Impeach him now along with JD Vance, Noem, Miller, RFK Jr, Hegseth, etc. Then have an election for new president, vice president, & congress. We need a do-over before we lose our country all together and look like Russia or North Korea run by crazy dictators.
Trump will attempt to corrupt the midterm elections anyway possible, to avoid the inevitable articles of impeachment waiting for him, should the GOP lose. Which they would in a free and fair election.

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

The 2026 National Defense Strategy “appears to have been drafted not by serious people but by Pentagon officials eager to curry favor with an imperious president and terrified of getting their talking points wrong,” Eliot Cohen argues.
Whatever This Is, It Is Not Strategy
Defending the nation will take more than sycophancy, slurs, and slop.

Warren: "I know there are Republicans right now who are seeing what we're seeing in MN, and they know it's wrong. It's time to speak out. Silence is complicity. Grow a spine, show some backbone. Being 'disturbed' doesn't change anything and the ICE agents who are waving around loaded guns know it."

I think they should boycott as their players and fans may be harassed and detained by the rogue DHS system in the United States. Maybe just move it across the border into Canada.
From @theathleticfc.bsky.social: The only ones who could organize and enforce a boycott of the 2026 World Cup would be high-ranking politicians, namely heads of state. The only real precedent is the U.S.-led boycott of the 1980 Olympics in Moscow.
Why a World Cup boycott is unlikely, and what it would take to organize one
Calls for a boycott of the U.S.-cohosted event are growing, but there's ample reason why anything materializing is a long shot
