Liberal US House Democrat urges Trump impeachment decision by year-end

A leading progressive voice in the U.S. House of Representatives called on Thursday for intensifying the probe into President Donald Trump's behavior in office with the goal of determining whether to impeach him by year's end.

Democratic Representative Ro Khanna, vice chair of the 98-member Congressional Progressive Caucus, told reporters he thought former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's multiple findings of obstruction by Trump formed the strongest basis for impeaching the Republican president.

"I think it would be helpful if we were able to get through the process by the end of the year, before the political season really gets on the way," Khanna said.

He was referring to the presidential nominating contests that start early next year, kicking off with the Iowa caucuses on Feb. 3. Twenty Democrats are vying for their party's nomination to face Trump in the November 2020 election.

Did Mueller's report prove that? I don't think so.

Therefore, stating same is a lie.

>>The CPC was established in 1991 by six members of the United States House of Representatives, namely U.S. Representatives Ron Dellums (D-CA), Lane Evans (D-IL), Thomas Andrews (D-ME), Peter DeFazio (D-OR), Maxine Waters (D-CA) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

founded by Bernie Sanders and Marxine Waters.

Bernie Sanders has a conflict of interest because he's running against Trump for the Presidency.

How can you call obstruction on a charge of collusion.....which not only never occurred....but appears to have been an attempt at a political coup aka “witch hunt”.

But, but, didn’t the House already hold a vote on whether or not to start the impeachment process for Trump?

".... he thought former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's multiple findings of obstruction by Trump formed the strongest basis for impeaching the Republican president...."

The same report that said that Trump did not collude with Russia like the false charge against him claimed? That's their strongest case?

Obstructing justice for something he never did but was falsely accused of for political purposes in an attempt to remove him from office? That report?

Well, if that's their strongest case, then they've got nothing on Trump.

I remember Red Ron Dellums.

I was always amazed at how he was allowed to spout what he did.

Seems to me being a Marxist automatically violates their pledge to defend the constitution and they should be expelled. If less progressive democrat leaders don’t boot them, then they should also be booted.
