According to Newsmax:
This from the Trump side --- ".... Former President Donald Trump divulged little about his future plans during a brief encounter with a reporter on Friday.... Sitting at his regular table in the Grill Room of the Trump International Golf Club at West Palm Beach, Fla., Trump was asked about his plans.... 'We’ll do something, but not just yet...' A Trump aide then swiftly, but politely, ended the encounter.... A few minutes before Trump answered the [reporter's] question, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said an article of impeachment against Trump would be delivered to the Senate on Monday...."
And this from the Biden side --- "....President Joe Biden has directed his intelligence community to study the threat of domestic extremism in the United States, an undertaking being launched weeks after a violent mob loyal to Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol.... The disclosure Friday by White House press secretary Jen Psaki is a stark acknowledgment of the national security threat that officials see as posed by American extremists.... 'The rise of domestic violent extremism is a serious and growing national security threat,' Psaki said...."
Last week, the U.S. House of Representatives in a largely party line vote impeached Trump for inciting the Capitol Hill rioting on January 6th. It's been announced that the single impeachment charge will be formally delivered to the U.S. Senate on this coming Monday; and the new Senate [Majority] Leader Chuck Schumer has said that the Trump impeachment trial will begin in the week of February 6th.
Trump had indicated previously that he was considering another run for the White House in 2024. There also have been reports of Trump's trying to create a new party, possibly to be called the "Patriot Party."
Other polling and coverage indicates that even though Donald Trump no longer holds any governmental or political office, many Democrats believe that Trump and his followers, and even Republicans generally, still pose a danger to them.
Nobody has mentioned how Trump intends to reach out to his many loyal followers --- or what he might have to say to them about what he needs for them to do in the future.
UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "MPEACHMENT TIMETABLE AGREED UPON BY SCHUMER & MC CONNELL" EDITION
ReplyDeleteVARIOUS NEWS OUTLETS HAVE REPORTED ON THE FOLLOWING TIMETABLE FOR THE IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS AGAINST U.S. CITIZEN DONALD J. TRUMP, THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, ON A SINGLE PENDING ARTICLE/CHARGE FROM THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Under the agreement between Majority Leader Schumer and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), the article of impeachment will be read at 7 p.m. on Monday, January 25th. Senators will be sworn in Tuesday and a summons will be issued to former President Donald J. Trump. Trump’s response to the article of impeachment and the House’s pre-trial brief will be due by February 2nd, and Trump’s pre-trial brief will be due six days later. The earliest that a trial could start in the Senate would be February 9th, when the House’s pre-trial rebuttal is also be due.
At this moment, it appears that the necessary super-majority vote of 67 U.S. Senators is not there to convict the former President. Furthermore, the entire impeachment process now being implemented against former President Donald Trump is constitutionally dubious.
Jim Comey recently stated Trump should be left alone. That means Trump is headed for prison. That's how these things go.
ReplyDeleteThe 67 votes are there.

