Democratic U.S. Reps from Texas call for impeachment
The day after Trumps campaign manager was found guilty on eight counts of tax and bank fraud charges and Trumps lawyer pleaded guilty to eight criminal counts, which implicated Trump in criminal activity, Texas Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives are calling for the impeachment of the president.
Here are Tweets from some Texas Democratic representatives:
Rep. Al Green, D-Houston: Where there is a will, there is a way. The framers of the Constitution provided impeachment as the way to remove an unfit President. The ultimate question is, does Congress have the will? #CountdownToImpeachment #ImpeachmentIsNotDead
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Houston: #OTD @POTUSs personal lawyer and campaign chair pleaded and/or were found guilty of crimes bearing on his fitness to be President of U.S. and Leader of Free World. @realDonaldTrump must explain his acts to American people.
Rep. Filemon Vela, D-Brownsville: After todays guilty verdict in the @PaulManafort trial and @MichaelCohen212s plea deal, time is up. We must impeach crooked Donnie. @realDonaldTrump @POTUS
Rep. Lloyd Doggett: D-Austin: I again urge GOP colleagues to stand w/ our country. Yes, Putin did all he could to elect Trump, but he doesnt care about political parties. He only seeks to divide & corrupt our trust of one another. What Putin opposes is the democracy we hold so dear.
