Liz Cheney statement on why she will vote to impeach Trump.

“On January 6, 2021 a violent mob attacked the United States Capitol to obstruct the process of our democracy and stop the counting of presidential electoral votes. This insurrection caused injury, death and destruction in the most sacred space in our Republic.
“Much more will become clear in coming days and weeks, but what we know now is enough. The President of the United States summoned this mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack. Everything that followed was his doing. None of this would have happened without the President. The President could have immediately and forcefully intervened to stop the violence. He did not. There has never been a greater betrayal by a President of the United States of his office and his oath to the Constitution.
“I will vote to impeach the President.”
The ### is cracking.

Yup. You wanna know which way the cookie is going to crumble, look to the party heavies. When I see Liz Cheney and Mitch McConnell clearing their throats, if I'm Donald Trump I start really getting worried.
They know they've gotta wash this stain off the GOP right now.
A Sea Change is in the winds, I suspect.

They’ll get their cover after the mass arrests this weekend.

It is a tasty bit of irony that the mass arrests NJDEV6warned us about are happening. They just keep arresting the “Patriots”

Speaking of NJDEV6, has anyone seen him since he took off for Washington?
It seems he might have encountered...difficulties, on his return home.

the votes for impeachment, which she probably will, it puts Mitch and his Senate GOP colleagues in a political pickle if they don't even allow a vote to convict him. That would be quite a stain on the GOP in the next election.

He should be impeached and removed from office based on his incitement of the mob and subsequent inaction. However, the calendar is such that it will be impossible to have a trial and conviction prior to January 20th. If even one GOP senator does not consent to an expedited trial, then the trial couldn't start any earlier than the 19th which means Trump couldn't be kicked out before noon on the 20th.
The business of the country is too important to waste further time after the 20th purging Trump after he's already gone. Even delaying the trial for 100 days as has been proposed will leave this cloud hanging over the country.
I personally think that while Trump deserves removal, that while it may be worth the symbolic value of a second impeachment, it probably isn't worth having the actual Senate trial.Trump will never hold federal office as too many conservatives like myself and independents will never make the mistake to hold our collective noses and vote policy over personality. He's done as a viable candidate. Let the state and federal courts get their pound of flesh, but let's have our Congress deal with the issues before us.
Unfortunately, I don't think a man who actually thought Pence could unilaterally steal the election has any insight to make him worried about anything.

These streams of unconsciousness aren't a good look for you.

There was plenty of thought put into it. Point is, toe the line or be canceled. That’s what I learned this week.
