An Unprecedented Abuse of Power

​In the space of one news conference today, the president (a) announced he’d be using the power of his presidency to enrich him personally by holding the G7 summit at his own hotel; and (b) his Chief of Staff explicitly admitted that the president used his powers as Commander in Chief to extort a foreign country into interfering in an American election.

Both of these justify the president’s impeachment and removal from office.
