Where do I sign?

Signing a petition is good. But having a concrete plan and working to implement it is essential.

Don't believe anyone, even if it's Sarah and Jason, who say that " the impeachment effort has no realistic chance of happening while Republicans control the House of Representatives" and "there is zero chance that he would be convicted in the Senate."

Do Not Surrender In Advance. The stakes are too high.

Impeachment is the only way to stop this President, whose next move will almost certainly be to defy the courts.

Not every Republican Senator and Representative is MAGA. Most are actually moderates who've been too timid to act. That is changing.

We need to lead our "leaders", and work to bring about the impeachment of the President and Vice President, as well as the removal and replacement of Speaker Mike Johnson.

To learn what more can be done to remove the Speaker and Impeach the President and Vice President, please see these posts from FeathersOfHope.net :

It’s fantasy to think any republicans at all would vote for impeachment. Not gonna happen. They’re all spineless MAGA weasels.

I agree. But just to have it in writing will piss him off and I am for that… following protocol is a pain but should be done..

Wast of time and money, just to try to hurt someone's feelings. I'm sure every president will have to go through this from now on...just because people will disagree with them. This is so sad. I wish we could all just learn how to deal with our emotions and move forward instead of crying and stomping our feet.

Semolina, there are 218 Republicans in the House of Representatives. I understand why you would assert that "They’re all spineless MAGA weasels." That's your anger and frustration speaking. But it is demonstrably not true.

If we're going to defend our country against a coup d'état, which is where we are at this point, we have to be more precise about who is the enemy and who may be potential allies. Like it or not, we need moderate Republican allies right now. And they do exist.

The House Republican Conference is fractured so deeply that they have called themselves the "Five Families" -- a reference to warring mafia families. At the very least, we can distinguish between MAGA extremists, traditional far-right conservatives, centrist moderates, and libertarians. Then there are anti-Russia hawks supporting NATO and Ukraine, who may be found in any of the non-MAGA groups.

Respectfully, I'd suggest researching the records of individual Members of the House before dismissing all 218 as being indistinguishable from Lauren Boebert.

As Vice President Kamala Harris implored on November 5:

"Don't ever give up. Don't ever stop trying to make the world a better place. You have power. You have power. And don't you ever listen when anyone tells you something is impossible because it has never been done before.

. . . This is not a time to throw up our hands. This is a time to roll up our sleeves!"

I think you may have misunderstood me, Semolina. I said there are "potential allies" among moderate Republicans. The task of persuading them to join in an Impeachment effort is not easy, but it's also not impossible -- unless we don't even try.

Not everyone wants to try. Fine, I get that. But I don't get why anyone would want to actively discourage those of us who are trying. The way I see it, if Donald Trump remains President for the next 20 months there will be precious little of our Democratic Republic left to save.

So if there's another way to stop him, what is it?

Here's a partial list of potential Republican allies. If you'd like more information about any of them, I'd be happy to provide it. If you'd like me to name another ten, I can.

People should really know how impeachment works.

You want to blame Dems? Blame the 7 million Dems who voted for Biden in 2020 but didn’t show up for Harris. Or flipping Congress Blue. They are ultimately the ones to blame for Trump & MAGAts.

Did they? Or were they purged? Seems an investigation has shown most of those mail in votes purged were Democratic. Thus the attacks on Dejoy, and the USPS. In an effort to move it to the internet, who has been handed over to Musk’s Starlink,who's agenda is to link all countries,easier to spy. Then the Nutralink, brain chip that can be manipulated by computers and phones.

“Seems like” or did? Do you have a link to this/these investigation(s)?

I think there are a lot of people who don’t understand, but that’s ok, we can learn! As they learn they depend on Al Green. I know people think it’s not possible because of the votes. But nobody really knows what is going on in the heads of those republicans So we can pray and hope that a few will have the courage to vote against him.

4 million were purged from the voter rolls. 1.5 million ballots were rejected. So you can blame the 1m5 million that didn't vote.

If Democrats take over the House and Senate and Trump gets impeached, can we impeach Vance and Johnson as well? And if they are all taken out of power, who does that leave to lead our country? Because the people that are all in power now have no business being there.

Expand full comment

Remember that impeachment in the House needs only a simple majority, but conviction and removal by the Senate requires a 2/3 supermajority, 67 Senators if there are no vacancies. There's no way it happens without Republican votes. Even if Trump somehow gets so far out there that some R's join in pushing him out, that would surely be the end of it; we'd have President Vance.

