Enough is enough. All Democratic Congress members

need to gather own the steps of Congress and immediately DEMAND the impeachment of trump. The immediate stop of all cuts to programs that have been approved and funded by Congress. The illegal deportation and confinement actions by HHS and ICE up to and including unidentified and masked "officers" be halted. What is happening across the country is immoral inhuman and in many cases illegal. Republicans in Congress have to stand up and defend their complicity to the country and the courts and be made to do so in public by name. No more lies and propaganda they are destroying the constitution and the country by the minute. I'm sorry I don't know how they will do this but something has to be done this is disgusting and I'm pissed.

Get mean, and take it to the GOP.

We need a foil or boogie man. I suggest we start with insurance companies of all sorts.

We need to rail against the debt. Trump is exploding it. The debt could be another foil for us.

We need to call for affordable homes, affordable healthcare, affordable, education, and affordable standard of living.

Trump and the GOP are doing nothing to help.

That's Genius!

Let's just check to see what it takes to achieve the "impeachment of Trump." I think it's in the Constitution somewhere. Just let me go take a look. This might take a little while, so, please give me a day or two to get the answer.

When Dems retake the house in 2026, they won’t need to helplessly demand impeachment, they can just go ahead and impeach him again for the third time.

In the meantime, actions that highlight Dems powerlessness in congress are inadvisable.

Instead, actions like the series of rallies that Bernie and AOC held, and red district town halls held by Tim Walz and others to fire people up and get them to use their own power to bring the heat to MAGA reps and senators seems a more useful path to take.

immigrants across the country is pure evil and unnecessary. Legal, illegal or otherwise are being rounded up like livestock by armed masked men. This should enrage every person in this country. These are not killers, rapists, child molesters and if they are prove it before they are shipped to concentration camps. The fact that Republicans are not themselves condemning these actions is a crime in itself. Not to mention the destruction of the economy and our allies that again are self inflicted wounds. One sorry but we can't wait for midterms to stop this. This administration is Hitler's Nazi plan on steroids and no it's not hyperbolic.

that some Democrat is not on a news program or on social media making the case for trumps and many of his administration impeachment or arrest. These are criminals who all have broken their oath of office. Do you think this can go on for another 2 years ?

It's scary when his goon squad is actively interfering in foreign elections. They all need to be brought to justice.
