The U.S. Senate voted Saturday to acquit former President Trump on a charge of “incitement of insurrection” in connection with the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol by his supporters, concluding the second impeachment trial of his term in office. A majority of senators found Trump guilty, but the vote fell short of the two-thirds margin required to convict.

A total of 57 Senators voted to convict Trump of the impeachment article brought by the U.S. House of Representatives, with seven Republicans joining all 48 Democrats in the chamber and independent Sens. Bernie Sanders and Angus King. It was the most bipartisan impeachment vote of the five in the nation’s history. Trump claimed in a statement that it was another phase of “the greatest witch hunt in the history of our country.”

So a bipartisan acquittal. Pelosi is steaming.

Now, we have to see if they'll attempt to invoke the 14th amendment and prevent him from holding office, again! I think that's the ultimate goal.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Our bloated, maggot infested politicians got reminded of this that day. They felt safe behind the elite walls of the people's house protected by police allowing them to spin their abuse of power.

Not so much.

They just started the process.

John Gotti had more class

Funny thing about the John Gotti issue. Yes, Gotti was smooth and classy. Giuliani (yes, the same) as US attorney kept trying to "get" Gotti. Flopped a couple of times. Had to get Gotti's lawyer, Bruce Cutler, tossed off the case by some legal technicality, so Giulani finally could jail Gotti. Gotti's neighborhood was quiet, and people liked him. He died in federal prison.

BTW, "New Park Pizza" still is the best.
