We must act with a sense of urgency to protect our democracy and defend our Constitution.
Eric Swalwell
The Public Record
There are no crimes here? That is the defense my colleagues across the aisle are putting forward? How about the highest crime that one who holds public office could commit, a crime against our Constitution?
In President Trump's abuse of power, he did it in two ways. Number one, he endangered our free elections by inviting foreign powers to interfere to influence our elections twice.
Abuse of power is the preeminent crime, which the Framers, even in the Federalist Papers, talked about as high crimes and misdemeanors for the purpose of impeachment.
What is relevant is, that there are ample facts to demonstrate that President Trump put his personal interests above the interests of the country, its citizens, and the Constitution.
This is no longer about what the President did. We know what he did. He admitted it.
