They should impeach him right now tbh.
Here’s why.

Because the remediation for presidential crime and abuse of power is impeachment.

You don’t do it (or not do it) because it’s politically expedient.

You do it because it’s required.

If you don’t, then crime and abuse of power is something presidents can do.
The way the House could have dissented from the Senate is by impeaching him again.

He should have faced hundreds of impeachments.

He should face another.
It’s really a bad idea for any branch of government frame their decision whether or not to perform constitutional responsibilities based on if it’s useful or practical.

The Senate runs that way. The presidency does. Increasingly the judiciary does.

The House shouldn’t.
People really don’t understand the energy we’ve got to bring to this fight.

They're talking about a military coup right now and if it doesn't happen we're going to be told the best way to heal is pretending it never happened.

This is how abuse works.
3,000 people are dying a day and after nearly a year of this Congress is releasing the barest fraction of the economic relief needed to keep people safe and only in exchange for the promise that we can't sue those who endangered the dead.

This is how abuse works.
We have a president who spent 4 yrs lying every time he opened his mouth, obvious lies everyone knew were lies, which his followers believed mostly because the sight of them believing lies caused the rest of us distress, and they loved our distress.

This is how abuse works.

If you want to hear something said, brave fella, you go ahead and say it.
"I need unfettered access to semi-automatic tactical rifle with a full length 12 o'clock rail for accessories, an adjustable gas block with Magpul MBUS flip-up sights and recoil-taming flash hiding compensator," says modern world-resister, Resist The Modern World.

Always remember that as bodies piled up, these Republicans held this line all year long and made the deaths happen.

There need to be trials.
There needs to be a reckoning for this.

Whenever someone proposes a means-testing solution, it's an indication they've internalized the lie, foundational to the United States, that some people deserve life and others don't.

It's an expensive lie.
It seems to me that there's a great fear in this country that a single dollar might go to someone who might not deserve it; or that a single given dollar might be spent on something we deem unworthy.

We'll spend five dollars to prevent the waste of that one dollar.
Our goal should be meeting the basic human needs of all people. Anytime we frame the task around questions of who deserves it, we accept the bad framework of those who don't want to help anyone but themselves.

Draw a clear and simple line—a bold one. Help everybody.

When medicine is operated for profit, human sickness inevitably becomes a product, and human health inevitably becomes the competition against it.

#Medicare4All
Every once in a while I stop and consider how curing cancer would be absolutely devastating to our current healthcare system, unless the cure could be made prohibitively expensive.
To be clear, it would not be devastating to healthcare workers, but to the system. This injustice, like other injustices, is systemic.
