I am so disappointed in those 11 Dems. Your update was spot on!! Crap!

I saw one Dem had undergone a medical procedure that had been scheduled well before any impeachment vote was set and another (and possibly more) was detained by traffic from a car accident. There may have been good reasons the others missed the vote and of course the Rs didn’t want to give them a chance to get there. I don’t know all their reasons, but don’t give up hope yet. January is coming! :)

Laughing uproariously with you about the redistricting effort! It’s so interesting that to win the election, the Dems focused on deliberately choosing and supporting interesting candidates – while the GOP tried to cheat its way to victory with redrawn maps and rewriting election laws.

Being prosecuted for war crimes is substantially harsher than a slap on the wrist impeachment🤨

Give them a break. Alaska and Mississippi aren't used to being “swing states” yet.

The GOP obviously has not learned a thing by the repudiation of all things trump in the recent election. They are doubling down on the stupidity with both the appointment of Steven Miller as COS, and the election of Gym Jordan as minority leader.

At this point, I truly have more faith in the state legislatures.

There is no way on God's green Earth that Trump wrote that letter to Biden. Not only can he not put three sentences together, but he would have had zero interest in doing it to start with. Some junior staffer with access to the internet copied off something in the archives...

Trump should not be allowed at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

I'm disappointed as well. But they will get him hopefully in January. They are all on the chopping block. Trump’s clown car.

Looks really good for Scott Colom to win his race in Mississippi as early as today. Yay!

I think the highlight of the midterms was how the republicans illegal, unethical, and racially biased gerrymanders failed them. Historically. That was like the cherry on top of the sundae. Yummy.

“We went right back to being fed up and pissed off.” 100%

Re, Tom Emmer…can we investigate the shit out of this MF?

Subpeana, his family, aids, donors? Just for fun?

Or are we expecting a series of Traffic jams?

Dems get your shit together ?

I hate to sound like a negative Nellie, but they (MAGA, Republicans) still have zero intentions of playing by tbe Constitution. The midterms did nothing tk change their trajectory with Project 2025, hence the promotion of Nazi Nosferatu and Gum Jordon to Minority leader. They plan on leading by EO, which will tie up the courts for the next 2 years. Going after the democrats investigating these fascists will also tie up the courts. Nosferatu and Vought are running the show, Mango Meatsweats is pudding for brains and hasn't a clue what's going on and they're keeping him like they did Reagan in his last days

On Trump impeachment, I'll be honest, I was going back & forth with this. I didn't want the GOP to be claiming "We told you so" this is the only reason the democrats wanted to win. As much as I wanted the lame duck 'cheese stands alone', the reality is, if he is NOT impeached in both houses, everyone else will be pardoned. For that reason alone, he's gotta go.
