Trump Faces New Impeachment Calls After Election Speech

Following President Trump’s prime-time address alleging foreign interference in past and future elections, Senator Ed Markey called for Trump’s impeachment, citing the subversion of free and fair elections. Markey urged civic action if ICE agents were deployed to polling sites. Other Democrats echoed Markey’s sentiments, refuting Trump’s claims of widespread fraud and lack of evidence. Despite two existing impeachment resolutions in the House, any new effort faces significant obstacles in a Republican-controlled chamber, with similar previous impeachment attempts failing in the Senate.

Impeach Justices for Birthright Citizenship Ruling and Corruption

The idea that four Supreme Court justices should face impeachment over the issue of birthright citizenship is a deeply contentious one, rooted in a strong interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. At the heart of this argument is the belief that the Constitution unequivocally states, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.” The very notion that the Court might have been a single vote away from overturning such a fundamental right, a right seemingly guaranteed by the nation’s highest law, is seen as profoundly alarming by proponents of impeachment.… Continue reading

Americans Demand Trump’s Impeachment and Justice

Despite a majority of Americans supporting the impeachment of Donald Trump, Democratic congressional leaders remain committed to a poll-tested, “popularist” doctrine that prioritizes perceived electability over bold policy. This strategy, characterized by a reluctance to pursue controversial but potentially popular initiatives, has led to political incoherence and a failure to capitalize on opportunities. Recent polls indicate that public support for Trump’s impeachment is substantial and growing, even without a concrete push from Congress, suggesting a missed political opening. Democratic leaders, however, dismiss impeachment as a distraction from “kitchen-table issues” and a motivator for the MAGA base, a perception the article argues is a misreading of political dynamics.

Wilbur Ross Warns Trump Impeachment Likely After Midterms

Former Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross has warned that the upcoming midterm elections carry “extremely high” stakes for the president, asserting that Democrats winning the House would lead to impeachment proceedings. He further noted that control of the Senate would likely result in a successful conviction.

Beyond Impeachment: Calls for Prosecution and Removal of Trump and Allies

The Beltway’s current debate over alleged Democratic socialism is largely a distraction, echoing past anxieties when new generations of politicians emerged with different ideas. While internal party disagreements exist, Democrats are united against the existential threat posed by Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Rather than focusing on primary wins, the paramount task for Democrats is to prepare the nation for necessary reforms by exposing the current administration’s corruption and abuse of power through tools like impeachment. This process, though unlikely to remove Trump, is crucial for publicly airing the truth and morally indicting complicity before the next election.

Maine Progressive Renews Call to Remove Conservative Supreme Court Justices

Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner is advocating for the impeachment and removal of conservative Supreme Court justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. Platner echoes progressive calls, including those from Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who argues the justices’ alleged conflicts of interest and failure to recuse themselves constitute a crisis threatening the rule of law. While the justices deny wrongdoing and Thomas maintains he followed guidance on disclosures, Platner asserts there are compelling reasons for their expulsion from the nation’s highest court.

Trump’s Iran War Would Be Obama’s Impeachment

A recent New York Times poll revealed internal Democratic sentiment, indicating a desire by a majority of Democrats for the party to nominate a centrist in 2028, with a significant portion believing the party should moderate its stance on immigration and crime. Despite these divisions, there is widespread agreement that the current political and economic system requires substantial change, with over 80 percent of Democrats viewing it as fundamentally flawed or unfair. Notably, a critical question highlighted a division on economic policy: respondents favored a candidate promising to lower prices by addressing corporate monopolies over one proposing to do so through increased housing construction and energy production.

Judge Protects ‘8647’ Flag Flyers as DOJ Fails to Oppose Ruling

A federal judge has expanded an order blocking the Trump administration from revoking permits for protesters displaying “8647” flags and signs near the National Mall. U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss extended a temporary restraining order and ruled that variations of the “8647” flag, which now include phrases like “IMPEACH TRUMP,” are not reasonably construed as calls for violence. Instead, the judge found these displays advocate for President Trump’s impeachment and removal from office, reinforcing his prior conclusion that the administration cannot credibly claim the flags threaten the President’s life given the protesters’ repeated disavowals of violence. The court emphasized that context is crucial, and these new displays, like the original flag, constitute core political speech.
