Dem #110, overall #111 -->
The official announcement:
Rep. Serrano becomes Dem #111 to back an impeachment inquiry. He’s the third of the day.
Dem #112 backs an impeachment innquiry:
Eleanor Holmes Norton, D.C.'s delegate, backs an impeachment inquiry. Her support doesn't matter to the overall math because she doesn't get a floor vote -- but she does inside the Democratic caucus.

norton.house.gov/media-center/p…
Dem #113 and a big one: Rep. Jennifer Wexton, frmo a tough swing district.
Wexton is from the VA district previously held by Republican Rep. Barbara Comstock. She's one of a small group of other Dem freshmen who won GOP-held districts to call for an inquiry

The others: Porter, Mike Levin, Rouda, Casten, Malinowski, Pappas, Mucarsel-Powell, Schrier.
ANOTHER BIG ONE: Rep. Engel backs an impeachment inquiry. He’s one of the six chairmen Pelosi tasked with investigating Trump. Dem #114
That means two of the six — Engel and Waters — are publicly advocating for an impeachment inquiry. And Nadler has privately advocated. The others are Schiff, Neal and Cummings.
Engel is also an outsize voice in the NY delegation, which includes a few Dems who haven’t backed an inquiry yet — including Reps. Jeffries, Lowey and Meeks.
DEM #115 is another swing district freshman. Rep. Jason Crow: medium.com/@Rep.JasonCrow…
Judy CHU is the 116th House Democrat to back an impeachment inquiry.

NEW: The Arizona grand jury that indicted 18 Trump allies displayed unusual independence and aggressiveness that at times surpassed AG Kris Mayes' prosecutors.

A rare look inside the process that led to last month's indictment.

At least two of the 18 people indicted by the grand jury — Christina Bobb and Jenna Ellis — were told by prosecutors that they weren't targets of the investigation. In Ellis' case, that assurance was reiterated four days before she was charged.

One witness described an interview with the grand jury that revealed a panel that was not politically monolithic and had factions of some particularly aggressive jurors with clear opinions and others more skeptical of the lines of questioning. politico.com/news/2024/05/1…

From afar, I would be surprised if Trump's lawyers don't move for a mistrial when Stormy Daniels is off the stand, given the level of detail Daniels went into that even seemed to bother the judge — and even after he warned prosecutors to steer clear.

There's the ask:

NEW: Takeaways from today’s SCOTUS argument:

1) Donald Trump could win by losing because in this case losing his most extreme argument means further delay of trial — and for Trump, delay is almost as good as an outright win

2) The conservatives on the court contorted themselves to avoid discussing the specific case in front of them — Donald Trump’s attempt to subvert the 2020 election. They talked about FDR, Nixon and future presidents. But they rarely engaged w the present.
