House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Friday her colleagues have decided to move forward with impeaching President Trump for a second time if he does not resign.
After an hours long meeting, the California Democrat said members of Congress hope Mr. Trump will resign but if not, they’ll move forward on their own.
“I have instructed the Rules Committee to be prepared to move forward with Congressman Jamie Raskin’s 25th Amendment legislation and a motion for impeachment. Accordingly, the House will preserve every option – including the 25th Amendment, a motion to impeach or a privileged resolution for impeachment,” she announced.

Under the 25th Amendment a president can be removed from office should the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet agree — or, alternatively, the vice president and another body that Congress designates for the purpose of determining a president’s fitness.

Pelosi is an expert on "face removal."
How much of hers is actually left?
He IS leaving! What does the crazy, bag lady want?
President Trump is crazy, Like a FOX...
The times stated are the upper limits. If everyone from Pence on down is on board it can be done in less than 24 hours...the only one not in agreement that could drag out any time would be President Trump, but that would be futile.
“So...what’s the rush?”
If they impeach him they can ban him from holding public office again. This is about 2024.
I am looking forward to when Biden is forced out by the Cabal so he can know what it feels like. They arent going to let him stay in 4 years
They do not control the executive branch yet......
Democrats haven’t learned anything in the last four years. They’re doing the exact same Bullsh!t that got Trump elected in the first place...
Donald Trump, Jr. could run instead in 2024—this impeachment stuff is just silly...there _has_ to be a better explanation.
Reading some of her comments and delusions, she is the one that needs to resign or be removed.
Where is the GOP? They need to bring out Camel Harris’ 2020 statements in support of rioting before the election.
KMA Nancy.
YES. Heard earlier today President Trump will be issuing Presidential pardons on January 19th. 😏
He doesn’t know that yet.
The Deep State is probably prepping the bio of the “right wing extremist” to bump off Biden as we speak...
who knows...the New York Times may already have it—including a photo of the guy holding a rifle at a funny angle!
Rush said dems are terrified of what Trump may do...haha
Release everything
I would LOVE to see Don Jr. run for President!
IMHO, he thinks he won and is loved by all, however, he is a place holder for Harris and doesn’t realize it yet.
There is no time for impeachment. The Dems are living in a fantasy land. Their conduct will further galvanize the division in the country. Biden will have enough on his plate just organizing his administration. With havoc in the streets, he would become a security threat because of his incompetence.
