Instead, Jeffries pointed to bipartisan promises from both the House and
Senate Armed Services Committees as
"what's on the table." Flashback: When Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) forced a rogue impeachment vote against Trump in June, it failed in an overwhelmingly
bipartisan vote. β€’ Of the 207 Democrats who were present, 128 backed a Republican motion to quash Green's articles of impeachment, while just 79 voted
against it. Both Green and Thanedar are seen as relative anomalies among House
Democrats, who largely view impeachment as both a fruitless effort and a political loser with voters beyond
the party's grassroots base.

Why aren’t Democrats impeaching Trump admin officials?

Some of us have been saying for almost a year now that Jeffries has stopped impeachmentβ€”like Pelosi didβ€”because impeachment β€œpolls poorly in swing districts.” We have gotten lots of pushback.

Now reporting confirms. It’s a β€œpolitical loser” ‼️

Fundraise for Second Harvest {{MetaTags.description}}

Thank you to all who donated to Second Harvest of Silicon Valley! We hit our goal for November!

(If you can, please consider setting up a recurring donation to SHSB or your local food bank. They can use these most efficiently to feed people at risk of hunger.)

Every Democratic elected official should be saying today:

β€œKristi Noem violated the law and she WILL face consequences.” Lying about the law is not a defense.

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

There's a very interesting special election on Tuesday for House seat #TN07

@aftynbehn.bsky.social is the Democratic candidate. It would be devastating to the Republicans if Aftyn Behn wins.

@SecWar
As usual, the fake news is delivering more fabricated, inflammatory, and derogatory reporting to discredit our incredible warriors fighting to protect the homeland. 
 
As we’ve said from the beginning, and in every statement, these highly effective strikes are specifically intended to be β€œlethal, kinetic strikes.” The declared intent is to stop lethal drugs, destroy narco-boats, and kill the narco-terrorists who are poisoning the American people. Every trafficker we kill is affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization.

The Biden administration preferred the kid gloves approach, allowing millions of people β€” including dangerous cartels and unvetted Afghans β€” to flood our communities with drugs and violence. The Trump administration has sealed the border and gone on offense against narco-terrorists. Biden coddled terrorists, we kill them.

Our current operations in the Caribbean are lawful under both U.S. and international law, with all actions in compliance with the law of armed conflictβ€”and approved by the best military and civilian lawyers, up and down the chain of command.  

Our warriors in SOUTHCOM put their lives on the line every day to protect the Homeland from narco-terrorists β€” and I will ALWAYS have their back.

November 25, 2025 Last week, a poll conducted for Global EV Alliance, made up of electric vehicle driver associations around the world, found that 52% of Americans would avoid buying a Tesla for political reasons.

Consumer buying power goes back to the 1890s when women took it upon themselves to use their buying power. Learn the history here and how it effected change. Let’s use our buying power this TG weekend and not shop at Amazon, Target, and Home Depot, but instead support local business. #WeAintBuyingIt
