So they’re fucking around with this to waste time until Christmas break I see

It's better than the usual "government shutdown" that does nothing except inconvienence certain government workers for a few weeks. That was the usual holiday spectacle that Congress would engage in.

It hasn't gone to the senate yet and we're already in the: "The impeachment didn't really count" phase

well axesually...

Speaking Thursday in the Oval Office, Trump said it was “unconstitutional” for Pelosi to not to submit the articles of impeachment to the Senate.

“To me, it doesn’t feel like impeachment,” Trump added.

this fuckin guy

[Nintex]

Mitch: "A trial? The house would have to vote first...."
Jake: "But they did have a vote sir"
Mitch: "Really? I don't recall"
Jake: "Also speaker Pelosi send you the articles of impeachment"
Mitch: "Well the postal services aren't very reliable these days huh"


It seems they're still A/B testing the 'this is actually a good thing' or 'it didn't really happen' strategies

FACT CHECK:



https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2019/dec/19/barry-loudermilk/false-claim-comparing-jesus-pontius-pilate-and-tru/

Several passages from the New Testament of the Bible tell how Jesus appeared before Pontius Pilate, a Roman governor, before being crucified.

During Passover, Pilate freed any prisoner the people asked for. Jesus was accused of blasphemy and treason for stating he was the King of the Jews.

From Matthew Chapter 27, on the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ website:

Now Jesus stood before the governor, and he questioned him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus said, "You say so."

And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he made no answer.

Then Pilate said to him, "Do you not hear how many things they are testifying against you?"

But he did not answer him one word, so that the governor was greatly amazed.

That's not new.

Oh Trump got impeached.

There's a recap of the story thus far in the first minute of this video:


It's gotten pretty unbelievable; the writers of the Trump show are hacks.
Not sure if I can still suspend my disbelief, it's just not realistic anymore.

While you say that one of the solutions to anthropogenic climate change is population control you do never actually tell anyone how that should be done or through what mechanism. We award benji 1/16 of a Pinocchio for his troll.

Same problem in 2016, same problem now. Probably the same problem in 2024 as well.

Evangelical magazine "Christianity Today" founded by Billy Graham calls for Trump's removal

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/christianity-today-editorial-trump-should-be-removed-from-office-2019-12-19/

The article doesn't mention that the man who wrote the editorial, Mark Galli, only grew a spine now that he is about to retire, which seems to be a common theme with Trump's enablers.

[Brehvolution]

Conservative media is already trying to downplay "Christianity Today" relevance to evangelicals. 

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/christianity-todays-call-for-trumps-removal-does-not-speak-for-most-evangelical-christians
 
Fake Christians saying real Christians don't speak for them. 

[Occam]

Well, they have also been downplaying the relevance of Jesus to Christians for a long time.

[Nintex]

REAL Christians believe in the story of Christmas and the Messiah.

The story of a little boy of humble beginnings who inherited a million dollars from his father...

That's completely non-sequitur. Understanding the need for global population growth control as one necessary measure (among many) to ensure the continued existence of our species and some of what's left of nature but not offering a roadmap how to get there says precisely nothing about one's preferred political system.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/dec/20/matt-shea-domestic-terrorism-washington-state-report?

The report accuses Shea of participating in or condoning intimidation of political opponents, government officials, and minorities. The evidence for this includes chats between Shea and his associates first reported in the Guardian.

It also alleges that Shea engaged in counter-surveillance of law enforcement agencies. At one point Shea emailed a “detailed extensive law enforcement confidential information laying out the command and control structure of Washington state law enforcement agencies”, including “rosters of local FBI joint terrorism taskforce (JTTF) agents, Swat team member lists complete with names and badge numbers and the joint harbor operations command (JHOC) building schematics”.

Shea also engaged in militia training for “armed conflicts against federal, state and local governments”. He supported “the training of youth and young adults to fight a holy war”, as previously reported in the Guardian.
