Impeach Cheney; Impeach Bush. Impeach Rice and Hadley. Impeach the whole festering, law-breaking, constitution-hating lot of them. Start at the top and work down or start at the bottom and work up, I don’t care.
Reclaim our country. Bring back the rule of law. Not only does our whole country deserve it, but the whole world depends upon it.

Reposting a DM I got 1:27 this AM from somebody staying up late reading my hackertastic technoparanoid thriller Acts of the Apostles. I'm happy to report that over the last 20 years I've heard from dozens of people that 1 of my novels fucked them up. It's such a great feeling.
Tamir Rice was a 12 yr old little boy murdered by cops.
Kyle Rittenhouse is a 17 yr old young man who drove across state lines with an AR-15 to murder two people.
Pam Bondi is a 54 yr old hack lawyer who took a $25K bribe from trump. https://twitter.com/NikkiMcR/status/1308588276136148994
Pam Bondi calls Kyle Rittenhouse "a little boy out there trying to protect his community."

In other words, individual people cut their carbon footprint a lot — drove less, flew less — but it barely mattered because businesses still kept emitting.
We need a robust carbon pricing system. Now. https://twitter.com/cnn/status/1308423198493609996
Emissions fell during the pandemic. But it won't have any real impact on climate change.
Exclusive data from @climateactiontr shows emissions are still higher than nations promised and much higher than they need to be to limit catastrophic climate change https://cnn.it/36b8Bd9
Ummm….was there anything in particular or just some positive affirmations to get the new Congress rolling?
I’m a big fan of the rule of law. It’s why I considered the impeachment of Bill Clinton a consumate disgrace for our Congress and the Republican party, despite the fact that it was all done “legally” within the bounds of the Constitution.
So before proceeding directly to impeachment, I shall await the results of oversight hearings and investigations. Once the evidence in is in, then we’ll see. If there is a strong prima facie case for impeachment, then by all means proceed. But this is too damn important for spleen venting and political pay back.
Just a positive affirmation, to further the propagation of the meme. “Impeach” is more catchy than “hold oversight hearings and investigations!”
Frankly, it seems pretty clear to me that Bush has committed crimes. He has in fact admitted doing so — or so it seems to me. Of course, I’m not the one who went to law school (that would be you). So of course I do not prejudge the *legal* issues.
But as a *political* issue, I very much want to further the idea that these clowns currently in charge (Cheney, Bush, etc) are subject to the rule of law just like everyone else.
And I am so fed up with the Wise Old Men and Women of the Washington DC Consensus, those inbred, out of touch pundits who control discourse on the airwaves and in the largest newspapers, who would have us believe that “civility” is all, and that what we’ve witnessed over the last six years is somehow less worthy of outrage than the faux “scandal” of Whitewater.
Anyway, I do ramble on.
About that other topic we’ve been discussing offline, I’ll give you an update later in the week.
