At some point impeachment may not be sufficient.
To quote the best Vice-President in recent memory, this whistle-blower issue looks like "a big ****ing deal".
So, someone remind me. What's the penalty for treason?

1. Life without parole.
Simply because I do not believe in the death penalty.

5. Perhaps we need to expand the definition of treason. Mueller said trump knew Russian was
Helping him and tacitly(maybe) accepted it. The Russians invaded our election process, a pillar of democracy. They should be formally declared a hostile nation. Aiding and abetting a nation to sabotage American democracy, in spirit, is treason. Trump's conscious decision to not alert our authorities aided and abetted a cyber attack.

7. "At some point" - we're way past that point, friend
I say bring back the guillotine.

9. Well, back in the old days
Treason was punished by being hanged, drawn and quartered.
A convicted traitor was fastened to a hurdle, or wooden panel, and drawn by horse to the place of execution, where he was then hanged (almost to the point of death), emasculated, disembowelled, beheaded, and quartered (chopped into four pieces).
We could do it on the mall or maybe televised in front of a join session of Congress as a warning to future candidates. Either way, it would send a message.

Liberals are bloodthirsty little wanna-be tyrants, aren't they?

Demented savages.
I think maybe the Secret Service should be alerted to this.
btw, if the DUmmies think that constitutes treason, what do they think of John Kerry repeatedly meeting in Paris with the leader of the Viet- Cong to help orchestrate the anti- war protests he helped lead in order to undermine support for the war?
I'd say that would constitute treason.

It's funny how they keep alluding to the French Revolution. It ended up killing far, far more innocent French men and women, even those who were committed to it, than it did 'Aristos' or Royalists. Much like the October Revolution in Russia a century-plus later.
Draconian, brutal, as fraught with betrayals and informants as East Germany of the Bad Old Days, they were humorless, vile, incompetent, and bloodthirsty. Napoleon rose to popularity because he was seen as bringing an end to the blood-soaked chaos, only to bring about his own ultimate tragedies for his country...though still a vast improvement on the Committee for Public Safety.
It's not a good thing to wish for, but then the DUmmies take 'Stupid' to the mutant superpower level.

Time to find a new meme, this one even the DUmbocraps have given up on.

What does co-operating with the country's enemy have to do with treason? Surely we all know that the definition of treason is 'being anywhere further to the right of Joseph Stalin'.

I think you need to be schooled in the definition of treason before you start going off about the penalty for treason.

We'd need a Secret Service contingent that rivals the number of troops in the 18th Airborne Corps.
