House Democrat files article of impeachment against Trump
By Cristina Marcos - 07/12/17 01:53 PM EDT
Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) formally introduced an article of impeachment against President Trump on Wednesday that accuses the president of obstructing justice during the federal investigation of Russia’s 2016 election interference.
This is the first time a lawmaker has offered an impeachment article against Trump, and comes despite concern among Democrats that taking such aggressive action against the president will create backlash against the party.
A majority vote in a House now controlled by Republicans is required to impeach a president. Republicans have a 24-seat advantage.
Sherman argues that Trump’s abrupt firing of James Comey as FBI director in May amounts to obstructing justice and "high crimes and misdemeanors" amid the probes of whether Trump's campaign colluded with the Russian government to swing the election.
He cites Comey’s allegations that Trump pressured him to drop the FBI’s investigation into ousted former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn, as well as Trump’s shifting story on why he fired Comey.

Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) just what in the hell you could expect from the land of communists Democrats as jam pack California. We have the worst pile of crap in the United States and flooded with illegals will never change. In California illegals are encouraged to vote.
Now, the same ignorant morons who refuse to believe that BJ was impeached because he wasn’t REMOVED will believe that Trump was “impeached” because one Rat Rep filed, and Big Media will gladly assist.
Oh - they have “evidence”... or at least will when the same talented folks who created Obama’s face “certificate of live birth” get done creating said evidence. They must be getting close for him to file this stupid article.
“When you vote, you are a citizen,” their god the Fraud told them.
- you mean "fudge-packed" as California?
California is the home of infectious disease of every major freedom-hating, God-despising, cancer form that has been spread like an STD across this nation.
Typical LIB loser...delusional as ever. What a putz.
Looks more love Peabody.
bring it up for a vote right now.
Looks like a typical Democrat fruitcake.
[The stupid is strong with these people!]
I believe it is the spirit of antichrist trying to destroy America.
It was strong, very strong with Obama and all those who foolishly followed his spirit of antichrist lead.
It is no accident Obama left out “God” more than once......
May I start impeachment proceeding against those two? I might have more against them than they do against Donald.
Remove our President, we remove you.
On what ground? Let also dig up 2008 & 2012 campaign collusion.
Den has nothing to do,but destruction for MAGA.
There, fixed it.
“bring it up for a vote right now.”
It won’t get out of committee. If it does—when black people riot, cities burn; when we riot, continents burn.
It’s just another pathetic, sick, `rat joke.
Dems, push that button to your own peril.

Brad Sherman voted NO to a charge of CLEAR obstruction of justice by Clinton in 1998.
Sherman is a COMPLETE partisan hack.
He is also one of 48 currently sitting Democrat congresspeople who voted NO on the CLEAR Clintonian obstruction of justice.
Thanks for that information.
NOW, we need every patriot who goes on live TV to add that fact whenever questioned about Sherman’s “Bill of Impeachment”.
“...Brad Sherman? Yeah, he’s been a Clinton “brown-noser” for years... He even voted to APPROVE Slick Willy’s Obstruction of Justice. When Clinton lost his law license, Sherman should have lost his...”
Tucker had him on his show last night,Sherman
Admitted he want someone to stop Trump to twitt. He knew his case won’t pass the smell test.
