Never stopped. Nadler’s first question today to Director Wray of the FBI was “Were you asked by the President to investigate Joe Biden?”

Thankfully Clinton and Carter only appointed old judges.

Wasn’t it the last time Alito showed up, when Obama LIED about the SCOTUS? Cannot remember the lie, but I clearly remember Alito mouthing NO.

And how did the 9th, the 9th, people, with their record 89+% reversal rate, get flipped?

Sometimes I wonder if they truly have a clue.

They’re shocked today because everyone they know on Twitter HATES Trump.

and when they talk to the press, especially off record or just chatting, to a person they all joke and guffaw at what a dunce Trump is and what imbeciles his few (in their minds) followers really are.

How could they fail?!

It remains to be seen how badly they have been damaged by the impeachment but my guess is another round would indeed bring damage since I doubt McConnell will even give it any time at all and dismiss it from the get go. Futile gestures will bring about more bickering among the dims and the public is already somewhat exhausted over the whole mess. We are getting into the early election season and making impeachment sideshows isn’t going to play well.
