On April 28, 2025, Representative Shri Thanedar (DโMI) introduced seven articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump in the U.S. House of Representatives. The charges include obstruction of justice, abuse of trade powers, violation of First Amendment rights, bribery, and other alleged abuses of power. This marks the first impeachment resolution filed against Trump during his current term. (Axios, Wikipedia, New York Post)
However, the resolution faces significant obstacles. The Republican Party controls both the House and Senate, making it unlikely that the articles will advance. Some Democratic co-sponsors have already withdrawn their support, citing procedural concerns and lack of party leadership approval. (Axios, Axios, New York Post)
President Trump has dismissed the impeachment effort as a partisan attack and has called on House Republicans to consider expelling the lawmakers behind the resolution. (New York Post)
