U.S. House panel recommends Trump be impeached for obstructing Congress
The U.S. House Judiciary Committee on Friday recommended that President Donald Trump be impeached for obstructing a congressional probe into his alleged attempts to force Ukraine to investigate a political rival, Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden. The panel's approval of the article of impeachment sets the stage for a vote by the full House of Representatives next week.
Trump has denied wrongdoing. Earlier, the committee approved a separate article of impeachment accusing Trump of abusing his power by trying to get Ukraine to investigate Biden, a leading contender for the Democratic nomination to run against Trump next year.
