This might be brushed off by Republicans as a move by a sour loser since he lost his primaries to a Trump fanboy, but it means the GOP candidates will have to take sides on an unpopular war right before the midterms.

Are impeachment rules the same as for a President? Would he then have to be voted out?

On one hand, fuck both of these guys.

On the other, where is my popcorn?

Impeaching cabinet members one at a time is a reasonable strategy. It is certainly a good topic to get GOP election campaigns to talk about defending.

Not the indiscriminate murders of random fishermen?

Oh no, not Drunk Pete! Where else could the Republicans possibly find a colossal failure of a humanish being to pretend to be good at war?

The articles of impeachment are available at:

The articles are:

• ARTICLE III: WAGING WAR IN CONTRAVENTION OF THE WAR POWERS RESOLUTION OF 1973 SECTION 5(b)
• ARTICLE IV: IGNORING LAWS THAT MINIMIZE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES
• ARTICLE V: EXTRAJUDICIAL KILLINGS
• ARTICLE VI: SUPPRESSING FREE SPEECH
• ARTICLE VII: KIDNAPPING OF A SOVERIGN FOREIGN LEADER

It's going to be interesting which articles each representative votes for/against for the record.

Wasn't he supposed to get the Epstein files also?

It's about to get a lot worse now that the Houthis have Bab al-Mandab Strait too.

And it's not just them, all the Iranian backed militias have been cross training for the last decade.

I've been thinking for a while it's going to get really really bad right before midterms. Iran knows if Dems get control they'll reign trump in. They'll 100% manipulate gas prices to influence the election, especially since Trump burnt thru reserves already

i hate that it feels like this is the closest thing to justice we'll get for a lot of this shit hegseth is doing at krasnov's behest

As if Hegseth is the one ultimately making these decisions. Give me a fucking break 🙄

The USA decided long ago that this was fine. See Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., Obama, Biden, and Trump.

Thousands upon thousands of drone strikes, missiles, bombs, et al, at will, without regard.

The CIA is black budget. None of us are aware of what they are doing, we only know some of what they did long ago, and that was horrifying. Most of congress is as oblivious as we are.

These boat strikes are the least of it. The question to me is, why are they making this public?

You’re impeaching the wrong person. He who shall go unnamed will just find another syncophant to replace him.

Theatrics, nothing more.
