Democrats simply would not be Democrats if they did not dangle the impeachment carrot in front of the woketivist left within days or weeks of Donald Trump taking office, and this time around has been no exception to the rule.

Rep. Al Green (D-TX), in particular, is a big fan of throwing the threat around carelessly, having done so multiple times during Trump's first term in the White House, and in the process earning the distinction of being the first Congressional Democrat to formally request, on the House floor, impeachment proceedings against him at the time.

“This is about my position. This is about what I believe. And this is where I stand. I will not be moved. The President must be impeached,” Green stated in a speech given on May 17, 2017.  Two months later, he would co-sponsor an article of impeachment alongside Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) related to the Russiagate hoax.

Here we are in 2025, and Green is back at it again, taking to the House floor not even three weeks into President Trump's second term and going on a wildly unhinged rant, demanding his impeachment over the POTUS' surprise suggestion Tuesday during his meeting with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the U.S essentially take over the Gaza Strip. 

In his floor remarks, Green described this as "ethnic cleansing":

“The movement to impeach the president has begun,” Green said on the House floor. “I rise to announce that I will bring articles of impeachment against the president for dastardly deeds proposed and dastardly deeds done.”

[...]

“Ethnic cleansing is not a joke, especially when it emanates from the president of the United States, the most powerful person in the world, when he has the ability to perfect what he says. Ethnic cleansing in Gaza is no joke, and the prime minister of Israel should be ashamed knowing the history of his people,” Green said.

Watch:

Thursday morning, Green appeared on C-SPAN's "Washington Journal" program to make his case - and then got schooled by a Savannah, GA, Republican caller named Richard right off the bat:

"Thank you. I watched you yesterday with the Democrat Party, Al, protesting everything that Elon Musk is trying to do for the American people. The USAID is 100 percent a money laundering scheme around the world, kickbacks back to the Democrat Party, whether it's to the Clinton Foundation in Haiti - $4.4 billion and $84 million went to her daughter, Chelsea Clinton.

All y'all have is impeachment, and race, and gender, etc.  And you actually do nothing for the people of America today. I think the Democrats should sit back and let America see what it‘s like to reduce the people in government, the wasteful spending. All y‘all can do is just complain and be negative. We are sick of it."

BOOM. Watch:

I think that caller hit the nail on the head.

If Democrats think the American people have an appetite for impeachment at all, let alone so soon after Trump has taken office, they are absolutely delusional. Further, impeachment was not designed to be a weapon used simply due to disagreement with a president's policies or suggestions.

You wouldn't know that by listening to Green, though, who said the quiet part out loud in 2019 about the real reasons why Democrats were weaponizing it against Trump:

Some things - and Democrats - just never change.
