A democracy teetering on the precipice
/My god, I am INCANDESCENT with rage, heartbreak, and disgust tonight. The Senate impeachment trial started today, and so far, the GOP has refused to do anything but deny evidence and fact and cower in cowardice and obsequiousness. It is disgraceful and pathetic. The Senate Republicans are disgraceful and pathetic. Please contact your senators* and urge them to demand to see and hear from the abundant witnesses and evidence that trump has thus far silenced. WHO, as Hakeem Jeffries and so many others have asked, has heard of a trial with no witnesses?
The truth sets us free; shadows and secrecy are but ugly tools of injustice.
Please watch this.
