The Senate hasn't received articles of impeachment yet, but when they do...

...are there any groups or organizations out there planning marches and protests in Washington demanding Trump's removal?

I doubt it'll do much good to sway spineless, sycophantic and/or terrified of Trump Republican senators to do the right thing, but it's still worth the effort, and I'd definitely want to take part.

The House should impeach him and then not transmit the thing to the Senate. Let The Orange One stew for a while!

...I have a hard time imagining Pelosi going along with that, not unless there's another BIG bombshell that demands investigation that drops while the first articles of impeachment are being drawn up.

..if necessary, when necessary-- perhaps to wait for additional evidence to include in articles such as his [odious traitor's] taxes, a decision now pending with supreme court; wait for pending committee investigations to be formalized.

Speaker Pelosi's acute political acumen is genius, her knowledge of policy and procedural decorum is stunningly apparent and as important... has dealt with those scheming sons of bitches [gop] for decades...I mean, damn-- she gets them every single time; leaves them stunned like a dear in headlights--honestly, it's actually entertaining to watch because their ineptness is predictable. Her service to our country is inmeasureable. As for dotard, damn he thought she was just another woman he can intimidate. She's out maneuvered the whole lot of them including dotard!
