More: The Senate voted the most bipartisan margin in US history for Killer's conviction, but ten votes short of the two-thirds majority needed. House Minority leader Mitch McConnell, despite voting to acquit as a loyal member of the party of sedition (POS), issued a scathing denunciation of the former president calling his conduct "criminal". The Senate vote may not be the end of the search for his accountability as Killer once again gets away with killing democracy on Capitol Hill. He still faces two state criminal investigations, in New York and Georgia, as well as a raft of civil law suits related to his business practices. Running the country like a business--only if its a RICO!
{13.02.21}After the Senate surprisingly voted to hear witnesses, House managers struck a deal to admit Rep. Herrera-Beutler's (R-WA) notes of her conversation with Rep. Kevin McCarthy in which he described his January 6th telephone call to Killer pleading for him to stop his supporters storming the Capitol. In the January 6th phone call, the former president blamed Antifa for the insurrection taking place. A furious McCarthy told the President the rioters were breaking into his office through the windows, and asked Trump, "'Who the f*ck do you think you are talking to?' according to a Republican lawmaker [Herrera-Beutler] familiar with the call," CNN reported. The overtly partisan impeachment defense will be wrapped up this weekend with an acquittal vote expected.

The guilt of Killer for inciting an insurrection is not rationally disputable*--except for politicos bent on preserving what they see as their future careers in national politics. These supremely arrogant, selfish placeholders do not care if not disqualifying a seditionist from holding public office further degrades an already undemocratic Republic. Using a risible jurisdictional argument to cover purely partisan denial. reveals just how depraved the party of sedition is. Killer's partisan exoneration in the Senate risks placing the reigns of national government in the hands of virulent white supremacists. This is a conflict that goes back to the Civil War and beyond. America's enlightened founding is forever tarnished by the original sin of slavery, compounded by 150 years of racist insistence on white supremacy. The twice impeached leader of the forces of reaction and now the party of sedition (POS) will be back soon to haunt the body politic and unleash the Kraken!
*New reporting makes it perfectly clear that Killer was culpable of sedition. House minority leader Kevin McCarthy got into a shouting match with him when he pleaded in a phone call to the President on January 6th that he publicly instruct his mob to cease the attack on the Capitol. He refused to do so for two hours, while he impassively watched events unfold on television and his mob threatened the Vice-President's safety. This evidence of his intent is, in US Person's opinion, conclusive that he was not merely an innocent observer. McCarthy must be summoned to testify at trial to this pivotal confrontation before witnesses, if House mangers hope to obtain his conviction so obviously deserved. Congresswoman Herrera-Beutler (R-WA) took contemporaneous notes of her conversation with McCarthy on January 10th in which he informed her of his plea to the President.
