Outgoing House Democrat Al Green files another impeachment resolution targeting President Donald Trump

Democratic Rep. Al Green of Texas, who lost a Democratic primary runoff earlier this year, filed a new resolution targeting President Donald Trump for impeachment.


Outgoing House Democrat Al Green files another impeachment resolution targeting President Donald Trump

The resolution accuses Trump of "abusing the powers of the presidency by operating United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) as his vicious, quota-driven, unaccountable paramilitary police forces, transgressing with anonymity and secrecy, assaulting people, committing and covering up unjustified killings of civilians (including Renée Good, Alex Pretti, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, and Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero) with impunity (acting as judge, jury, prosecutor, and executioner), terrorizing communities, and brazenly and wantonly devolving the United States democratic republic into an authoritarian regime, where unjustified killings and coverups by ICE and CBP are normalized."

A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson slammed Green in a statement provided to Fox News Digital on Tuesday.

"These tired allegations are unequivocally FALSE. The only things more inconsequential than Rep. Green's impeachment resolutions are his eleven terms in Congress," the spokesperson asserted. "This type of rhetoric is contributing to our officers facing coordinated campaigns of violence against them including a more than 1,300% increase in assaults against them, 3,300% increase in vehicle attacks, and an 8,000% increase in death threats. President Trump and Secretary Mullin will always stand with our ICE law enforcement officers.

"Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, ICE is targeting the worst of the worst. Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S. There is no quotas for arrests. The men and women of ICE law enforcement are patriots who put their lives on the line every single day to arrest the worst of the worst including murderers, rapists, pedophiles, gang members, and terrorists," the statement concluded.

Fox News Digital also reached out to ICE and CBP on Tuesday.

Green has fielded impeachment resolutions multiple times across both of Trump's White House terms.

The House impeached Trump twice during his first term, but in both cases, the Senate vote did not meet the threshold necessary for conviction. The Senate's vote on the second impeachment took place after Trump had already departed from office.
