Impeachment Brings Trump’s Struggle With Political Class to Intense Climax
Commentary
Next week, the political center-stage will be occupied by the ill-fated charade of the impeachment trial. This must be the last gasp of the notorious Democratic inability to focus for long on any political activity except hatred of the ex-president.
For five years, it has been their substitute for policy and for politics itself, and it motivated the Democrats to jam through an impeachment vote with no due process, no witnesses, or evidence, with only 10 of 207 Republicans joining them.
The former president is charged with inciting an insurrection. He urged “peaceful and patriotic” representations to the Congress, no violence, and certainly no violent overthrow of the government (which is what insurrection means).

As US President Joe Biden s dogs Major and Champ (Major is set to be the first shelter dog to live at the White House) move into the presidential residence, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki predicted that the president s first cat would dominate the internet when it is publicly revealed for the first time.
It was first reported in November 2020 that the Bidens were planning to add a cat to their family of pets when they move to the White House. It is not yet clear whether the president and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden have decided to purchase or adopt the cat. However, based on Psaki s statements, it looks like the Bidens will still go ahead with the plan.

While the U.S. hurtles through significant historical events, singer/songwriter David W. Jacobsen stops to recount the lives of obscure and notable U.S. presidents in his newest album, “POTUS.”
Jacobsen wrote songs about Herbert Hoover, Richard Nixon and Chester Arthur. Each piece is sung from the first-person perspective to give the listener an intimate look into the lives of previous commanders-in-chief.
“It’s sort of a history project with a humanizing aspect,” Jacobsen said. “These people were actually alive with thoughts and feelings even if they were deplorable human beings.”
