READ: Dems Release Laughable Article Of Impeachment For ‘Inciting Violence’
House Democrats have released articles of impeachment against President Trump for inciting an insurrection.
The 4-page resolution is virtually the same as a draft version released last Friday but now includes an explicit reference to section three of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Another development is the addition of linking the Capitol attack to “President Trump repeatedly issu[ing] false statements asserting that the Presidential election results were the product of widespread fraud and should not be accepted by the American people or certified by State or Federal officials” in the “months preceding” January 6th.
The January 11th articles allege President Trump “engaged in high Crimes and Misdemeanors by inciting violence against the Government of the United States” – a claim debunked by the fact that President Trump’s speech concluded over 30 minutes after troublemakers arrived at the Capitol.
What’s more, President Trump’s speech never called for physical violence, instead encouraging protestors to “peacefully and patriotically make their voices heard” by “cheer[ing] on our brave Senators and Congressmen and women.” In contrast, Democrats and media elites have called for – and even joined – AntiFa and Black Lives Matter protests that have resulted in the deaths of countless innocent Americans.
The authors of the impeachment articles are Democrats David Cicilline, Ted Lieu, Jamie Raskin, and Jerry Nadler and describe President Trump as a “threat to national security, democracy, and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office.”
