This Little Piggy Went To Market!

Trump is trying to dismiss the impeachment trial. The House now passes the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate.
In the words of the current House Speaker of the United States.



It's a permanent stain on the disgraceful legacy of Donald John Trump.

This also harmed the first phase of the U.S.-China Trade deal that Trump signed with the Chinese government. A deal that is controversial because Trump ignated a trade war with China that forced the price of goods to rise. This deal is still in the works but a small achievement despite the impeachment trial.

The Articles of Impeachment are heading to the U.S. Senate.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) held off giving the Articles of Impeachment to the "Grim Ripper" Mitch McConnell (R-KY) after he made the appearance on that annoying shithead Sean "Softball" Hannity's program.

McConnell signaled that he will quickly conduct a trial and not convict the 45th President of The United States.

However the bombshell revelations from indicted Ukrainian business executive Lav Parnas will certainly draw more scrutiny towards Trump and his allies.

The House passed the Articles of Impeachment in December on a party line vote. Two Democrats voted against it and Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) voted present. The Democrat who voted against it was Rep. Jeff Van Drew who later switched parties to join the Republican caucus. The only Republican who joined the Democrats was Rep. Justin Amash who left the party to become an independent.

Today, the House passed a resolution to send the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate. With two Democrats voting against it and Gabbard voting present. Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME) and Rep. Collin Peterson (D-MN) voted against the resolution. The Republicans with Van Drew in their party voted against the resolution.

Now today, the Speaker, the Sergeant of Arms and three of the appointed impeachment managers will deliver them to the U.S. Senate.
Pelosi names the impeachment managers who will oversee the trial of the 45th President of the United States.
Pelosi hired a diverse team of House Democrats who have law enforcement and legal knowledge of political corruption.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Rep. Val Demings (D-FL), Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-TX), Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO), Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) will be the impeachment managers. They will be the prosecutors in the trial of President Donald J. Trump.

Article 1 of the House resolution alleges the president abused his powers because he used his position to solicit foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election.

Article 2 outlines the president obstructs Congress by blocking administration officials from providing testimony or documents.

Trump calls the impeachment a "con job."


Regardless of what he says, he is marked in American history as a president impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Republicans control the majority in the Senate, and they're expected to vote to acquit Trump on both charges, permitting him to keep his office at the conclusion of the trial.
