Pelosi: Proceed With Articles Of Impeachment



In a statement this morning, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called on House Committee chairs to proceed with articles of impeachment against corrupt demagogue Donald "Impeachable Me" Trump. Following yesterday's testimony by Constitutional law experts that clarified the grounds and rationale for impeaching Trump, Pelosi said:
The president has engaged in abuse of power undermining our national security and jeopardizing the integrity of our elections. His actions are in defiance of the vision of our founders and the oath of office that he takes to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. Sadly, but with confidence and humility, with allegiance to our Founders and our heart full of love for America, today I’m asking our chairman to proceed with articles of impeachment.”
Given the questioning by House Judiciary Majority Counsel Norm Eisen and Judiciary Committee members about the "pattern of obstruction" by Trump, it's possible that, while the abuse of power, bribery, and obstruction in the Ukraine shakedown will be front and center, other supporting articles may be developed that relate to the obstruction that occurred during the Mueller investigation. Not betting on it, though, as the Speaker wants a narrower focus.

The latest national poll shows 50% of voters want Trump not only impeached, but removed from office. He will be impeached, but the lapdog Republican Senate won't remove him.
