his Russia connections are absolutely over.

It is fairly obvious that Pelosi thinks Trump has broken his oath of office and should face impeachment.

The question is when?

If that's true. If Trump is the monster you seem to believe, what is she waiting for?

IF she has impeachable evidence and is sitting on it, than she how can she not impeach him, tomorrow? 

I think the reality is she just wants to keep her side agitated and angry and this is just manipulating her base.  The contents of the Stone indictment has to be a disappointment to her, so this sort of pandering keeps people from looking at it too closely.  Move on to the next shiny object (Trump mentioned the possibility of leaving NATO!)

I accidentally came upon this news story from Aug 2016

Grotesque Trump ally Roger Stone pipes up with yet another 'Hillary Clinton killed someone' story

2016-08-11

All of conservatism is at this point one interconnected conspiracy theory, part 200-ish :

Seth Rich, a 27-year-old data analyst at the DNC, was shot and killed early one Sunday morning last month in what police say was robbery gone wrong. He was killed while walking home in a Washington, D.C. neighborhood that has seen a recent uptick in crime.

Rich's murder quickly became a fascination of right-wing conspiracy theorists, including longtime informal Donald Trump adviser Roger Stone , who told NBC News that he has been in contact with WikiLeaks Founder Julian Assange.

It sure feels like a year hasn’t gone by in which Roger Stone or one of his fellow lunatics haven't made the claim that Hillary Clinton Murdered Some Guy. It is the go-to theory when discussing the first lady turned senator turned Secretary of State turned presidential nominee. For 20 years, far-right crackpots have been insisting that anyone who's ever so much as gotten Bill or Hillary Clinton's signature on a hat will have only themselves to blame when they wake up dead five or 10 or 20 years later. Before the blogs ever became a thing, before newspapers were ever online, conservatives were sending each other badly xeroxed newsletters detailing the time Bill Clinton personally flew a plane full of cocaine across the Texas border, or the time Hillary Clinton staged the suicide of a White House staffer who "knew too much,” or take-your-fracking-pick. Thank goodness Al Gore invented the internet, allowing them to save stamps.
