The organizers of a rally calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump said the event was held to deliver to Congress a petition with more than ten million signatures urging for the action, but only two House Democrats showed up in support. Reps. Al Green (D-TX) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) were the only two Democrats to attend and speak at the event.
They were joined by a host of leftwing organizations, including CREDO, George Soros-funded MoveOn.org, the Woman’s March — including pro-Palestinian activist Linda Sarsour — and Free Speech for People.
“I always tell people: ‘This is your House, you tell us what to do.’ This is us telling this House what to do,” Tlaib said at the rally.
“We must impeach,” Green said. “Let the Senate do what they may. We have to do what we must.”
“Each day that we wait is a day we waited too long,’ Green said. “I say we should start impeachment immediately, if not sooner.” “Tlaib introduced a resolution in late March that calls on the Judiciary Committee to investigate whether the House should impeach Trump,” the Hill reported. “It currently has seven co-sponsors, most of whom signed on after the release of a partially redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report.”
“The initiative was organized by a coalition of liberal groups, including Need to Impeach, an organization backed by billionaire Democratic activist Tom Steyer, a vocal advocate for impeachment,” CBS reported on Tlaib’s resolution.
“Green, meanwhile, forced two floor votes on impeachment in 2017 and 2018 while Republicans controlled the House and has threatened for months to force a third vote,” the Hill reported.

LOSERS!
Me, too. I always held out that someday he would change his hit song to “I’m so tired of being a pawn.”
I guess he likes his station in life. A true tool of ignorance.yt?
Ugly inside and out is right! And you can’t think of a single good thing to say about either one because there isn’t any!
Imagine the work to collect all those signatures only to have their representatives ignore them. Silly fools to believe Democrats actually care about them.
Surprised Booker wasn’t there.
Heck I’m surprised all the Rats who are running in the primary weren’t there.
Al Green? “Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone” and he’s reduced to a dim congresscreep?” That’s heartbreaking.
I was just thinking today about the “hush fund” that Congress used to settle claims by staffers/interns who complain of sexual harassment, discrimination etc. by congress critters (total of $17 million paid out over the years). Congress was asked to tell tax payers where the money went (who was paid off for charges of harassing or discriminating against whom) and Congress in effect responded, “...go pound sand, we’re not gonna tell you.”
The Big Picture: Just give us your money which we’ll use to pay off those we mistreat and don’t ask. If you show up on the steps having collected 10 millions signatures, we’re not gonna bother to show up. We’ll summon you when we need you...just keep the tax payer money flowing our way.
Here’s a link to that story - I see several news agencies talked about it for about a week and there are no recent listings per a casual Internet search (MSM dropped it like a hot potato, “Well, they said no. What’s for lunch?”).

Did they get their 10 million signatures?
I wonder how many phone books they had to go through to churn up all those “signatures”, and how many of their minions got carpel tunnel syndrome out of that job.
Al Green? “Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone” and he’s reduced to a dim congresscreep?” That’s heartbreaking.

Good news. Not the same one. The good one is now 72 and photos of congresscreep Green show a man much younger.
I don’t think it’s the same Al Green.
Interesting statistics in that article. It shows the average payout to female Congress staffers for rape or a good hair sniffing is $65,000 bucks a pop. Perhaps we could save money for the taxpayers by just hiring hookers for the Democrats?
Just going to a college campus guarantees signatures as they never know what or care about they're signing.
That’s a wonderful thought. :)
“”LOL such Jihadist losers..what happens when Trump doesnt get impeached does Tlaib blow herself up””
No astroturf in that picture. Nope, none at all!
Hopefully, Justice will find these seditious anti-American losers .
Yes, I know. I didn't actually figure anybody on here would be old enough to remember him.
Parasites.
Is tlaib telling herself what to do?
