Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California threatened on Friday that the House could move to impeach President Trump over his role in inciting a violent mob attack on the Capitol if he did not resign “immediately,” appealing to Republicans to join the push to force him from office.
In a letter to members of the House, the speaker invoked the resignation of Richard M. Nixon amid the Watergate scandal, when Republicans prevailed upon the president to resign and avoid the ignominy of an impeachment, calling Mr. Trump’s actions a “horrific assault on our democracy.”
“Today, following the president’s dangerous and seditious acts, Republicans in Congress need to follow that example and call on Trump to depart his office — immediately,” she wrote. “If the president does not leave office imminently and willingly, the Congress will proceed with our action.”
Also:
Ms. Pelosi also said she had spoken with Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, about “preventing an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes.”
So, the first President since Jimmy Carter not to initiate a foreign conflict somehow will go off the rails in the next two weeks and start nuking folks?
They will never “leave it alone”. They are calling for the expulsion of senators too. They will use the name Trump for constant attacks against the right for many years to come.
In a weird way I almost hope they do it. Because I think that’s gonna be what could push some of the fringe elements over the edge and God only knows what they’re gonna do or capable of. I’m really just rooting for chaos at this point.
I hope the General told her to GFYS, constitutionally.
It is such a brazen political play. That’s not about the country or saving democracy or anything like that it’s all about playing politics and trying to shame Republicans.
The Democrats can say and do whatever they like at this point, They’re not getting anywhere with this.
They’re just trying to prevent him from running four years from now. They’ve probably got 10,000 legal mind trying to find some charge or another before he exits the door.
He’s going to face a hell of a gambit when they come after him when he leaves office.
Just more showboating and running up the score on a guy who went from a reasonably close loss to being the biggest loser in memory. Still, if he was awesome he would pardon everyone in America. No reason why he can’t. Just draft a Pardon exercising his power to pardon every American citizen now, and in the past. And then draft a separate one for all generations to come. It would be the ultimate mike drop. But I assume he will just spend his final days playing on Parlor and pardoning rappers.
Twitter has now PERMANENTLY banned President Trump. Look for FB to do the same. NOW, Apple and Goggle are going after Parler. It’s a purge. How long before M4C is shut down by being pulled from it’s servers?
How about a blanket pardon for any non-ANTIFA or BLM who entered the US Capitol building who have been/or will be charged? Trump can pardon Federal crimes so this would be perfect. Won’t happen but it would be fun to watch.
It’s going to keep going. It’s going to get worse. My bet is that within a few months after Jan 20th, there will be a newly established “Ministry of information” that they’ll kindly label something friendly like the “Social media public standards safety commission” or some other rainbow unicorn pony name… Once that come online, a lot of sites, pages, forums… having anything to do with firearms, freedom, politics, religion… will be shut down as being unhealthy, unsafe, hate speech, “against community standards” or whatever ignorant buzz words they can think of.
All “approved” information will flow directly to the public in an easily controlled, one-way direction.
Like the song says… “Everything you think, do, or say, is in the pill you took today…”
Yeah I been hearing shit about to go down in next 4 days. That is why they are a running scared.
I have no proof, just rumblings I have hearing.
I read something about a DNI report delivered to Congress after they voted to certify, proving foreign Election interference . They starting running scared after that. Seem to be in a hurry to impeach him all of a sudden.
Again I dont know anything just little stuff I keep hearing.
