Demonstrators rallied at the Washington Monument on Saturday to call for the impeachment of President Donald Trump. Members of the Need to Impeach movement partnered with the civic action group NextGen America to persuade Congress to start the impeachment process.
A number of Democratic presidential candidates have also inched closer to supporting impeachment after special counsel Robert Mueller’s public statement last week in which he said he does not intend to testify in a Congressional hearing. NextGen America, which is funded by billionaire Tom Steyer has helped Democrats get elected. However, despite Steyer’s efforts to help Democrats, he has clashed with party leaders. Last year, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi allegedly called an advertisement sponsored by Steyer to get Trump impeached a"distraction," according to Politico.
Pelosi appeared on"Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Thursday night to further defend her stance. “There is a school of thought that says if the Senate acquits you, why bring charges against him in the private sector when he's no longer president? So when we go through with our case, it's got to be ironclad. Ironclad,” she said.
