Donald J. Trump has acted as a tyrant over the government of the United States, disregarding the separation of powers, usurping powers, and failing to uphold the Constitution. Donald J. Trump has sought to intimidate and coerce, by means including the threat of unlawful prosecutions and by encouraging violence and threats of violence, the Representatives and Senators in Congress. These threats of violence include both incitement to insurrection on January 6, 2021 during his first term, and statements of violence directed at sitting members of Congress urging military members to refuse illegal orders as is required by the Law of War Manual and the UCMJ. They further include abuse of the executive branch agencies to pursue spurious investigations into members of the opposition party (1, 2). He has denied and violated the separation of powers and the Constitution’s system of checks and balances, arrogating unto himself the legislative and judicial powers, including the power of Congress to levy taxes (3), appropriate public funds (4), direct the organization of officers and agencies of the executive branch (5), and to make laws. He has sought to intimidate, coerce, and extort the officers of the several States, including those elected by the People thereof, and thereby sought to commandeer the several States, in violation of their sovereignty and the system of federalism established by the Constitution of the United States. He has repeatedly and openly stated he intends to violate the presidential term limits established by the Twenty-Second Amendment, and adopted overtly monarchical aspirations and affectations, including by invocation and endorsement of theories that he is above the law or that his personal will constitutes the law. He has shown, beyond a reasonable doubt, his continuance in office is wholly incompatible with maintaining the Constitution of the United States as the supreme law of the land. He manifests daily his hostility and betrayal toward the rule of law, the sovereignty of the People, and any limits or constraints on his own power. He has sought to replace, in purpose and effect, the sacred oath of loyalty to the Constitution with an oath of loyalty to himself personally, and to his absolute, unchecked, despotic power. In all of this, Donald J. Trump has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as President and his oath to the Constitution of the United States, and has committed the High Crime and Misdemeanor of attempting to establish himself as a lawless tyrant, to the manifest injury of the people and the security of the United States. Wherefore Donald J. Trump by such conduct, warrant impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.
