The Republicans in Congress could remove Donald Trump any minute they wanted to. Blame them. Tell them to get rid of him. There is no daylight between the Republican Party and Donald Trump.

His crypto scam is an impeachable offense because it meets the statutory definition of the federal felony of Bribery, and Bribery is specifically enumerated in the U.S. Constitution as an offense warranting immediate impeachment of the sitting President of the United States.

Sen. Jon Ossoff has signaled support for impeaching Trump.
On Trump's meme coin last week: βWhen the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively payments directly to him, there is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense."

BREAKING: Georgia Drops Miscarriage Charges
National backlash pushes prosecutors to drop

Honestly, not my lane as just a layperson, but part of me is hoping that the FAA and all the nation's airports just unilaterally decide to slow down flights, limit the number of arriving and departing flights, to match current Air Traffic Control staffing levels, for safety reasons. It's too much.
