House Democrats introduced a single article of impeachment
against President Donald Trump on Monday for "incitement of
insurrection," over the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol.
The impeachment bill from Reps. David Cicilline of Rhode
Island, Ted Lieu of California, Jamie Raskin of Maryland and and Jerrold Nadler
of New York draws from Trump's own false statements about his election defeat
to Biden. Judges across the country, including some nominated by Trump, have
repeatedly dismissed cases, and Attorney General William Barr, a Trump ally,
has said there was no sign of widespread fraud.
The bill of impeachment details Trump's pressure on state
officials in Georgia to “find” him more votes and his White House rally ahead
of the Capitol siege, in which he encouraged thousands of supporters to “fight
like hell” and march to the building.
While some have questioned impeaching the president so close
to the end of his term, Democrats and others argue he must be held accountable
for his actions and prevented from ever again seeking public office. He would
be the only president twice impeached.
