In a stunning move that could shake the foundations of American politics, Congressman Al Green of Texas has officially called for the impeachment of former President Donald Trump. During a heated session in the House of Representatives, Green announced his intention to introduce a resolution citing “high crimes and misdemeanors,” specifically accusing Trump of abusing presidential powers and undermining the Constitution.
The resolution, designated H.Res. 537, accuses Trump of violating the separation of powers by unilaterally ordering military strikes against Iran without congressional authorization, amid escalating tensions in the region. Green emphasized that Trump’s actions not only threaten American democracy but also represent a dangerous slide toward authoritarianism.
Green’s declaration comes on the heels of Trump’s controversial military actions, which included strikes on Iranian nuclear sites following an attack initiated by Israel. The Congressman argues that Trump’s failure to notify Congress or seek necessary approvals constitutes a grave abuse of power, undermining the very fabric of the U.S. government.
“This is not just about one man,” Green declared passionately. “It’s about preserving our democracy and upholding the rule of law. Trump has become a threat to our constitutional government, and we must act decisively.”
The resolution will be reviewed by the House, with immediate implications for the political landscape as calls for accountability grow louder. As tensions rise and the political climate becomes increasingly polarized, the question remains: will Congress take the necessary steps to hold Trump accountable for his actions? The clock is ticking, and the nation watches closely as this pivotal moment unfolds.
