Summary

Efforts to impeach Donald Trump for a third time are intensifying as he begins his second term.

The non-partisan group Free Speech For People launched the “Impeach Trump. Again” campaign, citing constitutional violations, including his alleged role in the January 6 Capitol riots and breaches of the emoluments clause.

The group also accuses Trump of campaign finance violations, xenophobic rhetoric, and abuse of power.

However, impeachment remains unlikely with Republicans controlling Congress. Democrats may revisit impeachment if they regain control in 2026.

    After January 6 they got several Republicans on the record for impeachment and conviction. All it did was get almost all the ones who did the right thing primaried out, all of which have been replaced by MAGA faithfuls. Those who voted against were praised for it and given more power.

      I mean, in a better world, we would have competent progressives who know how to run on an anti-fascist campaign. That we’re losing the fight is not a reason to stop fighting. It’s a reason to reevaluate our tactics and fight harder.

        There are competent progressives who know how to run on an anti-fascist campaign. The Democratic Party stands in their way.

          I’m not saying you’re wrong, because I know they exist, but they could be running the party.
