Dems Unveil "Overwhelming And Uncontested" Articles Of Impeachment Against Trump

In a press conference that was about as boring as we expected, most of the Democratic leadership in the House gathered Tuesday morning to announce the articles of impeachment against President Trump.

As the contents of the articles were announced, Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff alleged that the evidence against Trump was "Overwhelming and uncontested".

Nancy Pelosi is racing against the clock to deliver the ultimate stocking full of coal to President Trump - a holiday season impeachment.

The panel's Republican counsel, Steve Castor, reiterated one of the chief defenses of the president that's been put forward by Trump allies: "The impeachment inquiry's record is riddled with hearsay, presumptions and speculation."

Faced with the revelation of his pressure campaign against Ukraine, Trump directed an unprecedented effort to obstruct Congress' impeachment inquiry into his conduct.

"The record in the Democrats' impeachment inquiry does not show that President Trump abused the power of Congress or obstructed Congress," Castor said.

Though Nadler says he hasn't yet made a final decision, it looks like evidence from the Mueller probe will be left out of the articles of impeachment by Democrats.
