Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Sunday called for Congress to, once again, impeach President Donald Trump. This time, she wants to take things a step further, assuming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) moves forward with scheduling impeachment hearings.
"I absolutely believe that impeachment should be scheduled for several reasons. One, of course, our main priority is to ensure the removal of Donald Trump as President of the United States," she explained to ABC News' George Stephanopoulos. "Every minute and every hour that he is in office represents a clear and present danger, not just to the United States Congress, but frankly, to the country."
Impeachment isn't the only thing on Ocasio-Cortez's wish list.
"In addition to removal, we're also talking about complete barring of the president – or rather of Donald Trump – from running for office ever again," she said. "And, in addition to that, the potential ability to prevent pardoning himself from those charges he was impeached for."
Should Pelosi move forward with Articles of Impeachment. Democrats are going to run into a problem: the clock. The House can pass the Articles but there could be a hangup in the Senate. The Senate isn't scheduled to conduct any official business until Jan. 19. There will be two pro-forma sessions – short sessions where very little business actually takes place – on Jan. 12 and 15. The only way Articles of Impeachment could be entertained on those days is if all 100 senators are in agreement. Unanimous consent is very, very unlikely.

These overstuffed power hungry empty suits. when biden is not seated and Trump is in for 4 more years... they all can get a taste of what they are dishing out... they are brave when they think they are protected...
but they have shown what they are capable of.. it won’t last.
and I am shocked at a republican in congres do not know what the dems are capable of
Well,one thing’s for sure...she has no need to steal from the tip jar anymore.There are many,many,*many* thousands of dollars (in addition to her $170,000 a year salary) coming her way in the coming months/years.And a few of them might even be legally obtained.
I feel more stupid every time I read her words.
Perhaps this is stating the obvious, but apparently AOC is the kind of person that needs things spelled out for her using small words. The election is over, President Trump will be leaving office in a few days...
Unless of course the left is worried that their obvious, massive voter fraud scheme will come completely apart. If they were afraid that the Biden/Harris usurpers were destined to get thrown out of office then they might have cause to be fearful of a return of President Trump. That would explain why they want to remove him.
Yesterday, someone posted a link to a video clip in which Nancy Pelosi explained the process that the Democrats use to smear their opponents. After the initial smear is made, the Democrats relay the smear to their media allies and then, afterwards, the Democratic politicians regurgitate it as being truthful since it was covered in the media.
Today, the media outlets are engaged in full out support for the Democratic smear campaign — all of the national Sunday programs booked Trump critics and Pelosi, herself, will be on 60 Minutes tonight.
Matt Gaetz said the reason they are going after Trump is that it’s the only issue that unites them.
But I think they are worried that their ability to cheat in 4 years will be diminished and Trump will be back.
See post #10 on why impeachment can’t happen.
LOL. Gallows humor but funny. Had she kept her mouth closed (like George Washington in all portraits) we would have never known.
Oh Right !
I forgetted that she are a koledge gradiate !
She got dip loma , in comuneconomics !
This imbecile needs to be beaten into unrecognizable pulp, along with her pals Pressley, Omar, and Tlaib. They are a clear and present danger to our safety with their inflammatory yet completely uninformed stupid remarks.
Yep. Not only did the likes of Horse Face approve but she had many pajama boy republicans help her out.
AOC is an idiot.
Where is Pelosi now?
Inquiring minds....
She's smart, her voters are the idiots, and she knows just what to say to fire them up, and get real rich off of them.
So, AOC has been plotting a carefully orchestrated bid for a much bigger deep state mouthpiece role.
AOC is an actress.
You don’t have to think, you just need a huge fan base.
...and the deep state will put you on heavy rotation.
AOC doesn’t care about anything, except herself.
What I have heard (and I know allhere have heard) from liberals or now leftists in conversation:
After an assertion of evidence or an interview of wrongdoing or corruption by Clintons,Obama,or others:
“If that were true I would have seen it reported all over the NYT,LA Times, Newsweek,Time, NBC, ABC, CNN....It wasn’t reported. So it is just another of your rightwing nutjob rumors from talk radio or your internet sites.”
Bye, bye.
I have taken note that many conservatives would love to go to the Biden Inauguration and disrupt the ceremony. However, I strongly disagree. No one, Democrat, Republican or otherwise should attend a Faux Inauguration of a man, criminal, corrupt politician, empty suit, Joe Biden who stole the 2021 POTUS election...period.
And...those that do attend will be treated to the shortest POTUS Inaugural in USA history. Biden gets tired if his speaking words last or go more then twenty minutes!!! And he needs wife, Jill to help him walk away from his podium.
In fact...IMHO...I believe the Biden Inauguration will be held in the Biden Basement Hideout Cave in the Biden home in Delaware. And...instead of trying to impeach POTUS Trump...Biden should be already be taking care of filling his cabinet slots and getting relief out to millions of suffering Americans in small businesses and needing stimulus checks of $2,000.00 each!!! Have you folks have seen the future coming, in the latest lousy unemployment numbers.
The Dining & Service industries dropped 450,000 jobs in December. Hello Joe Biden and your Democrat Party of the American Economy killers!! We need cabinet officials immediately, not waiting while Pelosi plays her hate games with Trump. Is Biden POTUS or, is he just the Lackey of Nancy Pelosi?
Bfl
And, pray tell, who is going to stop that from happening?
And that's about as likely as the Bears winning the Super Bowl.
