Added by edit: I just realized the following article is behind a paywall. My apologies.
From the Nation:
Senators Just Sold Out Democracy I'm not the only one who believes that the Republicans aren't simply try to gain political advantages but actually attempting to institute permanent one-party rule. Elie Mystal has a short opinion piece pointing out their game plan.
Their solution to the demographic changes that will soon see us become a majority-minority country is to forge a new theory of government, in which minority white rule can withstand the popular will. [ Following the provided link takes you to a page that only provides the first couple paragraphs before asking you for money. To read the article instead go to Pardon Our Interruption, scroll down a little, find the link titled "Republican Senators Just Sold Out Democracy", and click on that. This will take you back to the same page, but this time it says that you're using your first of three free articles. ] Edited by Chiroptera, : No reason given.

On the contrary, there were laws broken. And, in addition, you can be impeached without a law being broken.
The laws that were broken were18 U.S. Code 872: Extortion by officers or employees of the United States. 2 U.S. Code 192, Refusal of witness to testify or produce papers, 18 U.S. Code 610, which covers that crime rather clearly under the title: Coercion of political activity. r 18 U.S. Code 607, Place of solicitation, and 52 U.S. Code 30121, Contributions and donations by foreign nationals.

I've heard it is being considered as an event in the 2024 Olympics.

Anything that can make me laugh these days is very welcome since there's so little I can be happy about. On Sundays at 4 PST I get to hear talk show host Chris Plante who I only recently discovered, and he can make me laugh out loud at his remarks about the Left. Maybe only half a dozen times during his show, but his generally antic monologues are amusing in themselves. Nobody here will appreciate him I suppose but I decided to post a recent program of his anyway because of his topic.
Toward the end he reads an article by a self-described Democrat who decided to attend the Trump rally in New Hampshire and found that they aren't stupid crazy Nazi deplorables but ordinary Americans having a good time and celebrating America. It's not particularly laugh stuff but the rally account is interesting IMHO. Start about 1:25:10 Goes to about 1:32: Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Trump broke none of those. But you might look at some Democrats, some in the House perhaps, for those who did.

Dang, he looks more like a comedian than someone who matters.

The picture on the front isn't from the rally. But yes he is a kind of comedian, he can be very funny at times. I only saw a few minutes of his talk, mostly watched the crowd gathering and some of the interviews before the program started. They filled the Coliseum, 15,000 capacity, with thousands outside who couldn't get in.

What rally? Where?
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness. If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Looks like the video changed to some other Fox story. The rally was last night in Arizona. Since they don't get much coverage if any in the "real" news I thought I'd post it. He always fills stadiums and coliseums to overflowing by thousands and he has rallies very frequently. Pleasant cheerful crowds too. True Americana.
