Two hundred and thirty-eight lawmakers are calling to impeach President Trump following the Wednesday riots at the U.S. Capitol, according to the latest tally on Friday morning.
The number of lawmakers calling for President Trump’s impeachment is growing, with House Democrats drafting articles of impeachment which conclude that the president effectively exists as a “threat to national security, democracy, and the Constitution.”
“President Trump thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any sort of office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States,” the articles state, accusing Trump of inciting the riots that occurred at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, resulting in evacuations, lockdowns, and fatalities — including one police officer.
Two-hundred members of the House of Representatives back the calls to impeach Trump — all Democrats and one Republican, Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL).
According to CNN’s running tally, the other House members include:
Rep. David Cicilline of Rhode Island Rep. Ted Lieu of California Rep. Jerrold Nadler of New York Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee Rep. Hank Johnson of Georgia Rep.
