NextImg:Opinion | Trump Is Daring Us to Impeach Him Again

It was clear from the first day of President Trump’s second term that Round 2 would be very different from Round 1.

Trump’s revocation of law firms’ security clearances and access to federal facilities, his cutoff of research grants to Harvard, his multimillion-dollar cryptocurrency deals, his decision to send 700 Marines to contain protests in a five-block section of Los Angeles, his usurpation of congressional power over federal spending — all of these acts have left millions of Americans aggravated and apprehensive, even as a substantial number of U.S. citizens remain untouched and largely unmoved.

We now have a president imposing an agenda far more dangerous than anything Richard Nixon dreamed of.

Here is one measure of Trump’s reign of corruption.

In the five months Trump has held office in his second term, the number of impeachable offenses legal scholars estimate that he has already committed range from three to eight or more.

This is not to say Trump will be impeached. The current Republican-controlled House is far too subservient to even consider it.

In pursuit of his agenda, Trump has sacrificed due process, gutted congressional authority, politicized the administration of justice and run roughshod over the First Amendment.
