CBS News reports that GOP Senators have been warned by Trump team: "Vote against the president, and your head will be on a pike." How is this acceptable?
Since Trump’s White House seems unaware, threatening a juror with physical violence is a felony offense.
Disturbed by the fact that Trump’s goons are threatening Senators to either support his corruption or face retribution?

Take action and speak up.

Text CONVICT to 21333 to contact your Senator and let them know that it’s time to put country over party.

No, the New York Times did not talk to six “swing voters” about impeachment. The article quotes a handful of devout GOP voters who the NYT has repeatedly interviewed multiple times. A thread....
The NYT article includes an interview with Donna, presented as a swing voters who doesn’t favor impeachment.

The problem? NYT interviewed the same woman last year. She voted for Trump and the Republicans again in the Midterm.

This isn’t a swing voter.
The NYT article also includes an interview with Trisha, who admits she’s been to 23 Trump campaign rallies. 23! She wrote a book about Trump! NYT has interviewed her at least twice in the past two years.

She’s a Trump fanatic, not a swing voter.

The most baffling conventional wisdom that exists in American politics is that Republicans must work to appease their Republican base, while Democrats must also find ways to appease the Republican base, for some reason. How about someone speaks for the actual majority?
Democrats don’t want a sexual predator on the Supreme Court. Democrats don’t want people to have access to weapons of war. Democrats don’t want health care costs to bankrupt a family. Guess what? Most Americans agree! Stop thinking policy must placate right-wing extremists.
Waiting for a Sunday news panel to ask: “How will Trump’s policies motivate irregular Obama voters?”

Donald Trump corrupted the 4th of July.
(1) Fireworks CEO meets with Trump in Oval Office to oppose tariffs. (2) CEO announces ‘donation’ to Trump’s 4th of July event. (3) *That same day* Trump announces delay to very same tariffs. abcnews.go.com/Politics/july-…
Hey @HouseDemocrats, here’s an idea:

Donald Trump is a criminal. Impeach him.

Passion, drama but little suspense as Democrats rest impeachment case
Most of the 100 senators, who sit as judge and jury in the trial, have already tipped their hand as to how they will vote
After nearly 24 hours, divided across three long days, the prosecution rested their case in the impeachment trial of Donald Trump. There was passion, drama and even a display of “histrionics”, but little suspense.
Mitch McConnell, the Senate majority leader, had revealed the ending weeks ago. Aquittal was inevitable.

The measure of success for the seven impeachment managers appointed by Nancy Pelosi to prosecute the House’s case against the president was therefore not

Stellar job, Schiff. You managed to piss off @SenSusanCollins 😏

Republicans livid after #DipSchiff cites supposed threat to GOP senators politi.co/36rctDc via @politico
Schiff read a quote from a #fakenews @CBSnews story: That a Trump ally said "GOP senators were warned ... 'vote against the president and your head will be on a pike.'"
Several Republican senator murmured "not true" as soon as Schiff said it. Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) shook her head and said "not true" several times. Schiff quickly tried to recover.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
