The Constitution allows it. South Korea has proven it works. If you want to make impeachment viable—and so much else is pointless if you don't—then it can be done by a simple majority adopting a simple rules change: vote on the verdict by secret ballot.

A Democratic Senate Should Adopt Secret Impeachment Ballots on a Priority Basis
Such a change, requiring no constitutional amendment, would free senators to vote their judgment instead of their fears

The same people who insist we stop talking about past failures and focus on the next election wrongly claimed that our institutions would save us from Trump's fascists and insisted that we stop criticizing Biden, Garland, congressional Democrats and the other failed leaders of our institutions.

The last Republican President to not start a Middle East war was Reagan and that's because he was illegally selling weapons to Iran to fund an illegal war in Central America.

To all those who are hoping/demanding “the next Democratic president” use the unlimited powers bestowed upon Trump by SCOTUS — the point of these powers is to make sure there never is another Democratic president.

Trump’s disastrous failures are not his alone. They are America’s failures, as well. Trump is an ignorant criminal, rapist and pathological liar who can do nothing without significant support (or surrender) from voters, media, government, religion and business. The American rot goes deep.

a gray pomeranian/chihuahua mix sits on a hardwood floor in front of a beige wall and looks slightly to one side. on her left, there is an enormous pile of her own fur, so large as to almost be mistaken for a second dog. it even has two little tufts toward the top that could be ears. fittingly, the dog’s name is tumbleweed.

This is, by my count, the third time in two years that a Cybertruck has been driven into this *particular lake* in North Texas. The driver, after bailing out, was arrested for not having a boating license & operating a water vehicle in a restricted area, which is the icing on the cake.
