Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.

If you read the Board of Peace charter, you understand it has nothing to do with the American government; it's a private entity Trump created for his own enrichment.
This is an impeachable offense, and if this country were not broken he would be gone by tomorrow.
Wonderful news.

Why would you pig-headedly ignore the voice of the next generation? Why would you saddle them with debt, shrink the job market and limit their opportunities? It runs counter to everything politics and society should want for them. For all of us. Theyโre the future.
