Andrew Yang calling for Trump impeachment

Presidential candidate Andrew Yang this week came forward in support of launching impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump just one hour before House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to announce a formal impeachment inquiry.

"Given the President's latest actions I think impeachment is the right path forward," Yang tweeted on Tuesday afternoon."Asking foreign leaders for political help in return for aid and then suppressing your own agency's inquiry is egregious. There have to be limits and Congress is right to act." According to unnamed officials, Pelosi's announcement will come after a closed-door meeting with the Democratic caucus. The House Speaker has previously been hesitant in impeachment talks but in recent days has appeared to change her mind after the emergence of the whistleblower scandal.

'Not at all' taking new impeachment talk seriously: Trump'I think it's ridiculous, it's a witch hunt,' Trump says about impeachment calls amid reports on his call with Ukrainian leader. 'When you see the read out of the call, which I assume you will at some point, you'll understand. That call was perfect.' “The read out of the call”? WTF? Is Dotard speaking about a transcript? I would not trust a transcript released by this administration to be a full and truthful account of what was said. I think it is imperative that a recording of the call in its entirety be released. What’s up with Melania’s “go to hell” face. OMG. I can’t believe these two represent our country in public. Trump must go!
