The House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald Trump on Wednesday after months of debate.
The House voted on two separate articles of impeachment. The first vote was of abuse of power and the second was obstruction of Congress. On the first article the House voted 230-197, with Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard voting “present.” On the second article the House voted 229-198, with Gabbard voting “present” again. No Republicans voted for the impeachment of President Trump.
Well there it is.

One of the Democrats, Maine Rep. Jared Golden voted for article one and against article two.
The Republican-led Senate will now hold a trial and then vote whether or not to remove Trump.
Since November 8, 2016, Democrats have been waiting for this moment.
—They got their Impeachment.
After President Trump is acquitted in the Senate, full focus will now be on 2020.
No distractions.
Full Speed Ahead. 🇺🇸
