Nancy Pelosi Announces House Democrats Are Moving Forward to Impeach President Trump
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced this afternoon that the House of Representatives plans to move forward with articles of impeachment against President Trump.
After speaking in great detail about herself, her past experience on the Intelligence Committee, and American history in general, Pelosi announced that she believes that the President has breached the Constitution. Pelosi stated, “today I am announcing that the House of Representatives is moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry. The President must be held accountable. No one is above the law.”

As the Speaker exited the stage, a reporter was heard asking the question, “never before has a President been convicted by the Senate. What does this accomplish if the Senate doesn’t convict?” Pelosi walked off the stage without answering the question.
Many prominent liberal politicians and celebrities immediately took to social media to celebrate the announcement. Read the tweets below of “Squad” member Ayanna Pressley, Kathy Griffin, Morning Joe’s Mika Brzezinski, and Rosie O’Donnell.
