Andrew Yang calling for Trump impeachment
Presidential candidate Andrew Yang this week came forward in support of launching impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump just one hour before House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to announce a formal impeachment inquiry.
"Given the President's latest actions I think impeachment is the right path forward," Yang tweeted on Tuesday afternoon."Asking foreign leaders for political help in return for aid and then suppressing your own agency's inquiry is egregious. There have to be limits and Congress is right to act." According to unnamed officials, Pelosi's announcement will come after a closed-door meeting with the Democratic caucus. The House Speaker has previously been hesitant in impeachment talks but in recent days has appeared to change her mind after the emergence of the whistleblower scandal.
