Trump Impeachment Effort Fails After Bipartisan House Rejection

In a stunning rebuke to radical Democrats, the House of Representatives firmly rejected an impeachment attempt against President Trump over his decisive military action against Iran’s nuclear sites. The bipartisan rejection dealt a significant blow to the latest attempt by Trump’s political enemies to undermine his presidency.

At a glance:

• The House voted 344-79 to defeat Rep. Al Green’s impeachment resolution against President Trump

• 128 Democrats joined all 216 Republicans in voting against the impeachment attempt

• The resolution accused Trump of abusing power by striking Iran’s nuclear sites without congressional authorization

• Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed Trump’s actions violated the Constitution and Congressional War Powers

• President Trump dismissed AOC’s comments, calling her “one of the ‘dumbest’ people in Congress”

Democrats Divided on Impeachment Push

In a decisive blow to the radical wing of the Democratic party, the House overwhelmingly rejected Texas Democrat Al Green’s resolution to impeach President Trump over military strikes against Iran. The vote saw 128 Democrats join forces with all 216 Republicans to defeat the measure by a stunning 344-79 margin.

Green’s resolution accused the President of abusing power by ordering strikes on Iranian nuclear sites without congressional authorization, claiming Trump was undermining democracy and facilitating a shift toward authoritarianism. This marked the first attempt by House Democrats to impeach Trump during his second term in office.

AOC Leads Radical Wing Against Trump

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez emerged as one of the most vocal supporters of impeachment, making inflammatory claims about the President’s constitutional authority. The New York Democrat called Trump’s decision to strike Iran “a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.”

“He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment,” Ocasio-Cortez said, despite the bipartisan consensus supporting the President’s actions to protect American interests.

President Trump wasted no time responding to the failed impeachment attempt, specifically calling out Ocasio-Cortez. “Stupid AOC, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, one of the ‘dumbest’ people in Congress, is now calling for my Impeachment, despite the fact that the Crooked and Corrupt Democrats have already done that twice before,” Trump stated, highlighting the Democrats’ repeated failed attempts to remove him from office.

Third Failed Impeachment Attempt

This latest rejection marks the third failed attempt by Democrats to impeach President Trump, following two unsuccessful efforts during his first term. Democratic leadership has generally avoided forcing impeachment votes since Trump returned to office, with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries previously blocking an attempt by Rep. Shri Thanedar.

Rep. Al Green has a history of targeting Trump, having previously attempted to impeach him and disrupting a joint session of Congress earlier this year. The Texas Democrat’s extreme position failed to gain traction even among his own party, demonstrating the political isolation of the most radical anti-Trump voices in Congress.

The overwhelming defeat of this impeachment resolution signals strong bipartisan support for President Trump’s decisive action against Iran’s nuclear program. Despite continued attempts by radical Democrats to undermine his presidency, Trump maintains broad support for his strong foreign policy stance and commitment to protecting American interests abroad.
