If you read the article I linked to, you will see that legal experts are divided on the question of whether the Senate must vote on an article of impeachment from the House. If the House impeached with a simple majority (almost completely Democrats), McConnell could easily claim that the vote was partisan and just…

I don’t see impeachment as a likely outcome, principally because the Senate will never convict (in fact, it is not even clear that McConnell would even allow the Senate to vote on conviction if the House impeached).

TBH, I think you’re misreading the tweet. Trump isn’t blaming Cohen; he’s clearly putting the blame on the Democrats, as usual.

They went for them as soon as they could, only to find his tax returns were locked up before he even ran for president, which is something that only happens when the IRS is investigating the person.

True. I doubt that even the House will find enough GOP votes to override.

Good point.

You may be right. We’ll see.

Scalia is dead.

I actually believe that SCOTUS will ultimately affirm lower court decisions (to come) that override Trump’s declaration.

There won’t be an override of Trump’s veto.

But, after seeing his former BFF Cohen trestify before Congress, he’s had the horrible realization that everything he knows he’s guilty of, both legally and personally, is going to eventually come out.

The National Emergencies Act actually sets out the powers of the president in a national emergency, and staying in office is not one of them.

Nah, she told him last time, “This isn’t baseball. There’s no strike three.”

You’re hired.

If only... All of American history says otherwise. Maybe you’ve heard of Richard Nixon?

Medicare for All does have a special meaning: it means Something (but not Medicare) for All. Yay!

Less critical is probably more accurate, in that House committees, SDNY, and the New York Attorney General are all digging in.

This is slightly off topic, and way too long, but it’s a partial scorecard...

The first draft was “Be Bestier,” so...

Oh, I don’t disagree, but the “Medicare” part of Medicare for All seems to be mostly marketing and branding.
