Rep. Justin Amash, a Michigan independent who left the Republican Party this summer after he backed formal impeachment proceedings, said he would back three articles of impeachment: obstruction of Congress, obstruction of justice and abuse of power

Amash, a Michigan independent who left the Republican Party this summer after he backed formal impeachment proceedings, told CNN on Friday he would back three articles of impeachment: obstruction of Congress, obstruction of justice and abuse of power. He cautioned though he would wait to see the final language before ultimately committing to vote for them."I think there's sufficient evidence for all three," Amash said Friday on his way to the House floor.

One Republican who had kept the option open, Francis Rooney of Florida, told CNN that he's concerned there's been"a rush to judgment" by Democrats, criticizing them for not going to court to seek testimony from first-hand witnesses who've been blocked by the White House.

Hey

Loser

Thank you for believing for the Rule of Law! I hope others will do too.

Can we speed up this process? The fabric of our nation is wearing thin right now and it is reverberating around the world. Someone will rise to fill the void and history shows it usually isn’t an a good person.

Of course he will because he has investments in China and he doesn’t like that Trump is standing up to China. Nothing like Americans raping us along with China!

You forgot to describe him as a total idiot too

Thank you justinamash we need more like you

I would be in overwhelming favor with Michigan removing Rep. Justin Amash from office for failure to provide what he promised Michigan voters if they would vote for him. In short…HE LIED to his electorate.

It incases all, he is right, but, sub incase every grievence inside those he mentions. Emoluments grievences would be mention for example inside abuse of power

Thank you justinamash for having the courage to do the right thing. You’re the meaning of integrity.

Men like him achieve less in life and so trying to make himself relevant on the news hence this stupid statement on the so-called hoax of an impeachment which makes no sense to anyone with good conscience

rogertansey justinamash is the only uncompromised patriot in the GOP The rest of the gop is funded in rubles. And held in check by kompromat. Fact.

He must resign immediately, because he is traitor . People most time vote for party, not personality. Every elected official must resign if they changed party

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍👍👍👍👍

justinamash is a POS , now if we can get him to leave the state of Michigan that would great!! He could move to California , he will fit in with other twatwaffles there.

Report on the 3 Democrats who have decided to vote against the impeachment articles...

They all should impeach trump. It’s all about the constitution and trump try’s to destroy every day. Dump trump in 2020

Because he’s fucking smart. Unlike the GOP

Question what did Trump do? Win?

This guy is a joke! He was elected to represent a group of people not his own ideas. He got elected saying one thing then did a 180 that should be an offense of which he can be removed

Does justinamash think DACA is an impeachable offense or Fast and Furious when President Obama used Privilege to prevent Holder from testifying?

Good luck in the senate! Lol

RogenaLSpokane He has proven that he is a patriot. Democrats should not challenge him in 2020; unless we feel that the GOP's candidate has a chance against him.

To justinamash, integrity and belief in the Constitution trumps anyone who’s President. We need more people like him in Congress. His constituents should be very proud of their Representative.

a bitter cast off

This guy is a cuck

GOOD FOR YOU AND MANY PROPS FOR HAVING A PAIR

justinamash is a Great guy with spine !! I adore him with all sincerity and I wish him God’s blessings !!!

Making it bipartisan.

🤔😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴

VibinWoosh If Amash is reelected in 2020 it will be a bellwether moment for sensible GOP members who aren't already retiring to 'spend more time with family.' His district is DeVos/Van Andel country.

One of the few-most just announce they are stepping down at the end of their term instead of standing up for Constitution and Country🇺🇸

FYI::: it behooves CNN- to have trump in the White House one more term simply for ratings..... lol 😂... think about that for a second

Wait a non republican will back he impeachment of trump😂

Thank you Representative. If I lived in Michigan I would be proud to vote for you!

Yes!! This Please SpeakerPelosi

Yes

Why is this news since he said months ago that he wanted trump out

Patriot

Thank you.

justinamash you might want to watch the ImpeachmentHearings and the SchiffShow pretty sure he was a RINORepublican

Thank you for upholding the Constitution.

And no cares because he left.

I don’t understand why they have not subpoenaed the recording of the phone calls. That’ll end everything

Well it’s putting farmers out of business and all the so called government aid to farmers is going to large corporate farms, not the ones that have been owned for generations by families.

True values. It takes guts.

Too bad nothing will happen! NOTHING. Trump will be elected again, and it will just get worse in his next term since he will have nothing to lose!

Of course he will.

Thank you

Haha no amash's bias and hatred of trump exposes him

KTLA He was voted as Republican but changed his party after voted to the office. He betrayed those who voted him under that party. Republicans should recall him and have him run as Independent. Let’s see if he wins.

No. One. Cares.

PattyArquette And then he voted against restoring the voting rights act. Spare me his awakening conscious act.

There you have it, the impeachment is officially bi-partisan

That is a brave man.

I approve a politician who can think for himself, outside the herd mentality. Go Justin Go!

How does it matter...

cnn = Fake News

Sick man

Really don't care about what he thinks. Looking forward to Monday!!

Shazam ⚡️

PattyArquette Justin Amash is likely to be the sole Republican left standing after the Trump swamp swirls down the drain. Maybe he will be the person to lead the Herculean task of rebuilding the GOP from the dusty rubble left behind.

Impeachment is DOA. Face it. It’s a partisan hit job.

F*CK CNN PROPAGANDA!!

RepPaulMitchell

Anything to keep your families companies in China going ! Amash still screwing taxpayers over ?

Trump wins a second term, you heard it here first

Yea

justinamash He didn't leave the GOP.. The GOP left him.. Thanks for having a spine, sir.

I'll be waiting for all of you at home. I'll even make cookies.

His career is over....

I'm a life-long Independent who will Never vote for another Democrat after watching the impeachment disgrace. Is one of us more important Nope, we are both just one vote!

Found his humanity?

That is a man who deserves major respect. All his friends in congress who still lie through their teeth when they are more than aware of the truth, shameful.

He's trying to make some type of name for himself, but will end up losing his seat for being a lapdog for the DemocraticFourthReich

Turncoat

He’s toast in 2020 so who the hell cares

Another haters
