Democrats poised to unveil 2 impeachment articles against Trump: AP
That’s according to two sources familiar with the discussions but unauthorized to discuss the proceedings and granted anonymity.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler of the Judiciary Committee and others have not disclosed how many articles of impeachment are being prepared, but Democrats are expected to put forward at least two articles of impeachment against the president — of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. Trump and his allies railed against the “absurd” proceedings, with Republicans defending the president as having done nothing wrong ahead of the 2020 election.
“Where’s Adam?” thundered Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, the top Republican on the Judiciary Committee. “We want Schiff,” echoed Trump ally Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla. Nadler, D-N.Y., was blunt as he opened Monday’s hearing, saying, “President Trump put himself before country.” Democrats argued vigorously that Trump’s meaning could not have been clearer in seeking political dirt on Biden, his possible opponent in the 2020 election.
The Republicans tried numerous times to halt or slow the proceedings, and the hearing was briefly interrupted early on by a protester shouting, “We voted for Donald Trump!” The protester was escorted from the House hearing room by Capitol Police.
