35 Reasons Donald Trump Should Be Censured By The United States Congress
https://censuredonaldtrump.com/
The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives every citizen the right to petition Congress "for the Redress of Grievances." And the Senate and House of Representatives have the power to "Censure" (condemn) a sitting President for misconduct.
From the time Donald Trump assumed the Presidency, he has been engaging in continuing acts of misconduct requiring that he be Censured by both the Senate and House. While some of Trump's actions may be sufficient to support his impeachment, we believe that at a minimum they require his immediate Censure by Congress.
Actions for which he must be Censured include:
1. Firing FBI Director James Comey for his refusal to terminate the FBI's investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential election and his investigation of former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn;
2. Disclosing classified information to Russian representatives in the Oval Office on May 10, 2017;
3. Disgracing the Office of President by repeatedly and knowingly making false statements to the press and public;
4. Wrongfully admonishing Attorney General Sessions for recusing himself from the Russian election interference investigation;
5. Continuing to receive profits and Emoluments from foreign governments in violation of Article 1, Section 10 of the Constitution;
6. Ridiculing women on the basis of their looks and insinuating that they lack intelligence;
7. Withdrawing from the Paris climate accords;
8. Refusing to release his income tax returns;
9. Defending the improper effort by his son, son-in-law and Campaign Chairman to obtain damaging information from Russian sources about Hillary Clinton.
10. Encouraging police misconduct;
11. Adopting an unlawful immigration ban;
12. Adopting an unlawful ban on transgender people serving in the military;
13. Describing some violent racist protesters in Charlottesville as "very nice people";
14. Abusing the Pardon Power by pardoning flagrant law violator, Joe Arpaio;
15. Callously and cruelly withdrawing the protections of DACA from 800,000 "Dreamers."
16. Recklessly and crudely urging the owners of NFL franchises to fire players who non-violently and silently protest discrimination prior to games;
17. Recklessly threatening to “totally destroy” North Korea in violation of international law;
18. Attacking the Mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico, for seeking additional federal assistance in connection with the Hurricane Maria humanitarian crisis;
19. Ending ACA subsidies in the billions by Executive Order which will deprive low income citizens of desperately needed health care;
20. Interfering with due process and the due administration of law by urging the Justice Department to prosecute Trump’s political opponents and adversaries, and urging capital punishment of alleged criminals before trial.
21. Publishing false and inflammatory right-wing British videos allegedly depicting Muslims engaging in violence;
22. Attacking the integrity and efficiency of the FBI and lamenting the results upon the life of General Michael Flynn from his guilty plea to a federal felony;
23. Endorsing and campaigning for Roy Moore, a racist Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate credibly accused by several Alabama women of sexually assaulting them when he was in his thirties and they were teenagers;
24. Withdrawing millions of acres of federal land from protection from mining and development;
25. Uttering a racial slur against Senator Elizabeth Warren and all Native Americans;
26. Declaring in a sexist manner that Senator Kirsten Gillibrand had come to his business office “begging” for political contributions and that she “would do anything for them.”
27. Choosing multiple unfit and dangerous federal judicial nominees for lifetime appointments, including Brett Talley who has never tried a case in court and received an unqualified ranking by the non-partisan American Bar Association and Jeff Mateer who has previously described transgender youth as part of "Satan's plan”.
28. Claiming on December 28, 2017, that he had an “absolute right to do what I want to do with the Justice Department,” notwithstanding the well-established independence of the Justice Department from political influence;
29. Again threatening North Korea with the use of his “Nuclear Button,” on January 2,2018;
30. Improperly suggesting that whether he would pardon Michael Flynn would depend on the outcome of the Mueller investigation and Flynn’s testimony;
31. Threatening an author and a publisher for having published a book critical of him, in violation of the prohibition against prior restraints and the First Amendment.
32. Insulted Senator Diane Feinstein for having released publicly a transcript of a witness’s testimony in connection with a Senatorial probe of Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential election;
33. Called our country’s libel laws a “sham” and “disgrace” and said he would consider changing them when in fact they are limited by the First Amendment’s protections of free speech;
34. In a crude and racist manner insulted Haiti and certain African countries, and their citizens, at a meeting with members of Congress on January 11, 2018;
For all of these reasons, and others specified in this Petition, he should be Censured by both Houses of Congress.

Trump Encourages Police to Brutalize Suspects - Reason.com
Jul 28, 2017 · President Trump encouraged police to rough up arrested suspects in a speech in Long Island, New York, Friday afternoon, prompting cheers and applause from the audience of cops .

