The Democrats aren't the ones causing these problems, and we're going to have to drag the republicans kicking and screaming to do the legal minimum of what they're required to do. The most powerful weapon the Democrats have on their side is the court of public opinion, so it's important that we focus our outrage at the people actually causing the problem, not take down our own with supposedly friendly fire.

State Crimes are not pardonable. This is probably the fastest response that can be done at this time.

render them unusable. Someone has already gamed it out, has plans locked and loaded from now to November. It's clear there's a plan C and so on. Hearings will mean nothing unless the source of those plans is revealed, and it's not the dancing tangerine. He is not smart enough, but someone else is, and there must be a paper trail. That trail needs following, and people have to start going to jail or, election or no election, we will no longer have a postal service.
