It was an act of insurrection.

Tell the goons that.:D

Only takes a few seconds for him to access the nuclear codes in a hissy fit. There's a real security risk, he's unstable.

One of the 40 people arrested to date required a Russian interpreter.

Would be interesting to know if any spies got in and what (of any) mischief they would have gotten up to. Bugging Nancy Pelosi's office would make for an interesting listen, and I'd assume the Vice President (as President of the Senate) has some kind of room/office within the building although would rarely be present.

I read a thread on Twitter (I know, I know) and it went into great length about the cyber security implications of devices being bugged or the potential for rogue firmware being installed on 'smart' devices, etc.

Fine line between giving in to them and simply not provoking them further and I think, perhaps by accident more than design, papa may have found the latter.

What an absolutely pointless move but nothing surprises me with the dumb Democrats. It takes two thirds majority in the Senate for the impeachment to have any effect, Republican Senators of which there is still 50, some may entertain it but not all of them, certainly not more than 17. Remember some of them will be running again in the Mid terms.

But the dumb Democrats - On one hand they plea for unity to Trump's base and then they go try to do something really dumb that will not lead to anything, except more tension with his base that will only get them more fired up, absolute dummies who have nothing else better to do.

Apparently they can disqualify him from public office on a straight majority. The ultimate humiliation for a man reported to have contemplated a 2024 run announcement to coincide with the inauguration.

No they cannot - Impeachment in any form requires Senate vote too.

The dumb Democrats will soon have control of Congress the Senate and the Presidency. Not so dumb after all?

Who are dumb are the Republicans following Trump. He's destroyed the party for the foreseeable future. A shame as every democracy needs a decent opposition.

That’s why I didn’t say impeachment - I said disqualify him from public office.

FWIW I’m not convinced it’s an effective use of time/effort for someone who won’t run in 2024.

So what 'evil' things has she done? Only one person caused the fire, and 4 deaths, and we know who that is.

5 deaths, one of whom was a member of DC Capitol Police.
