A trial without witnesses and new evidence is not a trial at all. It\u2019s a cover up of Donald Trump\u2019s betrayal of our democracy. Even as the Senate failed us and ignored their oath of office, the ultimate power in our country and our government still remains with We The People. Trump is not going to protect our elections, so that means we have to.We must fight for a free and fair 2020 election.\"<\/span>\r\n# # # #<\/span>"}}]},"yoast_head":"\n\u201cReject The Cover-Up\u201d Protests In SF, LA & SD to Protest GOP\u2019s Sham Impeachment Trial -
