Won't be impeached, though. Won't be prosecuted after the fact, either. There are far more of us than there are of POTUS, SCOTUS and Congress. Not sure why it's so quiet out there.

it is quiet because the few that pillage us made us all quiet (social media immensely helped)

Impeachment and conviction are pipe dreams. Protesting in-person is basically pointless virtue signaling because it lacks effective impact without the sustained and organized effort with specific, reasonable, realistic demands of millions of people bringing the economy to a screeching halt by not working, not buying anything, and impeding commercial transportation. 5-6 weeks and the king would need to abdicate. Also need to go: - PACs, especially AIPAC - Citizens' United - Non-independent state-level gerrymandering - Campaign finance corruption - Financial conflicts of interest, i.e., emoluments, stock trading, and insider disclosure to friends/family Required: - National voting holiday, perhaps combined with the July 4 holiday weekend - Score Then Automatic Runoff (STAR) voting - Mandatory, nationwide option for permanent mail-in ballot - Mandatory sufficient polling stations with sufficient required polling stations per capita, maximum average waiting time, maximum average driving distance, and blockchain transaction voting (not crypto bullshit, just blockchain recording) with a paper record that can be located on the public blockchain that also indicates total number of votes and the contents of all votes. With mail-in ballots, a receipt is sent to the sender similar to in-person voting and so they can prove their vote was counted themselves. Provisional ballots are only for unregistered persons without identity docs who go on a provisional blockchain until the identity verification issue is resolved. - Same day, no-registration-needed voting for any unregistered people with a valid, physical original seal birth certificate or valid passport - Restoration of the Tillman Act (prohibit corporate contributions to political campaigns)
