For the second time, Donald J. Trump has been impeached by a Democrat controlled House of Representatives. Also for a second time, they have done this in the most offensive way to both the office and to the people that could possibly be accomplished. The charges are categorically false and if Mr. Trump had due process (unfortunately he has been deprived of it yet again), he would easily be able to refute these claims of inciting an insurrection:
The President incited an insurrection. As a nation, a Congress, and an American people, we must make clear that his actions were a violation of his oath & a betrayal of his office.

This move is not really aimed at Trump, it is aimed at we the people so we won't dare elect another citizen who will stand up to their power. This is the most egregious act of disunity since the secession efforts leading up to the American war between the states in the 1850s.
Well, guess what Democrats and political establishment types like Liz Cheney, you just made us more determined to bring you and you tyrannical government down, peacefully, of course.
