If there aren’t 15 Republicans who will vote to remove the guy bringing back measles and the guy who is day drinking us through a war, then the entire GOP is a lost cause. It IS MAGA.

“Very smart” Democrats will roll their eyes if you mention impeachment for Trump and his regime and lecture you about how there aren’t enough Republican votes to remove them from office, no matter how bad the crime. We are talking about 15 at most Senate votes!

Stephen, the fever is going to break any day now. Maybe if Dems turn over the platform to Liz Cheney.

The media, too. I don't know how common that actual phrase is, but they certainly want us all to think the country is crawling with "reasonable Republicans." Both politicians and, especially, the public.

Democrats still refer to “MAGA Republicans” when discussing policies all Republicans support or actively enable. All this does is suggest that there are “normal” Republicans (like Lawler or Collins). It’s bad messaging but the Dem consultants won’t give it up.

I would seriously like to hear what the purpose of impeachment as a constitutional mechanism is if not for this

Dear @duckworth.senate.gov when you became a senator you swore an oath to the constitution. Well impeachment is literally in the constitution. Impeachment is your job. So yes, “get back to work.”

Article II, Section 4:

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Trump stole taxpayer $$ to destroy the White House and replace it with a firetrap and too few ladies stalls. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

McCrery informed the White House that Trump’s ballroom design did not meet fire safety codes, which require the majority of guests to be able to quickly exit through the main entrance during an emergency, according to the people and documents. The architect also pointed out that alternative emergency exit routes out of the building were insufficient, and that there was little in the design to prevent a kitchen fire from rapidly spreading into the event space on the floor above.

In addition to fire safety concerns, Trump’s desired ballroom design did not include enough toilets to accommodate the structure’s maximum occupancy, according to documents, and there were few options for adding more, as the event space occupied most of the building’s footprint. One early ballroom design featured just seven stalls in the women’s bathroom.

Lauren Boebert was never a rising star, even by MAGA standards. She was a nuisance. However, she wasn’t one of the eight Republicans who voted to oust McCarthy as speaker because she never really finishes anything unless it’s during the Beetlejuice musical. open.substack.com/pub/ser1897/...

Literally, the whole point of Liz Cheney campaigning with Kamala Harris was that she would convince voters like Renee Good’s mother that, hey, maybe Trump is a bad actor who you can’t trust.

Lots of love for Mamdani pointing out how important it is for progressives and socialists to reclaim the mantle of efficient government from the right. Seattle’s own @mayor.seattle.gov has been saying similar things. And she’s giving a budget speech later today that might just make similar points:

youre electable when the voters elect you. so lets have a debate. lets have a knock out drag-down fight and lets find out who is most electable instead of arbitrarily taking options off the table because of maybe possibly how some midwestern swing voter is gonna react.

im old enough to remember h. clinton and kerry being offered up as the "most electable" candidate. and on the gop side that was mitt romney. none of them ever became president.

i dont see how either of those two questions would somehow disqualify AOC. in 2007-8 we heard from so many about how obama was not electable. too black, too young, too much having a middle eastern name. and then he literally became the most electable democrat in a century

i think the best "electability" argument isnt race, gender or resume. its the person who attracts the most dedicated, genuine, organic support. sometimes that has been barack obama. sometimes it was donald trump. but thats the real electability.

The black guy named Barack Hussein Obama got elected president twice. There is no "are they electable" argument. Anyone is electable if they're charismatic and solid on policy.

Yeah, it’s like he’s daring them and knowing they will fail. This statement from Duckworth is delusional.

Trump will thuggishly rain hell on "blue states" after 2026, and Democrats will have to force his hand. It's frankly insane to imagine that this White House is capable of anything approaching constructive bipartisan governance. You can't engage with him as if he's Bush in 2007.

I wonder if @owillis.bsky.social shares my cynicism here, but I do think that Trump is almost intentionally pushing Democrats past a point where they could get away with gaining power for its own sake and simply "containing" his worst actions. This isn't the border wall.
