    Can’t wait for Peter Thiel’s good little doggy to be president. I’m sure this will smooth over neatly.

    Everyone is throwing the impeachment around like it means something, again. With majority republican Senate, the pedophile being impeached for a third time will just be another notch in the belt for him as he will take it with pride because Senate will most definitely acquit him, again.

    This time is different; however, because it won’t even make past House to get to Senate since he has his greatest admirer Mike “I know nothing” Johnson in charge. The pedophile made sure all the cards are in his favor this time around, and it certainly shows.

      It’s particularly funny for the attack to be against Schumer who is in the Senate and impeachment starts in the House.

      Hakeem Jeffries is House minority leader.

        You are correct however schumer is still worthy of critique and emphasis. It only requires a low effort response like: “Within my capability, I’ll make sure we have cooesponding support in the Senate if the house introduces it.”

    See here’s the thing. we have tried that “impeachment and removal” thing twice already. It is a waste of time if the senate won’t commit to the removal part.

      You guys have done the impeachment thing, but it stalled before it got to the removal part.

      Y’all gotta follow through on the entire process.

    Schumer is a hardcore Zionist and always has been. He won’t publicly express it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s delighted to see what Trump is trying to do to Iran.

    I’m surprised he didn’t jump right on it after seeing the terms of surrender we agreed to with Iran.

    If those stand I am legitimately a little concerned that Israel might try to nuke Iran because Iran will exit all of this in a much stronger position than it entered and that’s bad news for the genocide gang.

    Schumer is useless, but the Senate doesn’t impeach.

    And they make it sound like impeachment would work, but anybody with a couple brain cells knows it won’t. He was impeached twice for actual crimes and went on to get elected again, you think impeaching him for threatening language is going to work?

    This is just another story based on tweets.

            I get the frustration but what I would hear is “Let’s waste time doing another failed impeachment that solidifies Trump’s position, makes us look stupid and costs us in the midterms.”

            Trumps defense would be that he has free speech in negotiations and all people would hear for a month is that Democrats are putting free speech on trial, a sentiment Republicans already hold.

    Democrats now are the Republicans of 30 years ago. Everything has moved to the fucking right…and Chuck Shumer sucks corporate cock just like the Republicans.

      Yeah but 40 years ago the dems were trying to out “tough on crime” the GOP by asking for even harsher mandatory minimums (which involved one Senator Joseph Robinette Biden). Actually I’m pretty sure this was also going on to a certain extent in the 90s as well.

      Dems have always found ways to suck and it’s not just because of where the Overton window is sitting currently.
