According to a new book by Politico’s R. Bade, Mitch McConnel was seriously considering voting to convict Trump in the impeachment trial. However, after watching the amount of support Trump still had from GOP senators, he changed his mind. What a coward! He told Liz Cheney:
"We just disagree on the tactics." Let’s just ignore him”
His vote will go down in history as one of the most consequential votes in recent history. Because of Mitch's cowardice, not only did Trump not fade away, he's just emboldened Trump & his total grip on the GOP. For shame!
Make no mistake-If MAGA Republicans take control of Congress, all aid to Ukraine will stop immediately.
Remember this when you go to the polls in November.
Here's Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz confirming that he'll use his power to stop all aid to Ukraine.
Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, alongside dozens of other MAGA Republicans, shares the same view. If the GOP takes control of congress, they'll have a very slim majority which means that these pro-Putin members will have the power to block anything they disagree with.
BREAKING: Liz Cheney SLAMS Trump for threatening violence if indicted, saying, "It is hard to see this as anything but a direct threat to our Constitution, to our republic, and a credible one at that. One can only wonder, is this where the Republican Party will go next?"
"The prosecution is inappropriate because MAGA will violently oppose it. All of us have an obligation to acknowledge what is happening. Those activities that I have just listed for you, those are the erosion of the rule of law and they are the undermining of our constitutional"
“Our constitutional system has been defended and handed down to us by every generation since 1789. It comes to us with a duty of inheritance. It doesn’t belong to us. It belongs to our children and our grandchildren. And we must not be the generation that allows it to unravel."
Look at the results from last night's Republican primaries in NH: #NHSEN- MAGA Republican won #NH02- MAGA Republican won #NH01- MAGA Republican won
All 3 of them are far-right election deniers.
For the sake of our democracy, this anti-democracy cult must be defeated in Nov.
Don't forget, the Republican establishment invested heavily against this candidate, but they won anyway. In fact, Trump didn't even endorse anyone in the senate race, but the MAGA candidate won anyway. This isn't just a fringe. This is what the Republican base has become.
Liz Cheney said: "The reality that we face today as Republicans...we have to choose, because Republicans cannot both be loyal to Trump and loyal to the Constitution."
At the end of the primaries season, what Republicans have chosen is clear. They must lose the election in Nov.
A group of conservatives and Republicans issue a report debunking each and every claim made by Donald Trump about the 2020 election. The report is signed by 3 retired federal judges, a former Solicitor General, former GOP Senators John Danforth and Gordon H. Smith, and many more.
In summary, they wrote: "There is absolutely no evidence of fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election on the magnitude necessary to shift the result in any state, let alone the nation as a whole. In fact, there was no fraud that changed the outcome in even a single precinct"
The 5 most important races in the country right now. A thread:
1. Liz Cheney, Wyoming, the Vice-Chair of the 1/6 committee is running in the GOP primary against a Trump-backed candidate who seeks to punish Cheney for standing up to Trump.
Vote Liz Cheney in the GOP primary!
2. Evan McMullin, former "Never Trump" independent presidential candidate, is running for Senate in Utah against the Trump-sycophant-incumbent Mike Lee.
The Democratic party of UT endorsed McMullin.
In November, regardless of your political affiliation, Vote @EvanMcMullin
3. Adam Frisch, is a centrist Democrat running in #CO03 to unseat the worst member of Congress- Lauren Boebert.
In November the choice couldn't be clearer: Vote for @AdamForColorado over a deranged, anti-democracy Lauren Boebert.
