It's heartening the leadership firewall against any talk of impeachment is breaking down, because it's so delusionally out of touch with reality. Either you mean what you say about the current anti-constitutional crime spree or you don't, and if you do, impeachment is the unavoidable implication.
Yes, I'm taking the first step towards Noem's impeachment.

I demand a full investigation into Secretary Noem's unlawful actions and unethical behavior. The people will have accountability.

The constitutional remedy for a president who attempts to abuse the pardon power to infringe on state rights is impeachment.
NEW: Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser (D) says Colorado will not release Tina Peters after President Trump announced he is pardoning her state-level convictions.

"This is a lawless act. It's an act of intimidation," Weiser said. "It has no basis in the American law."

This whole thing should simply be a commercial. Frankly, if the Democrats have any sense at all, they will take this clip and pay to air it, unedited, across 90 seconds of Superbowl airtime
Magaziner: How many US military veterans have you deported?

Noem: We have not deported military veterans.

Magaziner: We are joined on zoom by a gentleman who is an army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country. You deported him to Korea.

A prosecutor getting no billed once is embarrassing. Twice suggests deep incompetence. Three times... and you should be looking for a new career.

BREAKING: Indiana Republicans FAILED to pass a new 9-0 congressional gerrymander after enough GOP senators sided with Dems. The GOP's 7-2 map stays in place.

Trump is trying to re-gerrymander maps nationwide. At least 11 Indiana Rs got death threats after he called for primaries—but it still failed

in particular i’m struck by like, how clearly so many people’s understanding of how regulation and law work is “no, you only need to ban the bad stuff that my enemies do, and not the good stuff that my friends do” even when, from a mechanical perspective, these are the same thing

at some point people are going to wake up and realize that, yeah, the libertarians actually have substantial valid points about how regulation and innovation work, and that screaming about "waaah the corporations make everything bad" is just as juvenile as anything else

Upon his confirmation, I said I sincerely hoped Judge Bove would prove his critics wrong. But from a confirmation party hosted by rabid MAGA provocateurs to attending a Trump political rally, he has leaned into proving his fundamental unfitness.

The Royal Cambodian Air Force does not have any fighter aircraft. The Royal Cambodian Army does, however, have heavy artillery, and schools and hospitals on the Thai side have been affected.
The ceasefire between Thailand and Cambodia is over and both sides are sliding towards open war along their disputed border. Today Thailand has been striking Cambodian positions with F16s, drones and mortar.

Another one Trump was supposed to have “solved”.
