Washington, D.C. – In a high-stakes political maneuver, Congressman Shri Thanedar (D-MI) has filed seven articles of impeachment against President Donald J. Trump, citing what he describes as "a sweeping abuse of power" and acts of "tyrannical overreach" that endanger the U.S. Constitution and democratic institutions.
The resolution, announced on April 28 and published on Thanedar’s official website, accuses Trump of multiple constitutional violations, including obstruction of justice, defiance of court orders, and attempts to centralize unchecked power.
