The president of the chamber, Nancy Pelosi, has instructed her to present the accusation against the president for "seriously violating" the US Constitution.

 

The president of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, announced on December 5 that she has instructed the Chamber's Judiciary Committee to write formal accusations of the political trial against the country's president, Donald Trump.

"The actions of the president have seriously violated the Constitution," Pelosi said to reporters.

"The facts are indisputable. The president abused his power for his own personal political benefit at the expense of our national security by retaining military aid and (a) crucial meeting of the Oval Office in exchange for an investigation announcement about his political rival." , Pelosi said in reference to Trump's alleged attempt to pressure Kiev to investigate Democratic candidate Joe Biden.

Trump's reaction

 

In response to Pelosi's announcement, the US president said that "this will mean that the impeachment act will be used routinely to attack future presidents." At the same time, the leader stressed that the process of political judgment is not what the founders of the US state "had in mind."

In addition, Donald Trump expressed his conviction that Republicans will win the presidential elections to be held in November 2020, explaining that the party has never been more united than now. "We will win!" Summed up the president.

Earlier this Thursday, Trump asked the House of Representatives Democrats to act quickly if they want to accuse him in the political trial they are promoting in order to "have a fair trial in the Senate" and that the country can move on.

In a series of tweets published this morning, Trump has repeated his opinion that Democrats "don't have a case of political trial." "They are degrading our country," he accused. In addition, the president said that the Democrats "do not care" and "have gone crazy."

Final report on the 'impeachment'
These Trump statements come after disclosure by the US Congressional Intelligence Committee. on December 3 of the final report on the 'impeachment'.

The document maintains that the president requested a foreign interference to increase his chances of being re-elected in the 2020 elections, undermining national security, and ordered an "unprecedented" campaign to obstruct Congress.

 

The report is based on interviews with 17 witnesses carried out during two months of investigation.

The investigation was initiated after the scandal around a phone call between Trump and the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelenski, in July and whose content was fully disclosed in September.

The keys of the report
The report is structured in two sections that are expected to form the basis for the Judicial Committee to invoke articles of political judgment.
The first refers to Trump's alleged pressures on the Government of Ukraine to obtain electoral benefits, which the authors of the report call the president's "misconduct."
This section details possible extortions by the head of state against Kiev to access to investigate the former vice president and current candidate for the US Presidency, Joe Biden.
According to the report, Trump would have offered in exchange for that condition an exchange of favors - 'quid pro quo' - in which millions of dollars in frozen military funds for Ukraine would be released.

The report states that multiple officers of the high ranking of Washington were complicit: from the secretary of state to the acting chief of staff, including the president's personal lawyer, to whom they attribute an essential role.
The first section is expected to become a charge of abuse of power, while the second, which deals with an alleged intimidation of witnesses and a refusal to cooperate in the investigation, would result in a charge of obstruction of justice.
This last section states that the Trump Administration not only refused to present documents or testimonies during the investigation, but that the president "publicly attacked and intimidated the witnesses who appeared to comply with the subpoenas," which constitutes a crime. federal.
