CONGRESS/DEMS/IMPEACHMENT/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “House Democrats unveiled two articles of impeachment on Tuesday [12-10-19] charging President Donald Trump with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, a historic step that will define Trump’s presidency and plunge Washington even deeper into a state of partisan polarization…Standing beside Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Nadler said Trump committed ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’ by soliciting foreign interference in the 2020 presidential election and blocking the House’s efforts to investigate the matter. In doing so, Democrats said, Trump betrayed the country and his oath of office, engaged in a ‘cover-up’ of his alleged misconduct, and ‘ignored and injured the interests of the nation.’”
