Cory Booker Gets There: Time To Begin Impeachment

Insider New Jersey reports:

Democratic presidential hopeful Cory Booker on Wednesday joined other Democrats in calling for Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against President Trump.

The New Jersey senator endorsed the idea of impeachment shortly after special counsel Robert Mueller addressed the findings of his two-year probe for the first time Wednesday.

Booker joins a number of other 2020 White House rivals who have called for impeachment in the wake of Mueller’s 448-page report released earlier this year.

Robert Mueller’s statement makes it clear: Congress has a legal and moral obligation to begin impeachment proceedings immediately.

I’ve been asking for Mueller’s testimony—today he made his views clear.

This Administration has continued to stonewall Congress’s oversight. Beginning impeachment proceedings is the only path forward.
