Democrats in the United States House of Representatives
introduced an article of impeachment against President Donald Trump on Monday.
The American leader, in his final days in office, is being
accused of sedition.
“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”, the charge partly read.
Last Wednesday, Trump’s supporters attacked the Capitol Building after his “never to concede” vow.
Democrats also introduced a resolution urging Vice President
Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and strip Trump of his powers.
Republicans’ rejection of the bill set the stage for a vote
on Tuesday.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi condemned their decision.
Pelosi accused them of enabling the president’s unhinged,
unstable, and deranged acts.
“Their complicity endangers America, erodes our Democracy,
and it must end”, her statement read.
The House impeached Trump in December 2019 by 230 to 197
votes.
