Well…of course as we expected…the spineless kevin mccarthy folds to the maga assholes in the House this morning and announced they are going to start the impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden…never mind they have been investigating him since they took the House in the 2020 election and have found nothing…but that doesn’t matter since mccarthy is so afraid of the bomb throwers in his caucus and really, really wants to keep the speakers job…but all he would have had to do is tell them to go to hell and there is nothing they could do about it…hey kevvie…where are the “high crimes and misdemeanors” that are supposed to be present before you pull this crap? Media, don’t fall for the false equivalencies that the repubs are already pushing…I mean is eating two scoops of ice cream the same to you as trying to overthrow the government? Because that’s all you’ve got on Joe…so stop wasting our time and money and do something to help the middle class…oh, you don’t know how to do that? Read a book once…geez…

Paxton is going down…
Well…it looks like the criminal Ken Paxton is going down in Texas today…you know him the AG who filed like 200 lawsuits trying to get the 2020 election overturned…and the one who has been under felony investigation for fraud for years? Yep, that one…the lege there is voting on 20 articles of impeachment that they have brought on him…and how bad do you have to be to get a far right, repub controlled lege to impeach you? The vote should be going on right now so we’ll have some news soon…if they don’t vote to convict…he’ll just continue being a criminal and pushing to have everyone’s rights taken away…he’s already taken them away from all women and now he’s coming for the LGBTQ community and that will happen soon…so remove this ass already…geez…
Come on Nadler, drag out a subpoena..
Well…as Bill Barr runs rampant over the rule of law in this country, the one person that can put a check on him has given up…the chair of the house judiciary committee, Jerry Nadler, said over the weekend “there’s no point in impeaching Barr, the corrupt senate will just let him go”…Jerry, Jerry, no, no, and damn no! Just because the senate repubs are corrupt, is doesn’t mean you should stop doing your job…and your job is to hold these criminals accountable…and what really sucks here is that Nadler hasn’t even used all of the tools available to him to force accountability….he could use “inherent contempt” to force Barr to show up and testify and if he doesn’t, Nadler can have the capitol police arrest him and have him brought to the house…but why not start with a subpoena? At the very least a subpoena…and then Nadler needs to make these criminals understand that the election is not a “get out of jail free card”…when trump loses…things are just getting started in bringing trump and Barr to pay for their crimes…but, these assholes don’t seem too worried even though Biden has said catergoricly that there will be no pardons for any of these criminals….if they were as smart as they think they are, they would stop criming all damn day and start trying to figure out how to minimize their jail sentences….tick, tock Barr…the noose is closing….
It’s impeachment day…one last chance repubs…
Well…today is the day that the totally unfit lying cheater is going to be impeached for his total obstruction of the lawful duty of the House to do it’s job of oversight of the executive branch…and covering up his crimes and extortion in Ukraine to get them to help him cheat in the 2020 election…and you know I have talked about the 50 other things he could be impeached for…I mean, paying a 2 million dollar fine for using his “charity” as a slush fund for his campaign, something that should be enough to throw anyone out of office but his protectors in the senate are just as corrupt so he will escape conviction and removal. I have only one thing to say to the repubs that are fully behind trump and his criminality…today is your last chance…your last chance to uphold your oath to the constitution…your last chance to show that you put the country ahead of your own power and party…and your last chance to show you are a true patriot, no matter what the consequences. This is something that only one of the parties in this country understands…and it is the dems to a person who understand the danger that trump and his criminality poses to this country and even those in trump leaning districts are going to do their duty even though it may mean they will lose their seats in 2020. What this means to us in the fact based world is that we need to work even harder to protect these protectors of the constitution and to make sure that the idiot trump’s enablers, Moscow Mitch and Lindsey Graham are sent to the scrap heap where they belong…and their legacies are only that the two of them helped trump damage this country every damn day….they all need to go if they can’t escape the cult of the repub party….this is the last time I’ll say this…impeach!
Don’t send the articles…
Well….with the promises by “Moscow” Mitch McConnell that he is going to rig the impeachment trial in the senate and “coordinate” everything with the defendant, I think the dems should not play his game and keep the articles of impeachment in the House…and re-open the investigations into trump and his minions criminality. If they want to not do their duty to the constitution and protect this country, we don’t need to go along with it…we can drag the impeachment out until the election if necessary and continue to expose just how corrupt trump and the repubs are…and that would allow us time to get subpoenas through the courts…and even if the trump packed courts destroy the constitution by refusing to enforce them, the process will expose the black heart of the repub party and give us a better chance to win in 2020. I think what is necessary now is to use all of the tools that we have available to take the long view…the impeachment inquiry hasn’t hurt the dems one bit and being able to show that we are the serious party just trying to protect this country will resonate with the people in our party that we need to turn out in 2020….and if we do turn out, we will win…
They have to take an oath…
Well…to show just how corrupt Mitch McConnell is, you just have to look at the oath that all senators have to take before the impeachment trial starts that requires them to be “impartial” during the proceedings. Does ole Mitch think that if he announces to one and all that he will coordinate with trump and the WH during the trial that that is okay since he announced it before the trial? How can it even appear that he is impartial if he has already made up his mind and has promised trump he has nothing to worry about with a trial? I wonder what John Roberts, the SC chief justice, is going to do when one of the dems files a complaint about ole Mitch’s “impartiality” and demands that Mitch recuse himself because there is no damn way that he is going to be impartial and is going to violate his oath as soon as he opens his mouth? Will Roberts risk what little respect he has left and his legacy just to help Mitch keep trump in office? Sadly, I think the court has been so corrupted by Mitch’s blocking of Merrick Garland from the court and it’s packing with ideologues by Mitch that Roberts is just going to give up and go along…and that is one thing I don’t understand…how supposedly respectable judges and legislators have trashed themselves for trump when they have to know he is the worst of the worst and they could actually burnish their reputations by standing up to the orange menace and protecting the constitution…but, they don’t and a more craven bunch of fools I have never seen…geez….
