The only valid response to Trump’s refusal to uphold the Constitution is impeachment…again.
The Senate must convict and remove him from office.

Presidents have one job.
“Preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States. “
This post is Donald Trump fully and publicly admitted he is incapable of it.
Congress must enforce the 14th amendment and remove him.

What kind of retaliation do Republicans need to grasp that it is not too late to speak out against the party of thugs they empowered--until they can't speak at all?

Some of us always meant it, but yeah, I was just commiserating with an old Reason colleague about what a disappointing eye-opener the Trump era has been. If we’re not all-hands for this, if we can’t see an authoritarian emergency this obvious, who are we even kidding?
The failure of libertarians to pick the right side in this has exposed their whole thought system. A principled libertarian attack on limiting government overreach would be welcome at this time. Put no such thing exists. Libertarian just means selfish.

NIH scientists have a cancer breakthrough. Layoffs are delaying it.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.
