Democrats Hold Third Annual Roast of Al Green’s Impeachment Attempts
KEY POINTS
- •Rep. Al Green kept pushing to impeach Trump over federal immigration killings without party backing.
- •House voted 232-147 to kill Green’s motion, with 47 members voting 'present' to dodge the fight.
- •Green blasted colleagues for lacking courage and challenged them to openly debate the impeachment issue.
In a political binge resembling Groundhog Day but with more eye-rolling, the House voted for the third time in two years to shelve Rep. Al Green’s (D-Texas) rookie-season effort to impeach former President Trump. The vote—232-147 with 47 savvy members playing 'present' like it’s dodgeball—dumped Green’s motion like leftovers at a diet meeting. The Texas Democrat called his cause 'life and death,' targeting killings by federal immigration officials, but his own squad called it 'fucked up,' proving that in politics, you can be dead serious and dead wrong simultaneously. Green challenged critics to a debate while others muttered 'distraction' like frat brothers dodging class.
