I just rang up our freshman representative in DeeCee, Deb Haaland, and asked that she and her colleagues start working up articles of impeachment.
Haaland was quick out of the chute with a response to last night’s State of the Wall Address, saying:
“The real national emergency right now is thousands of New Mexicans not being able to put food on the table or pay rent, because of the government shutdown. New Mexicans need quality public education, good paying jobs, and a renewable-energy economy — the wall does nothing to address those issues. On day one, the House passed a bill to get federal workers back to work and paid, and now it’s time for the Senate and the President to do their part.”
I imagine that the congresswoman has a pretty full schedule, being new to the job, but as I told the woman who answered the phone, “This administration is a cartoon that never was funny, and it’s long past time the show was canceled.”

I suspect given the composition of the NM Federal delegation, they are getting a lot of that input.

We’re pretty much all Donked up, a’ight. The young lady I spoke with was very pleasant. I didn’t have to holler or nothin’.

I don’t bother phoning our so-called representatives Grassley, Ernst and King (sounds like a “1-800-Sue-the-Bastards” ambulance chasing firm, no?) for obvious reasons but I did contact them via email to let them have my thoughts on Fat Nixon’s wall ideas.
My guess is most of their supporters are chanting “Build that Wall!” as we speak so I don’t have much optimism they’ll pay attention. Mostly I do it to prevent them from honestly claiming they’ve received no objections to the idea….not that they might lie about things….

Yeah, you’re in the same leaky boat we were in back in Bibleburg. Swear to God, I was ’bout ready to get Western with one of Doug Lamebrain’s nitwits the one time I phoned his office. A spectacular waste of time. That dude won’t get turfed out until Jeebus comes back and handles the job hisselfs.

Before they get their underwear all in a twist about impeachment, how about simple passing a budget bill for the remainder of the fiscal year and over riding the veto, a bill to automatically go to a continuing resolution when appropriations are not passed, and a bill to automatically increase the debt limit. Incompetent and leaderless they are now and will remain. Watching a democracy die is driving me to drink, more.

I wouldn’t count on any of that anytime soon. The Elefinks still have a nutlock on the Senate, and those chickenshits won’t budge for fear of Ann Coulter and Flush Limburger giving them a four-handed atomic wedgie.

You’re right. Just thought I would throw out a reasonable alternative for what it is worth, which is nothing. The Turtle pulled his dickhead back into his shell to avoid getting pissed on, and he won’t come out until his wife’s boss tells him to.

If the GOP delegations showed some balls, I think Orange Hitler would dive under his desk.
