At least one White House reporter thinks House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is past the impeachment tipping point.
In a Tuesday tweet, 2020 frontrunner and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) renewed her call for impeaching President Trump, saying "it must start today." BuzzFeed News' Ben Smith interpreted this as a presidential statement, tweeting that Warren is "acting like the leader of the party — and like one who isn't too concerned about what Nancy Pelosi thinks." But Maggie Haberman, The New York Times' White House correspondent, took it a step further, tweeting that Warren could be "getting ahead of something Pelosi herself might say today."
