Surprise surprise, the congressman is literally a defense contractor. I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of innocent souls are hanging over his head.

That would be a disaster for republicans, and Israel. Defense from such charges would include a nationally broadcast detailing of the Israeli acts which gave the president pause regarding our supplying of weapons. Nobody could ignore that, it would pierce all echo chambers.

So basically, this Congressman has done anything from mildly to moderately harm the GoP's chances. If he backs down or gets reigned in, the more rabid may decide to not vote at all because, "Even the GoP is going woke". If he goes through with it and isn't reigned in, then the horrors are shown in much more detail and may get a good chunk of fence sitters to vote Dem

Am I understanding this right?

Sounds right to me.

So if Biden's actions are impeachable, and Biden acted similarly to Trump, is Mills saying that Trump should have been convicted and removed from office during his first impeachment? 🤔🤔
