January 19, 2021 --

The votes on impeachment will be carefully taken, with the list of ayes and nays delivered to Speaker Pelosi.

Thereupon she will give copies of the list of nays to Chairmen Nadler and Schiff.

This triumvirate will announce an immediate press conference.  

Nadler will list the names of the Republicans who voted nay on the second impeachment of the president.

Schiff, after each name is spoken, will declare:  "marked for expulsion."

Pelosi will declare "so ordered."

At the conclusion of this exercise  (to be known in history as "The Press Conference of Long Knives), the Speaker will announce that until such time as the affected states can hold new elections to replace the expelled former House members, and provided that every candidate takes an oath to support, retroactively, the impeachment of the former president, the House of Representatives will consist of 218 members, with 18 constituting a quorum.

One reporter who inquires of the Speaker -- "Does this mean that any Republican, should she be elected and oppose the Speaker on any given vote, will also be expelled ?"-- will receive an email advising that her credentials have been nullified.
