It’s with a heavy heart I am calling for the sake of our Democracy that the 25th Amendment be invoked. My statement:

From colleague John Roberts: A well-placed source tells me there is talk swirling among Republicans in Congress of a possible 2nd impeachment proceeding - and conviction against Trump - to insure he can’t run for re-election.

I believe the Republican members of Congress who have incited this domestic terror attack through their attempts to overturn the election must face consequences. They have broken their sacred Oath of Office. I will be introducing a resolution calling for their expulsion.

They really are the most bitter bunch of clowns. They just can't wait two weeks?
Depends on what the intention is.
Ask yourself what a regime insistent that it will find a way to punish those who defy it most resembles.
This is about sending a message to any other outsider who is even thinking about running for president. The swamp owns our government, and any attempt to reclaim it for the people will be met with scorched earth and personal ruin.
Oh yeah, I'm with you and the other reply, in that they will be going after Trump. I'm just a bit surprised to see it via an impeachment or 25th amendment. Would the most scorched earth outcome to that be that Trump is removed from office a few days early?
I'm more expecting a rigged criminal trial to be that scare tactic and propaganda message.
Worse than useless, in fact.
Oh absolutely. They would love if one of them got shot, they're just too much of pussies themselves to ever be that martyr. Being able to refocus the entirety of all these riots and stuff on a right winger shooting a member of the government and suddenly they have carte blanche to crack down on their ideological opponents.
This is exactly what they want. Then they can justify punitive action against MAGA.
Just from how they've been acting over the short and (for the people who were supposedly being insurrected and rioted against, anyway) bloodless Capitol occupation, and to say nothing of the last five months or five years, I don't think they 'need' anything to justify murderous totalitarian crackdowns against MAGA. Breathing while wearing a red cap is already sufficient provocation.
