TRUMP HAS COMMITTED TREASON CALLING THE MILITARY TO ATTACK ITS OWN CITIZENS.
A U.S. President can be removed from office for committing treason through impeachment, which involves the House of Representatives bringing charges and the Senate holding a trial.
Treason is a serious offense, defined by the Constitution as levying war against the United States or adhering to its enemies by giving them aid and comfort.
While no U.S. president has ever been impeached or convicted of treason, the Constitution explicitly names it as a grounds for impeachment, alongside bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors…and let’s face it, they have all accepted bribes and have committed high crimes and mesdemenors.
As much as I agree that Trump deserves to be impeached now more than ever, there is 0% chance it would work at this point. Here's the super short version of the logic why it won't work:
They (GOP/Trump enablers) are too deep in now to stop. If they impeach Trump today and this house of cards collapses, there's a ton of Republicans that will need to answer for the stuff they enabled, criminally. From disappearing immigrants and citizens, to acts of violence and endangerment by federal agents, to the pay to play stuff with Adams in NYC where they tried to get his support by floating dropping the case against him, etc. The list is massive now. I was warning about this months ago, there was a Rubicon that once crossed they (GOP) could never go back. That line was crossed long ago (around the time the first masked thugs showed up). So, there is absolutely no chance that Trump gets impeached at this point unless we have a clear super majority on our side, and we're nowhere close to it. So, any talk of impeachment is wasted effort better spent elsewhere.
Yes, I agree it would take some major changes—an election or release of the E files—and I keep hoping. The trouble is that Vance would be in charge and who knows what idiocy that would bring. And of course that also leaves Mike second in line. Oh for the old GOP of Dwight Eisenhower!
Exactly. I don’t see a solution at the end of the Impeachment Path. Even if you impeached Johnson, then it goes to the band of idiots in the cabinet… Can you imagine Bessent as president?
Lukium offers some wonderful ideas here to fight against Trump regime. (For those who are still wondering what to do!) Please check them out and join the Resistance.
I would love to write my representatives. But I live in a red state with all gop reps and senators. What good will it do to write them? I also agree the Dems should shut down the government, can’t believe they didn’t do it the first time!
And try to ignore them and the latest unchecked atrocity. Huh? Isn’t that surrender? No. Get busy organizing a US. Nobody will stop them for us. Surprise is a tactic of the enemy. You can prepare for potential surprises in store. You can organize a force. We can. Shock divides.
Certainly. Divided individuals who experience each change with visceral outrage that passes with the morning’s coffee, cannot respond but by becoming mute and unfeeling.
If there is to be a reasonable and consistent response, it comes from a group with a consistent identity.
That is in part of the main goals of the American Manifesto: to unite people with the same core ideas of what we should strive for, to clarify those ideas, and to plan how to bring about such a society.
Well written my friend .

This might be the time for impeachment to finally work—the worst President ever deserves the first successful impeachment. It would be historic.

Perhaps he already is—a shadow President. Someone is certainly behind all this chaos.

Pick a Dem Rep and 2 Dem Senators and do the same thing…
That seems to be the case

I'm not sure what you're replying to. You're welcome to elaborate, but as it stands, I'm not certain of what you're trying to say.
Certainly. Divided individuals who experience each change with visceral outrage that passes with the morning’s coffee, cannot respond but by becoming mute and unfeeling.

Make an us first and then we can respond to them.

Vis pacem, para bellum.
Could not agree more.
