impeach and remove Trump immediately.

Vance is an evil asshole, but I doubt he is clinically insane, and the mouth-foaming loyalty of most Trump cultists may be non-transferable to that little weasel.

Subpoena faster than the White House can respond and issue a press release with every subpoena.

7. Impeachment.

True, there is no hope of conviction in the Senate (unless something totally astonishing happens to wake up enough repuglikans), but trying to pass laws to undo Krasnov''s damage will go nowhere as long as he has the veto pen. A third impeachment at least will go into the history books.

Beyond that, subpoena, subpoena, subpoena, subpoena---until the chickens come home to roost.

At the same time, however, we have got to keep focus on doing what helps working Americans. That will be key to keeping the next repug as far from the White House as possible.
