House Authorizes Formal Impeachment Process


A short while ago, on a largely party line vote (232- 196), the House of Representatives passed H.Res. 660, "Directing certain committees to continue their ongoing investigations as part of the existing House of Representatives inquiry into whether sufficient grounds exist for the House of Representatives to exercise its Constitutional power to impeach Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America, and for other purposes."  You can read the resolution here (pdf).

Every Republican who voted against the resolution (as well as two spineless, careerist Democrats) voted against the national security interests of the United States, against free and fair elections, against accountability in government, and against the founding principles of our country as expressed in the Constitution.  History will remember, we will remember, and they will pay.
