Voters want impeachment and a progressive policy agenda. House leaders have another idea.
When people say that Democrats should unify, the part they leave out is most important: Around what? Nearly everyone in Washington seems to assume that progressives should shut up, accept their place, and unify around the status quo.
Think about what an arrogant and preposterous request that is. Progressive leaders, including our representatives in Congress, should abandon all of our policy positions and sell out our voters to please the Democratic establishment. Saying hell no to that would be an enormous understatement.
If Democratic leaders dont want to fight Donald Trump, thats their problem, not ours. We signed up to rout him and send him home. If youre not on board with that, get out of the way and let us do it. Democratic voters were clear in 2018 that they want Mr. Trump impeached. Yet again last week Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her allies blocked an opportunity by tabling Rep. Al Greens resolution.
Unlike Mr. Green, I dont think we need to discuss President Trumps political or racial ideology to favor impeachment. The president has clearly committed two crimes. Robert Muellers report outlines double-digit instances of obstruction of justice. Thats a felony. Michael Cohen confirmed that Mr. Trump worked with him to pay hush money to Stormy Daniels in violation of campaign-finance lawsa crime for which Mr. Cohen is in prison.

Democratic powder to fight Republicans is forever dry. Detention centers without any constraints? Check. Defeating an amendment to prohibit the Pentagon from housing kids at the military facilities? Check. Continuing to let Mr. Trump run roughshod through a House the Democrats control is an abdication of responsibility.
Democrats have been surrendering to the GOP for as long as I have been alive.

I disagree with this. Uygur is either deluded, lying, or more likely a bit of both with more weight to lying. The Democrats used the similar strategy for 2018 they used in 2006 (lies about what they would do in Congress once they won). It was helped by a bunch of feckless House Republican incumbents who bailed because they did not respect the will of the voters in 2016.
Democrats Should Unify Behind AOC, Not Pelosi [Fun read from crazed moonbat!]
4D Chess. :D
Remember, Progs talk only to other Progs, an echo chamber, so in their little minds EVERYBODY THINKS LIKE THEY DO................
No, this guy is a well known Moonbat..............
See his shows meltdown on election night 16. Classic
:D
I agree, but I sincerely hope the D’s take his advice. :)
The Young Jerks get what they deserve...........................
Seeing a piece from him makes me happy for their paywall
You mean he is the old fat Turk.
I agree totally. That would give America a clear choice and the rats would lose.
It’s fun to read just how insane, deranged and separated from reality they are.
He is a dirtbag or dirtbags..............
Progs talk only to other Progs, so everyone he knows loves AOC and her Communist Policies...............
Actually its Old Nuts vs New Nuts.
The New Nuts is much more dangerous.
He needs to lay off the couscous and baklava...............
Cenk Uygur is not a “crazed moonbat” He is a committed communist.
I never know how to pronounce his name. Is it “Chank”, “Chenk”, “Tank”? And what about the last name? “Ugger”?
Just an observation, I don’t want to misprounce names, but never know how to refer to this guy.
Democrats have been surrendering to the GOP for as long as I have been alive.

He lives in an upside down world.
My thoughts exactly! Relevant to the “Trump is an idiot” thread, I remember Cenk from Election Night! Delightful.