Still strictly the right thing to do, in any case.

Expand full comment

Remember that articles of impeachment will go absolutely nowhere in the House of Representatives unless the Speaker of the House is involved!

Expand full comment

You are absolutely right Luana. The other thing to remember is that Impeachment will be successful only if a critical mass of Republicans joins the effort. It takes 9 Republicans to remove the Speaker.

That does not mean we should surrender in advance. It means we must work very hard to persuade moderate Republicans (of whom there are many) to honor their oath of office. It's not an easy task. But let's not refuse to even try.

I can’t say what I think 🤔 so be it! But what I can say is if impeachment did work that would mean more balance even if Vance steps in why? Vance isn’t popular in house or in public! Neither is Bible Mike! Divide would possibly let up or fade!

Expand full comment

Never...going...to happen.

Expand full comment

Yes.

Vance can, and should be, also impeached. That could leave us with Mike Johnson as acting President. He can also be replaced, preferably before the impeachment process, by a more moderate (R). Currently that would require 9 (R) congressmen to call for him to be replaced. If the process is commenced after midterms, there’s a good chance the House can be flipped.

Flipping the Senate is rated as less likely, as currently estimated, but as more Trump induced pain is inflicted on citizens in red states, that can change. There are already some (R) senators quietly on the fence, or strong Ukraine supporters who might get there.

People (many people), will say impeachment “can’t happen”. Don’t believe it !! As more and more of the electorate sees Trump as a monster, AND communicate that to their Senators, more senators will decide they don’t want their careers to go down with Trump’s sh*t (oops, I clearly meant “ship”).

Trump’s willingness to advance the demands of Putin on the behalf of Russia’s illegal, brutal heinous war against Ukraine, while attempting to intimidate President Zelensky into a capitulation”peace deal” which will more resemble the coerced surrender of a friendly democratic allied state, particularly by withholding support that was already approved by Congress and enroute to being delivered is enough to warrant a charge of treason. My depth of contempt for this excuse for a man and his ally-insulting, election-interfering vice President is astonishing, even for me.

Garland failed. Ill never understand why. That was the time to remove him forever. Now its too little too late. Go for it but nobody should hold their breath.

I don’t think he felled as Jack Smith stated Garland stated after he was in office and getting delays getting paperwork was a nightmare read his statement about it was very enlightening. Garland did everything correctly, and he started early even before Congress had asked him to and then of course Trump, the delay king of the United States in the courts and then everybody refusing to speak the whole thing , but with what I understood he started pretty early. I could be incorrect, but I believe that’s what the prosecutor Jack Smith said.

IMPEACH THIS UNELECTED RUSSIAN MOLE

Expand full comment

I absolute believe he should be impeached.

1. He has failed to honor his oath of office and has dishonored the position he holds. He has the responsibility to enforce the laws of the country but has instead broken them by impounding funds appropriated by congress 2. He has destroyed the moral authority of this country by his obscene behavior toward our allies 3. He has ignored the Budapest accord 4. He has shown favoritism toward war criminals, issuing an executive order to protect Netanyahu and siding with Russia in the UN vote on Ukraine 5. He has insisted on taking over Greenland when its not for sale, has talked about Canada as a 51st state, with depravity threatened the people of Gaza with death if they don’t leave via truth social 6. He has publicized his intention to take Gaza and develop it, publishing a depraved video 7. He has allowed Elon Musk to access government information without the appropriate security check, putting the personal information of millions of Americans at risk 8. He openly said Musk was in charge of DOGE (a misnomer) but lied to the courts this was not the case 9. He allowed and even encouraged Musk to gut agencies with only pretextual reasoning - there has been no evidence given, just lies like the dei for burma and the condoms for gaza 10. He has terminated people for spite and for revenge and/or because he didn’t think them loyal to him 11. He has destroyed USAid and removed adequate staffing from parks 12. He created the emergency to clearcut public land with his tarriff on Canada 13. He made a joke out the cabinet with the complicity of congress by appointing loyalists with agendas that go against the meaning of americs 14. There is blatant corruption, closing down agencies with investigative power (and investigations) over his friends 15. He had put americans at risk by the gutting of the cdc 16. Acted against the constitution by restricting freedom of speech, freedom of the press

There are so many more things but I have run out of time.

Trump should have been impeached the first time. The Republicans are hiding so there is no possibility impeachment will happen now. However, MAGA and the Republicans and the Oligarchy needs to know that we, the People. will resist fiercely and despots to defend the Constitution and our Democracy.
