Democrats begin to call for Trump’s impeachment over Venezuela attack: “Many Democrats have understandably questioned whether impeachment is possible again under the current political reality,” Rep. Maxine Waters said. “I am reconsidering that view.”

It’s pointless and yet they should try and impeach him anyway. Doing nothing isn’t an option.
They should be calling for it. What are they supposed to do?
They are now threatening Greenland…
WTF did you get us into MAGA????
Of course they should! It doesn’t matter if it’s an empty gesture as the point is to constantly push back! People want politicians that will fight every battle whether they win or lose.
Like the video telling the military not to follow illegal orders, It did reach people even if it wasn’t obvious. They should be doing things like that every week.
Democrats’ calls for Trump’s impeachment over the Venezuela strike raise legitimate constitutional concerns, but it’s largely symbolic without a House majority and 2/3 Senate support. The bigger issue is that unchecked executive military action sets a concerning precedent for future presidents.
Look, 2025 is in the past now. It’s headed to the history books and we can see what the Democratic “resistance” in Congress looked like with 20/20 hindsight.
Are people seriously arguing that a legacy of “they tried and failed to impeach Trump 50 times while he was doing all those crimes” would look *worse than what actually happened in 2025*? Seriously?
People keep saying to keep the powder dry and they kept the powder dry all last year. To what end?
There are now dozens if not hundreds of things he’s done that merit impeachment.
it’s all performative bullshit. The USA hasn’t a spine to stand up to actual evil.
EIGHTY-SEVEN YEAR OLD Maxine Waters. Wtf are we doing?
Since the US invaded and extracted the leader over claims that have yet to be proven, with the support of part of the population invaded, why dont another country do the and towards the US?
Maxine Waters is still selling the same impotent bs she’s always peddled.
We need a new breed who doesn’t assume defeat.
There is not a political process that fixes this. Only when the people force those who support to faces social consequences can this be fixed.
The point is to model behavior that pushes back on this corrupt dictatorship. Will you always succeed? No. Does that mean you should do nothing? No. Try to impeach, try to take a stand. Slow things down, and most importantly LEAD your party.
I’m sure that they’ll get right on that before Trump invades Greenland or Canada or bombs Mexico, not afterwards…
At least fucking try! jfc
Be went on live TV and reportedly confessed that he knowingly and willingly violated The War Poowers Act by not advising Congress in advance.
If violating The War Powers Act isn’t a big crime or misdemeanor, then nothing is.
I support trying to impeach him over this. Its a very clear cut example of showing the people where the chips stand in terms of their reps.
It’ll take a bit of political capital, but its worth it in this situation.
Current congressional democrats are insufferable.
Democratic politicians will always talk like this. Their brains are warped by faith in the rule of law. If bombs dropped here tomorrow they’d tell us they are considering and questioning this or that as everything burned around them.
Trump and everyone involved need to be impeached, convicted, and throw in a fucking cell. Bring back law and order! The GOP deepstate committing so many crimes foreign and domestic.
Start proceedings on him and every fucking cabinet member. They’ve all done many impeachable things.
Along with impeachment, file a repeal of the Hague Invasion Act….
The only reason the Senate failed to convict for the second impeachment was Trump had already left office at that time. The evidence proved he fraudulently attempted to overturn the election and conspired to have a mob interrupt the peaceful transfer of power.
He’s in office now and there’s even more evidence of his guilt.
He’s renewed his comments on wanting to annex Greenland.. what’s next? Us in Canada? Removing the Columbian or Mexican leaders?
ALL AMERICANS SHOULD WANT THIS WHOLE ADMINISTRATION REMOVED!
Cool. How about a congressional censure.
Why ask if it’s possible? Just hold the vote and let the names be on record for who supports it and who doesn’t.
Yes they should impeach him, but the smart strategy would be to wait until Jeffries becomes speaker and impeach Vance for hiding Trump’s dementia among the rest of the illegal things they have done.. Trump needs house and senate approval for a new VP, won’t happen. Natural Causes does its thing and Jeffries becomes President and we can start getting out of this nightmare.
Mist republicans will not back thr democrats because their to scared to lose any power and money. Same reason the are protecting the pedophiles.
We have like a thousand reasons before this. Impeachment grounds are everywhere They didn’t need this latest thing.
Those articles of impeachment should be written and rewritten and resubmitted everyday. Should’ve been since day one, confidence in this administration has never been there and democrats only now “thinking” about it is embarrassing.
All in!
Countries are not allowed to invade other countries for no good reason. This is clearly an impeachable offense. He should be impeached.
Republicans have the power to end this
No consequences will ever happen to Trump as long as the GOP remains in control of the government.
Remember a few weeks ago when it got leaked that not only is trump a child rapist but is also heavily implicated in murdering and disposing of an infant in the lake? Remember how everyone was *absolutely certain* that Trump couldn’t possibly escape that, that nobody was going to forget it? How Trump was TOTALLY done for that time?
Yeah seemed nice didn’t it.
The ‘political reality’ they’re referring to is a self-fulfilling prophecy that they’ve helped to create and maintain. How about let’s substitute a reality in which you meant it when you swore an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution.
They need to do it still.
Dems have been apathetic at best. Would love to see them actually do something.
