Which serves what purpose?
Waste of political capital for senseless victory.
Release ALL the J6 footage. Autists will figure out what Deep State did.
Impeach Joe for being paid off by China.
Do something actually useful - not senseless gestures.

I propose NO debt ceiling increase until 2 miles of the Trump Wall are being built every day
Now most of us know that Trump was unfairly impeached twice by a partisan, radical, anti-Trump Democrat controlled Congress. I say let the impeachments stand so they can remain a stain on the despicable congressmen who voted for them for all of history.
Expunging the Trump impeachments does more to get the Democrats off the hook for dishonorable conduct than it does to help Trump's reputation.
Besides, this sets a bad precedent. If a future Congress can expunge an impeachment, the entire exercise of impeaching a president becomes worthless. If we were to impeach Biden for REAL crimes, what good would it be if a future Democrat controlled Congress could just expunge it from the record?
“Which serves what purpose?”
Frankly, I would like to see that done for historical purposes.
Because the Democrats impeached for historical purposes. They were just itching to impeach for SOMETHING. Only Democrat presidents had been impeached (Nixon resigned) and that stuck in their craw!
And so they impeached Trump TWICE! So Trump is now the only Republican president to be impeached and the ONLY president to be impeached TWICE. That’s their historical talking point.
So yes, I’d like to see them both fully expunged, because they were both totally political (as was Johnson’s and Clinton’s and Nixon’s would have been). But not to the point where they were looking for something to impeach for even before the president was sworn in.
“Do something actually useful - not senseless gestures.”
I’ll bet that’s not a senseless gesture from Prez Trump’s point of view.
Agree, Release all of the jan 6 DC gulag prisioners and then absolve them of any wrong doing. This will shock the political class.
“Do something actually useful - not senseless gestures.”
Have you not been following Congress this week?
How is that any more useless than voting for impeachment?
You vote for impeachment what does that actually accomplishment? You get to give yourself a big conservative virtue signaling hug! You’re not going to get 67 votes in the Senate for conviction and removal! Talk about a senseless gesture!
Expunging the previous votes for impeachment makes perfect sense. If the Rats ever get the House back, they can do it for Slick if they want.
Definitely release all the footage and if any of the charges originated from the House drop all of them. Explore whether the previous House action of setting up the J6 committee was done improperly hence illegal. (Probably isn’t the House has almost dictatorial powers on Capitol Hill. Worth exploring though for the future!). If it can be established that it was illegal, removal sovereign immunity from all members who set on it and allow them to be sued both criminally and
civilly for civil rights violations.
What’s autism have to do with this?
> Waste of political capital for senseless victory.
Yep. IT’s maybe worth a few television interviews, but not worth a second of time for house floor voting.
I doubt he intends to do this, but it irritates the reporter and is a good way to rattle their cage and stir them up a bit.
No reason not to do both. Release the footage, show it to people, show how it exonerates Trump and supporters from the charges on which he was impeached, then expunge the impeachment. Then impeach the impeachers.
“Waste of political capital for senseless victory”
R’s in congress can accomplish nothing legislatively this session. Bare majority, D’s and RINO’s control the Senate, and the President vetoes any legislation that is not a leftist wet dream.
So why not keep themselves busy with building a narrative with investigations and undoing some of the evil things the previous congress did?