ACCORDING TO THE WAPO --- THERE ARE STILL 10,000 NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS STILL BIVOUACKED IN THE NATION'S CAPITAL, NOT FAR FROM THE CAPITOL; AND MOST LIKELY, MOST OF THEM'LL BE THERE AT LEAST UNTIL THE END OF JANUARY --- WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT ??? MAYBE, IT MAKES MURIAL BOWSER --- THE GAULEITER OF WASHINGTON, D.C., NORTHERN VIRGINIA AND MARYLAND --- FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE AND SECURE, SINCE METROPOLITAN WASHINGTON, D.C., IS JUST SUCH A GIANT SOFT TARGET FOR THE NATION'S LATEST NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT "DOMESTIC TERRORISTS"
THE LEADERS OF THE NEW SECURITY STATE --- WHICH IS REALLY OLD WINE IN A DIFFERENT OLD WINESKIN BEING PEDDLED AS NEW WINE IN A NEW WINESKIN --- NEED TO REALIZE THAT ABOUT ONE QUARTER OF AMERICANS REFUSE TO CONDEMN THE EVENTS OF JANUARY 6TH..... WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT THEY REALLY SUPPORT IT, TO SOME EXTENT --- BY WAY OF COMPARISON, THE CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA'S ARMED REBELLION HAD LESS THAT TWENTY-FIVE PERSCENT SUPPORT THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE OF THESE UNITED STATES IN 1860.....
WHAT THE REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRAT POLITICAL LEADERS IN WASHINGTON, D.C., NEED TO GET THROUGH THEIR THICK SKULLS IS THAT THE REBELLIOUS AMERICANS ARE NOW ON BOTH THEIR RIGHT AND LEFT FLANKS --- AND A FEW ARMED COLUMNS OF THOSE REBELLIOUS AMERICANS OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT ARE SQUEEZING IN FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY AND THEY ARE BEING AUGMENTED BY ANOTHER COLUMN OF INTERNATIONALISTS, ROOTLESS COSMOPOLITANS AND ANARCHISTS --- BUT THE MOST THREATENING THING OF ALL TO THOSE THICKSKULLED SWAMP CREATURES OF THE DYING REGIME IN WASHINGTON IS THE >>> FIFTH COLUMN <<< ALREADY IN WASHINGTON, D.C., WAITING TO STRIKE THOSE LEADERS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL [SOME ARE AMONG THEIR COLLEAGUES, SOME ARE AMONG THEIR STAFFS, SOME ARE AMONG THE POLICE AND FEDERAL SECURITY AGENCIES, SOME ARE AMONG THE NATIONAL GUARD AND THE REST OF THE MILITARY, AND SOME ARE JUST HANGIN' AROUND APPARENTLY DISINTERESTED AND NOT BOTHERIN' ANYBODY]
GOING AFTER DONALD TRUMP IN ANY WAY AT THIS TIME IS JUST A RECRUTIING TOOL FOR THE REBELLIOUS AMERICANS (BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT) --- AND IT JUST MIGHT BE THE TRIGGER FOR WHAT IS COMING DOWN THE PIKE --- IN ANY CASE --- IT IS A BAD TACTIC AND IT IS EVEN WORSE STRATEGY FOR ANYBODY THAT WANTS SECURITY AND CONTINUITY, AND THE PROPER RULE OF LAW AND ORDER
This is what the Washington Post said recently, ".... As of Thursday, more than 10,000 Guard troops out of nearly 26,000 in D.C. for the inauguration were still on duty, according to a news release from the National Guard. About 7,000 of them are expected to remain through the end of the month...." The number of those troops, and they are troops, are also a barometer.....
Let's see if those numbers increase or decrease in February --- I'M BETTING ON THE OVER....
Is that what Biggs told you?
ReplyDeleteCapitols. So over rated.

RESPONSE: THE "WHY DO PEOPLE USE "CAPITOLS" WHEN THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY REFERRING TO "CAPITALS" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 10:33 PM"
FLORIDA IS A STATE, NOT ANY KIND OF CAPITAL; AND WASHINGTON, D.C., IS A CAPITAL, NOT ANY KIND OF STATE
The new Capital of The Second Republic of these United States must be moved to Centralia, Kansas, because the people there are better in every way than almost any place else in the USA.
No Gale it's "Capitol".
ReplyDelete"Capital" is wealth accumulated.

I KNEW DAN QUAYLE, DAN QUAYLE AND I WERE BOTH GUESTS AND SHARED THE NEWS ONE NIGHT AT A DINNER IN THE FINANCIAL DISTRICT --- BUT I CERTAINLY AM NO DAN QUAYLE.....
BTW, YOU ARE NOT ONLY INGNORANT, YOU ARE INVINCIBLY IGNORANT --- A CAPITAL IS A SEAT OF GOVERNMENT; AND A CAPITOL MIGHT BE THE NAME OF A BUILDING IN A CAPITAL
Also, don't bet any of your capital on your actual or functional vocabulary.
