Democrats set to introduce impeachment article against Donald Trump: Report

In aftermath of Capitol breach, US Democrats are w planning to introduce an article of impeachment against incumbent president Donald Trump for his role in failed invasion. According to a report by BBC, democrats are set to initiate “incitement of insurrection” in House of Representatives on January 11. If article is successfully invoked, it would mark first time that for an American president would face impeachment twice in his career.

Demanding Trump’s resignation, House speaker and staunch critic of incumbent leader, Nancy Pelosi warned that she would move forward with impeachment if Trump did t vacate his position immediately. Meanwhile, President-elect Joe Biden asserted that although impeachment was on Congress to decide, he for a “long period of time” thought that Trump wasn’t fit for position. Democrats have accused Republican leader of “gravely endangering” security of US, “integrity of democratic system,” hindering peaceful transition of power and jeopardising coordinated branch of government. However, White House has impeachment as a "politically motivated" move that would "only serve to furr divide our great country".
