Impeachment

Americans have only faced the impeachment of a President three times in the 230 years since the passage of the United States Constitution. Because only three of our forty-five Presidents have faced impeachment proceedings, many misconceptions about the purpose and method for impeaching the President abound. Since we live in a self-governing republic, it is important for citizens to understand the history of, the logic behind, and the procedure for the impeachment process.

Nancy Pelosi celebrated the transmission of the impeachment articles from the House to the Senate this week by handing out commemorative pens.

Republication Senator Lindsey Graham is imploring Nancy Pelosi to send the articles of impeachment over to the Senate so they can start the trial against President Trump.

As the impeachment process continues on, it appears to be signaling a shift in the religious and political winds.

 Christians only seem to be divided because many claiming to be “Christians” are not genuinely saved, or they have a wrong view of government. As a result, their perception of truth is skewed, hence the divide. They are led by Hollywood, not the Holy Spirit. Ironically, Hollywood, liberals and progressives also liked Mark Galli’s op-ed. If Hollywood and the national media are on your side, there’s a problem.

In a recent op-ed written by evangelical magazine Christianity Today, the publication argued that Donald Trump should be removed from office.

From the outset, Donald Trump's presidency has been met with controversy. The 45th President of the United States, Trump has just become the 3rd U.S. President to be officially impeached.

The House voted to approve two articles of impeachment against President Trump, making him the third U.S. President to be impeached.

A party-line vote yesterday has resulted in the approval of six hours of debate on the House floor in regards to articles of impeachment levied against the President.

As impeachment efforts push forward today, new polls show that only 50 percent of the American public believe the president should be impeached.
