The House of Representatives

 The House of Representatives, tasked with upholding the integrity of the American government, now finds itself facing an unprecedented crisis in leadership. The current House Speaker, whose actions and rhetoric appear to directly contradict the principles of the Constitution, stands as a figure who must be held accountable. The idea of impeachment isn’t merely an option—it’s a necessity.

The Constitutional Crisis at Hand
How is it that we, in the midst of the 21st century, find ourselves on the verge of yet another government shutdown? The House Speaker, the very individual meant to lead and unify Congress, has demonstrated an inability—or worse, an unwillingness—to safeguard the basic functions of the American government. The people elected their representatives with the expectation that these officials would work tirelessly to keep the government functioning. Yet here we are, teetering on the edge of shutdown. This is more than mismanagement—it's negligence at the highest levels.

Moral Failures and Lack of Faith in Leadership
It is unconscionable that the country has been put in this position. The government doesn't grind to a halt simply because of complex budgeting issues or partisan disagreements. No, it halts because of failures in leadership—failures that often come from those who are too concerned with their own political fortunes and not nearly concerned enough with the well-being of the American people. How could any Speaker of the House allow this to happen, unless they had ulterior motives? One can’t help but think of the old adage: "Someone’s got their hand in the cookie jar."

The Speaker’s role is not one of symbolic leadership; it is the duty of guiding the House to legislative action and ensuring the government operates as intended by the framers of the Constitution. Yet, when we see repeated threats of shutdowns and governmental dysfunction, it becomes clear that the moral compass in that position has been skewed beyond recognition.

Impeachment as a Moral Imperative
There is no room in American government for leaders who lack the moral fortitude to keep the country moving forward. We don’t just require intelligence, competence, or experience—we require a deeply ingrained commitment to the Constitution and a moral duty to serve the people. The current House Speaker has proven they lack these qualities, and in a government as fragile and complex as ours, that’s more than enough to call for their removal. We must move forward with impeachment proceedings to restore not only the proper function of our government but the public’s trust in its leaders.

The Government Must Never Shut Down
With all the brainpower, leadership, and experience available in Washington, it seems almost absurd that the government could ever shut down. And yet it happens. Why? Because someone—or several people—are more interested in political games than in serving the American people. A shutdown, more than anything, is an indication of corruption or negligence, plain and simple.

The American people deserve better, and they deserve it now. It’s time to hold our leaders accountable and demand a government that functions properly and serves its people faithfully, without the risk of it all coming to a halt.
