    "Sadly, we lost it on Jan. 31 — when 51 senators said 'To hell with the Constitution. To hell with checks and balances. To hell with representative democracy. And to hell with a republic. We’d rather have a monarchy, instead.'" ()

    Acquittal means there isn't evidence to convict. When a defendant, or here, an impeached president, keeps a jury from hearing the evidence, there may be acquittal but there is no exoneration. In fact, the inference is, evidence was withheld because it would have proven guilt.

    . O’Donnell notes the 49 Senators who lost the vote on impeachment witnesses represent 19 million more people than the 51 Senators who won. And neocon — of all people — says “for the time being ... We are all Democrats now.” This time the GOP went too far!

    If you live in a place where they weight votes based on geography, raise obstacles to voting, let the rich and corporations buy politicians, let a leader use tax money to coerce a foreign power to attack elections, let the leader insult and undermine regions where he's unpopular,

    let the regime topple safeguards against abuses of power, watch the leader foment hate against vulnerable populations, well, when you live in a place like that, you have got to work hard to change things before the last reserves of legitimacy are drained, with all that entails.

    Imagine a DA saying “Yes this man is definitely guilty and we have witnesses who saw everything, but if I call them then he will campaign against me so I’m dropping the case.” That is basically every Republican politician today.

    So the current gave up both the independence of the Senate and the House.

    It’s been three long years since Trump first ordered a . Since then, thousands of families have been torn apart by this cruel and unjust policy.

    When Dershowitz taught me professional ethics at Harvard, his overriding message was that there is almost no such thing as unethical conduct when it comes to the zealous defense of a client. The whole semester was a prolonged exercise in self-justification for low behavior.

    In an election year, Republican presidents are immune from impeachment and Democratic presidents lose their ability to appoint Supreme Court justices.

    Don't bother with any other of the tweets in this cascade of bullshit. Here, a US Senator admits that Trump did what he's accused of doing, but is going to give him a pass anyway.

    Abuse of power is impeachable. Impeachment trials have witnesses. By rejecting these principles, the Senate does lasting harm to our constitutional republic.

    You cannot be acquitted if you don’t have a trial. You don’t have a trial if you don’t have witnesses and documentation. If Republican Senators choose a cover-up, the American people and history will judge it with the harshness it deserves.

    Here's the 23 senate seats up in 2020. We The People need to make a stand now and vote them out!

    Trump's actions were not an attack on Ukraine or on Biden, but on the integrity of the presidency, US elections and American democracy. And it was surely just the tip of the iceberg. Alexander admitting that and not caring is doubly cowardly.

    Don't be surprised, be angry. Show all of these GOP Senators treating Trump like a king that American democracy still works by voting them out. Every last one of them.
