==Impeach Trump==
A group of six Democratic House members introduced articles of [[impeachment]] against President Donald Trump Wednesday November 15, 2017, claiming the president has violated federal law, the public trust and should be charged with high crimes and misdemeanors.
Democratic Reps. [[Steve Cohen]] of Tennessee, [[Luis Gutierrez]] of Illinois, [[Al Green]] of Texas and [[Adriano Espaillat]] of New York introduced five articles of impeachment. The articles have two more co-sponsors: Reps. [[Marcia Fudge]] of Ohio and John Yarmuth of Kentucky.
The congressmen list a number of charges against the president, including: obstruction of justice, a violation of the Constitution’s foreign emoluments clause, a violation of the Constitution’s domestic emoluments clause, undermining the federal judiciary process and undermining the press.
The articles focus primarily on Trump’s handing of the termination of disgraced FBI director [[James Comey]], and potential conflicts of interest with Trump’s businesses and properties while he’s served as president.<ref>[http://dailycaller.com/2017/11/15/dems-introduce-articles-of-impeachment-against-trump/?utm_medium=push&utm_source=daily_caller&utm_campaign=push Dems Introduce Articles Of Impeachment Against Trump],ROBERT DONACHIE Capitol Hill and Health Care Reporter 10:04 AM 11/15/2017</ref>
