The House is set to vote today to impeach Donald J. Trump for abusing his power and obstructing congressional investigations, labeling the president a threat to national security and recommending his removal from office. We thank the brave whistleblower, who defended us all.
Donald Trump's election was illegitimate, accomplished on the back of a series of crimes, and with the help of a foreign adversary. He sought to cheat to win reelection. McConnell's sham acquittal may soon come in the Senate, because the GOP knows it must cheat to win.
But the American people are the ultimate jury. We will hold the Republicans to account for failing to stand up to this bigoted, criminal fraud of a President. The GOP is intellectually and demographically defeated. It will rely now on bullying and intimidation, and lawbreaking.
We will not be oppressed. We will reject the tyranny of the empty suits, the tyranny of a minority party with nothing to offer the 21st century and no ideas to solve the grand challenges we face. The tyranny of a rich white plutocracy that just wants to take, and take and take.
So no matter what happens in the Senate- I believe today is the day history turns- that we pivot towards victory. It may take decades- but the popular rejection of Donald Trump and his impeachment by the United States Congress is a necessary first step. Onward.
