US EditionDonald Trump Impeachment Moves Forward in Congress
- On Tuesday, Democratic Representative Shri Thanedar of Michigan took steps to compel a House vote on seven impeachment charges he filed targeting President Donald Trump.
- Thanedar filed the articles two weeks earlier, accusing Trump of corruption and abuse of power linked to his acceptance of a luxury jet from Qatar without congressional approval.
- Thanedar introduced the resolution as a privileged motion, starting a two-legislative-day window during which House Republican leaders must decide whether to bring the resolution to the floor or table it to block further action.
- Thanedar said, "It's time for us to take action" and called on colleagues to defend their oaths, while House Republicans criticized the move as a "pathetic" political stunt.
- The impeachment effort highlights sharp partisan divides and could put vulnerable Democrats at political risk as the White House defends Trump and Senate Democrats consider legislative responses.
