How To End The Constitutionalist Crisis

Thom plus logo Pundits are saying that Trump is leading us into a constitutional crisis because Barr will slow-walk every effort of Congress to do oversight, and the court proceedings will drag on past the elections. But the Constitution says that if Congress simply and officially declares that they're investigating the possibility of impeachment, then the Courts no longer play a role at all. Congress becomes, essentially, a grand jury that can call its own witnesses and issue its own decisions, including the decision to remove a president from office.

Trump has already been accused by federal courts of violating federal election laws by paying off Stormy and Karen to hide his affairs before the election, and his felonies obstructing justice are laid out in detail in the Mueller report. It's time for Congress to do its job and begin impeachment hearings.

From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
Eric Utne, Founder, Utne magazine
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
Paul Hawken, coauthor of Natural Capitalism and author of The Ecology of Commerce
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
David Korten, author of Agenda for a New Economy, The Great Turning, and When Corporations Rule the World
