1. It's one thing to hear the bullshitter say it, it is another to see it being argued in our Senate.

And in front of our Chief Justice, no less.

And I bet the majority in our Senate will end up buying it.

2. It's amazing to see so many not only violating the oath they took, but ignoring the rule of law

But then they must think it's okay since they've seen Trump violating it repeatedly, though I'm willing to bet that he never so much as read it. Oaths, contracts and laws are for everyone else...

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

Who hired them to do a job. I'm hoping what we keep hearing comes to pass - that they're all voted out! The question is whether the voters are paying attention! *fingers crossed*
