Iran Press/ America: US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a scathing letter to colleagues that the House is prepared to launch impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump as early as this week if Vice President Mike Pence and the Cabinet refuse to remove him from office for his role in inciting a mob that carried out a deadly assault on the seat of American government.
On Monday, the House would move forward with a non-binding resolution that calls on Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment, and strip Trump of his presidential authority. If the measure fails to receive unanimous support, as is expected, the House will vote on the resolution on Tuesday. Pence, she said, would have “24 hours” to respond.
Democrats promise quick move to impeachment if 25th Amendment push fails.
On 6 January, Trump supporters stormed into the Congress building and tried to enter the building as the counting of the electoral college was underway, all the doors of Congress were locked and even reporters could not get out of the building. 219
