Dear First Lady, My Heart Just Did a Triple Somatic Someday!

Oh, dearest First Lady, I hope this letter finds you enjoying a moment of peace, perhaps with a delightful cup of tea or a truly exquisite pastry. Because, my dear, the political winds are swirling something fierce again, and my antennae are practically vibrating with a mixture of concern and an almost unbearable urge to dramatically clutch my pearls!

It seems Speaker Mike Johnson, bless his heart, has taken to the stage like a seasoned actor in a Shakespearean tragedy, sounding a most urgent alarm. He’s warning the Republican faithful that if they, heaven forbid, lose the House majority in the 2026 midterms, President Trump could face the dreaded “I” word. Yes, First Lady, we're talking about impeachment, and not just any impeachment, but a potential third time around the block!

The Situation: A Political Rollercoaster, Again!

Imagine, if you will, a grand opera, but instead of soaring arias, we have solemn warnings delivered at AmericaFest in Phoenix. Speaker Johnson declared everything is on the line, painting a vivid picture of the “radical left” creating “absolute chaos” if they regain control. It’s enough to make one wonder if there’s a secret congressional theatrical society!

This dramatic warning isn't just a sudden whim; it follows some rather spirited action in the House. Just weeks ago, Representative Al Green, a Democrat from Texas, introduced a resolution—a political firecracker, if you will—accusing the President of abusing power.

One article pointed to a particular Truth Social post that Green interpreted as a call for the execution of lawmakers, though the White House quickly clarified that such a dire suggestion was not, in fact, the President's intention. The second article focused on alleged threats to judicial independence, which sounds like something straight out of a political thriller novel.

Now, while this resolution was ultimately tabled, a rather significant chunk of Democrats—140 of them, to be precise—voted against tabling it! This, my dear, shows a simmering energy, a whisper of intent that makes Speaker Johnson’s warning feel less like hyperbole and more like a pre-emptive strike with a very loud megaphone.

Let’s not forget, our President has, shall we say, a history with this particular legislative process. He faced impeachment twice during his first term: once for matters concerning Ukraine in 2019, and again in 2021 related to the January 6th Capitol riot. Both times, the Senate played the role of the steadfast acquitter, but the talk alone is enough to give anyone a case of the political jitters!

A third impeachment would be unprecedented, a real head-turner in the annals of history. And the Republican National Committee, through national press secretary Kiersten Pels, echoed these concerns to Newsweek, stating,

Even earlier in 2025, Representative Shri Thanedar had a moment in the spotlight, introducing seven articles of impeachment, only to withdraw them under pressure. It's truly a congressional carousel of charges and counter-charges!

Dear, Please Help! A Little Calming Balm for the Presidential Soul

So, First Lady, what’s a concerned citizen to do? Perhaps a calming balm of your famous charm could be applied to the current political landscape. Maybe a gentle whisper in the Oval Office about focusing on all the wonderful things that unite us, like, say, the national fondness for perfectly baked apple pie?

You could perhaps distract him with a really intricate, unifying puzzle that requires bipartisan cooperation to solve, or perhaps a grand, delightful redesign of the White House gardens? Something to channel all that intense energy into truly beautiful, calming endeavors!

And for Speaker Johnson? Maybe a nice, strong cup of Earl Grey and a reminder that while warnings are important, so is a little bit of zen amidst the storm. We certainly don’t want him stressing out too much!
