House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) introduced resolutions on Thursday to expunge former President Donald Trump’s Articles of Impeachments.
Upon Republicans retaking the House in November, Stefanik and Greene introduced two measures to make the Democrats’ impeachments of Trump nonexistent, as if such Articles of Impeachment had never passed the full House of Representatives.
Stefanik’s resolution aims to expunge Trump’s impeachment concerning January 6. She asserts the facts and circumstances upon which the House Democrats impeached Trump did not meet the burden of proving that Trump committed “high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” She also argues the impeachment did not establish that Trump engaged in an “insurrection or rebellion against the United States.”
“The American people know Democrats weaponized the power of impeachment against President Donald Trump to advance their own extreme political agenda,” Stefanik said in a press release.
“From the beginning of this sham process, I stood up against Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff’s blatant attempt to shred the Constitution as House Democrats ignored the Constitution and failed to follow the legislative process,” she added. “President Donald Trump was rightfully acquitted, and it is past time to expunge Democrats’ sham smear against not only President Trump’s name, but against millions of patriots across the country.”
Greene’s resolution focuses on Trump’s 2019 impeachment regarding the “perfect phone call.” Greene argues Trump was wrongfully accused of misconduct, demonstrated by the information revealed in the FBI informant document that alleges Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe. The resolution asserts the articles of impeachment did not meet the burden of proof of “high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”
“The Democrats, led by Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff, weaponized a perfect phone call with Ukraine to interfere with the 2020 election,” Greene said. “Meanwhile, the FBI had credible evidence of Joe and Hunter Biden’s corrupt dealings, confirming their involvement in a foreign bribery pay-to-play scheme and receipt of over $5 million each.
“All of this information was revealed to Congress by the FD-1023 form from the FBI’s most credible informant,” she continued. “The form vindicates President Trump and exposes the crimes of the Biden family.”
“I’m proud to work with Chairwoman Elise Stefanik on our joint resolutions to correct the record and clear President Trump’s good name,” she added.

Hunter Biden needed to be jailed if you or I would to be in his shoes we would be in prison for many years! Also we the people are getting no answers from the government they keep saying we can’t answer this you will have to talk to white house advisor team! Remember you the government and president work for us if you wish not to answer our questions I feel all everyone of you should be prosecuted and fired and the so called President should be impeached and stand trial for all the wrongs he has done to the United States of America along with the FBI,CIA and anyone else meaning ex-presidents , or their wives not or including kids Treason against the United States of America with China and Now President that had top secret Documents when he wasn’t even supposed to even have any of the Documents open for a college to openly read them and share with other countries! It shows why we now are the laughing stock of the world as Mr.Biden wanted it to become anyway and the FBI and the CIA were only happy to assist him! So in my eyes all the top offices are over paid and don’t want to do their jobs and it’s time to retire them to working at Walmart and they should lose all their pensions and benefits for their injustice from their wrong doings and pay it back into the Americans fund’s to help us create America the Beautiful and number one country in the world 🌎 again because I know that everyone of them have more in their bank and retirement than I can make in 20 lifetime’s and that is sickening to think that they would follow a false leader like Biden!!
