"Shockingly, Donald Trump threatened to escalate his war of choice in a profane Easter Sunday rant and to eradicate an entire civilization. We will continue to unleash maximum pressure on Republicans to put patriotic duty over party loyalty and join Democrats in stopping the madness."
"More than 85 House Democrats, along with a pair of Democratic senators, called for Trump to be impeached or for Vice President J.D. Vance and the Cabinet to convene and remove Trump by invoking the 25th Amendment."
"Lawmakers were very, very frustrated with Trump's comments on Tuesday, indicating a growing discontent within the party regarding his actions and statements."
Democratic lawmakers are feeling heightened pressure to adopt aggressive tactics against Trump, including impeachment and the 25th Amendment. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries announced a briefing on Trump administration accountability. Following Trump's alarming comments on Truth Social, over 85 House Democrats and two senators called for his impeachment or removal. Despite this, Jeffries and leadership opted to focus on a vote regarding Iran war powers instead of pursuing impeachment, reflecting internal frustrations and the political climate within the party.
