Nancy may have to re-open House impeachment hearings...

If the holdout Republican Senators force Mitch McConnell to call witnesses like John Bolton and Lev Parnas, then Nancy Pelosi doesn’t have to do anything. But if those witnesses aren’t called, then Pelosi will have to decide how to play her cards. She can reopen House impeachment hearings and have those witnesses testify during the Senate trial. Or she can wait for the GOP Senate to stake itself to an acquittal, and then one-up them by reopening hearings on new articles of impeachment. Pelosi has all the cards. How will she play them? We don’t know, but neither do the Republican Senators.
