House Democrats wasted no time returning to their favorite pastime, with Rep. Al Green launching a fresh impeachment crusade against President Donald Trump over his bold vision for Gaza
During a joint appearance on Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, Trump declared his desire to rehabilitate the war-torn enclave by relocating its residents to neighboring Arab countries.

Known for his theatrical floor speeches, the Texas Democrat then went on to accuse both world leaders of ethnic cleansing.
“Ethnic cleansing in Gaza is not a joke, especially when it emanates from the President of the United States, the most powerful person in the world,” Green told reporters, before turning his criticism toward Netanyahu. “The prime minister of Israel should be ashamed, knowing the history of his people, to stand there and allow such things to be said.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson later mounted a robust defense of Trump’s Middle East strategy during a press conference, characterizing the president’s approach as a necessary departure from failed policies of the past.
“There’ll be more details forthcoming on that, of course. The initial announcement yesterday, I think was greeted by surprise by many but cheered by I think people all around the world,” Johnson said. “Why? Because that area is so dangerous. And he’s taking bold, decisive action to try to ensure the peace of that region.”
“Trump has taken bold, decisive action to try to ensure the peace of that region,” he stated. “It’s a bold move, certainly. Far bolder than what’s been done before, but I think we’ve got to stand unequivocally, in an unwavering manner, with Israel, our closest friend and ally in the Middle East.”
For Trump, who already holds the distinction of being impeached twice during his first term, this latest threat marks familiar territory. He joins the ranks of Bill Clinton and Andrew Johnson in the impeachment club, though Richard Nixon dodged that bullet by resigning in 1974. The shoe was briefly on the other foot when Republicans, led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, tried and failed to impeach Biden twice during his tenure as president.”
The late president Reagan took over Granada in the 1980’s.
Not a word about it from the protesters.
He “did” what he wanted to accomplish (supposedly restore law and order), and the Americans left once they finished their jobs.
Americans went into Iraq, Afghanistan (20+ years),. No president was impeached for any of that.
This would be no different.
I am not a fan of President Trump; that said this obsession to impeach him is unhealthy and only turns away voters from Democrats. I was a democrat since forever. So far the president has only spoken, he has not acted on it. Why rush to impeach now? It will only backfire like it did during the elections. US citizens voted against the Democrats.
Now it came out that USAID gave around $35 million to Politico, $9 million to Reuters. That would amount to state sponsored media. I wasn’t aware this is legal in the USA. Paid for with taxpayers money to private and rich corporations while the average American citizen is struggling to pay bills, veterans have lost their home for not paying the mortgage, the homeless veterans don’t get any aid from the government they went to fight for, black American citizens had their center (paid for by the Federal government) in Chicago taken away from them by the state to house illegal migrants, among them criminals who killed Chicago citizens.
New York is a disaster with the trem de aragua gand from Venezuela. The once beautiful San Francisco became an open toilet.
I am a taxpayer and resent tremendously my money being spent overseas when in the US there is poverty, and people who need help.
Lahaina burned to the ground 1 1/2 yr ago, only 3 houses have been rebuilt.
Los Angeles burned almost to the ground, nothing much happening there either. North Carolina was flooded in a hurricane, their citizens got a check for $700 dollars (a joke), while illegal migrants get thousands of dollars of taxpayers money.
Something is very wrong with the way American taxpayers are being treated, about the poor Americans are being treated.
And this congressman wants to impeach the president for saying something (he changes his mind ten times a day) that we know won’t happen? Where is his freedom of speech? The day he acts the congressman would have had more credibility if he sued then.
Now not only he lost credibility, but is turning more people away from the Democrats. It’s a pity they haven’t learned a thing about Vice President Harris’s defeat.
I am a woman who will not forgive the “grab them by the pussy” comment. That said President Trump won the elections. It’s time for Democrats to fix their party to try to win the next election. It is not by going obsessively after President Trump that they will win future elections. Let him do his job, he won based on promises to the US citizens. He is now delivering those promises.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
JBN congratulations, keep up with your reporting the facts, that’s why you still have credibility, and respect from people, including gentiles, not just Jews.
US Presidents from the Jimmy the peanut farmer to Bill the Arkansa pretty boy, to Barak the closet Muslim , who bowed to a Arab and to his puppet Sleepy joe and side kick Pocahontas-Harris are the only true and real candidates for impeachment and moreover, for war crimes created by heinous political sycophantic policies.
I accuse you of removing boycotts and sanctions on Iran, thereby facilitating terrorism world wide
I accuse you of supplying humanitarian aid to barbaric terrorist enabling them to keep on killing;
I accuse you for hog tying Israel by withholding weapons.
I accuse you of bullying, manipulating and backstabbing your only ally and friend during wartime to appease your voters.
To these unworthy and corrupt presidents I say, Gd will judge you.
I accuse you of genocide, for the spilled blood of every Israeli boy and girl that will stain you forever with thec mark of Cain.
I impeach you retroactively and posthumously for being the agents of attempted genocide of Jews in Israel.
