We have a constitutional remedy. And to be effective as a tool for making that case, it would take a whole hell of a lot more members of the house to co-sponsor and a comms operation to support it. And articles drafted against the ALL of the perpetrators.

There is NO DOUBT that impeachable offenses are being committed in plain sight across the executive branch. Failing to make the case to the American people for impeachment in this crisis is a gross dereliction of duty.
