    Lev Parnas' interview makes Watergate look like child's play. Trump knew. Pence knew. Everyone knew. No wonder Mitch McConnell doesn't want to call witnesses.

    Trump and his enablers are throwing a lavish Super Bowl party at Mar-a-Lago. The estimated cost to taxpayers: $3.4M Once again, they are using public funds to subsidize their own extravagances while cutting public funds for programs that aid the vulnerable. Shame on them.

  4. And it’s the solemn responsibility of the rest of us — who inherited our democracy from twelve generations of Americans who fought for it and sacrificed for it—to flip the Senate, and throw this tyrant out of office this November.

  6. Imagine if lawyers were allowed to give thousands of dollars to jurors just ahead of a trial. The entire impeachment process has been a window into what's wrong with our political system.

  7. If we thought Trump was brazen before, there is no telling what he’ll do once Republicans give him carte blanche to do whatever he wants in order to secure re-election. Another step toward tyranny.

  8. Trump's attorneys Ken Starr and Robert Ray contributed $8,400 to Mitch McConnell last year. Starr has also donated to Lindsey Graham's campaign. Jay Sekulow has contributed to multiple Republican senators, including Ted Cruz and John Thune. Our system is woefully broken.

  9. Puerto Rico has experienced more than 2,000 earthquakes in the last month. While we've all been caught up in the sham of an impeachment trial, thousands of Americans are dying — and not a peep from the media.

  10. Trump is not the cause of our divided nation. He is the symptom of a rigged system that was already dividing us. It’s not enough to defeat him. We must reform the system that got us here in the first place.

    Trump loves to hire the “best people”. Case in point: Jay Sekulow—one of the prominent members of his legal team. A review of his tax returns shows that $65M+ in charitable funds were paid to him & his family—who used it to buy homes, chauffeur-driven cars & even a private jet.

    “Just because actions meet a standard of impeachment does not mean it is in the best interest of the country to remove a President from office.” —An actual statement by Marco Rubio

    46 of the 47 Republicans on the three congressional committees that crafted Trump’s corporate tax cuts held stock and stock mutual funds. In turn, the stocks went up and these members got richer. If this isn’t kleptocracy, I don’t know what is?

    With the nation distracted by the impeachment trial Trump and his enablers have: --Announced new plans to scale back Medicaid --Threatened to cut Social Security and Medicare --Promised even more taxes cuts We can't tune out now. We must remained focused.

    If you are discouraged and disheartened by the impeachment trial, I understand. What we witnessed was a travesty. But this is no time for cynicism or despair. We must organize and mobilize to vote Trump and his enablers out of office this year. Turn frustration into action.

    Don't overlook Fox News' role in all of this. Trump's propaganda machine worked overtime to amplify his bogus defenses and normalize his defenders’ nonsensical arguments. They’re already going into overdrive to spin this inevitable acquittal as a win for America.

    If America’s household wealth were a pie, here’s how it would be divided up: 9 slices to the wealthy 0.8 of a slice to the upper middle class 0.2 of a slice to the middle class 0.03 of a slice to the lower middle class And the poor owe pie

    So let me get this straight: An impeached president who is on trial and up for re-election will be delivering a State of the Union address to both his jurors and prosecutors — and the voters who will decide his fate in November. We are living in a banana republic.
