George Conway post on Bluesky today

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

Their lack of integrity is overwhelming. Lest republicans forget the 34 time convicted felon and adjudicated rapist is the “leader” of their party. And they continue to do nothing?

Reason and logic would indicate that his criminality place him at risk as he commits another offense against our country, our democracy, and the rule of law each and every day. The recent election had Democrats winning in large numbers. Republicans are leaving their elected positions, his approval ratings are tanking, and his mental decline is on full display daily. The numbers are not in his favor, and he is likely harming the Republican party (please God).

How is he able to remain in office without serious resistance? Darned if I know.

was murdered long ago. During (and ever since) the lying "B-list" actor's maladministrations (Ronnie Raygun) the republican party has gotten progressively more heinous, by exponential numbers, ever since. They've finally scraped the bottom of the GOP barrel with Trump, though.

Cheney made $39.5B for his near-bankrupt company through no-bid contracts. Both of those fkers should have been hanged in The Hague.

Halliburton.... (Cheney INC)..... and five other U.S. Oil companies divided up Iraq for themselves.....IRAQ had nothing to do with 9/11, almost all the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia........

WBush was a brain wasted drunk/drug addict......Just a pawn.....It was the Cheney/ Rumsfeld CABAL with HWBush advising from the side lines....

The latest figures on all the TOTAL costs of their IRAQ war is TWO TRILLON DOLLARS AND STILL CLIMBING.....

So, I am loading my groceries in my vehicle in a Safeway parking lot, two guys were standing behind the pickup next to me. The truck had a vanity plate, a Colorado "Heritage?" license plate.......One was bragging to the other guy about being qualified to get the plate. I couldn't resist..........
I asked him what the "Heritage?" plate meant.....he proudly stated that it meant his family had at least four generations in Colorado, and that his relatives in Colorado went back to at least the mid 1800's.

So I said: So you are celebrating the fact, indirectly, that your relatives were responsible for murdering between 30 to 60 Million of MY relatives???????????
The two of them stood there with a weird, some what quizzical look on their faces, totally speechless.
I said I want you to think about that FACT every time you look at one of those plates, including your plate, and
I just walked off..........

ALL Dems need to understand that EVERYTHING that spews out of Trump or any Republican is:

#1 A flagrant and blatant lie

#2 Pure Hyposcrisy every time

#3 Not in any way realistic or factual in the slightest......

That would fall under Article 9 of the Constitootion, which gives the executive the exclusive power to wag the dog piggy.

So where are they...???

Starting a war without the consent of Congress is against the Constitution. A member of Congress, R or D, should stand up and SCREAM - "You do that, a motion to impeach will immediately be made."

I wonder if something that tyrannical, that unconstitutional, that unlawful, will get anywhere with today's Republican Party?

But do it anyway! Let's see who the Republican Party really is. Get it on record.
