    1. Sure things like….open borders for rogues n covid infested outsiders plus cancelling pipelines…oh almost forgot AND the promise of $200

    2. You can’t impeach someone who is not president .They going against the constitution. They should be sued for defamation

    3. @Marie-Flo Reddy you’re right. $200 wouldn’t be much. Thank goodness it’s going to be $1,400 individually. That’s much better than $200. 😁
      Also, have you seen our numbers? WE’RE the Covid infested. Mexico actually closed their border to US for a while bc we were so covid infected.
      But, you’re right about the pipeline. Another win! For the environment and future generations.

  1. Thank you, Chuck Schumer, for standing up to the bully at a very early stage of his tenure. This is a critical moment in US history. How was it let happen?

    1. You can’t impeach someone who is not president .They going against the constitution. They should be sued for defamation

    2. @ada2step The process is to stop him from holding office in the future. Trump was only ever interested in Trump Inc.

    1. Where was ur indignation when trump NEVER wore a mask? You repubs are the definition of hypocrisy. Unbelievable

  2. Trump picked a fight with the wrong woman. Pelosi was not impressed by his tantrums, lies and menacing, his trial starts now.

    1. Jeff Antilla – If that had happened we’d now be living in the Divided States of Trump or freezing out booties off in a Siberian Gulag!!

  3. Dems need to act now. Only 2 years away from elections that could reassign balance of power. The people voted to give Dems the House, Senate & Presidency. Act now!

    1. Have to vote in off year elections as redistricting happens at the state level. if you don’t vote, you are letting other people dictate what happens to you.

    1. It’s a different Senate as of two weeks ago, they snatched the Grim Reaper’s scythe, the flies buzzing about him have more power than he does now, he’s really been pouting.

    2. You can’t impeach someone who is not president .They going against the constitution. They should be sued for defamation

  4. Good.
    Multitasking is sort of the minimal level requirement for an executive of pretty much any sizable organization.

    Unfortunately the first year of Biden’s Administration is going to largely consist of undoing Trump’s damage and negligence

    1. There’s a lot of work to be done.
      But with aggresive legislation and action we’ll be back on track within 2-5 years.
      And that will be deemed incredible if we attain that.
      Read up on Roosevelt’s New Deal.
      It was an answer to the monies it took for WWI. And redirecting them into projects that not only began the rise of our Nation to top shelf status, but the Hoover Dam and our infrastructure was rebuilt…those jobs lasted long into the 70s.

    2. The difference is they have a top notch team of extremely dedicated and experienced people, no one was granted a position just incase Joe needed someone to make him feel good. They have a lot of work to do, but I feel they are all 100% up to the chore.

  5. The Covid relief delays have been a disaster.
    The first impeachment was a catastrophe.
    If you screw up the next one, prepare to face the music.

    1. The delays lol how long have they been in and any delays are due to the trump admin. The first impeachment was screwed up because of the spineless rep’s as this one will be.

    2. @John Mcsorley You dont know that wicked nancy pelosi held up our stimulus? It’s on 60mins TV show, she admitted she did

  6. Great!! Rah-Rah, sis-boom-bah!! Now quit talking about this ‘bold’ new plan and DO IT!! LIKE YESTERDAY, EH?!?!

  7. Love the save our stages masks…..artists have been overlooked during this pandemic when we really should lift them up being that most people turn to art in times like this

  8. LOL, what a liar. He already knows that Trump will be acquitted. Complete ignorance and hatred from the left continues. 10% for the Big Guy.

  9. FACT: The Constitution is clear that impeachment is a remedy to be used to remove a sitting President, NOT a past President.
    FACT: The Constitution is clear that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is too reside over an impeachment trial.
    FACT: Just because you HATE Trump doesn’t mean you can make up any rules/laws you want!!
