Originally published at: IT BEGINS: Sen. Warren Becomes First Presidential Candidate to Call for Trump’s Impeachment | Sean Hannity
Massachusetts Senator and potential 2020 Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren became the first presidential candidate to call for President Trump’s impeachment over the weekend; saying the House of Representatives “must initiate proceedings.”
“The Mueller report lays out facts showing that a hostile foreign government attacked our 2016 election to help Donald Trump and Donald Trump welcomed that help. Once elected, Donald Trump obstructed the investigation into that attack,” tweeted Warren.
“The severity of this misconduct demands that elected officials in both parties set aside political considerations and do their constitutional duty. That means the House should initiate impeachment proceedings against the President of the United States,” she added.
To ignore a President’s repeated efforts to obstruct an investigation into his own disloyal behavior would inflict great and lasting damage on this country, and it would suggest that both the current and future Presidents would be free to abuse their power in similar ways.
