Impeachment: What comes next in the Trump impeachment inquiry?

So the House has adopted rules for the impeachment investigation into President Trump. But what will happen next?

USA TODAYWASHINGTON – Setting the stage for the public phase of the inquiry, the House of Representatives adopted rules for the impeachment investigation into President Donald Trump along mostly partisan lines on Thursday.

Previously, the interviews with witnesses had been held behind closed doors, which Republicans had derided as a"Soviet-style investigation." Both Republicans and Democrats have participated in those interviews.The House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees will hold public hearings, and previously confidential witness testimony will be released to the public.

It is unclear, however, when the public hearings will begin, though they are sure to be high-profile. Bolton's attorney notified congressional committees that Bolton would not voluntarily appear but awaits a subpoena to force his testimony, something lawmakers have indicted an openness to doing.House Republicans, however, vehemently oppose the impeachment inquiry. No Republicans crossed the aisle to vote for the impeachment resolution on Thursday.
