Stopping Trump

As David Kaye Johnson notes in his op-ed:

“Pelosi waited until she got an issue that should have alarmed the Republicans, a threat to our national security. Not only did witnesses and documents show that Trump helped Moscow’s push to occupy all of Ukraine, but she also showed the world that in 2020 the president and top Congressional Republicans were spreading Kremlin propaganda about our 2016 election.” [David Kaye]

Despite the clear evidence here, the Senate Republicans acquitted him. This has emboldened Trump. Simply running on that record won't be enough.

David concedes that investigations need to continue.

Letter

Dear Representatives Jerry Nadler, Adam Shiff, Nancy Pelosi, and the entire Caucus of representatives and Senators wishing to uphold rule of law.

We face a grievous threat. We tried to impeach Donald J. Trump and the Republicans in the Senate, with only one defection, refused to hold him accountable. We now face a lawless President, who is likely to use all his powers to get away with numerous crimes. He will then, as Barr did in 1992, get the President to use his pardon power to quash any investigations. How do we stop that?

Suggestion:

What the House can do is threefold:

1. First, the house should draw up additional articles of impeachment, for all the miscreants involved in the Trump Administration. They should name William Pelham Barr, Chief of Staff Mulvaney, and list witnesses and co-defendents. And list all the evidence. When you vote on these additional articles of impeachment, refer to the coverups.
2. The Articles of impeachment should be accompanied by referrals to prosecution for Barr, Trump and All the other alleged co-conspirators. This should be voted on as part of the impeachment resolutions.
3. Finally, Congress should include a Resolution of Censure with each article and each referral for indictment.

The final resolution should say;

We pass these articles of Censure, referrals for prosecution and impeachment, without any hope that the House will conduct a trial or hear the evidence at this moment. We therefore shall hold these articles of Impeachment, open and hold them from delivery until after the morning of November 4, 2020, when we shall ask the Senate to begin deliberation, in respect for the Election. No witness or co-defendant of any party named in these cases of impeachment may have their impeachment case pardoned or commuted until these articles are delivered and the Senate has conducted a trial.
