Kristi Noem added to Dems’ impeachment target list, and the sentiment is… well, it’s pretty clear where people stand. The overarching feeling seems to be a combination of frustration, anger, and a desire for more than just symbolic gestures. The comments suggest that impeachment, in its current form, is seen by many as insufficient, a “catch and release” that doesn’t deliver the justice they crave.
