#353.) Trump’s refusal to concede, pushing false claims of voter fraud, and pretending he has any path through court cases or recounts to overturn the results violates his oath of office. The GOP backing this is 100% treason. nytimes.com/2020/11/09/us/…
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#354.) Barr opening a sham investigation into results in states Trump lost by incontestable margins is the most egregious abuse of power ever committed by an AG. Barr should have been impeached to prevent this exact scenario. cnn.com/2020/11/09/pol…
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#355.) The administrator for the GSA—who just happens to be the landlord of one of Trump’s DC hotels—is preventing Biden’s team from accessing vital resources. Undermining the transition of power is an assault on democracy.
#356.) Trump has kidnapped even more migrant children than was previously reported. There are now 666 kids whose parents “cannot be found.” This outrageous number represents the degree of evil this is. It’s also criminal.
#357.) Since his loss, Trump has been in hiding & won’t do anything as COVID explodes nationwide. This is deriliction of duty & warrants his removal from office so that President-elect @JoeBiden can start saving lives.
#358.) Trump finally emerged after losing to lie more about the election, continue to refuse to concede, take credit for a vaccine trial he had nothing to do with & threaten to withhold the vaccine from the people NY. ILLEGAL
#359.) Trump pressured 2 board officials in MI’s largest county not to certify election results. They agreed, then signed, and now are trying to take back their signatures (impossible). Illegal. Unconstitutional. Disgraceful. apnews.com/article/donald…
Trump’s Impeachachable Offenses:
#360.) He failed at the ballot box. He failed in court. He failed with the media. He failed w/ county boards. Now he’s inviting GOP lawmakers from states he lost by over 150K votes to the WH to bribe them. This will fail.
#361.) Trump solicited bribes from inmates of federal prisons by offering pardons in exchange for political favors (e.g. dirt on opponents). Felony bribery, felony extortion & unfathomably criminal abuse of the pardon power. apple.news/AvIRb6sFyRvCcF…
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#362.) Trump’s refusal to concede isn’t just endangering the lives of millions by obstructing Biden’s team; it’s driving his cult base to attack/threaten election officials across the country. Trump is a stochastic terrorist.
#363.) Trump is now CALLING THE GOVERNORS of Republican states he lost and asking them to overturn the election results. This is such an egregious act I don’t know that there is even a name for it. But it’s beyond impeachable washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#364.) Trump sent a slate of 11 fake electors to cast ballots for him in AZ. They were denied entry, as Arizona’s real electors were already present and cast their ballots for President-elect Biden, who actually won the state
#365.) Russia launched another massive cyberattack on us; gaining access to US gov’t servers and computer systems that could take us years to effectively remove them from. Trump says/does nothing. Treason/perjury of oath.
#366.) Trump held an Oval Office meeting with Flynn and discussed plans for staging a coup that included deploying the military, appointing a special counsel, having DHS seize ballot machines & other equally illegal proposals
#367.) Trump can’t hold Russia accountable for their cyberattack on us, blocked his administration from releasing a statement acknowledging they were responsible, & contradicted his own Secretary of State on twitter by saying it wasn’t them. TREASON
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#368.) Trump has told his officials at USTR to refuse to schedule meetings with Biden’s team. The speed of this transition is vital to our national security. Obstructing it violates Trump’s oath of office & endangers us all.
#369.) Trump has gone on a full fledged pardon-spree. Abusing the pardon power to exonerate your accomplices is illegal; and accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt. Every one of these felons will join Trump in prison.
#370.) Trump is inciting violence among his supporters by encouraging them to engage in insurrection in Washington, D.C. on Jan 6th, when electors meet to officially cast their ballots to make @JoeBiden the next POTUS. This is domestic terrorism.
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#371-375.) Trump’s phone call to GA’s Secretary of State constituted AT LEAST 5 more impeachable offenses. I’ll go through them all. HE MUST BE IMPEACHED AGAIN. His term ending in 16 days is irrelevant. #ImpeachTrumpAgain washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#371.) Trump pressured Raffensperger to “find him [a precise # of ] ballots” that don’t exist. Tampering with a U.S. election IS A FELONY; VIOLATES ELECTORAL LAW; IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. And is UNDENIABLY impeachable.
