House Democrats have officially pushed Speaker Nancy Pelosi to schedule a vote considering articles of impeachment for President Trump. The vote will take place Wednesday and is being spearheaded by Texas Democrat Al Green.
Green is no stranger to articles of impeachment for President Trump and has introduced them multiple times on the House floor. Theyve never received a vote. Last night he did it again, leading to a full House vote later today.
Green's latest move came after the House voted to condemn President Trump for tweets about leftist Congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib.
For months, Speaker Pelosi has desperately tried to slow down the momentum for impeachment, which is politically unpopular with voting demographics Democrats need to win or hold onto.
Given the statements made by the squads during a press conference earlier this week and during and interview with CBS News Wednesday morning, there are rough seas ahead.
Yes..the 4 Dems who identifies as Republicans (Hurd of Texas is one) needs to be replaced..
Let’s call it for what it really is... an imtweetment.
Is this still happening? Are we going to have a “live thread”?
The Dems are not going to win.
Pelosi may allow the vote. Have it fail and then she has put the impeachment thing to bed.
“What, again?”
I think he does this every Wednesday.
RE: Pelosi may allow the vote. Have it fail and then she has put the impeachment thing to bed.
How is it going to fail with the Democrats in the majority in the House?
There may be a lot more Dems who voted against impeachment then is being led on by the media
Imagine a dem elected by 3 points (before the mueller report flopped) in a district Trump won in 2016.
Alley Oop rides again!!
There doesn’t appear to be a clear Constitutional requirement for the Senate to take up an Impeachment bill from the House.
It’s possible they can table it. The political risks of doing that are not clear.
If DimoRats so much as SCHEDULE A VOTE, Trump should surround the Capitol with tanks. Nobody goes in or out until 100% of the House leadership has resigned.
Pretty sure it’s going to be on one of the cspan channels.
I will be curious to see how my annoying Democrat congresswoman votes, or if she hides out. Republicans thought they were clever when they did some redistricting to include suburban areas in with city areas. They didn’t count on the stupidity of some suburban women. Now Iowa has only 1 Republican congressman left, and they’re trying to oust him.
I don’t think Ron Paul would go for this circus. He actually approves of things Trump has said about ending the never-ending, futile wars overseas.
Yeah, but I should be the LAST person to ever comment on anyone else’s looks. Ha ha!
