He damaged our allied relationships so badly during the last 4 years and did his best to take down our government. How much confidence will the world have that this wouldn't happen again if he's acquitted now?
What will the ramifications be? An acquittal will certainly have consequences, wouldn't it? What might they be?

I'm really looking forward to moving out of here in a couple of months.

Note: It's no surprise that the fossil fuel industry is silent on this matter.

An anti-tax group funded primarily by billionaires has emerged as one of the biggest backers of the Republican lawmakers who sought to overturn the US election results, according to an analysis by the Guardian.

The Club for Growth’s biggest beneficiaries include Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz, the two Republican senators who led the effort to invalidate Joe Biden’s electoral victory, and the newly elected far-right gun-rights activist Lauren Boebert, a QAnon conspiracy theorist. Boebert was criticized last week for tweeting about the House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s location during the attack on the Capitol, even after lawmakers were told not to do so by police.

The check is not yet in the mail, but nearly 1.6 million Illinois Facebook users can expect to get about $350 each in a landmark privacy lawsuit.

The totals were disclosed in a California federal court Thursday during the final approval hearing for a $650 million class-action settlement over alleged violations of Illinois’ biometric privacy law.

Either your cognitive difficulties have been a life long issue or you're pretending you didn't support his fascist policies and rhetoric. Stop insulting us. Just stop.

had any conversations other than just a few brief words to check on each other during the pandemic. She stopped by the house and I donned a mask to meet her outside. We had our social distancing brief conversation.

Today she said she's thinking about leaving the country and then ranted about how she's not afraid of socialism but she knows we're going to become a Communist country with all the lawlessness.
I asked her if she was referring to the siege on the Capitol Building and the Republicans trying to overturn a free and fair election.

She went ballistic and shouted, "Trump supporters are good people! They would never do such a thing. It was Antifa and BLM. They're taking over our country with their lawlessness and turning us Communist."

By now I've had enough discussions with various Trump supporters since before the 2016 election and plenty of conversations with her to know that nothing I say, no logic I use, no evidence I provide will change her mind.
I turned around and walked away. As I walked into the house I could hear her shouting at the top of her lungs, "That's the problem with this country. No one will listen."

Damn, I'm tired.

Republicans will decide to vote in favor of Impeachment.
I say this because the corporations are weighing in now and members' campaign wallets are already whimpering.
Those who are on corporate leashes due to large donations are being brought up short and told to sit or lose the means to run for office.

A coup would cost Corporate America far more than the election funds they contribute to elected officials who are willing to do their bidding. They're being reigned in by the purse strings.
This is reason to push again for campaign finance reform.

Warning: Don't be fooled by the new demeanor. It's nothing more than a rebranding. Their moral code remains the same and with few exceptions their motives should be closely scrutinized in that regard.
BTW: Those who continued to insist the election was stolen even after the insurgency incited by their leader should be expelled. Every single one of them.

Bush going to war with Iraq over nonexistent weapons of mass destruction in 2003.
Too many lies believed by too many, too many lives lost and too high a price to pay for an exercise in futility.

Trump's "Save America" leadership PAC was started days after Joe Biden was projected to with the Presidency. The PAC raised over $207Million since its inception.

The distribution of funds from this PAC should be thoroughly investigated to determine whether there is a connection between it and the insurgency incited by Trump and supported by the GOP.
