Trump Impeached for Second Time

| revcom.us

 

In a major move, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to impeach Donald Trump for his role in leading last week’s attempted coup to overturn the election.

The vote took place in a building heavily protected by soldiers. Ten Republicans, including the major political figure Liz Cheney, daughter of former vice president under Bush, Dick Cheney, voted for this. Veteran Black Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Democrat of California, warned that Trump could still start a civil war. It is important, from the standpoint of the largest interests of the people, that Trump be legally and politically knocked back and held accountable for his attempted fascist coup last week. In this light, the impeachment is an important positive development and must be fought through to completion.
