House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Friday her colleagues have decided to move forward with impeaching President Trump for a second time if he does not resign.

After an hours long meeting, the California Democrat said members of Congress hope Mr. Trump will resign but if not, they’ll move forward on their own.

“I have instructed the Rules Committee to be prepared to move forward with Congressman Jamie Raskin’s 25th Amendment legislation and a motion for impeachment. Accordingly, the House will preserve every option – including the 25th Amendment, a motion to impeach or a privileged resolution for impeachment,” she announced.

Under the 25th Amendment a president can be removed from office should the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet agree — or, alternatively, the vice president and another body that Congress designates for the purpose of determining a president’s fitness.

Indeed, they’re make it seem as though we have no other options, it’s looks like they’re purging and fast tracking a communist government.

If war isn’t what they want, then they should just relax and do a normal transition. Normal as can be as things are.

Do it bitch.


I’m sorry, gender words have been banned in the House of Representatives. Perhaps ‘asshole’?

She should just go ahead and suspend the constitution. You know she wants to do it. All of them do.

Sorry, Nancy. There’s just a little more complicated business to take care of.

I love Trump.
He kept his word.
I was skeptical when he campaigned because so many times ... EVERY TIME ... I would realize that the lying dog Republicans had lied to me. AGAIN!!
Trump was/is different!! He said the things I WAS ALREADY thinking. Upon election he kept his word.
A man of integrity. Not a man of the Establishment.
Trump gave his all, and it cost him a lot.
I have no intention of walking away from him.
Still looking for ways to support and help him. He did a lot to help me and further the cause of real Americans who really love America.
MAGA Forever. And Semper Trump!!

Does Silicon Valley really think they can control the entire Internet?

The Internet was designed to prevent exactly that!

They must be terrified of something....and it may not be obvious what it is...there are so many secrets...

If true, the incident at the airport may have shaken that POS up a bit.

If I were in his state, I would somehow try to make it clear to him that if they keep this up, it will result in the deaths of millions of Americans. Those in the blue cities will suffer the most.

She has absolutely zero grounds for impeachment. On Wednesday Trump voiced his 1st Amendment Rights by stating his opinion on how the election was stolen, and what his plan was to overturn the stolen election. He did not incite any violence whatsoever. There plenty of videos out there showing Patriots calling out Antifa thugs, who were all padded up and ready to case chaos. Have another drink Nan, you slurring drunk.

He has already gone to far in his addresses.

Of course, those were NOT HIS addresses.

A second impeachment with twelve days left is a joke—not revenge.

Who would care?

Something else is going on...

If they do this it will be like imploding the plutonium core in on itself. The incipient civil war will go thermonuclear after that.

Leftists are leftists because they’re immature and foolish. Giving them total power is like handing a bazooka to a toddler. Well, now they’re running around giggling while they fire that bazooka in every direction. Someone needs to smack them down and snatch it out of their hands before they destroy everything. That’s going to take historic courage, cunning, and determination.