Yeah, because we know how reliable they are. Don't you have a reputable source?
It would be more useful to write this list of Democrat’s grievances on toilet paper and put them in the congressional washroom where they could at least serve a useful purpose. Congress is in the hands of the president’s party and his own party is not going to impeach or censure him. This is a democrat fantasy much like a Disney movie where the brooms are sweeping themselves and the birds are washing the dishes.
Everyone knew Clinton wasn't going to be impeached in the Senate but they went through the motions anyway. This isnt about getting Congress to officially censure Trump, which he wouldnt care about anyway, it is about making the case that he is a terrible president and leader of this country, and on that basis I think it is a big success.
You're wrong on both counts. He's turning out to be a good president, and a real leader, unlike that skinny, pot smoking, ass kissing wimp who preceded him.
Everyone knew Clinton wasn't going to be impeached in the Senate but they went through the motions anyway.
The opposition party (i.e. Republicans) went through the motions to impeach a democrat president. Not one democrat voted to impeach him so it was just political kabuki.
This isnt about getting Congress to officially censure Trump, which he wouldnt care about anyway, it is about making the case that he is a terrible president and leader of this country, and on that basis I think it is a big success.
A big success if the sermon is judged by the reaction of the choir. Democrats yell “Amen” as the congregation falls asleep.
it is about making the case that he is a terrible president and leader of this country
No, it's about the Democrats, the left, the liberals and YOU not getting your way. And because of that, for the past year you all have been throwing a massive temper tantrum like like you have no ability to deal with reality.
The list, and a hundred other things, clearly indicate Trump is unfit for office.
There is an ongoing desperation on the part of trumpsters and trumpster sympathizers to claim otherwise, which is why we see Vic responding, quite ineffectually, to everyone of the 35 items.
Trump cannot be "normalized" . None of us will live that long.
The list speaks for itself and is not at all difficult to understand or to concede.
The list, and a hundred other things, clearly indicate Trump is unfit for office.
And despite your best attempts - He's still in office.
The list speaks for itself and is not at all difficult to understand or to concede.
The list is nothing but the normal whining drivel we've seen from you for the past year.
None of this matters. We are stuck with this clown for the time being.
I can't help but wonder just how far down he will drag this country down, not just economically in the long run, but, to our allies whom he continues to insult and offend. He is anything but Presidential, and has little class for all his money and big talk.
I can't help but wonder just how far down he will drag this country down,
I'm still waiting for the "Down". So far....all I have had to endure so far is "UPS". OMG ! 
Nice recap of the first year of this disgraceful presidency.
You can sign the petition at the link in the seed.
Those are nice progressive interpretations. Where do I begin?
Ok let's start with #1 - Comey was fired for not telling the American Public that Trump was not a part of the investigation. Comey's firing in no way ended the investigation.
#2 sharing information with other countries is legal and common
#3 If Trump disgraced the office, the media really did a number on themselves with undocumented negative stories on Trump
#4 he was wrong on Sessions. Sessions had to recuse himself since he was part of the campaign under investigation. It did play right into Comey's hands, incredibly fast you must admit.
#5 Good luck with removing a President with that trivia
#6 Your'e right on that one
#7 The Paris accords were not doing anything about major nation polluters - just costing the US a lot of money. Call us when China & developing countries are ready to commit
#8 He dosen't have to release his tax returns. You know why he dosen't? - People like yourself.
#9 His son & son-in-law were nieve and fortunately they failed. On the other hand the Clinton campaign did collude and paid the Russians for a fictitious report that did serious damage
#10 You mean Police enforcement. Police departments are no longer under consent decrees with officers being murdered
#11 the SCOTUS says IT IS LAWFUL - The Constitution gives the President wide latitude via who get's to come into the country
#12 That is not unlawful either. Serving in the military is a privilege. The military turns away the obese. You see it's all about what is good for military readiness.
#13 Who was he talking about? I always thought he was talking about those who wanted the statues & those who didn't. There are two sides when you exclude the extremists
#14 If Obama can pardon an unrepentant terrorist and a traitor, Trump can pardon Arpaio
#15 DACA is ILLEGAL. The Federal government was about to be sued. Trump is giving Congress time to make them legal
#16 He can urge them to do anything he wants. Did you know the NBA dosen't allow a knee to the flag?
#17 Standing up to North Korea is not only long overdue - we no longer have a choice
#18 Not true. The mayor of San Juan was a Trump hating liberal who contradicted the Governor of PR
#19 The ACA subsidies were illegal. Obamacare failed.
#20 Actually he didnt. He allowed Hillary to walk even though we all knew she was guilty and Obama's Justice Department protected her
First 20 now. I'll be back to finish up
Well at least you tried Vic.
Well at least you tried Vic.
Translation:
Vic, I don't have the wherewithal to respond to your post, so I'm just pretending that you're wrong.
I doubt I will go through all Vic's objections, some of them arent objections at all in fact, but here is one - # 1
NBC News posted the full interview with Trump. The president said that he thought about “this Russia thing with Trump and Russia” when he decided to fire Comey.
“[Rosenstein] made a recommendation, but regardless of recommendation I was going to fire Comey, knowing there was no good time to do it,” Trump said. “ And, in fact, when I decided to just do it, I said to myself, I said, ‘You know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story. It’s an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won.’”
Trump wanted Comey to end the FBI investigation into his campaign and his campaign staff. Which is what #1 on the list says. Vic put his own inadequate spin on the question.
We could go down the list on the same basis.
Actually, he handed you your ass, and isn't even done yet.

