Donald Trump hit with 26 articles of impeachment

President Donald Trump has been slapped with 26 new articles of impeachment by a House Democrat, accusing him of abuses of power, violations of his oath of office, and a sweeping range of other alleged misconduct.

Representative Steve Cohen, a Tennessee Democrat and senior member of the House Judiciary Committee, introduced the articles on September 24, just nine days after the House rejected a separate impeachment effort brought by Democratic Representative Al Green of Texas.

The latest effort comes as Democrats remain divided over pursuing impeachment against Trump.

First, this would be tilting at windmills. They’ll never get enough votes, and, come on, he’s out as of January 20, 2029. Second, they’ll waste so much time on this mule fritters that they’ll show the American people that they are batshit insane, and give the House and Senate back to the GOP (provided they win either one in 2026), and a good win for the GOP for the presidency. They’ll also get nothing else done, and I bet Trump simply ignores this idiocy.

Cohen’s resolution is considerably wider than Green’s. Its 26 articles encompass allegations involving Trump’s immigration policies, the use of military power, federal spending, tariffs, presidential pardons, the federal workforce, universities, law firms, the media, and alleged personal financial benefit from the presidency.

The first article accuses Trump of “undermining democracy” by sowing doubt in elections, while the second alleges an abuse of power by waging war on Iran without congressional approval. Another concerns alleged extrajudicial killings in international waters off Venezuela, while a fourth targets the deployment of military forces against U.S. cities.
