Donald Trump called on Republicans to impeach House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries after Jeffries criticized the Supreme Court. The article explains that congressional members may be expelled by their chambers, but impeachment likely does not apply to them. Must remove bracket ids; citations only arrays. We know no citations inline. Fix.
President Donald Trump urged Republicans to impeach Hakeem Jeffries after Jeffries called the Supreme Court “illegitimate.” Jeffries responded on X with “Jeffries Derangement Syndrome.” The article says Constitution Annotated finds impeachment likely does not apply to members of Congress, while the Constitution gives each chamber power to expel its members.
