@OddMassHolian @GoingDownHill_ @CeceCalabrese @MassGovernor @capegunworks @CapeCodCitizens Interesting angle on mootness ... but a constitutional right doesn't disappear because of a ballot question. Rights aren't up for a vote.

[Michael Arnold @CapeCodCloser]

@Nover2A @CeceCalabrese @MassGovernor @capegunworks @CapeCodCitizens Fair point ... the Court asked Massachusetts to respond, it hasn't agreed to hear it yet. Still a good sign they're paying attention.

@yoyofakowee @CeceCalabrese @MassGovernor @capegunworks @CapeCodCitizens Well said ... the Constitution means what it says. That's not a partisan position, it's the job description.

[Mark Meckler @MarkMeckler]

It’s important to note that impeachment is a “political” act. Hamilton explained the nature of the offenses in Federalist No. 65: they “proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust. They are of a nature which may with peculiar propriety be denominated POLITICAL, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself.” He further noted that such proceedings “will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community, and to divide it into parties more or less friendly or inimical to the accused,” and that decisions risk being driven more by party strength than by the merits.

The actions claimed in Massie’s impeachment articles against Hegseth do not fall into this category.

Joseph Story similarly described the power as reaching “political offences” involving personal misconduct, gross neglect, usurpation, or habitual disregard of the public interest in office—conduct that cannot be fully captured by ordinary criminal law.

Again, I think it’s a stretch to say any of these apply here. Massie is turning this into what he states are violations of manuals of war, etc. That’s not what impeachment is supposed to be about.

Impeachment is meant as a check against genuine abuses of power or violations of public trust that cannot wait for the next election, not as a routine tool for settling ordinary political scores. In short, it is political both in the offenses it targets (breaches of public trust that harm the society) and in the institutions that decide it (elected representatives accountable to voters). History shows both serious applications of that standard and episodes driven more by partisan division.

This is clearly Massie on a continuing vendetta against Trump, etc. And it will be supported by mostly Democrats.

I will take a person with a plan over a talking point ALL DAY LONG !!!

[The Refined Populist @RefinedPopulist]

Every GOP strategist, consultant, and candidate should be forced to participate in a role-playing exercise this morning.

Your name is Bob. You’re a 49-year-old blue-collar worker in Ohio. You’ve always struggled to make ends meet. The good jobs were all shipped to China and the few remaining pay a pittance wage, undercut by endless illegal labor.

You’re a 3x Trump voter because you believed he would finally make America great again.

You put your son through Ohio State. He graduated cum laude in computer science. You couldn’t have been prouder. After months searching, he landed an entry-level job at Microsoft. Beneath his qualifications, but a good start for a smart kid.

Then he got laid off. That same month, Microsoft applied for 150,000 more H-1B visas because it can’t find qualified Americans.

Your son has spent six months back in his childhood bedroom, sending hundreds of applications without landing an interview.

On TV, Trump boasts about the greatest economy in history and how many women and minorities are finding jobs.

You decide a father-son steak night might cheer him up.

Gas is $4.50 a gallon. Filling your truck costs over $100. At Kroger, ribeyes are $30/lb. You settle for hamburger, even though 70/30 ground beef still costs $10+.

At checkout, a fat black woman is screaming at the cashier because her EBT will only cover most of the filet mignon and lobster in her cart.

You think to yourself how the Iran war has made everything expensive, but at least we’re stopping their nuclear bomb. You weren’t even sure where Iran was before you googled it after we first bombed them in March.

After dinner, you take your son to the county fair. Half the people aren’t speaking English. Virtually none of the crowd looks like you. You’re forced to leave early after a “teen takeover” turns violent. A foreign born judge pledges none of them will go to jail.

Back home, you turn on the TV. Vivek Ramaswamy is lecturing the crowd about American mediocrity and why Ohio needs more foreign talent.

Your son grows upset. You change the channel.

Now a Republican surrogate, the daughter of a governor or wife of an elderly billionaire, explains that young White men are the REAL welfare queens. They’d rather play videogames in their parents’ basements than work.

Your son says nothing. He just goes back to his childhood bedroom. You turn off the TV.

Then your neighbor starts blasting reggaeton and cracking open Modelos. He brought his cousin’s family from Mexico to help with all the minority-business contracts his construction firm keeps winning. Tonight they’re celebrating his nephew’s birth, the family’s first birthright American citizen.

You sit alone in your living room.

You worked hard, paid taxes, obeyed the law, and raised your son to do everything right. You voted Republican again and again because you believed somebody in Washington would finally fight for you.

Instead, your wages are stagnant. Groceries are unaffordable. Your community is unrecognizable. Your country is fighting another foreign war.

And upstairs, the son you sacrificed everything for is lying awake in the bedroom he slept in at twelve, wondering what the heck he’s even supposed to do with his life now.

Every time you turn on the TV, the Republicans you elected are either congratulating themselves or explaining why you and your son are the problem.

For ten years, they told you America’s future depended on your vote. Now you aren’t even sure America has a future worth defending.

The Republican Party needs to answer one simple question this morning:

You’ve spent a decade demanding Bob’s loyalty. You’ve given him stagnant wages, unaffordable groceries, another foreign war, and a son who did everything right but can’t find work.

And when they complain, you call them lazy, entitled, and racist.

What possible reason have you given Bob and his son to vote Republican? Do you honestly think you deserve their vote?

[Michael Arnold @CapeCodCloser]

Never give up ... Never give in ... @everyone

[Mark Meckler @MarkMeckler]

I’m done with the gnashing of teeth. We don’t have the luxury of whining. You know what we have right now? POWER. All of it. Still. Republicans hold the power in both chambers until January. We have the presidency. Use the power. All of it. Every single bit. Right now.

Why are we waiting for the Democrats to destroy us? Why are we waiting for them to trash the country we love? The time to act is NOW. So:

1. House: Speaker Johnson, call the House into session and pass the full agenda—deregulate, cut taxes, make health care competitive and transparent, secure the border, fix elections (SAVE Act + more), free ranchers from the meat cartel, prohibit foreign ownership of American land, create a smart data-center framework, release the files…all the files, prosecute the deep state aggressively, eliminate redundant agencies, and every other measure that helps average and especially younger Americans. No more delays. If members resist, show up at their offices until they move, and let them know they will be face bloody primaries in 2028 for their pathetic weakness.

2. Senate: Nuke the filibuster and rubber-stamp everything the House sends, without even moving a comma. Replace Thune as leader tomorrow if needed (it’s needed). Democrats have already said they’ll do it—stop handing them the weapon.

3. Trump: Veto every attempt at reversal for the next two years. Lock in 18 months of real prosperity and lower costs before the next election.

4. Iran: End it. Mission accomplished. Leave the region to manage its own affairs. Americans are tired of the flip-flops and the price we’re paying at the pump and grocery store.

5. Work in the states to call a convention of the states to pass term limits, a balanced budget amendment, tax caps, spending caps, limit SCOTUS to nine, do away with ridiculous birthright citizenship, prevent non-citizens from voting, and make universal voter ID mandatory.

Do the work. Deliver results. The economy will roar. The people will prosper. The country will be secure. Then we crush the communists in 2028 and 2030 and beyond. Stop the whining—act—for the sake of our country.

I’m sure there is more. I’m just riffing. Please add to this list.

Mass GOP Chair Amy Carnevale must RESIGN. The Massachusetts GOP is so pathetic it couldn't even run a candidate in nearly half of all races. No ground game. No fundraising. Zero help for Minogue or other GOP candidates. MA Republicans didn't flip a single seat. PATHETIC! #mapoli
