Green files articles of impeachment against Trump, setting up floor vote

Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) filed articles of impeachment against President Trump on Tuesday under a process that will force a House floor vote by the end of this week.

Loading...

Green introduced his articles of impeachment after the House passed a resolution largely along party lines condemning Trump for suggesting that four progressive freshman congresswomen of color - Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Ayanna Pressley (Mass.), Ilhan Omar (Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) - "go back" to their countries.

Green said that the House should go beyond condemning Trump and move to remove him from office.

It will be the third impeachment floor vote forced by Green in the last two years, but the first since Democrats took control of the House.

Green previously forced procedural votes on articles of impeachment against Trump in December 2017 and January 2018. Both efforts drew the support of about 60 House Democrats.

I have said for three years that the closer we get to jailing the Dem leadership for their crimes, the crazier and more violent they will get. YOU ARE HERE...

"Green read aloud his articles of impeachment on the House floor, saying that Trump is "unfit to defend the ideals that have made America great" and "unfit to ensure domestic tranquillity" and "promote the general welfare."

Democrats are collapsing in their own hate. They are desperate and irrational. Great candidates for a shrink convention.

Extreme kooky fringe element of the rat party. If it wasn’t Al Green, it would’ve been Mad Maxine or some other unhinged out of touch whack job.

Didn't one of the infowars guys corner Al Green in an airport? Owen Shroyer? Gads I need to look, Aha here we go. Long version. The guy is a nutcase( medical term). I think he squints his eyes to keep the last of his brain from oozing out:

Impeachment is a political act. The only questions now are will the House have the votes. After today’s escapades I’d be surprised if they didn’t.

Given Romney, Murkowski & Collins sitting over there in the Senate all spinless and such, this could be very close.

Doesn’t it take more than 51 votes to impeach?

Third try, amd public support for impeachment is only 21%

Probably all from the media sector

Ok, so you named 3. 50-50 doesn’t remove. It takes 67. You got 17 more?
