Game on, It is time to begin impeachment hearings. It is no longer a choice.

Barr committed perjury, obstruction of justice and he must resign.


I have never seen so many people ( Republicans) who don't care if they get caught lying or breaking the law. They have become extremely dangerous. The Democrats must start impeachment hearings and start charging people with crimes. Our democracy is in big trouble.

Trump and his people must be put on trial and you do that with impeachment hearings. It's time people.

At this point, we have all the evidence we need.

On Trump, I'm not there quite yet, though I should clarify that I am there on starting the investigations, just not on drafting and voting on articles of impeachment yet. There's still far too much left to investigate thoroughly that we all know we should expect to merit inclusion in such articles, but about which we still need to investigate further.

gives the House massive investigative powers they don't have now to get all the info on Trump they need. After an inquiry was started on Nixon it led to a loss of support in the senate getting enough votes to convict, which forced him to resign. Same will happen with Trump who is far more corrupt. Last time Pelosi failed to even hold an impeachment inquiry with Bush and it cost us the House. There is no good reasons not to hold an impeachment inquiry at least. It's way past time. It will do more damage to Democrats not to impeach at this point because of Trump's blatant criminal behavior, his family's conspiracy to enrich themselves at the expense of national security and the emoluments clause. We must not make assumptions on how senators will react before they see all the evidence. An impeachment inquiry will expose all Trump's actions before the public and public opinion will create huge pressure on the senate to convict just like it did Nixon forcing him to resign. Trump will also be forced to resign or go to prison. Pelosi has no excuse so why is she giving us one? Begin an impeachment inquiry now.

why not spine, backbone or guts since both men and women have them and mean the same thing.

Besides, if we want to use genitalia as a symbol of toughness, we should be using the vagina...

Simple message :

It's time for them to get on board with Impeachment. It's LONG past time, in fact.

And if not now, when?

How much worse does it have to get?
