Yes. Johnson wasnāt Republican & took office, did not have the support of Congress⦠first person impeached Taylor & Fillmore were opposites in nearly every manner. Prior to the 25th it still wasnāt up to Congress, they didnāt allow any VP to take officeā¦

Very early as none of the VPs who became president were of another party. Some might have thought that but there are no cases where any person has been called acting president after assuming the office following the death of POTUS.

Ah, irony & deflection? I wasnāt discussing child rape, but bestiality, which has gone on for the ābulk of human historyā as well. For most of Christianity, marrying a 1st cousin has been prohibited (apart from the C of E of course). My point is that your criticism seems a wee bit hypocritical.

OR has some of the clearest laws on the books that ICE is flagrantly violating. Whatās more, itās got some very robust laws supporting citizenās arrests.
Candidus š» (@candidus00.bsky.social) reply parent
Itās be nice if police, or private citizens, in OR followed this. OR has the clear laws that Feds in the state are breaking flagrantly. They are quite literally committing felonies under OR state law in the pursuit of detaining ppl for misdemeanors.

Iām guessing many are foreign trolls, probably Russian. Russia isnāt ideological in its support of MAGA, itās just trying to weaken the U.S., which means pulling on both ends. Iāve no doubt that many Bernie bros & folks blaming Biden for Gaza were foreign actors.

Whereas if the Senate doesnāt convict, heāll claim it was a hoax⦠like heās done w/ the previous 2 impeachments. You are not making serious arguments⦠are you here to troll ppl?
