WASHINGTON—Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) “waited till the end of the year and is now racing the clock” on impeaching President Donald Trump, using an anonymous alleged whistleblower’s claims about the chief executive’s July 25 conversation with Ukraine officials.

“The Clinton impeachment took five months, the Nixon impeachment took eight months,” Republican strategist Matt Mackowiak told The Epoch Times on Oct. 2. “If they want to get it done by Thanksgiving, that’s 6 1/2 weeks from today. If they want it done by Iowa, it’s four months.” The first presidential caucuses will take place in Iowa on Feb. 3, 2020.
