Trump wanted to over throw the government. He's said to the crowd "we are going to walk down there and make the right choice." Over throw the results for Trump not how the people voted. The only thing shocking is we had a President who wanted to over throw the United States. Lock that fucker up.

While I completely agree they should, we barely got the votes to enforce a subpoena on Bannon berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #7

It wasn't barely. Several republicans voted against Bannon. brush Oct 2021 #14

To expel a member you need 2/3rd majority. berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #48

That's not what my response was to. Several repugs... brush Oct 2021 #50

Several. Would that be a handful? Right. Barely. berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #53

Come on. Nine votes with the Dems is not barely. Two or three is barely. brush Oct 2021 #54

it's 4 percent of the Repulblican House Caucus qazplm135 Oct 2021 #80

Nine is hardly barely when it's usually none. It passed easily. brush Oct 2021 #99

My hope is that the DOJ prosecutes them and then the House will be forced to expel them berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #49

Why would the house be forced to expel them? Alpeduez21 Oct 2021 #55

I should have used the word pressure berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #57

I agree. TomSlick Oct 2021 #72

Where did you get the 2/3 majority thing? That's not in the Constitution. lagomorph777 Oct 2021 #86

Article 1, Section 2, Clause 2. TomSlick Oct 2021 #130

I believe you are absolutely correct! Evolve Dammit Oct 2021 #65

Only a majority is needed, and after we expel a few, our majority widens. lagomorph777 Oct 2021 #84

The Constitution says 2/3 majority is required to expel. berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #90

No it doesn't! lagomorph777 Oct 2021 #92

Article 1, Section 5, Clause 2 berni_mccoy Oct 2021 #93

And when she has 1/3 of House Republicans to vote with the Democrats, I'll be impressed. brooklynite Oct 2021 #16

Is that the standard? maxsolomon Oct 2021 #25

Yes: and you'll need roughly 1/3 of the Republicans to join the Democrats to get to 2/3. brooklynite Oct 2021 #42

Well, shit. It's not happening, and AOC knows it. maxsolomon Oct 2021 #62

The way your previous post reads I think you may be right. hadEnuf Oct 2021 #67

Where are you getting that? That's not what it says at all. lagomorph777 Oct 2021 #88

I'll rely on Speaker Pelosi's judgement. brooklynite Oct 2021 #117

I suspect most of the country will be disappointed in the outcome. lagomorph777 Oct 2021 #118

In THAT regard, I suspect the average voter doesn't care... brooklynite Oct 2021 #125

No problem. In a few years, there will be no voters. lagomorph777 Oct 2021 #127

If true, so what? Hold the vote anyway ecstatic Oct 2021 #116
