#2 the text of Rep Green's articles of impeachment is here and below

interestingly, it doesn't actually say which Trump action is a crime or misdemeanor, in fact in the preamble to the articles state that it doesn't matter if there is no crime

#7 I'm glad he did it. Now every congress critter will have to get off the fence and vote, just before they go out for reelection. The timing is perfect. The entire congress will be forced into a hate trump, support socialism, or support trump..

#10 Green apparently introduced similar articles of impeachment in 2017 and 2018. They were similar in failing to articulate any crimes or 'high' misdemeanors.

At the time, the WaPo and the NYTimes gave it the brushoff, perhaps they were waiting for the Mueller report to find some crime. I doubt either of these papers, or the Chi Trib or the LA Times or any of the big circulation dailies will support this.

#11 From the New York Times’ Thomas Friedman: ‘Trump’s Going to Get Re-elected, Isn’t He?’

It’s enough to wring tears of laughter from a stone.

#12 It's got some real choice segments.

That doesn’t mean a Democratic candidate should stand for nothing, just keep it simple

when the wealth of the top 1 percent equals that of the bottom 90 percent, we do have to redivide the pie.

#13 They were similar in failing to articulate any crimes or 'high' misdemeanors.

So we have a Congresscritter who's somehow dumber than AOC? Amazing.

#16 The guy's obviously a double agent working to get Trump re-elected.

Note that the allegation is "bigotry." He's saying in effect that criticism of these 4 racist nitwits = a high crime.

This loony logic is guaranteed to turn out the base for Trump - AND persuade independents who don't care for Trump that the alternative is far worse: Why wouldn't these people come after ANYONE who dares to publicly criticize Omar, Tlaib and Cortez?

#17 P2K, and unfortunately, it looks like they'll get their wish. They will literally give us no choice but to shoot them; as in, we're shooting back.

#18 Tabled with Dem votes of wisdom cowardice he vote — 332 to 95, with one lawmaker voting "present"
