With all the shit going on here, there’s something quite therapeutic sat here in the evenings whilst relaxing, watching the news kicking off over the pond.

Saw him interviewed on CNN the other day and he was very impressive.

I see McConnell is saying no impeachment trial can begin until 19th Jan, the day before the inauguration, because Congress is technically in recess until then.

That's pretty pathetic and in a way undermines the whole point of this, but if a successful impeachment trial means Trump can never run for office again, that will be a win.

Up to 9 now on the vote....plenty of talk of Reps being scared to vote for fear of reprisals - so even bigger fair play to those 9 so far.

Closure for the majority of the US and the world. Very important

The turtle is also hedging his bets and hasn't committed either way for his vote yet.

Impeached!

Donny always wanted to be remembered - he will be now as the only US president in history to be impeached twice.

It also means he loses his $200k/year salary, $1m/year in travel costs and secret service protection for the rest of his life. So impeachment means everything.

I am crying tears of joy/relief right now.

 

[Silhillvilla]

Would still like to see him behind bars, hopefully we are a step closer tonight

Four years ago I put some money on Trump to be impeached.

Unfortunately it paid out the first time (I think it did anyway).
