Why hasn't a Democrat accused the Republican's of dividing the country and asking them to unite behind impeaching Trump yet? You know, for healing.

I think Marie Newman said that more or less.

On the subject of panic buttons: Rep Bowman (D-NY16) says he didn't have them either, but in his case he never had them until they were installed today to begin with. He does note that he's new to Congress as a possible explanation for that: https://twitter.com/JamaalBowmanNY/status/1349445484029599746

Still doesn't explain the still supremely alarming case of Pressley's office however which certainly gives the impression of foul play. There needs to be an investigation and answer to that.

The vast majority of Republicans argued that Trump is a victim and that its everyone's fault but his. Blame Pelosi, blame BLM, blame Antifa. It's a joke.

I mean, the Democrats aren't "good", but I feel like the Republican party has been trying very hard in the last few months to try to be "evil" and what's worse is most of them just do not care at all.

They are currently at 7 votes, but it sounds like tep who didn't announce it voted for it, so we'll see the end tally.

Not last few months.

Last 12 years.

Yeah, they're voting electronically (aside from those who are remote voting because of COVID, those are all being announced on the floor by their designates) so there'll probably be a slightly delay between us just knowing how many Republicans voted for impeachment and the release from the clerk showing who.

I was thinking the last few years and getting worse in the last few months but I toned it down.

It's really weird to look this up and see that Andrew Johnson's own party unanimously voted for his impeachment, and it was the opposition that voted against it. Even then though, they threw two votes its way.

It's a sad number, but 10 is the minimum number of righteous people required for a community to have the potential to be redeemable.

232-197. 4 not voting (all Republicans). 10 Republicans in favor.

For comparison, the first impeachment had votes of 230-197 and 229-198 (1 present lmao, and 3 not voting) for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress respectively.

I think Johnson might be the only VP of a different party since the 12th Amendment was passed. Back then, they didn't have very good polling, and Lincoln was afraid he might lose the 1864 election, so he picked a Democrat as his VP to appeal to moderates. Based on his margin of victory I don't think Lincoln was in any real danger of losing, but Johnson got to be President.
