For the record, I slept just fine during the Trump presidency.
It was waking up going "WTF did that dumbshit say, do or tweet while I was asleep that embarrassed us on an International stage?" that made me exhausted.

There was a hangman's noose erected just outside the Capitol grounds on which they had planned to hang Pence from after finding him in the Capitol on Wednesday. And Lindsey Graham was harassed by the mob at an airport today.
He can still be impeached even after he's out of office.TenBenny wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 8:41 pm This is going to get interesting. Mitch McConnell now says even if the House takes up impeachment proceedings next week, the Senate won't begin to dig into it until the 19th. Man, you would think he would eager to burn Trump's ass after Trump cost him his majority leadership status.
The House will likely go forward anyway because it can't not take action on this.

Exactly. The goal with an impeachment a week and a half out from inaugurating a replacement is obviously not just to remove him from office. It's to hold him accountable and most beneficially to keep this human cancerous growth from ever running for public office again.EddieVanHeineken wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 7:16 amHe can still be impeached even after he's out of office.TenBenny wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 8:41 pm This is going to get interesting.

Not only that, but some things I didn’t consider originally, he’ll lose his $200,000 a year pension, which he doesn’t need, his lifetime secret service detail, and his one million a year travel and security allowance. He needs and deserves none of this. Get him the fuck out.exitflagger wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 8:37 am Exactly.

Why wouldn't he need his pension and travel allowance? With all his loans coming due he is going to have to eat somehow.Mojo wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 8:43 amNot only that, but some things I didn’t consider originally, he’ll lose his $200,000 a year pension, which he doesn’t need, his lifetime secret service detail, and his one million a year travel and security allowance.

There's a reason Mitch said that he won't dig into until the 19th. He doesn't like to break rank and bring any thing negative on the Republican party. Once the House impeaches him next week, McConnell plans to sit on it until the 19th and then hand it over to the Democrats for the trial when they take over the Senate on the 20th. Mitch will let the Democrats Impeach, Try and decide his punishment and it keeps the Republicans from looking bad. The Constitution says the House Impeaches and the Senate holds the trial, convicts and decides the punishment. The Democrats already said they have enough votes to Impeach in the House and Convict in the Senate. Once they convict they are going to bar him from ever holding an elected office again. Nothing in the Constitution says the person has to be holding office to be Impeached, just that if still in office the Senate can remove him upon conviction. If you notice some Senate Republicans are coming out and saying they don't have time for a trial and the House shouldn't Impeach. The reason is because once the House Impeaches him, the president's powers are suspended, until the Constitutional Court (Senate) decides whether or not the President should be removed from office. No power means no more pardons, nada, shit, ziltch. He will be President in name only with no power his last days in office. In short order while to retain office he got himself barred from ever holding it again. This is the reason why he isn't resigning, White House counsel most likely told him he can't be given a pardon to stop the process.TenBenny wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 8:41 pm This is going to get interesting.

It's stuff like this that keeps me from being a Democrat. I KNOW that there are level headed people in the Republican party. For some stupid fucking reason, I still think that one of them will rise above the trash to rescue their party.ijwthstd wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 10:17 pm Rep.

Said Meijer: “They were being lied to. They were being misled. Some of my colleagues in Congress, they share responsibility for that. Many of them were fundraising off of this Stop the Steal grift.”

A million a year seems high.

If the Senate holds his Impeachment trial after Jan 19th which it looks like it will since McConnell is a spineless punk. He will keep it all because they will have no option to remove him from office once Biden is President. The highest penalty option after the 20th is to disqualify him from ever holding an elected office again at the Federal, State or local level. The Constitution and The 1958 Former Presidents Act govern this as detailed below.
The Constitution provides for only two potential punishments if an impeached president is convicted by the Senate: removal from office and disqualification from future “office of honor, trust or profit under the United States,” according to Article I, Section 3.
The 1958 Former Presidents Act assures that no president leaves office without being set for life—it guarantees a pension, access to health insurance, office space and staff. There is, however, one exception: These perks are only granted to presidents who aren’t removed from office in an impeachment trial.

In regards to the travel and security allowance they have to factor in several things and what ifs. One is round the clock security details, 3 different shifts, seven days a week for the rest of the former Presidents life. Another what if is if the former President decides to travel to a different place every week. They have to start security measures and screenings weeks before and pay each city or county the extra security costs placed on them. police over-time, etc.... If they stay in a hotel they usually rent the entire floor above and the entire floor below, out of security concerns. They don't chance some one coming through the ceiling or through the floor. It adds up after awhile.HueyRamone wrote: ↑Sun Jan 10, 2021 9:58 amA million a year seems high.
