[riversedge]

I agree with the article--it has no chance of passing the House--but hope it will bring more attention the White House corruption!! by Trump and his Cabinet--and anyone involved in keeping him of the Oval Office!!
November is LONG way off--but Dems need to keep the pressure on the corruption!!

House Democrats will introduce five articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Wednesday accusing him of abuse of power, war crimes and other serious wrongdoing.

......................

With his longstanding scandals and now the conflict with Iran, Hegseth is a prime candidate to become the party's latest boogeyman.



.....................


It is being introduced by Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.), the president of House Democrats' freshman class and the first Iranian-American Democrat elected to Congress.

It has eight Democratic co-sponsors: Reps. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.), Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), Nikema Williams (D-Ga.), Dina Titus (D-Nev.), David Min (D-Calif.), Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.), Brittany Pettersen (D-Colo.) and Sarah McBride (D-Del.).

It is also supported by several progressive and anti-war groups, including MoveOn, Indivisible and the Center for International Policy...............

1. Again: we just found out Swalwell's activities were an open secret for years. You can't tell

me there aren't a dozen republicans in the same boat.

NOW is the time to twist those republicans' arms, Michael Corleone-style, to make them vote with us.

2. I'd rather they worked on health care,...

...getting Social Security fully funded after 2033, what to do about AI to make sure we all benefit from it, etc.

(I'll bet the truth is that many of our reps are actually doing that, but it never makes it into the media.)
