Who is implying it isn't numb nuts? If we gonna follow the document, let's not pick and choose, so vote to impeach or STFU... it really is that simple...
please link to the specific Constitutional clause which provides a requirement that the House hold a vote in order to open an impeachment inquiry. I will wait.

OK, I have waited long enough. No such Clause exists. It has historically been done that way, but that is tradition rather than.Constitutional requirement. I think that it is a good practice, but it is simply tradition ... nothing more.

I will right after you link to the clause that allows Congress to send letters they call something else to the executive in an endless manner...

I will wait but don't expect much...

And is there a constitutional clause that invokes the judiciary with no underlying legislation?

So you're on board for shortcutting the process when it serves the purposes of one partisan crusade? Got it.
