Impeach
Impeach: The Case Against Donald Trump | Neal Katyal, Sam Koppelman
2 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
Why President Trump has left us with no choice but to remove him from office, as explained by celebrated Supreme Court lawyer and former Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal. No one is above the law. This belief is as American as freedom of speech and turkey on Thanksgivingheld sacred by Democrats and Republicans alike. But as celebrated Supreme Court lawyer and former Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal argues in Impeach, if President Trump is not held accountable for repeatedly asking foreign powers to interfere in the 2020 presidential election, this could very well mark the end of our democracy. To quote President George Washingtons Farewell Address: Foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. Impeachment should always be our last resort, explains Katyal, but our founders, our principles, and our Constitution leave us with no choice but to impeach President Trumpbefore its too late.

Anyone else mourning the reading time these impeachment proceeding are stealing from you? It‘s like a train wreck and I can‘t look away.

RamsFan1963 The only way I've found through this is to ignore it, what happens happens, we have little control over it. The Powers That Be have already decided the outcome. I left Facebook, I've blocked the words "Trump" and "impeachment" from my news feeds, and I've stopped watching late night talk shows. 5y
Megabooks @RamsFan1963 👍🏻👍🏻 yup! Although I dumped fb in 2015. 5y
ljuliel No FB here. I‘d rather read than watch the train wreck. Me watching it won‘t change the outcome. 5y

Sace Ain't nothin' gonna happen. I've ignored it all and just continue to read. (Dumped FB in 2016) 5y
Brooke_H Nope. Reading wins. 5y
MatchlessMarie @RamsFan1963 @Megabooks @ljuliel @Sace @Brooke_H Whoops Hit send too soon. Whether we have control or not it‘s history in the making. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Today is probably the most I‘ve been invested in the impeachment conversation. I‘ve been more occupied with following the 2020 campaign and DACA news. I can‘t just totally look away I just wish I could hit pause on all of this until the New Year 🙃 📚 ⏱ 5y
MatchlessMarie But yay he‘s impeached so at least we have that for now 🎉 5y
RamsFan1963 @MatchlessMarie I just worry that the impeachment is going to backfire against the Dems in 2020. The Senate has pretty much said, through McConnell and Graham, that they are going to find him not guilty. I worry that people will see this as just revenge for the Russian probe failure, instead of the constitutional crisis that it represents. 5y
Sace @RamsFan1963 @MatchlessMarie I agree it's history in the making, but I'm really afraid it's that kind of history where later generations look back and say "how did the people not see (insert disaster) coming?" I'm generally a pessimist. The news and hypocrisy do not help my mental health. I get very very angry. I feel like we are on dangerous ground and waaay too many people are acting like there's nothing wrong ? 5y
Sace @MatchlessMarie I don't even want to think about DACA. I've taught dreamers and it all seems so unfair to me. 5y
MatchlessMarie @Sace My husband is a dreamer so it‘s hard not to obsess over worst case scenarios. 😱 I definitely have to force myself to take current events in small doses for my mental health👌 5y
Sace @MatchlessMarie oh my heart goes out to you and your husband! 5y
