Maybe now Trump can get back to running the country.

New articles of impeachment from the House in 3...2...1...

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Yup:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. House of Representatives’ Democrats are likely to subpoena President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton and continue their investigation into the Republican president, the head of the House Judiciary panel told CNN on Wednesday.

If it happens at all, I don't see it happening before the election. And that brings me to a technical point, which I have mentioned before:

Suppose Trump wins reelection, and the House votes early in his second term to impeach him for something he did during his first term. Can they do that? In his second term, he is ... well, he's in his second term. Can a President be impeached essentially after he has left office? I can see his defense coming down to, "I didn't do that. That was the former President Trump. I'm the second President Trump."

I hope they push through another round of impeachment.  R's will wo d up taking a net gain of 50+ House seats and probably 2-3 more Senate seats.  Not to mention Trump winning a true landslide.

I'm not surprised the Democrats are deploying endless lawfare, but you'd think even the dopes in the House of Representin' would realize they will lose face if they keep impeaching over and over again.

Adam Schiff claimed that if the Senate acquitted Trump, Trump would give Alaska to the Russians. You can't tell me you didn't hear that?

Counter-argument: California has a population of 40 million (not counting illegals). Those 18 million people could all be from CA given the state is currently around 70% dem population. So California residents should decide it for the other 49 states?

Well, yes! Duh!

That's also why we need to get rid of the Electoral College! California Dems know what's best for everyone!

Eliminating the electoral college, which the dems/left are so keen to do now, would effectually do that
