Trump has weaponized the DOJ to target his political opponents, manufacturing charges that have been roundly dismissed by court after court. Trump has also used investigations themselves to infer wrongdoing and eat up his opponents’ time and resources, typically with no basis in law or fact.

“People will die” is not just an angry slogan. It's a rare promise Trump will keep unless we stop him on November 3rd. In June 2025, Yale and Penn researchers projected more than 51,000 additional deaths EACH YEAR from Trump's healthcare cuts combined with expiring enhanced ACA subsidies.

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.
