Over the weekend, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called out Democrats for a national scandal. AOC released and retweeted multiple tweets calling out Democrats inaction on impeachment. Of course, AOC and the squad have been pushing for impeachment as activists since Trump was elected and have continued upon arrival in the House.
At this point, the bigger national scandal isn’t the president’s lawbreaking behavior – it is the Democratic Party’s refusal to impeach him for it.

It is one thing for a sitting president to break the law. It’s another to let him.
The integrity of our democracy isn’t threatened when a president breaks the law. It‘s threatened when we do nothing about it.
The GOP’s silence & refusal to act shouldn’t be a surprise. Ours is.

AOC’s calls for action weren’t the only ones. 2020 Democratic Presidential Candidate Beto O’Rourke was quick to respond to a tweet where it was said Speaker Pelosi was still not in favor of impeachment. This suggestion continues to highlight the divide among Democrats on impeachment that was discussed in a recent post on our site.
What is Congress waiting for? This is crazy. Unless we take action now, we will see the end of American democracy. https://t.co/r1reJ0br0i

Elizabeth Warren also got in on the action over the weekend. Just a reminder, Warren has a law degree from Rutgers University. Typically, you are innocent until proven guilty. Apparently that does not apply to a Republican President. Warren called for impeachment based on the lack of evidence in the Mueller report and the reported activity in the recent whistleblower complaint.
A president is sitting in the Oval Office, right now, who continues to commit crimes. He continues because he knows his Justice Department won't act and believes Congress won’t either. Today’s news confirmed he thinks he’s above the law. If we do nothing, he’ll be right.

In 1974, Democrats and Republicans united in support of impeachment not out of mutual contempt for Nixon but mutual respect for the rule of law. Congress refused to be complicit in future law-breaking by Nixon or other presidents. It’s time for this Congress to step up and act.

Speaker Pelosi had indicated previously that she would not support impeachment until the public supported it. Recent polls show that the public is still not supporting impeachment at this point. These recent actions by Trump could change that, however, and Pelosi indicated on Sunday she may support impeachment in light of these new allegations. Stay tuned to The Liberty Loft as this story unfolds throughout the week as there will no doubt be new developments throughout the week.
