Harming the destitute by deporting refugees to a lawless Haitian state (especially those whom we harbored and protected) IS EVIL! Turning our backs on them would be despicable, but giving them succor and then casting them to the wolves is actively EVIL - a human rights atrocity DONE IN OUR NAME!!!

Obviously, the presidency can’t be trusted with the military in the absence of a declaration of war. The next Congress should revoke any authorization to use the military, appoint a Commander in Chief During Peacetime and remove control from the Executive until next “called into service” by Congress

When we get control of Congress, we need a blanket fine imposed for each non-answer, taken out of a deposit that they have to put up when they enter the room. We can eliminate the national debt in a matter of months with witnesses like this.

Mitch McConnell has me thinking about the story of Snow White. There, the wicked queen is so jealous of other beauties that she tries to have her own stepdaughter murdered. Now, Mitch wasn’t particularly good looking but was undeniably a good strategist.

What is ANY Republican candidate going to say when asked what they will do to force the administration to comply with the Epstein Transparency Act???? How effectively can they run for reelection if they have to skip any situation where they might be asked? I think a blue wave is coming.

So, after his speech, he released a bunch of documents proving his case, right? Funny how even FOX isn’t touting them as obvious proof of his assertions. Not even FOX. Perhaps they didn’t like paying that defamation settlement.

When we regain control of our government, we need to seriously crack down on the crime of assault. I’m sick of all the credible threats of violence by gun toting thugs which Republicans excuse as just an alpha male prerogative. No! Credible threats are CRIMES and a gun amps up credibility.

We really want beauty to be a stand-in for virtue, but it’s not. Virtue cannot be distinguished at all glance; it is perceived through deeper understanding. It takes “works” rather than “faith”. True beauty needs no makeup, you behold it when you perceive the virtue within.

The President is empowered MERELY to “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed “. He doesn’t get to MAKE the laws. He doesn’t get to INTERPRET the laws. He doesn’t get to enforce some and ignore others. He doesn’t get to assert that some are unconstitutional and unilaterally violate them.

Republicans feel that having won a presidential election that they have gained power over citizenship. But that is not a presidential power; citizenship is automatic BY CONSTITUTIONAL DESIGN. The rules are simple. If they want it changed, they need to amend the Constitution. PERIOD.

Of course I want impeachment. In the horrible immunity decision, the Supreme Court made it clear that impeachment completely dissolves all presidential immunity. I want impeachment for EVERYBODY- continuous and nonstop.

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Congress can impeach and remove Supreme Court Justices for whatever reasons they want. They vote (with a supermajority) and it’s done - no debate, no appeal, no constitutional amendment - DONE. We pick a Congress in November. Choose wisely. We deserve a Court that enables a more perfect country.

010

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Yet again, SCOTUS says Congress may not pass laws which constrain the President, EVEN WHEN THEY ARE SIGNED BY A PRESIDENT. It’s time for Congress to impeach and remove Justices without justification in law, just because THEY can - Plenary authority and all that.

Jen Rubin of The Contrarian is correct but too mild; she should ditch the future tense. She writes, “If Republicans defend his indefensible conduct, … they will take on full responsibility for the wreckage… from sheltering an unhinged, unwell president.” Since they defend, they bear responsibility.

"[t]he President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States." The next Congress needs terminate the President’s “service“ and appoint a new CiC until they next declare war.

It used to be that incumbent politicians were seen as almost impossible to beat because their seniority gave them disproportionate power. The ouster of Cassidy and Cornyn shows how little Republicans care about Congress as a legislative body. Their votes against impeachment alone are paramount.

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

Is the press incapable of asking Republican office holders how they justify Trump’s “Settlement Fund”??? Senators and Congressmen should be constantly running away from reporters with microphones. If the parties were switched, would ANY Democratic politician escape unquestioned???

020

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

So, Trump has exacted revenge against establishment Republicans (Massie, Cassidy, some Indiana state senators, maybe Cornyn) probably preventing a revolt within the Republican Party. Some mourn the downfall of potential allies. Not I. There are no good Republicans, and they weren’t good allies.

010

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

The Jan 6th “Settlement Fund” is clearly a case of bribery and thus explicitly an impeachable offense, as in “Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors “. Impeachment would void Presidential immunity as well, just sayin’.

I think I missed a Roberts Court’s ruling that archaic words in the constitution that most Americans can’t define (like emoluments) don’t apply to Republican presidents. I think it said that when MAGA voters had major questions about a word, it could just be skipped.

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

It’s time to pivot and criticize REPUBLICANS instead of TRUMP. The war, gas prices, inflation, the Billionaire’s Ballroom, corruption, self-dealing - all the things we all hate about Trump were ENABLED by REPUBLICANS who are ON THE BALLOT. We need to assign BLAME and highlight their complicity.

"[t]he President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States." Trump is not legitimately Commander in Chief as he was not called into service by Congress.

The Trump administration has doubled down on its lawlessness with an illegal and unconstitutional war. As far as I’m concerned, mere impeachment and conviction is no longer adequate; once we’ve removed him from power, we need to send him to The Hague to face war crime charges.

131

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 09/03/2026

It’s clear that the administration believes that there is no lie so extreme that Americans won’t believe. So they lead with “he was a domestic terrorist” and “the Iranians bombed the school “. When the government lies with impunity, we no longer have a democracy. I’ll believe my own eyes, thanks.

010

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

Trump used the military illegally hoping it would turn out well and we’d decide to forgive him. I don’t. He should be impeached and sent to The Hague. I don’t care if Bibi and MBS are happy.

Noem and Bondi appear before Congress and trumpet their contempt for the legislative branch. Personally, I don’t think highlighting the insane degree to which Republican congressional leaders (and upcoming candidates) are spineless lickspittles will help them retain control in the midterms.

010

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 01/03/2026

So we’ve reached the stage where the excuse is: no one seriously believed that Trump actually knew the meaning of the word “obliterated”.

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 28/02/2026

So, how did anyone in the military conclude that orders to attack Iran were not illegal when a declaration of war has never even been whispered about?

Trump says the Supreme Court must be beholden to foreign interests. Funny, I haven’t heard of any of them accepting a plane or huge crypto infusions or even lavish vacations from FOREIGN billionaires.

In their motion to stay the lower court’s original decision invalidating Trump’s IEEPA tariffs, the government says, “even if a stay is entered and defendants do not prevail on appeal, plaintiffs will assuredly receive payment on their refund with interest.” It’s time for the government to pay up.

000

peter-christian.bsky.social @peter-christian.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

So, in the tariff decision, a majority of his own appointees voted against him. If the same dynamic applies to the midterms…

What a shitshow! CJ Roberts is REALLY BAD at his job! In a situation where as much as $200 BILLION is at stake, SCOTUS takes more than 3 MONTHS and produces an opinion with 7 separate writings! We have a right to expect the CJ to require his court to act with urgency and achieve more consensus!

It’s astonishing to me how applicable the long-established vernacular term “trumped-up charges” (which was a well ensconced aphorism LONG before Donald Trump had any political attention), but is so little used in public media. Prosecutions of: Comey, James, Lemon, Powell etc ALL are TRUMPED UP.