In any normal time, it would be all over after today…
Well….I wonder if they make a bus big enough for all the people Gordon Sondland threw under one today? If you didn’t see it, trump’s ambassador to the EU, Gordon Sondland, testified in the impeachment investigation in the House today and boy, he laid out that every damn one of the department heads that work for trump was in on the extortion of Ukraine and took an active part in it on the orders of the idiot trump….let that sink in for a minute…almost every damn cabinet secretary has committed a felony in support of trump trying to get a foreign power to help install him just like Putin did in 2016…Mulvaney, Pence, Pompeo, Perry and many more people were in on the scam according to Sondland who was there and pushing most of it with those other criminals….and in any normal time, there would be a delegation of repub senators heading to the WH right now to tell the idiot boy that it’s all over and he needs to resign…but, these aren’t normal times since every damn repub has lost his mind and still supports the criminal in chief…and I can’t figure out why. After all, trump can’t even get repubs elected in deep red states and his influence is waning every day…so I wonder why all of the repubs still kiss his ass and protect him regularly…and here’s the kicker….we haven’t even heard the worst stuff yet since the courts haven’t forced any of the criminals from trump’s inner circle to testify yet…what are we going to hear when that happens? It sure as hell isn’t going to get better and more and more of trumps cronies are going to end up disgraced or in jail or both….and resigning like Perry did or that Pompeo is contemplating is no protection or a get out of jail free card…there are consequences for extorting a foreign government for personal gain and every damn one of them that don’t resign should be impeached…
I don’t want to hear it…
Well…the next time any damn repub goes on about how they are the only party that supports our troops, I don’t want to hear it…after how the assorted group of draft dodgers and pedophile protectors went after Col. Vindman today, trying to impugn his service and love of this country with innuendo and outright lies to protect the 5 time draft dodger who squats in the WH, they can never say they support the troops ever again…and, we all know that the repubs support of the troops has been a lie for decades as they stage photo ops with them but then cut the VA and any programs that benefits them…like the bone spur in chief who stole funds earmarked to rehab schools and hospitals that the troops need for their families to build his stupid wall…and now they are trying to tear down a decorated veteran who is doing his duty to protect the constitution while the criminal in chief just keeps committing more and more crimes. When Col. Vindman was at the end of his opening statement, he did what any good son would do for his father when he stated “do not worry, I will be fine for telling the truth”….this is a true American talking, not the repub assholes who are attacking him for his “divided loyalties” because he wasn’t born here….they can all go to hell….
Impeachment is boring?
Well…you know the media is almost too far gone to save when they call the most important hearings in our lifetimes “boring” and try to dismiss them just for that opinion. What the hell are they supposed to be? Full of dancing bears and fireworks? These are damn serious times and if the hearings are “boring” to you, then you are either a trumpbot or just plain stupid…after all what was revealed yesterday by just the first two witnesses was that trump personally ordered his cronies to extort and bribe Ukraine into fabricating dirt on the Bidens and to try to say that the Russian hacking of the 2016 elections was actually done by the Ukrainians…and, guess what? Bribery is specifically mentioned as one of the actions that should get a president impeached and removed…and it doesn’t fall under the “high crimes and misdemeanors” catch all….so there is no interpretation necessary…it’s right there in black and white that trump should be removed because he tried to bribe Ukraine with military assistance that was appropriated by congress and should have not have been subject to any conditions but those in the legislation that appropriated it…look, every damn thing that trump has done since he was installed by Putin was for his own personal gain or that of Putin and Russia and it was made clear yesterday how foreign policy has been subverted for that purpose by trump….and he should be removed…now….
Just can’t watch…
Well….started watching the impeachment hearings but when the idiot repubs got their chance to question, it was so much bullshit and conspiracy theories that have been thoroughly debunked that the only explanation is that they are doing it for an audience of one…the idiot in the WH…or for the mouth breathers on fox news…not trying to get to the truth or protect the constitution but just to protect the criminal in chief who is even lying about watching today…he says that he is not watching but then tweets with comments in real time…I guess the idiot just can’t do anything but lie…so, I am going to wait for the print analysis that will come out later today and read it instead….I am really impressed with the patience of the witnesses dealing with the repubs today…having to sit there and listen to the screeds from the questioners that really don’t have a point to them…they just want the talking point to be read into the record so they can claim that it’s the truth if it’s in the House records…what a bunch of crap….
