They're grinding now.  The objection to Georgia was not entertained due to lack of a senator; Treason Barbie Kelly Loeffler announced she was dropping her objection during the speeches earlier.

I, myself, am fading crazy fast.  Wonder how all these old people are bearing up.

Michigan objected and not entertained for lack of a Senator as I write.  Mississippi up now.

[Buster's Uncle]

Nevada objected, no senator.  Somebody's done a man's job in the Senate.

They might get this in the next half hour.  New Mexico up now.

[Buster's Uncle]

$#@!  Pennsylvania had a senator.  I'm going to bed.

Everyone but Bernie, Liz and the Squad is fired if the Pig is still in office when I wake up....

Impeachment will come tomorrow, after finishing the electoral Certification of Biden's win and then some sleep.  Then they can impeach if the 14th or 25th isn't invoked

[E_T]

Senate bypassed debate and has gone straight to vote:
Cruz; Hauly (sp); Hyde-Smith; Lommas (sp); Marshall; Scott of FL; Toverville(sp) all vote Aye for the objection.

[Buster's Uncle]

Ugh.

They finished certifying and went home.  Let the firings begin.

[E_T]

at 4 AM??  and after this BS, they need a day at least to see if Pence is going to do things (i.e. the 25th).  But I agree...  SOMETHING should have been brought forward during the Joint Session.  If anything to recess for a day and then to start to consider Articles of Impeachment AND/OR A Congressional Censure.

Rumour&opinion on my side of the puddle is that it won't come that far. The GOP will tough out the next two weeks with the current president still in the seat.

[E_T]

Many Cabinet Members might leave before they can agree to invoke the 25th.  As their interim replacements/deputies might not be able to, legally, as they had not yet been confirmed by the Senate, that could cause an issue it they tried before the 20th

Yeah, well that's no fun.

This was, In My Arrogant Opinion, a plot that only half executed because there was no discernable left counter-protestor presence.  The White House released a very strange -not written very clearly at all- statement late Tuesday night about Antifa=terrorism and Pig pledges to protect all that is good from The Enemy.

Step Three:  Martial Law - and Profit!


What happened yesterday makes A Lot More Sense if one assumes they were counting on a few hundred people w/ dreadlocks and baseball bats who didn't show up.  The utterly lame talk on sundry reactionary propaganda "news" channels that it was Antifa thugs in disguise makes more sense if you see it as trying to steer the plot back on track.  The appearance that many of the capitol police were not trying too god-awful hard to do their jobs makes more sense if redneckkks showing their butts in Pelosi's office was not the original plan, but improv.

Again, they're still screaming Antifa on Fox, and Step Three could still happen while the Traitor is in the White House.


Straightforward impeachment and conviction last night was the simplest and surest way to block that.

If the 25th amendment is not invoked today, Congress must reconvene immediately for impeachment and removal proceedings.

What happened at the U.S. Capitol yesterday was an insurrection against the United States, incited by President [Sleezebag].

This president must not hold office one day longer.

[Geo]

No fun, indeed.
Can you imagine the glee on say a quarter of the world's national leaders if an American president is literally marshalled out of office yelling and screaming?


What are the chances of prosecution of a former US president for inciting riots?

[Buster's Uncle]

Close to zero.

I do not say that with chipper approval.  I say it while advocating running Nancy Pelosi out of public life as a collaborator 18 years ago.


The Pig should go to prison for just what he did Saturday, and there is no justice in a country where Dick Cheney is going to die a free man.

[Geo]

It seems Georgia has turned Democratic now for the foreseeable future.
With Congress AND Senate in his hands, any predictions what soon-to-be president Biden hopes to accomplish with a sort of free run for the next two years (assuming the tide will turn in either Congress or Senate next time some of its members' seats are up to grabs).

[Buster's Uncle]

This is the Democrats you're talking about.  With the Presidency and both houses of Congress, history indicates they're already planning the circular firing squads.
