He indicted Trump twice and had two trials scheduled well before the election. You can actually thank SCOTUS for cancelling them.

What is worrying me is that there doesn't seem to be any mechanism at all to hold the current administration accountable. Where are the consequences for murder, invasion, and blatant disrespect of law (Epstein files)? How is enforcement possible?

We failed to hold the right-wing oligarchs accountable for the coup on January 6th, Russian interference, the subprime housing crisis, the WMD lie, Iran Contra, Watergate, and the confederacy. Elect people who will.
FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

Yesterday, Jan. 5, was the medieval Feast of St. Edward the Confessor. I know you all celebrated accordingly.

But did you celebrate with eels, like Henry III?

The king was a big ol' St. Ed's fanboy, & each year he threw a huge party with lots of eels. 10,000 of them in 1251!

The United States Constitution and Federal code is not enforceable on foreign soil, and US law enforcement functions do not extend to fucking Venezuela this woman is the attorney general and I feel like I’m taking crazy pills
Pam Bondi: "This was well within the president's Article 2 powers. It was a law enforcement function to arrest indicted individuals in Venezuela."

This is a strategy trial lawyers use all the time to put an opponent in a weaker position even if you lose some. Flooding the zone goes both ways, the Hill is packed with lawyers, and there is no reason to not flood the zone with articles of impeachment.

The Overton window won’t move itself.
The purpose of pushing impeachment articles through the House, via a fucking discharge petition if necessary, is to make Trump have to spend resources defending himself in the Senate.

And if new impeachment articles come through every two weeks, you force the motherfucker on defense.
IMO the argument is that you can make things into big enough deals that it matters. Khanna found Massey and found survivors and made the Epstein Files the gigantic story it should be. Only then did establishment Dems come along. You can, in fact, make things into big hairy deals if you do it right.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

Actual exchange from court today:

Me: I can't do January 20 for the hearing, your honor, because I'm having surgery, but I can do [dates in February]

Judge: Ordinarily I'd accommodate medical issues, but not for people like you. Attend from the hospital if you have to.

BREAKING: Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize instead of demanding it be given to him.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today.”

War requires Congress.

Maduro was a brutal dictator. But Trump had no legal authority to carry out regime change without Congress, to kidnap their leader or to plot the theft of Venezuela's oil. This is lawless greed that breeds criminals and dictators. The US has no king. Impeach. Convict. Remove.