Trump revealed classified information to Russians ...
May 15, 2017 · Trump reportedly revealed highly classified information to the Russians last week that the US hasn't even 'shared with our own allies'
"Trump’s "code-word information" disclosure risks damaging the relationship with the intelligence source, which has access to ISIS inner workings. "

New York Times used a full page to print Trump's lies ...
Jun 25, 2017 · The New York Times used a full page to print ' Trump 's lies' since taking office . ... lie President Donald Trump had publicly told since taking ...
#21 As opposed to him using actual videos of Muslim extremist violence
#22 Let's face facts: There was bias at the FBI, there was leaking and the Steele Dossier was most likely used to launch the "collusion" investigation. As far as Flynn goes - he was perjury trapped. Lerner, Clinton and even Comey brazenly lied with no charges filed
#23 He campaigned for Luther Strange. He warned voters when we were stuck with Moore that Moore was still better than a progressive - I agree.
#24 yup, Trump is for America being self sufficient in energy. "Elections have consequences"
#25 Sorry, that's not a slur. It was Warren who falsely claimed to be Native American and it was only aimed at her
#26 It's not sexist to report on sexual blackmail. He should join the "Me Too" movement
#27 I'm very satisfied with his judicial selections
#28 Please tell us about Justice Department Independence - starting with Obama and his DOJ
#29 That's twice youve accused him of threatening North Korea. Funny, I see it the other way around.
#30 He has that right
#31 He can scream all he wants. We don't censor books, even if the author admits the book is totally unverified second hand gossip
#32 She deserved every bit of that. She went against the chairman of the committee in pursuit of partisan goals
#33 He is frustrated by the fact that famous people have so little recourse to false claims. Do you blame him?
#34 He was bashing failed states that cause refugee problems for others - most notably the US. Race had nothing to do with it and Dicky Durbin had no business repeating it (if true), other than to try and force Trump to accept a clean DACA amnesty - NEVER WILL THAT HAPPEN!
Anything else?
The President is allowed to declassify classified information to any country.
Maybe you were not told about this on one of your loony left sites...
You see, Obama gave the Russians this info, and in return, the Russians used it to attack our allies. I'm sure it was because you didn't see it is why you did not give faux outrage. Right, JR?

McClatchy reports :
This goes to the underlying purpose of the Constitution’s foreign emoluments clause, which was designed to prevent manipulation of our democratic government by foreign powers. In response to the McClathy article, former director of the Office of Government Ethics Walter Shaub tweeted, “THIS is why conflicts of interest matter. These [examples in the report] are only the ones we’ve found. There are so many un-knowables. The burden shouldn’t be on the public to find conflicts of interest, the burden should be on the public servant to show they’ve been eliminated.”
In the case of President Trump, his conduct regarding foreign monies and benefits is egregious, widespread and worsening.

