We knew that Republicans were planning on invalidating the election in September, if you're keeping track at home.
We also knew in January, when he was impeached for an early attempt.
That was his first impeachment.
Anyway he's going to be the Republican nominee in 2024.
My position on the 2022 elections remains that the Republican Party is an organization dedicated to the overthrow of the United States and as such none of its members are eligible to hold or seek elected or appointed office, and every piece of news that comes out confirms it.

Where I Live, Nobody Cares About Anybody But Themselves
I’m from West MI and I can attest that the proud lack of regard for human life is quite normal here. 800,000 have died in the US—1 in 100 elderly. Schools and hospitals here are near the breaking point. He says caring makes you out of touch.
The Atlantic should be ashamed.
He should be ashamed, too, but he won’t be. He fully expects to not only be permitted to go on sharing his community’s selfish degeneracy, but to be preferentially accommodated. He thinks caring is for urban snobs.
In the 1950s and 60s, municipalities started to integrate their public swimming pools, in part due to legal mandates, in part because of the fact that segregation is cruel and unjust, and people have always known that, no matter what people say now about “a different time.”
So, municipalities—whether voluntarily or not—made public spaces available to everybody. A simple thing. A good thing. The right thing.
What happened was this: white people violently rioted.
The fascist, white supremacist political party Republican that works nearby is trying to end abortion rights, marriage equality, the struggle against institutionalized racism and poverty, and any hope of an equal, pluralistic modern society.
You can laugh at these pathetic men, and probably you should, but you should also realize that the most powerful political party in our country, seemingly able to control public policy in or out of power, with 35%-40% support, acts primarily to support their point of view.
Here's what I want people to understand about the marching Nazis:
They believe society is the preferential property of white people above all others. They are supremacists.
Our political and social systems are oriented to accommodate their point of view.
white conservatives think that what the 2nd amendment guarantees is not just the right for white people to bear arms, but the inviolable right for white people to be *presumed safe* while bearing arms, by both civilians and authorities, both before and after any killings
The suspect is a male, age 21 years, armed with several rifles and at least one handgun. Seven are dead, three others injured; authorities seek the gunman to find out if he is white, and, if so, what the dead did to deserve it, or perhaps how bad of a day he was having.
And yet so many 2nd amendment people are currently trying to overthrow the constitution, and shooting and threatening to shoot Black Lives Matter and other protesters who demand we followed it for the first time in the nation's history, it's weird.
