Articles of impeachment were already drafted and introduced in congress by Rep. Al Green last spring- did you know that?

Have you heard anything about it since?

Of course not - they were ignored.

I think it is far more important for elected officials to speak out against the specific harms this administration is committing against the people, and demand congress take action to right those wrongs, rather than seek vengeance (and yes it is vengeance, and nothing else, to pursue a meaningless, futile impeachment without a majority).

Do you actually believe there is a way to stop the regime's insanity...


I guess you weren’t paying attention, but This regime has been stopped, and restrained, numerous times, by both the courts and the people.

No troops deployed in Portland or Chicago
Kilmar Garcia is back on American soil
Republicans were crushed in recent elections- a preview of the midterms

I can't think of a greater moral imperative.


I sure as hell can.

Don Quixote couldn’t think of a greater moral imperative than to do battle with a windmill he was sure was a dragon.

Meanwhile, millions of people’s healthcare costs will double or triple in about six weeks.

Wasting time on an An impeachment inquiry that won’t even get scheduled for a floor debate let alone a vote adds insult to the injury these millions will be suffering.

There will be plenty of time, resources, and most importantly, power and authority to pursue impeachment after the midterms.