Trump didnt reveal classified information to Russia out of some grand plan. He bumbled into it because he didnt know what the fuck he was doing.
Sorry, but that is your opinion. Sane America said no big deal.
Never gonna happen, skirting the CoC [ph]
Wrong title - there's only 34. Wait, I can help:
35. His hair.
I guess people can add their own # 35. I'm sure there will be all sorts of suggestions.
Comment removed fro CoC violation [ph]
If you are proud of a president that has these 35 actions to his "credit" you need to rethink your own standards.
These "credits" are nothing more than an addition to your failed "we got him now" wish list. That list is so long you don't even know what's on it.
Thanks for acknowledging how numerous the crimes are.
What crimes? Please list the charges that have to do with this faux investigation. I'm sure your answer will be a hoot.
Well, first off JR did not write this. He merely seeded it from a legit website. Second, you haven't denied the veracity of what is said nor presented any evidence to the contrary but have instead attacked the messanger which sort of proves, well, something. In any case, the seeder is not the topic. M'kay?
Never said he did write the list, so your projection, as always, is wrong. Also, you can't deny something that there is no proof that it happened in the first place. The seeder is the one responsible for providing proof of this insane BS. Maybe you can help him.
The insane thing is you defending trump over these items.
Let's look at a random item
31. Threatening an author and a publisher for having published a book critical of him, in violation of the prohibition against prior restraints and the First Amendment.
Trump threatened to sue the author in order to have the publishing of the book stopped, even though prior restraint cannot be applied because we have a first amendment.
#31 is correct.
Legit. I've seen better drivel in the check out line at Walmart.
We are seeing some big time whining by the right here, but very little in the way of rebuttal. Actually, nothing in the way of rebuttal.
Everything on the list was said or done in a public venue. So the proof is pretty much in your face.
None I have seen, yet. Let us keep hope alive one of them will show proof one thing on that list is not true...
Instead it seems all the righties can do is assail your character and my spelling. If that is all they got you win.
I'm sure by "random", you mean "this is the only thing I can come up with after looking through all 35 BS reasons".
But let's play your silly game. So what if his lawyers threatened to sue? Not a crime. The author called the bluff and published the book early, probably too early for a judge to rule on the lawsuit.
Again, the rest of the list is simply opinion. Congress, well, except for democrats, do not censor based on the opinion of a lonely author and the even lonelier seeder.
I would be highly surprised if your petition even breaks triple digits.
It's not my petition.
No one said his stupidity is a crime, it is a gross embarrassment to the country though.
I don't see anything on this list that is untrue, although I would concede a few of them are opinion based on fact.
A list like this is good because it puts a lot of trump's travesties in one place where the weight of them in aggregate can be considered. He is a disgrace to this country.
What we are really seeing is some SERIOUS whining by the left jut by the existence of your source.
You mean that fake list of items. Congress is too busy doing the people's work than to waste time on such childish activities.
Spoken like a true Trumpster.
What's your point? What about all the disgraceful things Obama was guilty of.
Whatabout?
Is that all you can say?
Everyone knows what I'm referring to.
Only in your "his name is not Hillary, so I hate him" fantasy. If, and it's a big if...you work, will you write a check to the US treasury and give back the extra income you will be receiving starting next month? My guess is no and you will use it to but yarn for your new pussy hat.
He must have found this in a link in one of his polls that he seems to love so much.
Jeremy , Trump publicly threatened to sue an author to gain prior restraint, even though the first amendment prohibits that. Isn't the president of the United States supposed to know that?
Obviously, he feels he is above the law. After all.....he is the President. So why should he be held to abide by any laws.
Care to refute any of the 35 items on the list or are you just here to bother the seeder?
Isn't that what the Dems wanted? Thought those whining fools would have seen that as a victory.
Now the left is worried about classified information? Bradley Manning released THOUSANDS of classified documents, went to jail, GOT PARDONED and is now looking at running for office.
Because no other preceeding President made false statements.
That still hasn't seen the inside of a courtroom (without getting thrown out).
No law requiring it. Give it up already.
Much like some of his predecessors. Oh that's right, it's Trump.
With the mental issues that transgeners have, I wouldn't want to have them on patrol with me in Afghanistan.
And we are supposed to forget about the last administrations release of the criminals he pardoned?
There is a "pathway to citizenship". DACA and "Dreamers" should follow it and enter the country LEGALLY.
FUCK the NFL. The ONLY player with any balls is Alejandro Villanueva from the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The integrity and efficiency of the FBI was brought into question by THE FBI. Don't get upset that he's calling them out on something the rest of the country with a brain can see as well.
You falsely claim to be something your not, you should expect some ridicule. Apparently she and the left can't handle it.
26. Declaring in a sexist manner that Senator Kirsten Gillibrand had come to his business office “begging” for political contributions and that she “would do anything for them.”
I don't hear much from the Hague on these.
The ONLY people that went the "that's racist" route are the very people who consistently play the race card. Haiti IS a shit hole. Many African countries ARE shit holes. Take a trip and look for yourself.
Already has been done here

Donald Trump joined ABC's This Week and told host George Stephanopolous that Mitt Romney lost the 2012 presidential election to President Obama, not because of his disastrous 47% remarks , but because he released his tax returns.
So you can stop your incessant fucking whining about it. It still doesn't change my statement regarding them.
The anarchist contingent speaks up. Don't be offended if we ignore you.
A trip to a shink can help them too.
Every time I see whine seeds like this the first thing that comes to mind is Death Angel's song "
