The President must be removed.

The President must be removed.

The President must be removed. If Congress is too cowardly to do it, his own Cabinet must.

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump.

Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our constitution and the Geneva Conventions.

Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.

This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people.

We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice. 2:17 PM · Apr 7, 2026

Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury
Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY!

The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.

This is all hands on deck—Democrats, Republicans, Independents—AMERICANS must look at using any and every tool to stop the President and his unauthorized war including the 25th Amendment, Impeachment, and War Powers Resolutions. The world is watching, and history will remember.

This is a threat of genocide and merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing and cannot be trusted.

To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury
America is at a crossroads. It’s time for Donald Trump to be removed from the Presidency. Period.

We need Republicans in Congress and the Cabinet to stand up and act immediately—human lives are on the line.

Report: Group of Women Preparing to Accuse Rep. Swalwell of Harassment

My confirmation bias is rather obvious, but I'll say that at this point, this story looks to be transitioning from rumor-grade to public accusation. It also looks to be at least some women from within the past decade. FWIW, Swillwell married his second wife in 2016. Details of his first marriage are not online that I could find. If claims of Swillwell having played mattress polo with Fang Fang are correct, Zipper-Wisdom and Swillwell are not close acquaintances.

Yesterday I wrote about the allegations that had started to circle around Rep. Swalwell as he campaigns for governor of California. A progressive Democrat named Cheyenne Hunt put out videos on TikTok alleging that a friend of hers had been sexually harassed by Swalwell and that, since talking about it, other women had come forward. In a thread on Twitter, Hunt claimed she was helping connect these women with reporters and that another, larger group of women were independently talking to reporters.

Today, Swalwell's campaign responded to the allegations by denying everything.

A spokesman for Rep. Eric Swalwell, a leading Democratic candidate for California governor, on Tuesday denounced online claims that the congressman had inappropriate relationships with young congressional staff members.

“This false, outrageous rumor is being spread 27 days before an election begins by flailing opponents who have sadly teamed up with MAGA conspiracy theorists because they know Eric Swalwell is the frontrunner in this race,” said spokesman Micah Beasley in a statement that was first reported by Politico...

“In 13 years, no one in Eric Swalwell’s Congressional office has ever been asked to sign an NDA. Ever,” Beasley said. “In 13 years, not a single ethics complaint by any staff in his office or any other office has ever been lodged. Ever.”/quote]

Maybe the claims are false, or maybe Swillwell is lying, hoping to brazen this through. If the claims are false, well, a Dem getting falsely Epsteined feels like karmic justice to me.
