Jodie This is what happens when people aren’t held accountable for their crimes. They feel empowered to continue being unlawful. Let’s hope they stop being so soft & start holding these criminals accountable, including for contempt.

Luke Zaleski The truth is trump should’ve been convicted in both impeachments. He should’ve been compelled to comply more with the mueller probe before that. He shouldn’t have been in office to mishandle the Covid response. And even absent all that he should’ve been removed by 6 pm on Jan 6th.
