Summary
Mike Pence has said he will not invoke the 25th amendment, so will Congress get it together to impeach Mr. Crazy while he has his finger on the nuclear button? How can we be protected from the actions of this man who Dr. Justin Frank has predicted is likely to be a danger to himself and others as the reality of his election loss sets in? Was the attack on the capitol a dress rehearsal for violence when Biden is sworn in on the 20th?
Thom dissects the implications of these events- could Trump be liable for felony murder for encouraging the attack on the capitol that led to several deaths?.. Is censoring a US President on social media a dangerous precedent?.. What must we do about all this?
