News Center Maine - Tennessee Congressman Steve Cohen has reportedly introduced more than two dozen articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. Cohen introduced 26 articles of impeachment against Trump Thursday, Sept. 24.
"Trump is clearly the most impeachable President our country has ever endured. His continued presence in office is a danger to our democracy. That the sycophantic Republican majority in Congress is derelict in its duty does not mean that I must abandon my responsibilities," Cohen said in a statement.
The articles accuse Trump of abuse of power, violation of oath, disregard of courts, attacks on a free press, unlawful taxation, and abolishment of a congressionally mandated agency. "I took an independent oath to support and defend the Constitution. That commitment compels me to introduce this resolution today," Cohen said. "When historians write about this period, and our constituents ask who stood up to President Trump's lawlessness, this resolution is the answer."
