Yeah, there’s no debate.

Just a bunch of people who are in this moment doing the right thing. Except wait, are there some who aren’t?

Those aren’t clowns, Grum! Those are the Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee and they are fruitlessly attempting to shut down the  constitutional process of Impeachment through drug-addled, empty-headed rhetoric!

Quite why, apart from tribalism, corruption and/or Black Mail,  the Republicans continue to defend an obviously guilty President is starting to go beyond the pale for their Democratic colleagues.

But alas, these sweet words will do nothing to assuage Republicans who feel attacked for one of their own for simply the act of being caught for doing crimes. Republicans will vote as they will and Trump will be impeached.

But then, there are now rumors that Mitch McConnell will simply move to acquit Trump in the Senate without calling witnesses.

Ah haha haha  haaaaa. Our system is a farce.

We may have to march again, peeps. I feel like this is an inevitability. Watch http://www.trumpisnotabovethelaw.org/ and other social media posts like this:

The bigger these marches are, the harder it will be for Trump to pretend he hasn’t been caught in a botched bribery scheme and that millions of American now see him as a liar and a fraud. So text PROTEST to 21333 to find a march near you. pic.twitter.com/iIpNczjWC6
