"We need to get back to work helping the American people"

This is the new go to line for Republicans regarding the impeachment trial....but the funny things is they weren’t even doing work before the trial, all their “work” consist of and will in the future is blocking, or at least trying to, every Biden and Democratic proposal

Gingrich and Livingstone were so outraged about Clinton's lying about a sex act with a consenting adult. While they were carrying on affairs with their mistresses. BC and his administration generated economic policy that created 24MM jobs during his 8 years in office. Also, he successfully carried out, under UN auspices, the Kosovo campaign that kicked the wannbe fascist asses without the loss of an American life.

That's about the time I realized that the Republican Party was all about doing whatever it would take to create a 1 Party rule in this country.

Since Moscow’s entire MO was “block and bury” unless he was jamming through unqualified judges.

This American wants accountability. That would be a big help.
