I've now seen several posts from Democratic US Senators and House Reps calling for Congress to return to DC, and my only reaction to seeing these is: Do it. Just get on a plane and go back to DC. The House is in Recess, not adjourned. There was a pro forma session today. Go. Lead by example.

"Only the president knows where things stand and what he will do."

Quit asking. Yes, itโ€™s polite, considerate, but thatโ€™s over. Just do it. Make statements as to how itโ€™s going to be! Cut them off and be louder when youโ€™re interrupted with some b s. Channel Pete Buttigieg!!
Tell them what is correct & whatโ€™s going to happen, therefore.

Anyone who doesnโ€™t get back to Washington and stop this should be voted out in the next election. This is completely out of control of the electorate and they need to be there for us. I cannot live in a country that commits genocide.

The Democrats need to come together and show a united wall of force regardless of what their hapless Republican colleagues are doing. Why are they always so damned slow to act? FFS, this is important.

Because the corporate Dems work for corporations that are profiting off war
Including themselves, with their insider trading

Two sides of the same coin

United States Air Force (USAF) B-52s are departing RAF Fairford taking off fully loaded. ~7 hour combat flight time to Iran puts them in striking range by 8 pm UTC.

I hate how politicians want us to believe that they have absolutely zero autonomy, like they're toddlers in day-care or something and they need mommy to come take care of them. Rather than being grown-ass adults with even more freedom to do things than the average person.

More than that:
Go to DC. Meet in a conference room. (Or on the floor if they can)
Vote on impeachment articles. It will fall short. No matter. Publicize the vote numbers and call on Johnson to do it again on the floor.

Heโ€™s a lifelong psychopath who developed dementia.

Most likely PSP. May be getting repeated IV infusions of monoclonal antibodies every 4 weeks explaining the recurring hand bruising.

He would need regular brain MRIโ€™s at Walter Reid (no MRI at the White House).

He must be removed.

*Yesterday

The next pro forma session is on Thursday. Instead of just posting about how Congress needs to convene: get on a plane and be there to force the issue through Motions to Suspend the Rules via unanimous consent. Strike a deal with 8 GOP members to vacate the Speakership. Go. Do something.

Would it be better to get enough support to force a motion to vote to vacate the Speaker chair, then file articles of impeachment?

The country (the world) is terrified. Itโ€™s the duty of the opposition party to get to DC & hold not just 1 press conf, but repeatedly and pressure Rs, create not only awareness to the public, but build pressure on the Rs in both chambers

We are in incredible danger. Today. Now.

Ds must rise up

We should be pressuring the Dems to pressure the GOP. Most are friends with GOP reps/senators: play golf w them, go to church w them, do back-room deals w them. They should be actively pressuring their friends to do the right thing.

The pressure, on both the Dems and GOP, should be relentless.

All house Dems should sign on to impeachment, forcing their R colleagues to go on record as either condoning criminal insanity or not.
Do it NOW. Do not wait for Johnson to officially convene the body first. You all have each otherโ€™s phone numbers.
