Democrats Threaten More Impeachment Drama If They Regain Power [WATCH]

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer suggested on Sunday that Democrats could pursue a new impeachment effort against President Donald Trump if they regain control of the House and Senate in upcoming elections.

During an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Schumer accused Trump of “violating the rule of law” but said it was too early to confirm whether Democrats would prioritize filing articles of impeachment.

Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff of Georgia had recently stated at a Friday town hall that President Trump had committed multiple offenses that, in his view, exceeded “any prior standard for impeachment.”

Bash asked Schumer if he agreed with Ossoff and whether impeachment would be a focus for Democrats should they reclaim majorities in Congress.

“Well look, right now, President Trump is violating the rule of the law in every way,” Schumer responded.

“And we’re fighting him every single day in every way. And our goal is to show the American people, over and over again, whether it’s the economy, whether it’s tariffs, whether it’s Russia and overseas and whether it’s rule of law, how bad he is. Two years is too far away to predict, our job is day to day to day, to show who Trump is, what he is doing and it’s having an effect … Look, it’s too far away to even judge.”

Democratic leaders have accused President Trump of disregarding federal court orders, particularly relating to immigration enforcement.

One allegation involves a March 15 order by U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who ordered a plane transporting more than 200 members of the Tren de Agua gang to be returned to the United States.

Democrats argue that the administration defied the order, while officials maintain they did not violate the court’s directive.

Another point of contention is the administration’s handling of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 member who had been deported to El Salvador.

The U.S. Supreme Court directed the administration to “facilitate” Garcia’s return, and Democrats claim the order was not properly followed.

In addition to these accusations, Democratic Rep. Al Green of Texas has continued to push for impeachment.

Green, who first moved to impeach Trump just three weeks after his second term began, recently told protesters in early April that he would introduce articles of impeachment against the president within 30 days, asserting that Trump does not deserve to hold public office.

President Trump was previously impeached twice by the Democratic-led House of Representatives.

The first impeachment was initiated under former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on December 18, 2019, tied to a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during which Trump requested investigations into then-former Vice President Joe Biden’s family.

Trump was acquitted by the Senate.

The second impeachment followed the events of January 6, 2021, when a group of protesters breached the U.S. Capitol.

The Senate again acquitted President Trump.

With the next election cycle approaching, Democratic leaders have not ruled out the possibility of pursuing additional impeachment efforts should they secure enough seats to regain control of Congress.
