Reposted by BelaAlex Rikleen formerly for Senate @rikleen.bsky.social · 19/01/2026What a cowardly way of calling for removal. You're a member of Congress. Congress has the power to remove a president - through impeachment. Yet, you don't call for that. You don't call for something that involves *you* taking action. Posting this is embarrassing. 26518
