Question...
The process of impeachment is not an easy or clear cut process. While the Democrats may think they would win the public opinion, the truth is the same process may show the Democrats in a bad light as well. Things, unknown now, may come to light and become a big scandal that the party may not recover from it soon enough for 2020.
A matter of fact the current investigation of the intelligence communities communication and behavior may be, after it is exposed, a big problem for the Democrats. Just a thought.
Apology...
The director of the Central Intelligence Agency, John Brennan, issued an extraordinary apology to leaders of the US Senate intelligence committee conceding that the agency employees spied on committee staff and reversing months of furious and public denials.
Brennan acknowledged that an internal investigation had found agency security personnel transgressed a firewall set up on a CIA network, which allowed Senate committee investigators to review agency documents for their landmark inquiry into CIA torture.
Among other things, it was revealed that agency officials conducted keyword searches and email searches on committee staff while they used the network.
The admission brings Brennan’s already rocky tenure at the head of the CIA under renewed question. One senator on the panel said he had lost confidence in the director, although the White House indicated its support for a man who has been one of Barack Obama’s most trusted security aides.

Hopes...

Former CIA Director John Brennan and former DNI James Clapper blasted President Trump for directing Attorney General William Barr to declassify documents related to the surveillance of his campaign during the 2016 election, calling it "outrageous.
"I see it as a very, very serious and outrageous move on the part of Mr. Trump, once again, trampling on the statutory authorities of the Director of National Intelligence and the heads of the independent intelligence agencies,"
Brennan told MSNBC host Chris Hayes. "And it's unclear to me what Mr. Barr is actually going to do.
Is he investigating a crime? Well, what's the predication of that crime? Or he is just going to be looking for information...
He later said he hopes that DNI Dan Coats and CIA Director Gina Haspel will "stand up" to President Trump's "unprecedented act." ... Just a thought.
News

Anderson Cooper pressed a Facebook executive over the company's decision to not remove a video that was altered to make it appear that Speaker Nancy Pelosi was slurring her words in a news conference. The video is seen by 2 million viewers.
Cooper then pressed Bickert over whether Facebook had entered the "news business," questioning whether the company could be trusted to operate and make money by being a place for viewers to turn during major news events.
Cooper doesn't want any fake news generators by others, it is competition thing. Just a thought.
