"The US House of Representatives has passed a resolution to formally proceed with the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump.
The measure details how the inquiry will move into a more public phase. It was not a vote on whether the president should be removed from office.
This was the first test of support in the Democratic-controlled House for the impeachment process.
The White House condemned the vote, which passed along party lines.
Only two Democrats - representing districts that Mr Trump won handily in 2016 - voted against the resolution, along with all Republicans, for a total count of 232 in favour and 196 against."

Don't forget, that all along the cries for cutting the budget were really dog whistles, coded messages. They were never sincere about fiscal responsibility. What they really wanted was to discriminate, and all the talk about fiscal responsibility was just cover for that goal. Cutting some program for the poor always hurts disadvantaged minorities more. That was the part I didn't figure out until after the Clinton years.
