Politicians react to Pelosi’s President Trump impeachment inquiry

Donald Trump has abused his power, obstructed justice, and violated his oath of office. He puts his political interests over our national interest.

I agree with @SpeakerPelosi — no one is above the law.
He must be impeached.

BIG:
The Senate by unanimous consent passed my resolution calling for the whistleblower complaint to be provided to Congress as required by law.
That means every GOP Senator supports the whistleblower report being immediately provided to the Senate and House Intel Committees.

In 2016, Trump welcomed foreign adversaries to meddle in our democracy for his own gain. Now he appears to be using the same playbook to remain in power. I applaud Speaker Pelosi’s announcement of an impeachment inquiry—it’s our one remaining path to ensuring justice is served.
