Larson Files 13 Articles, Calls 25th Amendment

Rep. John B. Larson (CT‑01) introduced 13 articles of impeachment, accusing the president of usurping war powers and endangering national security. He urged cabinet members to invoke the 25th Amendment, saying Trump is “unable or unwilling” to fulfill his duties.

Democratic leaders, including Rep. Eric Swalwell and Sen. Ed Markey, have called for impeachment votes and highlighted recent threats, from a potential war with Iran to aggressive moves in Venezuela. The Senate is set to convene Tuesday for the impeachment trial.

Political Stakes

With Republicans defending the president and Democrats seeking a bipartisan consensus, the moves signal an escalating constitutional showdown as the nation watches.
