Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota on Thursday released an article and a list of co-sponsors drafted against the impeachment of US President Donald Trump after the violence that erupted at Capitol hill on Wednesday.

Co-sponsors in the impeachment article are Reps. David Cicilline, Ted Lieu, Al Green, Hank Johnson, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, Vicente Gonzalez, Jamaal Bowman, Mondaire Jones, Veronica Escobar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Cori Bush.

"I invite you to join me in introducing a resolution to impeach Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors. Once again, Trump has violated his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.

"Every single hour that Donald Trump remains in office, our country, our democracy, and our national security remain in danger. Congress must take immediate action to keep the people of this country safe and set a precedent that such behavior cannot be tolerated," Omar wrote.

Donald Trump remains the single greatest threat to our democracy,” Omar said. “Every day that he remains in the office of the presidency—overseeing the United States military and nuclear arsenal—is a day the safety of the American people and the world are threatened. The very administration officials who have been complicit in his crimes cannot be relied upon. We must impeach and remove him from office immediately so that he cannot threaten our democracy and the world any longer or hold public office ever again. Congress should reconvene immediately to carry out this constitutional duty.”

Omar, who won reelection to Minnesota’s 5th congressional district in November, added: “When Members of Congress and the President try to overthrow our government, it does not just undermine our own democracy, but the cause of democracy around the world. Objecting to the results to appease President Trump over the voices of millions of voters will have lasting repercussions for generations to come. Every Republican who objects to these fair and accurate results will have their name etched in history for this treasonous act.”

Earlier, she called Wednesday’s chaos “a coup attempt”:

She said : "Today, I watched as armed terrorists stormed the United States Capitol, including the House and Senate chambers, in an effort to stop the certification of our Presidential election. Members of Congress, our families, staff and law enforcement’s lives were all put at risk. We should not mince words about what this was: a coup attempt, in the world’s leading democracy no less.

"Thankfully, I am now safe in a secure location, but am heartbroken about what we are enduring at our nation’s capital.

"This is not a one-off incident. It is the result of years of collaboration on the part of the Republican Party, who have aided and abetted Trump’s criminal attempts to destroy our republic, and the cause of democracy around the world.

"All leaders should denounce this coup. And the President should be impeached and removed from office for his open sedition."

Also, Pennsylvania Congressman Mike Doyle is co-sponsoring impeachment articles against President Donald Trump for the civil unrest that occurred on Wednesday.

Doyle announced hours earlier that he supports the 25th Amendment being invoked against President Trump in order to remove him from office. 

Several other high-ranking legislators, including Senator Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, urged Vice President Mike Pence and the President’s Cabinet to use the 25th Amendment to immediately remove Trump from office.

Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey and Rep. Betty McCollum also supported invoking the 25th Amendment against Trump.

Aside from legislators in the first world country, American celebrities including Lady Gaga, Steve Wonder and John Legend have also taken to their social media platform to call for the impeachment of Donald Trump over the violence by his supporters at the Capitol hill where five people died amid the chaos, including one woman who was shot inside the capitol and a Policeman who died on Thursday.

The development marks some of the aggressive penalties meted out to Trump over his four-year term,a period in which he has repeatedly peddled falsehoods, attacked critics and spread divisive rhetoric online.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced on Thursday that President Donald Trump would be banned from using Facebook and Instagram “indefinitely” following a pro-Trump attack on the US Capitol on Wednesday.

Twitter on Wednesday evening suspended Trump for 12 hours, but the ban was lifted on Thursday morning and the President has since not yet tweeted.
