Today, Congressman Shri Thanedar (MI-13) introduced articles of impeachment against Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, citing a sweeping abuse of power, flagrant violations of the Constitution, and acts of tyranny that undermine American democracy and threaten the rule of law.

“Donald Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he is unfit to serve as President and represents a clear and present danger to our nation’s constitution and our democracy,” said Rep. Thanedar. “His unlawful actions have subverted the justice system, violated the separation of powers, and placed personal power and self-interest above public service. We cannot wait for more damage to be done. Congress must act.”

The resolution includes seven articles of impeachment outlining a range of constitutional violations.

    It’s a waste for a D to bring Impeachment charges. Unless Rs do it, it will never pass and will always seem politically motivated.

      Of course it’s politically motivated, trump is a shit political leader.

      He’s done exactly 2 things I agree with, kill the useless penny, and say he’ll pass a “congress can’t trade stocks” law.

      I think every single D should do it, all of them should have ALREADY condemned his high crimes. They’re cowards
