Rep. Mike Garcia Votes Against Impeachment Of President Trump
The U.S. House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald Trump for a historic second time a week after he incited a mob of supporters to storm the Capitol and stop Congress from certifying President-elect Joseph Biden's win in the November election.
“With only a few days left in the Trump Administration, the vote to impeach the President is no more than political theater that runs the risk of further dividing us at a time when we need to come together” Garcia said in a Tweet
The House adopted a single article of impeachment, voting 232 to 197 to charge Mr. Trump with “inciting violence against the government of the United States” and requesting his immediate removal from office and disqualification from ever holding one again.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi invoked Abraham Lincoln and the Bible, imploring lawmakers to uphold their oath to defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign “and domestic.” She said of Trump: “He must go, he is a clear and present danger to the nation that we all love.”
The House Republicans voted to impeach President Trump.
