A Note to the Professional Political Organizing Class
There are a lot of protests being organized right now. Many of them are righteous. But if you believe in the Constitution as the load-bearing structure of this republic, there is a hierarchy of urgency, and everything else is downstream of this:
If you are a political organizer who believes in this republic and its constitutional principles, there really is only one protest you should be organizing right now. It should be directed at Congress, and the demand should be: impeachment now. We insist.
Not Epstein. Not affordability. Not ICE. Not any of the other genuine emergencies that the consulting class has decided are more electorally tractable. The Constitution. The oath. The mechanism the Founders left us for exactly this moment. That is the protest. Organize it. Bring Americans to the steps of Congress. Demand Congress uphold its sacred constitutional duties.
If you feel this is not the right approach, then my charge to you is that you are historically ignorant, cowardly, and not fit for the historical moment. Sorry to be so harsh about that.
People are dying.
This is serious.
Act like it.
I ask this of the talented class of community organizers across these lands, in this land of the free and home of the brave, to make good on the sacred promise to our collective posterity, paid in blood by many who came before us. It is the least you can do.
Thank you Mike. I completely agree; a mass impeachment is what is needed at this time.
Mike, I think you've pierced to the heart of it. Everything else has faded or failed (or crashed) in the rearview mirror of recent history, and it's time to make one more legal, Constitutional attempt to rid ourselves of this blight. Then we can say we did all we could, and pursue the final recourse. In preparation for that, here's my Substack on the matter (partially inspired by Notes from the Circus):
