Donald Trump Impeachment

Donald Trump or the President of The United States of America was impeached by The House of Representatives for the second time this time charged with ‘incitement of insurrection’ just a week after the Capitol mayhem (to know more about the capitol riot read here ). Due to the Capitol violence and Trump’s role in it the House voted on the impeachment 232-197 wanting Trump impeached. 10 republicans (Trump’s Party) joined the Democrats (opposition) holding Trump accountable for the Capitol violence. With Biden’s inauguration less than a week away and Trump’s end to his term, impeachment shows

how desperate the House is to remove him. The charges are justified due to Donald Trump’s speech instigating Capitol violence and mayhem. Famous actor and politician Arnold Schwarzenegger gave a message to the people through his YouTube channel talking about the violence in America and relating it to violence his family experienced before they immigrated to the US from Austria; He spoke about how proud
boys who were rioting in the capitol are nazi equivalents and we quote him “President Trump is a failed leader, He will go down in history as the worst President ever.”

Soul
Rating: ★★★
Age: All
Available On: Disney+ Hotstar
Review: Suitable for all ages, Soul takes you through an emotional and spiritual wreck through the life of an adult man, also a high school music teacher, and a jazz musician himself, who dreams to do more with his life- and on his way to one of the possible “golden opportunities”, he falls down a sewer. Joe Gardner finds himself stranded- but without his body- in a land full of souls. Seeing how grey and dull his life has become, Joe tries coming back to Earth- and he does, but in a form, he would never have expected and with a companion, he’d rather leave behind. Though this is rather slow-moving at the beginning, it is enriching and delightful to watch with the whole family.
