Report: Senate Republicans Negotiating Terms of Unconstitutional Post-Departure Trump Impeachment Trial

Why are the Senate Republican negotiating anything? They can't hold an impeachment trail without GOP cooperation. He's out of office. It is unconstitutional to impeach a President once he out of office. All I can figure is the Republicans, like their Democrat counterparts, want to make certain Trump can't run for President again. Over seventy million people voted for Trump in 2020 election. I think that sounds like a good start on a third party.

I doubt the Senate will vote in favor. Maybe the problems can be fixed in conference. That really depends on how much you trust out elected officials not to screw us. Maybe the best thing to happen would be to kill this thing and start over again, but then we're back to how much can we trust our elected officials not to screw us.

Here's my suggestion for a fix. The law need have only one sentence. If your are a U. S. Citizen and can carry concealed legally in your home state, you can carry concealed legally in any State in the Union. How's that sound? Too simple? I don't expect perfect, just better.

The Bully Party

Team Clinton has succeeded in perpetuating one of the greatest evils I have seen in my lifetime. Her side has branded Trump supporters (40%+ of voters) as Nazis, sexists, homophobes, racists, and a few other fighting words. Their argument is built on confirmation bias and persuasion. But facts don’t matter because facts never matter in politics. What matters is that Clinton’s framing of Trump provides moral cover for any bullying behavior online or in person. - Scott Adams

As bad as it was during the Obama runs, it wasn't this bad. I'd thought of Trump as a bully. No evidence. He just struck me as the type. He'd be a piker compared to Hillary Clinton.

This is how House Speaker Ryan protects the Constitution

The House will vote on an anti-terrorism measure next week that would prevent terror suspects from purchasing guns, House Speaker Paul Ryan told GOP lawmakers Thursday.

In a conference call with the House Republican conference, Ryan, R-Wis., outlined a plan to vote on a legislative package that responds to the recent terrorist shootings, including limiting access to firearms by those on federal terror watch lists.

"The terrorism package will include measures to disrupt radicalization and recruitment, and a provision to prevent suspected terrorists from buying guns," a GOP aide said.

The measure comes after Ryan earlier this month ordered a House terrorism task force "to look at additional legislative options," following the Orlando terrorist shooting that killed 49 people and wounded 53 others.

...and the fix is in.

Still, “It will never get to an indictment,” Krongard said.

For one, he says, any criminal referral to the Justice Department from the FBI “will have to go through four loyal Democrat women” — Assistant Attorney General Leslie Caldwell, who heads the department’s criminal division; Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates; Attorney General Loretta Lynch; and top White House adviser Valerie Jarrett.

Even if they accept the referral, he says, the case quickly and quietly will be plea-bargained down to misdemeanors punishable by fines in a deal similar to the one Clinton’s lawyer, David Kendall, secured for Gen. David Petraeus. In other words, a big slap on the wrist.

The Democrats keep saying they don't want to take our guns away.

Maybe they should get their story straight before they open their mouths.
