Yes it's illegal! This administration doesn't give a fuck about the Rule of Law. The Supreme Court doesn't support the Rule of Law. Trump has been given the keys to our Constitution and he's leading an assault on everything it stands for. Each day I think it can't get worse but it does. We are circling the drain.

A Case For Impeachment Against Donald J. Trump - NOW Is the Time

From John Bonifaz, a Constitutional Attorney & President of “Free Speech For People”:

There needs to be a case for IMPEACHMENT against Donald J Trump BUILT NOW, in light of all the multiple abuses of power that this president has committed since taking the oath of office again.

The framers understood we would not have any monarch or any tyrant govern this nation. We were to be a nation led by the people through a democracy and they put in the constitution clear guard rails with respect to ensuring there would NOT be a monarch or a tyrant:

Article I, establishing the United States Congress;

Article II, establishing the Presidency;

Article III, establishing the Judiciary.

Three co-equal branches of government.

But they also put in an extra guardrail, and that guard rail is the impeachment clause, Section 4 of article2. And that is what we must invoke today; no Kings in America, no monarchs in America. Donald Trump must be impeached and removed from office.

For the skeptics about this being the proper time now to impeach Trump;

1. We either have a Constitution or we don’t. We either have an impeachment clause or we don’t. We either have a democracy or we don’t.

If we are not going to invoke the impeachment clause at this present time when this president has so trampled upon the Constitution and the rule of law, we might as well give up on the Constitution.

2. We NORMALIZE this conduct, these crimes. We normalize them when we don’t name them for what they are. They are high crimes against the state. That is what an impeachment offense is.

3. Members of Congress take the same oath that Donald Trump did on January 20, 2025 to defend and protect the Constitution. They have a duty to protect and defend the Constitution in the face of this lawlessness coming out of this White House.

There are 19 grounds for impeachable offenses that can be found on:

impeachtrumpagain.org

If you don’t like those, you can add your own.

What you can’t do is stay on the sidelines in the face of this march to tyranny.

You have to stand up and abide by your oaths. If you don’t, YOU are part of the problem.

Those in Congress who were not standing with the Constitution [ when they voted to table Congressman Green’s ] are part of the problem.

If Congress were to do it’s duty and impeach Donald Trump, then the next person in line for the office would know that they’re next if they engage in those kind of abuses of power.

1. If we as a country have gone about enforcing the rule of law, enforcing the Constitution against this lawlessness, then the next person coming into the White House, who does the same thing would need to face the same kind of proceeding.

2. if JD Vance were to become president of the United States and he’s already committed abuse of power, then he’s too should replace face impeachment and removal proceedings.

There are certainly others in his administration that have colluded with him, conspired with him, to attack our Constitution, to attack our democracy, to attack the other co-equal branches of government and ought to be held accountable.

Here’s the list of lawmakers who voted either for or against Rep. Green’s recent impeachment resolution (remember, AYE is the bad vote, to table the resolution and NAY the good one),

There is no way Trump will be impeached before the midterms. His party has the power. It simply won't happen. Also, let's not forget that impeachment without removal is a public shaming, nothing else.

Bonifaz isn’t saying he will be impeached before the midterms. It is a process that takes time to BUILD the case.

Did you see Noem (who didn’t respond for 72 hours) announcing that federal funds from FEMA WON’T be helping the people from the horrific flood in Texas. “That help will have to come from the states?!”. The states that have not had time to budget and are not prepared for this.

In the meantime, our FEMA money is going toward building concentration camps like Alligator Alcatraz which is boiling people to death with no air conditioning. I bet there will be PLENTY ready to agree to impeachment proceedings now.

Start calling now!

Yes, we fight.

They weren’t soldiers.

They were farmers, printers, blacksmiths, teachers, tavern-keepers, and teenagers.

They were taxed without a voice.

Watched their livelihoods stolen.

Heard their protests ignored.

And finally said: Enough.

So they organized.

Wrote pamphlets.

Held secret meetings.

Sabotaged supply lines.

Threw tea into a harbor.

Picked up muskets and marched.

Against the most powerful empire on earth.

Against a king who thought they were too poor, too scattered, too weak to matter.

And they won.

Not because they had the most weapons.

But because they had the will.

Ordinary people made the impossible real.

Not with permission.

But with purpose.

So Today:

They aren’t soldiers.

They’re teachers, nurses, tech workers, truckers, artists, and students.

They’re taxed without safety.

Watched their wages shrink.

Heard their voices silenced.

Saw their neighbors and friends snatched in broad daylight.

Watched the sick and disabled perish without care.

Saw the country stripped of its natural resources — sold off for profit.

And finally, they say: Enough.

So they organize.

Write code.

Build mutual aid networks.

Leak the memos.

Flip the narrative.

Flood the streets.

Against billionaires who buy elections.

Against lawmakers who cage children and their parents and call it order.

Against a system that profits from their pain.

And they will win.

Not because they have the most power.

But because they have the most to lose — and the courage to fight for it.

Ordinary people, once again, making the impossible real.

Not with permission.

But with purpose.

I read something yesterday by a guy who actually lived under communism and studied systems like it. He remarked that people seemed more activated under authoritarians than we are now in our supposed "freedom." He explained that there are ways in a system like ours to tamp down the outrage into dullness and distraction. He was quite serious and concerned about the way things were going here.

Putin figured it out a while ago and gives Russians a long leash. They are led to believe they have freedom to do a lot of complaining, but watch out for Putin's whimsy. People fall out of buildings frequently.

The “way” which the founding fathers wrote into the constitution is IMPEACHMENT. Call all the Representative & Senators and implore them to vote for impeachment. There are at least 19 grounds for impeachment.

Our country has been complicit and silent for far too long. Voters didn’t vote . The level of civic engagement was low . Politics wasn’t a thing, and most weren’t aware of current events or any knowledge of the workings of government. It took this level of crisis and unrest for people to start paying attention. It’s a profoundly sad time in America. The most ignorant of people did vote… and this is what happened.

A major problem was voters registrations being purged. That’s also how Bush won. His brother purged a huge amount of voters registrations, mostly black people who would have voted democratic. It’s happening right now. Google Greg Palaste or go to GregPalaste.com. So it probably looked like they didn’t vote.

Also the Russian bomb threats closed many voting areas. People were afraid or where they normally voted was closed.

I watched Jess Craven's discussion with John Bonifaz. Very compelling. Afterward I checked the list of Democrats who voted to table the vote on the Articles of Impeachment and, lo and behold, there was my Democratic Representative. I am sending him an email asking why he voted to table the vote. And then I will let him know that he swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution and I, along with his constituents, expect him to abide by his oath. I understand there is zero chance Republicans will vote to to impeach Trump, it is OUR responsibility to make sure our Democratic representative uphold their oath of office and defend our Constitution.

Below is a another link to the list of 128 Democrats who voted to kill the impeachment vote - if your rep is on the list, demand an explanation and then tell them it is their job to defend our Constitution no matter the cost. And sign up for ImpeachTrumpAgain.org. It is up the us, the People, to tell our elected representatives to do their job!

If midterms don't show a major switch to the left putting majority Dems in both House and Senate so that he can be impeached and convicted out of office. I'm afraid it's going to have to be very bloody with loss of life. If Republicans continue to control, to me it means they have rigged the elections. Too many things have recently happened to convince me the elections aren't already rigged. Eric Trump was filmed stating he might run for president in 2028 because it would be easy to win. Little Mikey Johnson was asked if he feared losing control of the house considering how bad the people dislike the BBB. He shrugged his shoulders and said , "Not Really!"
