Oh yeah, missed that part somehow lol, sorry about that!
Jeffries might not let it go ahead either, though. Heās quite right wing and EXTREMELY pro-corporate, so he may well have some owner donors in common with the six judicial disgraces š¤·
I mean itās possible, but weāre asking republicans to do the right thing here; and Iām pretty sure they havenāt run out of other things to try yet, so, itās gonna be a while.
The house requires a simple majority to impeach him. The senate conviction requires a 2/3ās votes

In the process, āimpeachmentā is really more like the āindictmentā of a grand jury, where the house is the jury, and it just needs a majority.
Youāre right that Johnson wonāt let it go anywhereā¦ but if those 4 jump shipā¦ caucus with the demsā¦ he wouldnāt have a say.
Donāt wake me. Itās a lovely dream, okay?
And the assent of the speaker to even let it come to a vote. Which wonāt happen as long as the Jericho Johnson has the gavel.
Incorrect. The speaker has full dictatorial control of what comes up for a vote in the first place.
It could have 75% support and it still wouldnāt get past that fundie bastard.
If they flipped, and caucused with the dems as independentsā¦ Johnson wouldnāt be speaker, now would he? Jeffries or whoever would be.
Itās a pipe dream, but itās such a very lovely pipe dream because itās actually possible.

Republicans or Hakeem Jeffries*
Not that thereās that much of a difference š¤·
Well, it might take him less time. I think we can rely on him to skip over things like āchild sacrificeā and āritual orgyā
True.
