Impeach President Trump for Unconstitutional Election Takeover Attempt

I am writing to demand immediate impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump under Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution for his recent call to "nationalize the voting" in at least 15 locations across the country. This statement, made during an appearance on Dan Bongino's podcast on Monday, February 3, 2025, represents a direct assault on our constitutional system and an attempt to rig the 2026 midterm elections. The Constitution explicitly confers authority over elections to the states, not the federal government. Trump provided no legal mechanism for how nationalizing elections would be possible because none exists within our constitutional framework. This is not his first attempt to seize control over voting. Last year, he signed an executive order imposing sweeping restrictions on voting rights, including directing states to require proof of citizenship for voter registration and blocking states from accepting ballots after election day. A federal judge blocked that effort, ruling it was a "violation of the separation of powers." Trump's pattern of authoritarian behavior extends beyond rhetoric. The FBI recently seized hundreds of boxes of 2020 ballots from Fulton County, Georgia, with Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard present at the scene. Georgia's Democratic lawmakers, including Senator Raphael Warnock and Representatives Lucy McBath and Nikema Williams, have demanded answers about whether this represents legitimate investigation or political intimidation. Trump continues to make baseless claims about the 2020 election and undocumented immigrants voting illegally, despite no evidence supporting these assertions. This is not normal political disagreement. This is a sitting president openly advocating for federal takeover of state election systems while his administration conducts raids on election records from jurisdictions that did not support him. Article II, Section 4 provides for removal of the president for high crimes and misdemeanors. Attempting to subvert the constitutional authority of states over their own elections and threatening the integrity of the 2026 midterms meets this threshold. I urge you to initiate impeachment proceedings immediately, vote to impeach, and work to secure conviction and removal in the Senate. Our democracy cannot survive a president who openly seeks to dismantle its foundational structures.
