If he’s not for impeachment then why should Dems vote for him?
“I think that there is more than enough to impeach Donald Trump,” Crockett said. “Ultimately, do I think we should go through the formal process? Absolutely.”
Talarico stopped short of suggesting whether he would support impeachment proceedings.

Democrats Crockett, Talarico align on much in Texas Senate debate. Trump impeachment is different
Democrats Jasmine Crockett and James Talarici differed more on style than substance in their first debate for U.S. Senate in heavily Republican Texas.

One of the funny things about “Texas” for someone not from here is how the mythos of what Texans are/respect is a scam because they love to vote for cowards like Cruz
Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) was spotted earlier today, January 20, 2026, on a plane heading to Laguna Beach as the state of Texas braces for a rare ice threat and arctic cold front.

When people talk about reasons to leave X, the fact that the owner is a mass murderer doesn't get mentioned enough. The Grok porn stuff is foul. The naked white nationalism is foul. This is worse.
Too few people are talking about the blood on Elon Musk's hands.
When DOGE slashed foreign aid, it wasn't just numbers on a screen. It was insulin, food, and antibiotics being ripped away from the world's poorest children.
Musk is responsible for the death of thousands

Q: You said that Maduro is responsible for drug trafficking. You recently pardoned the former president of Honduras who was convicted of drug trafficking. How are these situations different?
TRUMP: This was a man who was persecuted very unfairly by Biden. Obviously the people liked what I did

Something I don't think folks have fully clocked is the degree to which just about everyone under the age of 45 in any natsecs adjacent space to the left of groypers is flatly saying "this is illegal as shit, that's all there is to it"
Yep there’s no legal justification here. Either we have laws or we don’t.
They didn’t even bother to ask for an AUMF, impeachment

Sources 🚨 Vancouver Whitecaps have traded Jayden Nelson to Austin FC. GAM and a pick coming back per sources.
Nelson wanted more playing time to have a chance to make the #CanMNT ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
