The Question Isn’t Whether Democrats Will Impeach Trump. The Question Is Why Won’t Republicans?
Since Trump came down that infamous escalator, Republicans have missed every off ramp on the highway to fascism. They will protect Trump to hold on to power no matter the cost to Americans.

This was reported as being the emergency call & video by the wife of the man who was shot in Minnesota tonight & based on this call, it appears that DHS is lying yet again.
I have trouble hearing everything they're saying but did a little translation so you can understand what's being said.

Gallego: "What we're seeing in MN isn't immigration enforcement. It is suppression. It is suppression of the people of MN. It is using ICE & CBP and all these other people to basically scare the people of MN. There's gonna have to be a lot of things that should we get power we're gonna have to fix"

Yes. A stated goal is elimination of the IRS. More importantly as the GOP continues to cut the IRS budget & deny tech & tools it prevents the IRS to audit or prosecute the wealthy & corporations who are not paying their share. They can only focus on low & middle income
