I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

Just to remind everyone:
We want to see the Epstein files. The Congress passed a law to that effect.

Not if we do our jobs, it won’t. We need to make sure people are aware of the change, and we need to urge everyone to vote as early a possible in their states.
Barring that, we’re going to have to be willing to stand in line to vote on Election Day - we have a nation to save.

Odd, how MAGA couldn't draw enough attention to imaginary children being molested in #Pizzagate, but when it comes to *real* children being molested in #Epsteingate, they desperately want our attention to be elsewhere.

The Justice Department is compiling the largest set of national voter roll data it has ever collected. They claim their goal is to prove that “troves of undocumented immigrants have voted illegally.” That’s not the real objective.

Congress defies its own law, fails to install plaque honoring Jan. 6 police officers
Several House Democrats are wondering why a plaque to honor police officers who saved the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, wasn't installed by the deadline required by law.
