To anyone who says we shouldn't be pressuring Democratic members of congress to fight, I only have this to say - the oath they took did not say "...to protect and defend the Constitution the next time we're in the majority."

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

Glad to hear we’ll be able to start impeachment proceedings well ahead of schedule. If only we can get the Senate to convict.
Trump will do ANYTHING to prevent resignations bc that means he has already lost. That he will not tolerate. If no one resigns, it must mean that he has assured them that the election is already in the bag, by cheating, for Republicans.

I also think supporting violent fascists at arm’s length, just enough to provide yourself implausible deniability, helping you lie to yourself at night when you try to sleep on your ketamine-free nights, qualifies you as a Nazi and a fascist.

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.
