Senate Trial of a Former President
Mitch McConnell is ok with a Senate trial for Former President Trump. On Monday the House delivered to the Senate one article of impeachment for incitement of insurrection. Or “erection” if you’re Chuck Schumer.
So, the Senate trial of Donald Trump is on. Again. But this time Trump isn’t the president. And the purpose of a Senate trial is to remove the president. At least that’s what my copy of the constitution says. It also says that when the President is tried, the Chief Justice presides. But the presiding geezer looks suspiciously like Pat Leahy. Maybe that’s because the president isn’t being tried. I’m no constitutional scholar, I just shoot the wounded. But, as Former President Trump likes to say, we’ll see.
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the The United States: But the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.

Trump Show Closes After Four Year Run
The curtain dropped on the Trump Show January 20. And Donald Trump caught the last Air Force One flight out to Mar-A-Lago.
Later that day President Biden gave an inaugural speech about unity before 25,000 occupying National Guard troops.
That evening rioters in Portland celebrated by attacking Democratic Headquarters.
Have You Ever Supported Donald Trump?
Have you ever supported Donald Trump? A lot of people have but some might be gone with the wind. In November Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, “Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future?”
No worries, AOC, people are archiving away. The archivers include the never Trump Republicans of The Lincoln Project. They’re busy filling up a database with the names of former Trump staffers. The WSJ editorial page calls it a blacklist.
The Accountability Project is also hard at work. Former Obama spokesman Hari Sevugan tweeted, “WH staff are starting to look for jobs. Employers considering them should know there are consequences for hiring anyone who helped Trump attack American values.”
Erase the Legacy of Donald Trump
“Kimberly Strassel lamented in the WSJ that rather than “embrace his legacy” Donald Trump embraced “his own grievances”… “He declared the Georgia Senate races ‘illegal and invalid,’ discouraging voting”… ” Mr. Trump is leaving, and thanks to his final denial of reality, Mr Schumer will now methodically erase his policy history.”” – CB
