Article of impeachment against President Trump is introduced by US House Democrats

House Democrats introduced an article of impeachment against Donald Trump, charging him with inciting last week’s riot and siege on the US Capitol.

Republicans in the House blocked an attempt to immediately consider a resolution asking Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Mr Trump from office as an "unfit" president.

Proceedings have been adjourned until Tuesday when a vote on the resolution is expected.

Nancy Pelosi wants ‘deranged’ Donald Trump impeached to stop him running for President again after Capitol chaos.

The House Speaker revealed she wants to press on with the unprecedented move unless Mike Pence uses the 25th Amendment to force him from office. On Monday the US House of Representatives convene and may discuss Articles of Impeachment.

They have filed one article of impeachment which states Mr Trump made statements at a rally of his supporters that "encouraged and foreseeably resulted in" last week's violence.

When you tear out a person's tongue are otherwise attempt to silence them. You are not proving them a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what they might or are saying.

What ever the outcome, a coup attempt does come with consequences.
Lives lost, damage to the republican party.
An historic day of no little infamy..
