Some reports have indicated that Democrats are planning to generate 2 separate articles of impeachment against Donald Trump. It would move Trump closer to historic disapproval from the U.S Congress. The new articles will put his position at risk as the U.S President. The U.S media reported the articles are expected to focus on Trump’s alleged abuses of power and obstruction of Congress, Following on from a lengthy series of both private and public hearings into the president’s dealings with Ukraine. The U.S House Speaker Nancy Pelosi met with Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler along with other senior Democrats. It will decide the shape of upcoming votes pointing to the U.S President. Pelosi spoke just after the meeting but didn’t mention how her party colleagues would proceed.

On Monday night, Pelosi informed at a Wall Street event and said, “You think I’m going to tell you the articles of impeachment? We’re in a place where our members and our leadership of our committees of jurisdiction have now gotten the last input. They’ll make a determination, a recommendation as to how we will go forward and what the articles will be”. Moreover, the rhetoric against Trump during proceedings has increasingly pointed towards the basis for impeachment being his efforts to pressure Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate his political rival Joe Biden and his son Hunter, and efforts to hide this action from the U.S Congress.

It is noteworthy that Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler told the inquiry that multiple witnesses, including respected diplomats, national security professionals, and decorated war veterans, all testified to the same basic fact. President Trump withheld the aid and the meeting in order to pressure a foreign government to do him that favor. President Trump put himself before the country. And when the president got caught, when Congress discovered that the aid had been withheld from Ukraine, the president took extraordinary and unprecedented steps to conceal evidence from Congress and from the American people.
