John Bonifaz: 
Yes. No question about it. And look, the other thing they say, right, and this was said by Hakim Jefferies and Katherine Clark and Pete Aguilar in their statement as to why they were voting present is impeachment is a complicated process. It requires thousands of hours of investigation. It requires multiple witnesses. 

It requires months of hearings. We are not living in a conventional time here. And we are dealing here with in plain sight clear abuses of power that don't require thousands of hours of hearings, multiple witnesses. You know, this unconstitutional attack on Iran, the most recent abuse of power here is plain as day as why Donald Trump needs to be impeached or removed from power. 

He's threatening the entire world right now with starting this illegal war against Iran. And there's no need to wait months and months for hearings in order to start the process of calling for his impeachment and removal.

Jessica Denson:
Yeah, this is another thing that I have um you know so incessantly debunked is that this has to be a drawn out investigation or it has to be something. I mean ultimately at the end of the day it is a political process. Can it mirror a traditional criminal investigation?

Sure. Does it have to in terms of fleshing out all of that? due process.
No, the result of this is not somebody going to prison. The result of this is just barring someone who has violated their oath from the Constitution from being entrusted to take that oath or hold that oath.

Absolutely. You know, we have to remember Jessica that on January 7th, 2021, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar was prepared to introduce articles impeachment the day after the insurrection and Speaker Pelosi told her not to do it.
