LIMA - Peru’s centrist president, Martin Vizcarra, on Friday announced he would ask for a vote of confidence from the opposition-run Congress that would empower him to dismiss lawmakers if it is rejected.

Under Peru’s constitution, presidents can dissolve Congress if the legislative body delivers two votes of no-confidence in his government or its proposed policies. The current Congress has already withdrawn its confidence in the government once. “It’s clear democracy is in jeopardy in our country, due to the congressional majority’s actions to take over institutions in order to guarantee impunity for itself,” Vizcarra said in a televised speech.

Trump Team Bets Impeachment Will Backfire on DemocratsThe White House’s release of a record of President Trump’s phone call with his Ukrainian counterpart is part of a strategy to convert the latest controversy into a political advantage. This a bet they will lose. People can actually read for themselves that Trump didn't do shit. And people can see for themselves that Biden blackmailed people and bragged about it. This will be another loss for the dems. Makes me what to vote for him twice !!
