Resolution

Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Resolved, That Donald John Trump, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors and that the following article of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:

Article of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors.
Article 1: Incitement of insurrection

The Constitution provides that the House of Representatives “shall have the sole Power of Impeachment” and that the President “shall be removed from Office on Impeachment, for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” Further, section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution prohibits any person who has “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against” the United States from “hold[ing] and office … under the United States.’ In his conduct while President of the United States – and in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, provide, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed – Donald John Trump engaged in high Crimes and Misdemeanors by inciting violence against the Government of the United States, in that:

On January 6, 2021, pursuant to the 12th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the Vice President of the United States, the House of Representatives, and the Senate met at the United States Capitol for a Joint Session of Congress to count the votes of the Electoral College.

In the months preceding the Joint Session, President Trump repeatedly issued false statements asserting that the Presidential election results were the product of widespread fraud and should not be accepted by the American people or certified by State or Federal officials.

Shortly before the Joint Session commenced, President Trump, addressed a crowd at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C. There, he reiterated false claims that “we won this election, and we won it by a landslide.” He also willfully made statements that, in context, encouraged – and foreseeably resulted in – lawless action at the Capitol, such as: “if you don’t fight like hell you’re not going to have a country any more.”

Thus incited by President Trump, members of the crowd he had addressed, in an attempt to, among other objectives, interfere with the Joint Session’s solemn constitutional duty to certify the results of the 2020 Presidential election, unlawfully breached and vandalized the Capitol, injured and killed law enforcement personnel, menaced Members of Congress, the Vice President, and Congressional personnel, and engaged in other violent, deadly, destructive and seditious acts.

resident Trump’s conduct on January 6, 2021, followed his prior efforts to subvert and obstruct the certification of the results of the 2020 Presidential election. Those prior efforts included a phone call on January 2, 2021, during which President Trump urged the secretary of state of Georgia, Brad Raffensperger, to “find” enough votes to overturn the Georgia Presidential election results and threatened Secretary Raffensperger if he failed to do so.

In all this, President Trump gravely endangered the security of the United States and its institutions of Government. He threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, and imperiled a coequal branch of Government. He thereby betrayed his trust as President, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.

Wherefore, Donald John Trump, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security, democracy, and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with self-governance and the rule of law. Donald John Trump thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.

Trump will survive it all, 20th is just around the corner.

Democrats should kukuma kill and eat Trump.

E remain prison.
That clown is going to jail
So wait, will Pence be President for a week then?

Double wahala for Trump.
He may be impeached and now MURIC has advocated for a travel ban on him in Nigeria.

I just pity him.

Next will be his trial and conviction in the senate and then ban him for life from holding any political position in the US.

He is the architect of his own disgraceful presidency.

If the United States was a black country nothing on earth, in hell and even in Heaven would have prevented TRUMP from winning the election... and i mean nothing.. Black man wey no wan leave seat not even caterpillar go fit move am. Sometimes when i think about my race tears dey comot from my eyes

This man should just resign and save himself all this disgrace. I am very sure trump reincarnated to USA from Nigeria that is why he is stubborn and with a thuggish attitude.

Dis man really cast.

See were his stubbornness have Ku him now. I Laugh in Congo

Trump finally makes history as the first US president to be impeached twice. Congratulations are in order.

He will be convicted after leaving office by the Senate , making him unable to contest for any office in the future, that is why Mitch McConnell will delay the trial.

Hmmm

Nigga is finished.

So soon, he is a gonner!

This serves him right...

The man is mannerless,moralless,irrationally outspoken

Impeachment is not removal.


Senate will have the final say. As usual, it'll be trashed.

.... Donald , Donald , Doooonallddd ! Hnnnnm! Mr. President just vacate the seat

So that we can all go back to our countries and sleep well We are just tired of your Donald Duck style wahala

wwwihy:

Convictus

Trial delay as I read if allowed will be to as requested bifurcate the confirmation process of Biden appointees

Waiting for the senate resolution.Donald Trump have done so much iberiberism.

Pls remind me how many days Trump has to stay in office, it seems the is Congress is just using president Trump to catch cruize, it may more than likely be successful this time

Hmm. Which kind wahala be this now

The fvck

Niggarr!!

Bitch ass Trump

He is getting off the white house anyways.

What a mess he made!

He's going down as the worst president the US ever had.

He will be competing with Buhari as the best "worst" president ever.

I said what I said

Interesting how covid19 and stimulus check are no longer the topic but impeachment. Even New York Governor wants to lift lockdown despite virus risk being higher than pre-election phase. Speaks volumes

It seems the only thing uniting Democrats is not their supposed love for America but their hatred for Trump. Trump should just relax and watch how they will run things when he is done by 20th of January

If it is not baba own am not interested
