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.

Just days after he was censured by his own political party, former Arizona Republican senator Jeff Flake defended the recent impeachment of Donald Trump for inciting the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol.

Other than perhaps the late-night comedians and hosts picking up on what can only be called the sophomoric humor of the situation, that's where this should have ended.

As Vice President Pence was "doing his job" -- and doing it in a most presidential fashion -- it must be acknowledged that he likely made a choice which carried a personal sacrifice for his ambitions.

In his Inauguration, President Biden gave voice as much to fighting for the truth as he did in his Oath to defending the Constitution itself. It would be a tough job and tall order.

The terror attack at the US Capitol -- and a number of right-wing rallies at state capitols which preceded it -- point to the need "to change some rules," according to the retired Army officer in charge of the investigation of the deadly January 6 insurrection.

Before there can be talk about unity for what divides the United States, there must be justice for the violent, authoritarian movement within the Republican Party responsible for the deadly terrorist attack on the US Capitol. That's according to a top former Republican strategist.

At a time when even elected Republicans are embracing fabulist conspiracy theories, here's one more: "the Biden crime family."

Congressional Republicans who helped incite last week's terrorist attack on the US Capitol in support of outgoing President Donald Trump should be investigated both by the House and by the FBI, according to a Democratic member of the House Judiciary Committee.
