I agree with Congressman Thanedar: "Donald Trump has already done real damage to our democracy. Defying a unanimous 9-0 Supreme Court ruling has to be the final straw. It's time we impeach Donald J. Trump. The court said the wrongfully deported Kilmar Garcia must be allowed to return and receive due process. Trump ignored it. He ignored the Constitution. He ignored the very checks and balances that keep our democracy intact. This isn't an isolated incident; it's part of a dangerous, deliberate pattern. That's why today I introduced a resolution to impeach Donald J. Trump, outlining seven articles of impeachment. **Article 1:** Obstruction of justice and abuse of executive power. From denying due process to unlawful deportations, Trump defied court orders. **Article 2:** Taking away Congress's power of the purse. Trump dismantled agencies and froze funds without permission from Congress. **Article 3:** Abuse of trade powers and international aggression. He imposed damaging tariffs and threatened military invasions of our allies. **Article 4:** Violation of First Amendment rights. He has retaliated against journalists, attorneys, and critics for exercising their right to free speech. **Article 5:** Creation of an unlawful office, establishing the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and giving Elon Musk unconstitutional power over our government and personal data. **Article 6:** Bribery and corruption. He has dismissed criminal cases and solicited payments from foreign governments and coerced legal settlements for personal and political gain. **Article 7:** Tyrannical overreach. Finally, and most importantly, he is attempting to consolidate unchecked power and erode the constitutional limits of the presidency. In this country, we have presidents, not kings. That's not just misconduct; it's impeachable misconduct. This isn't leadership; it's tyranny. If we let this stand, we are saying the president is above the law, that the United States Constitution is optional. I won't be silent, and I'm calling on all my colleagues—Democrats, Republicans, and Independents—to stand up with me. Enough is enough. Donald J. Trump must be impeached."
