Cancel Culture?

All this blather about Cancel Culture. Are you kidding me? Hawley and you Gym Jordan? What was that Jan 6 bullshit? Trying to cancel the free and fair presidential election and you're crying victim here of cancel culture?

First McConnell then Haley and now Thune

Republican leaders beginning attempts to phase out Loser 1 while trying to secure his base. It's the smart play but can they pull it off? Not if Loser 1 knows about it. His legal battles will diminish his sway eventually. How much is hard to say with his most loyal. I look for Haley's 'Trump Lite' platform to grow. All the good things about Loser 1 without all the bad.(I know. What good?) It should be a balancing act for FOX while Newsmax and OANN take their chances with Loser 1.

has the former vice president (Pence) had to go into hiding due to the death threats from the former President's (Trump) followers?

The DOJ needs to make an announcement

If Trump is cleared of impeachment in the Senate the DOJ will pursue criminals charges for inciting a riot and domestic terrorism. Now the lesser of two evils will be a guilty verdict in the Senate. Republicans will be doing him a favor by voting for impeachment. Pssst, they really would convict in the Senate if not for their Trump loving constituents.

This is an important time

For four years Trump has hidden his actions. Refused to turn over damning information because he could. From emolument violations to unconstitutional actions. From the looting of the Treasury to treason. Documents and testimonies will come forth. We need every piece of information proving his incompetence and criminality. Every single piece. That's where we come in. Do we want all the information or not because when we condemn anyone for waiting until he is out of power to come forth we cause those that still haven't come forth to think twice about sharing what they know.
We won. We won without all the damning information so who cares if it comes later as long as it all comes out. Please resist the temptation to lash out at the whistleblowers timing. It serves no purpose to condemn them. Welcome them. 74 million voters would still vote for him tomorrow. They need to see the truth. We need them to see it.
From every corner of government consider how many were fired and how many resigned. Most remained silent. He will be out of office but he won't be going away. It is the sheer volume of truth coming to light that will be the nail in the coffin of Trumpism and the media that supported him.

Senator John Fetterman

Has a nice ring to it.

Does Jocelyn Benson, the Secretary of State of Michigan know she's presidential material?

Charismatic, brilliant, unflinching in the face of adversity. Her subtle fearlessness comes from a deep realization she is on the side of right. I like her more and more every time I see her. She reminds me of a young Barack Obama. All the right stuff. Michigan, you've chose your leaders well.
