Democrats Just Announced the Articles of Impeachment They're Bringing Against Trump, and He's Already Rage Tweeting
PBS News Hour

House Democratic leadership unveiled on Tuesday morning the articles of impeachment they'll be bringing against President Donald Trump.

The announcement came after weeks of investigation into Trump's leveraging of crucial military aid for Ukraine in exchange for announcements of investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and the 2016 election.


Led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), leaders of the House Committees assembled to announce they'd be charging the President with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) said:

"Our president holds the ultimate public trust. When he betrays that trust and puts himself before country, he endangers the Constitution, he endangers our democracy, and he endangers our national security."

For his part, Donald Trump continued a pattern of railing against impeachment proceedings on Twitter, unleashing a stream of criticisms after the announcement, calling out Nadler and House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) by name.





But as the beginning of the end of impeachment proceedings in the House begins to take shape, there's little Trump could tweet to escape some sort of accountability.




Despite calling the impeachment inquiry a "sham" and constantly decrying the process, President Trump and the White House declined an offer to participate in the House Judiciary hearings, where White House counsel would've been permitted to ask questions of the witnesses in defense of the President.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves.
