After a factious, two-year investigation that ultimately exonerated President Trump, Sen. Elizabeth Warren is calling for impeachment of the President based on very dubious “obstruction” allegations.
Her call seems to be a self-serving way of extending her hand to the most radical in the Democrat party as she struggles to emerge from a bloated field of presidential primary challengers in the party. Needless to say, bringing impeachment charges against Trump would be explosively divisive at a time when the nation needs to take a step back.
.@realDonaldTrump was just exonerated after TWO YEARS of Democrat lies.
Democrats’ calls for impeachment have been bogus all along, but Elizabeth Warren is proving how truly desperate they are to appeal to their radical base.

Warren claimed that Trump got 2016 election assistance from “a hostile foreign government.” Then she added, “Once elected, Donald Trump obstructed the investigation into that attack.”
The Mueller report lays out facts showing that a hostile foreign government attacked our 2016 election to help Donald Trump and Donald Trump welcomed that help. Once elected, Donald Trump obstructed the investigation into that attack.

Warren’s Twitter tirade would seem to be in contrast to the position of Democrat leaders who have tried to steer the party away from that objective. Democrat Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said that impeachment was not worthwhile at this point.” Later, after being lambasted by the far left for that statement, he indicated he could change his mind if the full, unredacted report revealed more information.
Nancy Pelosi is also on record as saying she does not feel impeaching President Trump should be a focus for her party. She said it is “just not worth it.”
Mueller put the next step in the hands of Congress: “Congress has authority to prohibit a President’s corrupt use of his authority in order to protect the integrity of the administration of justice.” The correct process for exercising that authority is impeachment.

To ignore a President’s repeated efforts to obstruct an investigation into his own disloyal behavior would inflict great and lasting damage on this country, and it would suggest that both the current and future Presidents would be free to abuse their power in similar ways.

The severity of this misconduct demands that elected officials in both parties set aside political considerations and do their constitutional duty. That means the House should initiate impeachment proceedings against the President of the United States.

Other Democrat contenders to this point have stopped short of calling for impeachment.
Warren is far from the first Democrat to call for Trump’s impeachment. Rep. Maxine Waters of California has been banging that drum for a long time … since even before his inauguration in January 2017. Newly elected Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York have also both cited Mueller’s report, alleging violations of the emoluments clause as reason to impeach.
