US House of Representatives votes to impeach Trump soon… Democratic Party “Clear Existing Threat”

-On the 13th (local time), just a week before the end of US President Donald Trump’s term, the US House of Representatives votes on an impeachment bill. The Democratic Party criticized him for raising the’obvious danger of existence’ to the state.

Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a debate that took place prior to the vote on the impeachment bill that day, “The President of the United States has instigated a civil war and armed rebellion.”

He insisted that Congress should defend the truth and the Constitution as a public guard against President Trump’s unjust actions.

The Democratic Party of the United States issued an impeachment bill on the 11th that applied the charges of “inciting civil war” to President Trump in connection with the invasion of the US Capitol by protesters supporting Trump on the 6th. The Democratic Party later launched a vote on impeachment when Vice President Mike Pence refused to invoke Article 25 of the Amendment to deprive the President of the office. The Republican Party has mixed voices of sympathy with the impeachment and concerns that pursuing the impeachment will lead to greater national division. CNN said more than six Republican MPs are expected to vote for impeachment.

Republican House Representative Kevin McCarthy said, “The president is responsible for the mob attacks on Congress. I should have condemned the mob immediately.”

However, emphasizing that now is the time to focus on integration, he said, “If you impeach the president with such a short schedule, it is a mistake. “The investigation was not completed and no hearing was held.”

President Trump made a statement through the White House today, urging him to refrain from acts of violence. US security authorities are watching the possibility of further violence resulting from the impeachment regime.

President Trump said, “There are reports that there will be more protests. Violence, illegality, and vandalism of any kind are not allowed.” “I do not support this. This is not what the United States supports. I ask all the people to help ease tensions and calm down.”

Major social network service (SNS) companies such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube have suspended President Trump’s account due to the possibility of inducing violence after the invasion of the Capitol.

The US media pointed out that President Trump was unable to respond to social media that he had been enjoying on the House’s impeachment voting day, and was sent in the absence of a strategy without an official schedule.

To impeach the US President, the House of Representatives must approve the impeachment bill by a majority of the registered members, and then the Senate must approve it with the approval of at least two-thirds of the registered members.

In the case of the House of Representatives, the Democratic Party occupies a majority of the seats, so it is expected to pass a vote on the impeachment bill. However, it is unclear whether the Senate will pass as Republicans dominate it.

President Trump faced an impeachment crisis last year. At the time, the Democratic Party raised suspicion that he had pressed the Ukrainian president to investigate the election of Biden in exchange for military aid. The impeachment bill was finally rejected in the Senate.

The Democratic Party’s next president-elect Joe Biden will take office on the 20th.
