Trump Impeachment Articles Filed: Another Dead End?
Representative Al Green announced articles of impeachment against Donald Trump, citing Trump’s proposal to seize and develop Gaza as a cause for action. Trump’s plan, made during a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, involved resettling Gaza’s population and establishing a US presence, prompting accusations of ethnic cleansing. Green argues that such actions constitute impeachable “misdeeds,” even outside of statutory crimes, while the White House defends Trump’s proposal as an innovative approach to Middle East peace. However, given the current Republican-controlled Congress, the impeachment effort faces an uphill battle.
