IMPEACHMENT

Trump sidesteps impeachment trap in sanctions law and prepares challenge to Supreme Court

Yesterday I wrote an article for The Duran in which I expressed the view that the Presidential Statement published in connection with US President Trump’s signing of the new sanctions law passed against his wishes by the US Congress clearly pointed to an intention to bring a future challenge against the sanctions law to the US Supreme Court.

Hard To Believe, But Watergate Teaches Us That There's No Reason To Give Up Hope For An Impeachment

Ultimately, impeachment is a political act. If there really is an anti-Trump/anti-Ryan tsunami in 2018, the Democrats will win back the House and probably impeach Trump-- even if it means forcing Pelosi and Hoyer, who oppose any such thing, to step down as leaders. Impeachment is like an indictment; there still has to be a trial in the Senate. And 66 votes to convict.

As controversies and Russian investigations keep growing and developing, an increasing number of U.S. citizens support impeaching President Donald Trump, recent polls show.
Forty-three percent of American voters now want Congress to begin proceedings to impeach Trump after the president’s return from his first trip abroad since he took office, according to a new Politico/Morning Consult poll.

Hillary Clinton looks stupid during speech, forgetting Bill Clinton was impeached (Video)

Hillary Clinton decided to forgo focusing on the graduating students and their future, instead opting to slam president Donald Trump during Wellesley College graduation commencement speech.
Hillary Clinton may want to re-enroll in her alma mater Wellesley College, given the fact that Clinton seems to have forgotten that Nixon was never actually impeached for obstruction of justice, and in fact the last US President to be impeached was former US President Bill Clinton, though he was not removed from office by the then US Senate.

Brazil sinks deeper into crisis as its unelected President faces corruption charges

Back on 29th August 2016 I wrote an article for The Duran in which I said that the pending impeachment of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff was a disaster for Brazil, removing from office a President who for all her mistakes had been democratically elected and was not corrupt, and replacing her with Michel Temer, an appointed President who would inevitably be compromised by the grossly partisan method of his appointment through a flawed impeachment process orchestrated by a corrupt and self-seeking elite.

U.S. Rep. Al Green, D-Houston, Saturday revealed several racist and threatening voicemails — some saying the black congressman should be lynched — in reaction to Green’s recent call to impeach President Donald Trump.
Green played two of the messages at a Saturday town hall in Houston, per a video on his Facebook page. In each voicemail, the caller referred to him as the n-word and called for his hanging.

The Palace Is in Turmoil but the Country Is Not

It appears that this administration will be mired in palace intrigue for a very long time, so that neither nirvana nor apocalypse will happen anytime soon. It's fine because the president is not what keeps the country together, if it is or ever was “together” in the way the civics texts say it should be. Not even the government generally is the reason our lives work well. For the most part, society works around government, not because of it.
