House Dems announce two articles of impeachment against Trump

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- U.S. House Democrats on Tuesday announced two articles of impeachment, accusing President Donald Trump of abuse power and obstruction of Congress.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler said that Democrats were going forward with charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

Trump is the fourth U.S. president in American history to face impeachment. If either of the Judiciary Committee or the House articles is passed, he would be the third U.S. president to face a trial in the Senate.
