DERANGED: Democrat Senator DEMANDS Impeachment of Trump Just Weeks Into Second Term
Markey said Democrats should make impeaching Trump an agenda priority.

SOURCE CHECK
TAP FOR WHYNext News Network presents the story in strongly partisan language and offers little evidence beyond Markey’s remarks and an unnamed Republican strategist. The byline is identified, but the text provides few signs of balanced reporting or editorial safeguards.
- Source type — A video-oriented outlet publishing a sharply partisan political article.
- Editorial standards — Loaded assertions and labels dominate, with little substantiation of the article’s broader claims.
- Author attribution — A named author is identified, but the article relies partly on an unnamed strategist.
The article includes Markey’s reported remarks and one quotation from an unnamed Republican strategist, but supplies little sourcing or context for its claims and presents no meaningful opposing perspective.
HOW WE SCORE ↗The piece is overwhelmingly critical of Markey and Democrats, while praising Trump’s actions. It includes only a Republican strategist’s perspective and does not offer a response from the people it criticizes.
- Counterarguments presented — No defense or explanation of Markey’s position is included.
- Loaded language — Repeatedly uses pejorative language for Democrats and approving language for Trump.
- Source diversity — The only quoted outside source is an unnamed Republican strategist.
- Opinion vs reporting — Advocacy-style assertions are presented alongside the reported remarks.
The article uses explicitly pro-Trump, anti-Democratic language and describes Markey’s position as irrational and illegitimate. Its framing and source selection strongly favor one political side.
- Language tone — Uses labels such as “unhinged,” “radical,” and “sham” to condemn Democrats and Markey.
- Framing — Frames the impeachment call as an attack on voters’ will rather than neutrally examining the proposal.
- Source selection — Quotes an unnamed Republican strategist but includes no supporting response or counterargument from Markey or Democrats.
Sen. Ed Markey said Democrats should make impeaching President Donald Trump an agenda priority. The article presents Markey’s remarks as partisan political maneuvering and argues that impeachment is unwarranted.
The article reports that Markey said on CNN that impeachment “has to be the Democratic agenda” and that Democrats “must proceed towards the goal” of removing Trump, despite holding a minority in Congress. It says Markey’s comments came three weeks into Trump’s second term.

6 OUTLETSOutlets agree that Sen. Edward Markey called for President Donald Trump’s impeachment or removal in connection with the Iran conflict. Left-leaning outlets emphasize Markey’s push for impeachment over alleged plans for war crimes and his criticism of Republicans’ silence. Center outlets focus on his CNN defense of the removal demand amid questions about impeachment’s usefulness. Right-leaning outlets cast the call as partisan maneuvering and an unwarranted challenge to voters’ will.
