Axios

House Democrats have a caucus call at noon to discuss that very topic. Assistant House Speaker Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) told CNN that Democrats could bring articles of impeachment to the House floor as soon as "mid-next week" if Cabinet members do not invoke the 25th Amendment.

Why?

I don't understand what this changes? The Senate is not going to reconvene to hold a hearing.

The 25th Amendment deals with the President unable to perform his duties, not that you don't like how he is doing is duties.

Bring any impeachment you want, it serves no real purpose.

High level desperation, makes me wonder why.

They have nothing better to do. He’ll be out in 2 weeks for crying out loud.

They may try to convict him in the Senate after he leaves office. Not sure what that would mean.

No, the question is why are they doing it?

Quick interjection: Does active impeachment hearings do anything to his ability to declass material?” Just a thought .

2022 is a lifetime in politics. I don't see how that will matter much by then.

The 25th should be used on her!

She lied for 4 years...knowing it was lies, on countless investigations.

She has incited violence/riots/uprisings/intimidation during her press conferences and tweets.

Now she thinks she as some moral high ground.

Wants to invoke the 25th or impeachment...oh and remove the access from Nuclear codes of the POTUS, with less than 2 weeks before he is removed from office.

That's the speaker of the House, folks

It's not about Trump. It's about laying down the gauntlet for any other outsider that is thinking about getting into the ring to upset swamp goings on. These assholes know that if Trump had been a little smarter, a lot more strategic, and a better leader - he would have had a legit chance at truly fricking up their world, and they don't want a more capable Trump-type coming along anytime soon.

The fact any of y'all think GOP will win purple seats again in senate is laughable. The Dems have it in the bag from here on out with mail in voting.

Why?


I read somewhere that he could not issue pardons or sign Executive Orders if there are articles of impeachment against him. They don't have time to have a trial and do a full impeachment, so I guess they are just stripping all of his power away for the next 12 days.
