well, at least the precedent has been set to dismiss ALL future impeachments against Trump should the GOP take the Senate ...

Other than The Meritless Garland, Ditch has a very mediocre history.

Ha! You mean ... that *should* be his legacy.

His legacy is sealed, now.

He’s CCP owned.

Everyone on FR knows this. Well, with an exception.

Words on air, bla, bla, bla. He’s got to send him a letter as strongly worded as the speech. VERY strongly worded. Yeah, I know it probably goes in the Congressional Record, but who reads that.

Mayorkass is a Castro Cuban who has no business being the head of the farcical Department of Homeland Security. I imagine if Nikita Khrushchev was still alive, Jo Jo would have given him the job instead of Mayorkass.

Completely laughable, coming from the compromised fool who didn’t stop the Trump impeachments.

The Senate has no power to "stop impeachments" and a trial is required when impeachment occurs and impeachment articles are transmitted to the Senate by the House. That was the entire point of this article.

That’s exactly right. If Biden were impeached, this would have been the same result. What did this mayorkas impeachment vote get in the house - zero Democrats?

Republicans accede to all of their demands and Demonstrate do not budge an inch to Republicans on anything. “Durrr, let’s expel George Santos to show how fair-minded we are. Robert Menendez who?”

Stupid Party

Schumer out maneuvered the Republicans exposing their embarrassing weakness. No one should be surprised by ruthless Democrats using whatever means necessary to acquire power. If only our side had a killer instinct.

Well, because we don’t play hardball, Merrick Garland is now a crooked AG instead of a life-time appointed SCOTUS Justice.

Thank who?

Ok so he’s not SCOTUS. Thank McConnell.

Seriously. Do you think there was any heavy lifting involved when they put it off? Did the majority of Americans object? Most didn’t care.

It’s better having him at AG rather than there Supremes where he can’t get laid off.
