“The facts are uncontested. The president abused his power for his own personal political benefit.” Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced she is asking House committees to move to impeach President Trump.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Thursday that she is asking House committees to move to impeach President Trump, taking a major step toward making him just the third president in American history to face that sanction.

One major issue Democrats must still resolve is whether to include anything related to Robert S. Mueller III‘s investigation in the impeachment articles. Some Democrats have balked at that, wanting to keep the impeachment focused entirely on Ukraine, while others have said the House must respond to the president’s attempt to have Mueller removed from his role as special counsel leading the probe into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.

Republicans pushed for Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam B. Schiff to present the committee’s report personally — providing them a chance to grill a lawmaker they have heaped blame upon for the investigation — but Democrats rejected that demand., members of the Judiciary Committee focused on three areas that could form the basis of articles of impeachment:

At Wednesday’s Judiciary Committee hearing, three legal scholars testified that Trump’s actions provided grounds for impeachment. A fourth expert, chosen by Republicans, said the House was moving too quickly and had not proved its case. Republicans have repeatedly denounced the Democratic-led proceedings as a “sham” and “a simple railroad job.”

Pelosi then stepped back to the microphone and said Trump is a coward for not doing more on gun control, but said such policy fights are for voters to weigh in the next election and have “nothing to do” with the impeachment.

Where is the crime? This is a set-up by The Dems based on hatred. Dems want control n power at any cost that they will hang this Pres in the halls of Congress as a message to all voters. . . . Vote the way we tell you to vote. We will be under a dem dictatorship.

What facts? 🤣

Nancy is abusing her power. She is a liar and a fraud. She needs to be removed from power!

No facts like no evidence.

you mean the UNFOUNDED FACTS, that the president abused his power for his own personal political benefit? guess you forgot nancy, we the ppl,have been watching the Salem witch trial, so please explain how it is that hearsay & unfounded facts calls for impeachment?

Yup case closed... u r gone

Nancy needs to retire 💯🤷🏽‍♂️

There are no facts. How can they be uncontested. This is a partisan joke.

Yawn

GOP has failed to produce a single fact witness to contradict sworn testimony, including first-hand testimony from a Trump donor and political appointee.

Wondering if the impeachment business is causing Nancy some mental stability issues?

Political Crap. We the public at large see this as drama played by crooked politicians. I hope for an other large scale Civil War at home to settle disputes for a while till we are ready for an other one. America is a divided nation.

I wonder what Trump promised Pelosi for her to basically guarantee his re-election.

Invisible facts cannot he contested, you got it right.

So if Biden wasn’t running this wouldn’t be an issue then, right?

This whole impeachment is a sham They’ve being spying on their political opponents this whole time They know they are gonna lose again in 2020 😎

why,when she knowingly failed to impeach VP Biden abuse of power for personal gain(video proof)!If she had fulfilled her oath then,the Amer. ppl would not be having to go through this sham.But then dem's would not have any excuses for not focusing on the Ameri.ppl's needs&protec.

THE FACTS: - No quid pro quo - No wrongdoing in transcript - No testimony from whistleblower - No corroboration from witnesses - No first-hand accounts of lawbreaking - No evidence of bribery - No Biden probe by Ukraine In other words, Democrats are partisan?

'Judgment Day' has arrived for realDonaldTrump - a Constitutional Crises: a story about Donald J. Trump who rose to power and fell.

LATimes KNOWS FOR A FACT the impeachment facts are contested, yet they bolster Pelosi’s lies like the good little Democrat lap dogs they are. LATimes propaganda for Democrats should be billed as a campaign contribution, because it sure as hell isn’t news they report

dems4equality What is the plan when it backfires ?

Invoking the Catholic Church? They’re more corrupt and shady than trump 😂

She defended herself as being a Catholic. The Catholic Church is very against murder and abortion. She is Catholic only in her mind. She has abetted the murder of hundreds of thousands of babies.

RadicalLeft poised to overthrow duly elected President, THEN Republic, THEN enslave masses to socialism. DestroyedFromWithin as Khrushchev predicted 60 yrs ago.

Nancy Pelosi says House will move forward with articles of impeachment against TrumpPelosi said 'the president leaves us with no choice but to act,' decrying his actions as 'in defiance of our founders.' This will spell the end of Biden's candidacy given that his son will be in front of the Senate trying to explain how he was a model citizen and his dad didn't know what he (Hunter) was doing. No Biden in the race will actually benefit the Democrats. Mrs Pelosi, do you know anything about the Constitution? If you did you would know that Congress, in it's current incarnation, is in defiance of our founders. Your ignorance and hypocrisy both amaze and frighten me.

I'm not sure what she's been watching, but we've seen almost no actual facts, just hearsay! My today's mood: Im-🍑 2 Kings 9:30-37 - and understand that the spirit behind who motivates humans in a haughty Jazebel manner has no great love for any human it motivates - and the end of it for the human is always much worse than the beginning. And no person controls that.
