Donald Trump hit with 26 articles of impeachment

President Donald Trump has been slapped with 26 new articles of impeachment by a House Democrat, accusing him of abuses of power, violations of his oath of office, and a sweeping range of other alleged misconduct.

Representative Steve Cohen, a Tennessee Democrat and senior member of the House Judiciary Committee, introduced the articles on September 24, just nine days after the House rejected a separate impeachment effort brought by Democratic Representative Al Green of Texas.

The latest effort comes as Democrats remain divided over pursuing impeachment against Trump.

Green’s resolution was shelved by the House in a 232-147 vote on September 15, with 18 Democrats joining nearly all Republicans in voting to table it and another 47 lawmakers voting present. Those voting present included House Democratic leaders Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark and Pete Aguilar.

3. Can't hurt, really, even though it won't even get out of committee
Sadly the msm will barely cover this given that as well as their usual right-wing bias.

But it does allow us to say republicans are *still* covering for him even though the first half of his second term has been a ridiculously corrupt disaster.

That said, we need to tie Republicans, especially those in vulnerable seats, to Donnie. Show how each one is aiding and abetting this criminal evil and incompetence

Because even the media (and some Democratic Party lawmakers) recognize that this is a symbolic measure, the author of which basically just spams a bunch of "impeachable offenses" they think the President committed.

"Right-wing bias"? From which did this come? Or was it from unblock's ?

Game on. I DDG-searched "Impeachment articles against trump" and there was coverage from:

* NewSpeak;
* USA Today;
* Mount Olive Chronicle on MSN;
* WREG on MSN;
* WATN on MSN.

Changing the search phrase to "cohen Impeachment articles against trump" found:

* ABC24 on Yahoo! News;
* The Free Press, Tampa, FL;
* Tennessee Star;
* NY Sun.

Not the ubiquitous screaming full-page banner headlines unblock believes there should be - "our media" - but two major national-level skews outlets and two major national-level news aggregators is far from token coverage. Given that this is over-the-weekend coverage, more major outlets might jump in. It is possible, though, that even the Trump-Hating MSM have gotten bored with the Dems' unending impotent virtue-signaling.
