If the House Republicans had any guts, they'd hold an emergency impeachment vote on Trump today.
If the Senate Republicans had any guts, they'd convict Trump of violating the Constitution tomorrow.
The Constitution means nothing it if it can be ignored with impunity.

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now?

Just checking what the standards are these days.

You know the Epstein Files are bad when the orange felon bombs Venezuela, murders their citizens and kidnaps their leader all to distract from his sex crimes with children.

This is what happens when you give a deranged criminal full power instead of sending him to prison.

I first became aware of Orson Welles when I saw his appearances on TV in the early 1980s. I was a little kid at the time. One project of his that I loved was the mystery series Scene of the Crime. I did not see his other work as an actor or director until I was older. #CitizenKane #TCMParty

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.
