Updated with the President’s response below
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday announced the seven lawmakers who will serve as the House managers to prosecute the case against President Trump in his Senate impeachment trial. It should begin next week.
The House managers include House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who will be the lead manager and who led much of the impeachment inquiry out of his committee with dramatic hearings to develop the case against the president and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., whose panel drafted the articles of impeachment.
Pelosi also tapped House Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y.; Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo.; Val Demings, D-Fla.; Sylvia Garcia, D-Texas; and Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif.
They are all awful and they are all far-left. Fair trial, here we come.
.@SpeakerPelosi begins on an existential note: "I referenced markers that our founders and our poets and others have used over time to place us in time to emphasize the importance of time, because everything is about time. How we use it, how we mark it." pic.twitter.com/dMNmNV5sqG

Nancy Pelosi says "The American voter should decide who our president is" at the same time she is trying to overturn the will of the American people in 2016
And she's STILL spreading Russia "collusion" conspiracy theories!
Why? Because they're scared how we'll vote again! pic.twitter.com/l62xZ5bEey

Several RINOs in the Senate will demand McConnell hold yet another trial, even though that is the House’s job. Pelosi got her way anyway.
The President responds:
Here we go again, another Con Job by the Do Nothing Democrats. All of this work was supposed to be done by the House, not the Senate!

Mitch and his club created the mess in the senate and the house. I hope they suffer miserably. The fun part is that if they remove Trump, they lose their jobs and reputations. Any minute now loudmouth Graham will be in front of cameras doing his fake outrage act. He is, of course, a major cause of this problem.
Just watching this democrat demonstration of dementia as Nana’s appointed stiffs made me smirk at how much they looked like pall bearers for the democratic party. The American taxpayers have had enough of this vindictive and expensive farcical waste of time. Nit wit Nanny, Nonads, and Schitty-fly eyes are the grave diggers for their own party but too far gone and consumed by hate to realize it
Excellent choices Nancy……Clueless Coup Clan…….these bozo’s and their impeachment BS are going to be destroyed by the White House Lawyers!!!!!!
Nancy you know who the American voted to be President so don’t want to hear you say that again that the people should be the one to say who the President will be.We did that already it is you dumb asses that is trying to impeach who we American people elected.
They should all start running for the hills. The American people want them in prison for the sham that they put this country through, because they didn’t like the president. A lot of us didn’t like Obama but we let him do the job that he was elected to do. I think all of them will look good in orange jumpsuits.
