Pence Won't Invoke The 25th Amendment!

Pence will not commit to removing Trump.


BLACK LIVES MATTER

PROTECT BLACK WOMEN! 

WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE!

YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!

GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!

With the Blogger interface, it is getting harder to make blog posts. I am not kidding.

The way they rolled this interface out maybe the death knell for the once beloved social media platform.

I am not going to lie, this is frustrating and I am going to make my postings shorter and quicker now.

We are covering the chaos at the U.S. Capitol where Trump supporters have breached the steps of the federal building. We got word that many of these rioters have stolen property from the offices of lawmakers. Six people were killed. 

Vice President Mike Pence under pressure yet again. He felt the sting of his boss's supporters. 

Last Weenesday's events opened a wound. It exposed the a lapse in the safety of our elected leaders. It showed how the police stand down when it comes to white people committing acts of unrest. Last summer, peaceful protesters associated with Black Lives Matter were met with tear gas and violent encounters for the president's infamous photo-op. White people riot too. But the far-right wants you to fear the unrest in the wake of a dirty cop killing an unarmed person of color. The far-right wants you to fear Antifa. The riots in Portland are covered by a far-right agitator named Andy Ngo and allegedly pays far right operatives to cause havoc in a way to setup Antifa. 

You were never safe in Donald J. Trump's America.

Trust me, the Alabama Crimson Tide win over the Ohio State Buckeyes led to riots in Tuscaloosa. No one seems to be obsessed with rioting after sport victories and losses.

Democrats and one Republican in the House passed a resolution to demand Pence invoke the 25th Amendment to strip the president of his power. The Amendment states that if a president is incapable of performing the responsibility, the vice president and the cabinet could discuss actions to temporarily or permanently remove the commander-in-chief from his duties.

Pence confirms that he won't remove Trump. 

He did confirm he will attend President Joe Biden's inauguration. 

Now the House will proceed with the impeachment of President Donald J. Trump.

The Article of Impeachment will be instigating an insurrection.

Democrats in the House of Representatives have introduced a single article of impeachment against President Trump, charging him with "incitement of insurrection" over Wednesday's violence at the U.S. Capitol.

Trump's final trips includes a visit to the infamous border wall Mexico never paid for.

"Donald John Trump engaged in high Crimes and Misdemeanors by inciting violence against the Government of the United States," the resolution argues, citing his false claims of election fraud in the months leading up to the riot — which he repeated on Jan. 6 — and a phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger where Trump urged him to "find" votes to overturn the results there.

Resolved, the Donald John Trump, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors and that the following article of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:

Article of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors.

ARTICLE 1: INCITEMENT OF INSURRECTION

The Constitution provides that the House of Representatives "shall have the sole Power of Impeachment" and that the President "shall be removed from Office on Impeachment, for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors." Further, section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution prohibits any person who has "engaged in insurrection or rebellion against" the United States from "hold[ing] and office ... under the United States.' In his conduct while President of the United States — and in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, provide, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed — Donald John Trump engaged in high Crimes and Misdemeanors by inciting violence against the Government of the United States, in that:

On January 6, 2021, pursuant to the 12th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the Vice President of the United States, the House of Representatives, and the Senate met at the United States Capitol for a Joint Session of Congress to count the votes of the Electoral College. In the months preceding the Joint Session, President Trump repeatedly issued false statements asserting that the Presidential election results were the product of widespread fraud and should not be accepted by the American people or certified by State or Federal officials. Shortly before the Joint Session commenced, President Trump, addressed a crowd at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C. There, he reiterated false claims that "we won this election, and we won it by a landslide." He also willfully made statements that, in context, encouraged — and foreseeably resulted in — lawless action at the Capitol, such as: "if you don't fight like hell you're not going to have a country anymore." Thus incited by President Trump, members of the crowd he had addressed, in an attempt to, among other objectives, interfere with the Joint Session's solemn constitutional duty to certify the results of the 2020 Presidential election, unlawfully breached and vandalized the Capitol, injured and killed law enforcement personnel, menaced Members of Congress, the Vice President, and Congressional personnel, and engaged in other violent, deadly, destructive and seditious acts.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) supports impeaching Trump.

President Trump's conduct on January 6, 2021, followed his prior efforts to subvert and obstruct the certification of the results of the 2020 Presidential election. Those prior efforts included a phone call on January 2, 2021, during which President Trump urged the secretary of state of Georgia, Brad Raffensperger, to "find" enough votes to overturn the Georgia Presidential election results and threatened Secretary Raffensperger if he failed to do so.

In all this, President Trump gravely endangered the security of the United States and its institutions of Government. He threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, and imperiled a coequal branch of Government. He thereby betrayed his trust as President, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.

Wherefore, Donald John Trump, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security, democracy, and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with self-governance and the rule of law. Donald John Trump thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) stated he supported the resolution and will join the Democrats in impeachment of the president. 

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is supporting the impeachment of Donald J. Trump.

What is surprising is the top Republican, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY). She along with Rep. Fred Upton (R-MI) and Rep. John Katko (R-NY) will vote to impeach the president. There could be 20 Republicans in favor of impeaching a Republican president.

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will have no choice but to hold a trial. They will fast track the charge and the preisdent's legal team will have an opportunity to defend his actions. 

If found guilty, Trump will be removed from office and will be barred from running for federal office again.

Trump will the first one term president to be impeached twice.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) had supported the removal of Trump in 2020. He is likely to support it again. There could be Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE), Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) and Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) on board with removal. Outgoing senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler have not signalled their on board with removal. 

Because of this insurrection, the president has now gotten his supporters in a lot of trouble. They could face 12 to 20 years in federal time out. 

On top of that, they could be exposed to the coronavirus.

They will have to pay for the damages which could total into the millions.

They will lose their jobs. 

They will have their reputations ruined. 

They will be banned on social media. 

They will be placed on a No Fly List. 

They could face banned entry into Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, the European Union, Bermuda, Jamaica, Cayman Islands, Argentina, Egypt and the Bahamas.

The could face murder charges for the death of U.S. Capitol cops Brian Sicknick and Howard Liebengood as well as those the four other mobsters who died. 

President Donald J. Trump is innocent until proven guilty in the impeachment trial. 

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
