It is not enough that we impeach Trump, we’ve already done that, twice.
Even if we did it a third time and assuming that this time we could actually convict and imprison him, that would leave all of his handpicked sycophants in place to continue the destruction of our nation and the world.
What we must do is have a type of Nuremberg trial for him and his entire cabinet…
In other words, a clean sweep!

Consider a side effect of the lawlessness, cruelty and disrespect for human rights thath has now become the signature of ICE, local Police, the National Guard, and even the United States Marine Corps since they have been deployed on American soil in violation of The Posse Comitatus The issue I have yet to see addressed anywhere is the long-term impact on our citizenry.
It has been documented all over the world, in many different times and conflicts, that when inhumane tactics are used on a civilian population, that population becomes radicalized and prone to see counter violence as the only viable alternative.

Based on facts, is a pretty scary place. A way to help wrap your brain around that one, so it's less encumbered by one's own relative biases, or comforts and discomforts, is to imagine yourself on a spaceship from a civilization with a similar ethnography as the one Gene Roddenberry purposely infused Star Trek with. The ship approaches the Earth of today, and accurately analyzes its entire mechanics on all scales, as well as highly probable outcomes in the near future relative to geologic history. From the ship you analyze everything, from the molecular... to oceans suffocating from floating plastic continents... stockpiled WMDs that can kill most of the planet's life in a few hours... right down to a police shooting in America, a Trump who is deified by so many... to the collapse of a stable biosphere, wars, tortures, extreme mass brutality everywhere, and mostly sleeping population groups enjoying a very short term bit of pseudo-democratic entertainment.
Would you want to take a one-way plunge down to Earth?

(After thanking attending officials and guests.)
Before getting into the meat of my remarks, I am compelled to address some members of the House and Senate who have displayed themselves as toadies and accomplices to a gutless wonder who, in the midst of a great world tragedy, attempted to walk away with our American Government. (Boo-ooo...!) Sure – now you boo ME! But where were you when your Government was being stolen from right under your noses?

Here is a very simple and irrefutable way for anyone to understand how the US, under 45GOP's minuscule but deadly-venomous thumb, is doing with Covid-19 relative to other countries.
For example, the mortality rate in the US per million on Sept. 23, 2020 is just over 600. In Denmark, it is just over 100. Sweden, our beloved Nordic neighbor and which began this pandemic with herd immunization in mind, is at 580.

Seems like some at NASA are seeking the "Christian God who founded America" within dark matter and energy
Lately I've been following the international effort to find evidence for dark matter which, together with dark energy, makes up almost 95% of the universe, according to accepted theory to date. Most of that research is occurring in detectors kilometers deep in the Earth's crust.

On Friday, April 10, the Queen of Denmark made a set of startling comments about anthropogenic climate change that go completely against the scientific consensus. And this came at a most unfortunate time in Denmark’s up to recent abiding by the developing scientific evidence over how to best protect society from the deadly COVID-19 fast-transmitting disease.

If ever you have been convicted
Of a major crime,
Or at least once depicted
As one who’d steal a dime,
Fear not, dear lad – or lass, perhaps,
Your hero has arrived.
He’ll spring one or all of you chaps,
Whether or not you have him jived.

The Demo debate in Vegas
Was a circle firing squad.
They sounded like Andy and Amos,
With no one deserving the nod.
Trump must have been incredulous --
Just wait for the tweet --
All of that intermural fuss
To his ears is music sweet.
