"Torpedo" Joni Ernst on Impeachment
>
-by Vice Admiral Michael Franken (ret.)
If America had a dollar for every time DC insiders gave a reason not to hold President Donald Trump accountable, the $22 trillion national debt would be zero. Politicians and pundits of both parties have ignored common sense, moral decency, and even their own self interest to adequately confront Donald Trump first as a candidate and then as president.
Even though it appears that President Trump was caught red-handed shaking down the President of Ukraine, the conventional wisdom in Washington is that an impeachment inquiry is bad politics for candidates like me. I don’t think so...
It’s not only time to hold President Trump accountable, but those who abetted his assault on the constitution, our laws and values should be concerned.
My opponent Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) is just such a person.
Unlike “conservatives with a conscience” like Sen. Barry Goldwater, who despite his fringe views, helped “torpedo” Nixon over Watergate, Joni is among those who refuse to do their job and hold Trump accountable.
Watch my first TV ad (above) to see how we can take on Republicans like Joni, who have let Donald Trump off the hook for far too long.
Joni earned national scorn for her silence on Trump’s abuses of power. At a town hall earlier this month, Joni was confronted by a constituent from Manning, Iowa, who asked, “Where is the line? When are you guys going to say enough and stand up and say, 'You know what? I'm not backing any of this.'"
Last Thursday, Joni again repeatedly refused to answer reporters' questions on whether it’s proper for Trump to ask a foreign country to investigate a political opponent. “I don’t know that we have that information in front of us,” said Ernst; even though Trump made the request on camera on the White House lawn.
By contrast, in 2014, Joni alluded to impeaching President Obama for making recess appointments, calling him a “dictator” that was “running amok.”
In September 2019, after reviewing the transcript that launched Trump’s impeachment inquiry, Joni claimed she “didn’t see anything there.”
If Joni won’t do her job, then I will. But I need your help first, join my campaign today to keep this ad on the air.

Excellent ad!
So he's against Joni Ernst. That's a good start. What is he for besides impeaching Trump? A link to his platform page would be nice, as I refuse to donate scarce personal funds to someone unless I know what is supported and what is opposed.
We're in the process of updating the website. Mike is running on Climate Change, reigning in Wall Street greed, and health care for all.
And if/when Mike wins, he then endorses scummer for senate leadershit and becomes just another chair thermodynamic enhancer... with zero influence on anything that is ever done.
just so you realize that electing any democrap anywhere simply means that either Pelosi or scummer becomes their chamber's tyrant in total control of all things.
should be easy to understand. Pelosi was house tyrant from 2007-2011 and from 2019-present. did cheney get impeached? did we get a po? did trump get impeached for kidnapping, imprisoning and killing kids? what parts of MFA and GND have been crafted? debated? passed?
easy to understand. just so you have your eyes open. assuming you WANT to have your eyes open.
My son and daughter-in-law live in Iowa and they would really like to see the pig woman (Joni) gone! Good Luck to Mike.
At 3:20pm. I don't think you have to worry about him endorsing Schumer... there's no love loss after he/his committee spiked our vendors and senior staff.
scummer won't need his vote... but don't discount scummer's money and ability to buy them. and don't discount scummer's threats of revenge against any who do not endorse him -- he can deny them committee assignments, for instance.
scummer will be the senate democrap leader. there will only be, at most, 3 who would dare vote against him. maybe none.
