Democrats expected to unveil two articles of impeachment against Trump
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives were expected to unveil two articles of impeachment against Republican President Donald Trump on Tuesday, a senior Democratic aide said, setting the stage for a possible vote this week on impeachment.

The House aide spoke on condition of anonymity on Monday night and declined to give any details.

Democrats were expected to draft articles of impeachment on abuse of power and on obstruction of Congress, the aide told Reuters. The Washington Post first reported the expected articles, citing three unidentified officials.

#1 Democrats expected to unveil two articles of impeachment against Trump the dissolution of the republic

When one party (uniparty) no longer can tolerate the possibility of another party having power in a political system, that is what basically they do.

#2 Democrats expected to unveil two articles of impeachment against Trump

"(1) We don't like him personally. (2) We hate people who voted for him."?

#3  abuse of power and on obstruction of Congress

Both of which can be argued without material facts, that's the point

#4 "Quid Pro Quid" nowhere to be found, even after they spent the first couple of weeks pretending to argue that. I'm amazed that they really believe they're going to get away with this.

#5 Obstruction of Congress, you say? Point of Information: the USA is a Bicameral Constitutional Republic and not a Parliamentary Democracy where the Speaker of the House Queen Pelosi rules.

#6 admission that Obstruction of Congress is NOT Obstruction of Justice, just as Schiff's and Nadless' hearings had very little to do with actual Justice

#7 OK. They did it. But too late. I can't read it. I'm burned out, people. I can't listen to Schiff, Nadler or Pelosi anymore because I just can't take any more bullshit. All they ever do is lie and it stinks too bad. They're gonna do what they're gonna do anyway and I'm gonna contribute more money to the Trump 2020 campaign.

#8 One of the most egregious lies is their assertion that Trump endangered our national security by withholding aid to Ukraine. No way in hell is our national security endangered by an uprising of ethnic Russians in Ukraine's Donbass province. Nobody believes that but they keep repeating it with straight faces. That's how you know the whole thing is a lie and I just can't take it anymore. I can't watch it on TV, I can't read about on the Internet, I just want it to stop. Stop the lies, stop this whole thing and let's have our election.

#9 Abu, I tuned them out long ago. Media cold, or at least chilled, turkey. No cable. Only rarely do I look at NYT. No NPR.

But I do vote.

Nov-2020 will be here before you know it. GOTV.

#11 Do the Pubs have enough spine to resist the coup attempt by traitors in the house? I really do not know. After all, when the Pubs had house and senate they did not do jack sh*t. Washington DC is populated by metastasized cancer cells that have set up shop in every part of "our" so-called government.
