    I think the events at the Capitol spoke for themselves. There's no need to banĀ or impeach because then it becomes aboutĀ banning, censoring, etc... and the right will twist the fuck out of it.

    They need to impeach and convict Dumpster, so that he won't have chance to run again in 2024 unless the Congress decides not to disqualify him.

    If Dumpster was removed by 25th Amendment, he can run again in 2024 for sure.

    Thank you darling :horn:Ā 

    I couldn't recognize him with full clothes on :rotfl:Ā 

    I guess he belongs to the "House of Santoro"? Seth Santoro, Gage Santoro, Noel Santoro & Billy Santoro.

    Among all the Santoros, he has indeedĀ the shortest dick :chuckle:Ā  (but thick... )

  3. Trump asking aides and lawyers about self-pardon power :megamanson:
    From CNN's Pamela Brown and Jeremy Diamond | 7 hr 35 min ago

    President Trump has been asking aides and lawyers, including White House counsel Pat Cipollone, about his self-pardon power, multiple sources tell CNN.

    Some of those conversations have happened in recent weeks, one of the sources said. It is unclear if it has come up since the mayhem at the Capitol building yesterday fomented by the Presidentā€™s rhetoric or after his recent controversial call with the Georgia secretary of state. Trump has asked about the legal and political consequences of a self-pardon, according to a source close to the President.Ā 

    He has also asked for legal opinions on whether he has the authority to issue a self-pardon and has been advised on the potential political fallout. This person said it was not yet clear whether the President would follow through with a pardon for himself.

    Another person said it is not in the works in the White House counsel's office currently but that doesnā€™t mean it wonā€™t happen or that the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel is not currently reviewing the matter.Ā 

    CNN has previously reported Trump has been asking aides since 2017 about his self-pardon power and has been ā€œobsessedā€ with the idea. Recently, Trump allies such as Sean Hannity on Fox have suggested publicly that he should. Trump has also tweeted that he believes he has the power to do so.Ā 

    A presidential self-pardon is untested and experts are divided on its constitutionality. A Justice Department legal memo says the President cannot pardon himself but he can step down and ask his vice president to take over and pardon him. However, that memo is not binding.

  4. Biden has no interest in opening impeachment proceedings
    From CNN's Jeff Zeleny | 6 hours ago

    President-elect Joe Biden has no appetite for opening an impeachment proceeding against President Trump, people familiar with the matter say Thursday, as he prefers to keep his focus on taking office in 13 days.

    Sources who told CNN earlier Thursday he had no intention of weighing in on the 25th Amendment talks, they said he feels the same about impeachment.

    Itā€™s unclear whether Biden will weigh in himself ā€“ he declined to answer questions today, but might Friday ā€“ but he has made his views known that he doesnā€™t favor impeachment.

    ā€œImpeachment would not help unify this country,ā€ a person close to Biden said, who added that ā€œthis is a matter to be decided by the Congress.ā€Ā
