House Democrats laid plans Friday for impeaching President Trump, circulating a draft of a new impeachment resolution (below) against him with one article of impeachment, "incitement of insurrection."
White House deputy press secretary Judd Deere slammed the prospect of impeachment, saying, "As President Trump said yesterday, this is a time for healing and unity as one Nation. A politically motivated impeachment against a President with 12 days remaining in his term will only serve to further divide our great country."
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her fellow Democrats are considering swift impeachment — as soon as next week — in response to the deadly siege of the U.S. Capitol by a pro-Trump mob. “We must take action," Pelosi declared on a conference call Friday.
