to see no push for impeachment. It looks like the wait until after the election crowd have won. I see that Adam Schiff has come out and stated basically as much. Waiting until Trump defies a Supreme Court decision will most certainly be after the election.
I read the posts about the horrors of the Trump concentration camps, which to me are grounds for impeachment, and most of the efforts to stop these abuses are coming from outside agencies like the ACLU and others. Our Democratic leaders must do more. Not being allowed to even enter these camps should be unacceptable.
I know, election season is here, it's Steve Kornacki time, and summer recess time is coming for Congress.
Someone needs to step up to the plate. If Speaker Pelosi feels that impeachment is not the way to go, maybe she should cancel the summer recess until Trump's concentration camps are shut down?
Those kids in those camps aren't going on any vacation. Fuck politics, fuck Steve Kornacki, Trump is pushing for war with Iran, and he most certainly will bomb them without any Congressional approval, why wouldn't he, no one holds him accountable.
I'm sorry, I just don't get it. We as Democrats can agree that Donald Trump has done more to deserve impeachment than any of our past 43 presidents, yet we come up with excuses why we shouldn't do it. This is it for me, this is my last push for impeachment, I'm done. I hope the hell I am wrong. I hope I have to apologize for doubting Speaker Pelosi's plan. Peace.

(7,543 posts)When business considerations determined whether the Kashoggi murder was investigated, that's not justice or democracy. When national security advisors are chosen for their business contacts and not their geopolitical acumen, that's not justice or democracy. When cabinet officials are chosen for their outspoken desire to dismantle the federal agencies they are chosen to oversee, that's not justice or democracy. When Jessie Smollet is prosecuted for filing a false harrassment report in Chicago yet Jacob Wohl is not even questioned about filing false report of death threats in Minneapolis, that is neither democracy or justice. When you plan your presidential campaign strategy around a foreign government's attempts to help with hacked data and polling information, that's neither justice or democracy.
Leonord Cohen had it right...
