Just half an hour ago as I the Mentor am writing this, the Heir unmoored Tom Steyer from his activist emails and his National Principle channel.  The Heir's now seeing some Ed Snowdenisms in Steyer's impeachment efforts which he's pretty sure are only going to increase over time, long after Trump leaves office, to the point where there will be another Ed Snowden, who will in turn elect yet another Donald Trump.  As far as the Heir's concerned, this Need To Impeach effectively amounts to a Need To Attack Donkeys.  He's seen this around this time in 2006, which then led to his declaring a none-of-the-above political skepticism in December of that year.  And even 13 years after that point in time, he still takes a considerably different view of democracy's role in society from the rest of populace.  He's cynical about the clause of social agitation, because it's also an excuse for society to pressure people against their sense of principle, mostly just for sport, particularly when there's a main figurehead at the top of that social agitation, e.g., Ed Snowden, who outright disrespects an ordinary citizen's citizenship rights.  The Heir's not suggesting that the Donkeys For The People shouldn't move faster on impeachment proceedings, or not figure out how to better use the I word in the press.  But that last bit is just semantics for the Heir, and the way in which he sees the concept of National Principle as applying to the impeachment debate makes it all too important to discuss semantics or this will-they-or-won't-they hand-wringing on the Insurgent News Network with the Donkeys.  So here's what he's got to say about this one undemocratic function in the democratic process:

"My decisions as a citizen are between me and my God, and me and the people who understand, and are not open to negotiation with Tom Steyer, AOC, and **certainly** not Ed Snowden."