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#372.) Trump suggested Raffensperger destroy or fabricate evidence that would allow him to be the winner in GA (FELONY). In addition, he attempted to knowingly and willfully” deprive a state’s residents of a free and fair election. See: 52 USC 20511
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#373.) Trump threatened Raffensperger and implied there would be legal consequences for lack of compliance with HIS OWN illegal demands. He ACCUSED RAFFENSPERGER OF COMMITTING A CRIME by not being willing to be extorted. Surreal level of criminality
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#374.) Trump’s attempt to get Raffensperger to “find him votes” also violates Georgia state law under Ga. Code § 21-2-603: Conspiracy to commit election fraud. A case against Trump will likely be brought by Georgia state prosecutors for this.
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#375.) Trump ALSO said if Raffensperger didn’t comply, it would negatively impact the 2 runoff senate races in Georgia that are BEING HELD TOMORROW. Why just tamper with one election when you can tamper with three? ILLEGAL. nytimes.com/2021/01/03/us/…
Trump’s Impeachable Offenses:
#376.) Trump dispatched his army of terrorist supporters on the Capitol in a seditious attempt to stop the certification of @JoeBiden. It failed but left a woman dead. REMOVE. HIM. NOW. #ImpeachTrump #25thAmendmentIMMEDIATELY

I’ll explain this again just to get ahead of the MAGA outrage at my “lack of civility/tolerance for people with different political beliefs.” If you voted for Trump, you and I do not have “different political beliefs.” We are at opposite ends of the cosmos in terms of character.
If you voted for Trump, you voted for the nullification of my marriage by your corrupt court of illegitimate religious extremists who we all know isn’t done taking a sledgehammer to our fundamental freedoms and most cherished victories for equality and civil rights.
If you voted for Trump, you voted for mass deportations, which will destroy the nation; crater the economy; tear apart MILLIONS of families. I cannot be friends with someone who supports something so needless, racist, inhumane, unconstitutional, and un-American.
Here’s a Substack piece I wrote last September about how much the Republican Party DESPISES our nation’s military. And no one in the party has more contempt for the members of our armed forces than Donald Trump himself
They don’t refuse to admit it because they believe it’s true. They do it because fascists always try to create a world where there is no truth
So that people say “Well, Democrats and pundits say the election wasn’t stolen. But Republicans say that it was. I guess we can never truly know for sure one way or the other.”
Except THAT’S BULLSHIT. The 2020 election was NOT STOLEN. Trump LOST. And TRUTH MATTERS in a DEMOCRACY
One of the things that Jack Smith revealed in his most recent 165-page filing exposing the lengths that Trump went to to cling to power after losing in 2020 was that Trump said to family members:
“It doesn’t matter if you win or lose an election. What matters is that you fight.”
Since @BillOReilly took it upon himself to claim that @KamalaHarris “may be the most unprepared presidential candidate in history,” let’s take a look at her qualifications. [Spoiler alert: She is among the *most* prepared/qualified candidates in modern U.S. history] (THREAD)
Before her selection as Biden’s vice presidential candidate, Harris was the San Francisco District Attorney, the CA Attorney General, and a U.S. senator. All of these were elected positions to which she made history as the being the first female/mixed race person to hold them.
In the Senate, Harris was a member of the Judiciary, Intelligence and Homeland Security committees, all of which are highly prominent assignments. She served with honor and poise on each of these committees, where she was an articulate and powerful voice for equality and justice.
Vance and Trump have both repeatedly lied about Trump “salvaging/saving the Affordable Care Act.” Vance told this lie at least half a dozen times tonight. So let’s correct the record on Trump and Obamacare (the ACA) right now so there is no more confusion (Thread).
As president, Trump fought relentlessly to repeal the ACA using executive action, legislation and lawsuits. “Trump was not successful in undoing the ACA, but it was not for lack of trying,” said Larry Levitt, executive VP for health policy at KFF, a nonpartisan research group.
“Trump encouraged congressional efforts to repeal and replace the ACA, and then took administrative steps to try to weaken it when the legislative route failed,” he continued.
