The next Dem administration needs to prosecute Bove and also prosecute the GOP Senators for aiding and abetting.

Impeachment is a great tool for removing unfit judges, as well.

Not with 34 or more Republicans in the Senate, though. Prosecution just needs good prosecutors and lawyers and a good jury.

No Republican-aligned person will be impeached and removed by Congress in my lifetime. It’s just not worth hoping at this point.

That assumes Rs will continue to control Congress for the rest of your liftime. I betting they won't.

There is a very good chance they will retain at least 33 Senators for a very long time. Last time the GOP had 33 Senators was in the mid 1960s. Almost 60 years ago.

It is when they control both houses that they can run the table with bs bills and regressive policies. Controlling only one house makes it very difficult if not impossible to do that.

We are talking about impeachment AND removal. It only takes 33 Senators to block that.

It assumes Rs will retain 33%+ of seats in the Senate. We’d need a bunch of states to remove themselves Civil War-style to change that.
