How Republicans Are Trying to Make Trump's Two Impeachments Disappear

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

House Republicans are moving to expunge President Donald Trump’s two impeachments from the House record, reopening a constitutional fight over whether a later House can repudiate one of the most serious powers ever used against a president.

Rep. Darrell Issa, a California Republican, has introduced a resolution that would expunge both House impeachments of Trump, treating them as if the articles had never passed the chamber.

The measure, H.Res. 1211, targets Trump’s 2019 impeachment over his dealings with Ukraine and his 2021 impeachment after the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Trump was acquitted by the Senate in both cases.

The resolution was introduced April 23 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee, according to congressional bill records. It is sponsored by Issa and lists 22 Republican cosponsors.

These folks need to take their noses out of Trump's ass.

1. We needed 67 votes to convict.

We were way over the top. You add the impeachments together and ignore the negative votes because we met the threshold. Let the GOP squawk. They'd do the same.

2. That's all this Republican Congress can do

They can’t pass meaningful legislation even though the country has mountains of problems.

Republicans want to destroy the rule of law. They want to deny history. They are destroying our country.

Fuck ‘em. November can’t get here soon enough.
