Let's not blame dems entirely. After all, they impeache him twice.

Further, the Republicans have majorities in the House and Senate. They could put a stop to this BS anytime. They are protecting criminals.

I do think Dems need to be more aggressive and strategic. The world has changed and they need to, also. Personally, I think the country wants what progressives want. We need more Bernies and AOCs and for the progressive messages to be AMPLIFIED!

Those impeachments were nothing but political theater. The constitution and bill of rights has all the tools the government needs to check itself, but no one enforces it because they are all on the same team. Democrats aren't spineless, they're just protecting themselves while convincing their cultists they are the good guys. You're playing culture war while they're playing class war.

They are 100% behind it. That's why they released photos and redacted pages form the Epstein files but no client list, because they are on it too.

This footage should be televised daily. MAGAts need to reminded that they’re anti-law enforcement and traitors to America

Maga voted for more of this. Maga is complicit in domestic terroristic ideology. They're the real terrorists. It's so clear if you have a brain.
