Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) has reportedly introduced articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump — who has a clear mandate from American voters to enact his agenda — accusing him of obstruction of justice, abuse of trade powers, and tyranny, among other items.
Thanedar took to X on Monday to announce he has officially filed a resolution to impeach President Trump:

Fox News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram posted on X that a colleague confirmed Thanedar’s filing of the impeachment resolution.
The articles of impeachment reportedly include “obstruction of justice/violation of due process, usurpation of appropriations power, abuse of trade powers and international aggression, violations of the First Amendment, creation of an unlawful office, bribery and corruption, and tyranny.”
Thanedar’s hasty impeachment articles arrive on the eve of Trump’s first 100 days in office for his second nonconsecutive White House term, following a landslide election victory in November 2024 that saw the 45th and 47th president win not only the Electoral College, but the popular vote and every swing state in the nation.
Since taking office, President Trump, who campaigned extensively on cracking down on illegal immigration, invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to fast-track the deportation of migrants, sending multiple alleged gang members to an El Salvador prison as judges have rushed to thwart his efforts.
Last week, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) arrested a left-wing Wisconsin judge — Judge Hannah Dugan — for allegedly helping an illegal migrant escape arrest.
“No one is above the law,” FBI Director Kash Patel asserted in a Friday X post.
Democrats had a meltdown over the FBI’s surprise arrest of the activist judge, prompting White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller to point out that Democrats “spent the last 8 years stripping Americans of due process to jail them for protected political activity” and were “illegally spying on the Trump Campaign.”
Miller also accused Democrats of “using the FBI and intelligence apparatus to pursue political enemies” and “launching a coup against President Trump and his Administration,” among a litany of other offenses.
“At the same time, Democrats orchestrated and engineered a mass invasion of the United States by foreign cartels and enemy terrorists, resulting in immense casualties and suffering across the nation,” Miller continued.
On Monday, Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, warned officials or judges knowingly harboring illegal immigrants that they “will be prosecuted” if they are caught impeding the president’s deportation activities.
