Once again these people need to read the constitution. The only body that can hold a president accountable is congress!

"Time is our most precious commodity, once a second is gone it can't be reclaimed it's lost forever." Donald Trump is wasting our lives. Dump Trump and get back to real life. America has serious business and needs serious people to take care of that business. Dump the SCOTUS who are accomplices to Donald Trump's nonsense.

Americans will vote for democracy in November 2024.
