Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), no stranger to controversy in her brief tenure on Capitol Hill, now has surprisingly become a lightning rod for -- of all things -- her harrowing experiences during those traumatic hours of January 6 when insurrectionists overran the US Capitol.

If Donald Trump proceeds with his baseless, false charges of election fraud as a defense in his upcoming Senate impeachment trial, that would be a "wildcard," which would make the senators who would have to vote for conviction "very, very nervous," according to a prominent Republican attorney not affiliated with Trump.

Despite the protestations of many Senate Republicans, the ongoing effort to try Donald Trump after he's left office is not only constitutional -- it's grounded in solid law, according to an author and CNN legal analyst.

In an extraordinary statement, one of Washington DC's largest and most powerful pro-business trade groups is calling for Vice President Mike Pence to "seriously consider" look at using an unprecedented provision of the US Constitution to remove Donald Trump from office following a day of rioting and insurrection by Trump supporters at the US Capitol.

Although it was President Donald Trump who incited, and egged on, his supporters to storm the US Capitol Wednesday -- it fell to his democratically elected successor to address the nation regarding the abhorrent horror unfolding on Capitol Hill.

Even with just weeks left in office, Donald Trump deserves to be impeached a second time for the contents of his phone call over the weekend with Georgia elections officials, according to an erstwhile Trump staffer-turned-critic.

Journalists, a number of elected leaders, and even a smattering of Republicans are clearly losing patience with Donald Trump's dishonesty and conspiracy-mongering in service of ensuring he is installed for a second term at all costs.

In a moment unprecedented in US history, a president of the United States came before the American people to declare that the counting of votes stop in the midst of his own election--and falsely declared himself to be the winner of a second term.

The events on a Texas highway, in which apparent supporters of Donald Trump's attempted to force off the road a bus from the rival Democratic Biden/Harris campaign continued to reverberate across the nation, even as the end to the presidential campaign drew ever-closer.

Powerless to stop it, congressional Democrats could only bemoan and criticize the narrow vote by Senate Republicans just a week before Election Day to install Amy Coney Barrett on the Supreme Court.
