58. I say throw every grain of sand we can into their fascist mechanisms.

Impeachment would have to be addressed by the entire Congress, even if it doesn't pass. That will take focus and time away from other things like the Big Beautiful Bill and assisting DOGE in the dismantling the Constitution. It would show Democratic constituents that the party can put their money with their mouth is. I mean, you can take the probability of it not passing and shrug it the fuck off, because as I said in my initial response, how is voting against ANYTHING another Democrat proposes serve anything but the Republican agenda? It's the opposite of being proactive, it's the opposite of being a unified front against rising fascism, and really feels like Republican-lite. Personally, I think most (or at least 50%) of Democrats would welcome a very progressive agenda from the party leadership. Cozying up to business, playing by the rules when Republicans play by no rules, and issuing "strongly worded letters," is both wildly ineffective and seems as if the policy differences we claim are not really that important to our leadership.
