https://rollcall.com/2023/06/21/revised-schiff-censure-advances-impeachment-votes-could-be-next/i have high blood pressure and have been dealing with some health crap, and didn't go to check it out until now. i did watch his amazing, historical comments on the House Floor yesterday, but it didn't tell me what their "why" was. so i googled this morning and the reason is he told the truth about their cult leader.
it's 2023 but feels much more like 1984. I'm so pissed I want to scream. So fucking mad I think I'm going to cry. where and how does this end.
This should be shared far and wide.

(28,811 posts)i think i need to make a change, disengage, but have found it's actually not possible to stop knowing what you know and observing what you see and hear. it's sickening what republicans have done to my country tis of thee, truly sickening. and they are the sickest fucks of all. it is as if the inmates are running the asylum.
i don't know why this felt like a last straw. it's SO ABSURD, i think that is why.
Schiff is right. History will find this a badge of honor and it will be known that during this time, republicans led the country into ruin.
unless they prevail.

(28,811 posts)i have a bush that is growing out of control and covering up my front window.
it's raining though and i'm a wuss.
however, i did just go and hack off my hair (don't worry, I keep my hair very short and it was way too long, even if i wasn't so pissed). The cutting was oddly satisfying.

(3,246 posts)They complain that there wasn't enough evidence to warrant a full investigation, and yet Dumb Dumb Durham concedes that a preliminary investigation would have been OK, just not a full investigation. At what point did Dumb Dumb think a full investigation would have been warranted- maybe at the point where the investigation was actually convicting criminals like Manafort and Stone?
Who knows with these idiots?
