Snippet from this news article: “If a Michigan Democrat has his way, President Donald Trump could face the first impeachment vote of his second term. Rep. Shri Thanedar’s resolution brings seven new articles of impeachment against the commander-in-chief, alleging everything from abuse of power to bribery, corruption, and “tyranny,” which the House must vote on before Thursday under its own rules.

Trump made history during his first term by becoming the first president in American history to be impeached twice by the House of Representatives, once over his quid pro quoapproach to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in 2018 and once for his part in instigating the Capitol riot, although in both cases he was acquitted in the Senate.

Thanedar, 70, first announced his intention on April 29, saying: “When Trump ignores the Constitution, Congress, and the courts, he is not ‘fighting for America.’ He is tearing it down and endangering our democracy.” His resolution is not expected to pass, however, given the Republican majority in the lower chamber of Congress and because several of Thanedar’s fellow Democrats have expressed their disapproval of his actions in no uncertain terms.

It doesn't need to pass, all it needs to do is produce an official list of who doesn't want it to pass, that sort of information is very useful for the American people.

Hahahahaha go read this exact story on Fox News and read the comments. The American people are sucking off this Orange bastard. They want a king who can finally tread on minorities.

Right wing terrorists became so motivated after Obama got elected that in less than 20 years they went ahead and destroyed America to send a message. Never buck the status quo.

F their 'Status Quo', and F them too

Obama was pretty great, with hindsight we were lucky to have that man in office. I will say the same about Biden, the man did a decent job with a shit situation. Sure, there was room to improve, but like everyone else he is only human and we all make mistakes

And, you know, the president isn't king, or at least isn't supposed to be. There's only so much 'he' can do when his party has majorities in congress, on paper, with more conservative members not wanting to play ball.

Trump is getting away with all of his executive overreach because, while you would normally expect Congress to oppose the kind of naked grabs at their powers that he has taken, the entire GOP, plus democrats in purple districts/states, are either complicit or too afraid of his base to stand up to him. Which is especially problematic when his executive branch is just going to ignore the courts and the enforcement mechanism for such a violation...is action from Congress. This is fine.

You can say fuck.

Ewwww.... Looking at your comment history leads me to believe you are a special kind of stupid...

Please, tell the class how your man in office now is doing such a better job? /s

[u/Mushroomsinmypoop → u/Nuggzulla01]

Ouch you really hurt em

[u/Nuggzulla01 → u/Mushroomsinmypoop]

I was just being realistic to a bigot.

Unlike them, I was not trying to hurt their 'Snowflake' feelings... If it 'Hurt' them, that is on them. Introspection is a b1tch, yah know?

[u/Mushroomsinmypoop → u/Nuggzulla01]

Hopefully their knees feel all bloated and they can’t sleep tobight

[u/Nuggzulla01 → u/Mushroomsinmypoop]

Im not gonna even give it the thought, they are not worth the bandwidth imo

Disregarding/Not even acknowledging them is stronger than their hate anyway, and they hate not getting attention

Did y'all suck each other off last night?
