The House should immediately subpoena the President’s phone records. He was calling people during the Capitol insurrection to try to continue to delay election certification. Who else did he try to call other than Sen. Tuberville? Rudy’s calls too.

Consider this - if we had a Cheney as VP now ( @RepLizCheney ) we would have someone with the fortitude to use the 25th amendment and (as she has done) call for impeachment. #WomenRule #ImpeachmentNOW

It's pretty clear that QAnon played a central role in inspiring the siege of the Capitol. The leader of the mob that breached the Senate was wearing a Q t-shirt. The woman shot climbing through smashed out window in Speaker's Lobby was a Q believer.

So Kevin McCarthy @GOPLeader warned Republicans not to verbally attack colleagues who vote for impeachment (a vote of conscience) because it could endanger their lives but @Jim_Jordan goes on the attack against @RepLizCheney , the only women in leadership, anyway. Just vile.

Rep. Kinzinger gets it right: "Even now, many Republicans refuse to admit what happened. They continue to feed anger and resentment...On Jan. 6, that fury led to the murder of a Capitol Police officer and the deaths of four other Americans." Conviction of Trump is necessary

As Gov. Chris Christie (a Trump supporter) has said: "If this isn't impeachable, what is?" Repubs - Trump just gave you more reason to support 25th amendment and impeachment votes. Nothing approaching "appropriate" in Trump's actions last Wed.- and we are still learning more.

Asked what is his own role in the Capitol insurrection, Trump responded, “So if you read my speech, and many people have done it, and I’ve seen it both in the papers and in the media, on television, it’s been analyzed, and people thought that what I said was totally appropriate.”

While DeSantis has no hesitancy about insulting teachers, threatening public servants, and defaming the entire population of the nation’s capital, he remains curiously meek about taking on his actual primary adversary.
