What we do
Our Mission
At Americans for Impeachment, our mission is to educate the public with fact-based, non-partisan information about Donald Trump’s record—highlighting both his impeachable offenses and the actions that endanger America’s national security, democratic institutions, public health, and the economic well-being of everyday Americans. By shining a light on these threats, we empower citizens to demand leadership that upholds the principles of democracy, integrity, and public service. Our goal is not driven by hate or partisanship but by a commitment to accountability, justice, and the rule of law.
The Argument for Removal: Why All Americans Should Demand Trump’s Impeachment Regardless of Political Affiliation

The Democratic Angle
Donald Trump’s presidency represents a direct assault on the rule of law, democratic institutions, and the fundamental values of justice and equality. His actions—from attempting to overturn free and fair elections to obstructing justice and undermining the separation of powers—pose an existential threat to democracy itself. His blatant disregard for national security, including mishandling classified documents and alienating U.S. allies, endangers the safety of Americans and weakens global stability. Meanwhile, his administration has actively rolled back environmental protections, exacerbating the climate crisis at a time when urgent action is needed to preserve our planet for future generations. Trump’s prioritization of the wealthy elite over working Americans has widened economic inequality, while his administration’s catastrophic mismanagement of public health crises has cost countless lives. Profiting from the presidency, pardoning political allies who committed crimes, and using the office for personal enrichment are all hallmarks of authoritarianism, not American democracy. Impeaching and removing Trump is not about political rivalry—it is about restoring accountability, upholding the Constitution, and ensuring that no leader, regardless of party, is above the law.

The Independent Angle
Donald Trump’s actions transcend partisan politics—his leadership threatens the core values that define America. The United States has long stood as a beacon of democracy, integrity, and the rule of law. However, Trump has systematically eroded these principles, undermining democratic norms, attacking the free press, and showing blatant disregard for the Constitution. His reckless foreign policy decisions have weakened America’s global alliances, making the nation less secure and less respected on the world stage. His rejection of science and disregard for public health policies have cost American lives, while his failure to address climate change endangers the wellbeing of future generations. True American leadership requires setting an example for the world, showing that the U.S. remains a nation governed by laws, not by personal loyalty to a single man. Leaving Trump in power sends a dangerous message that criminality, corruption, and self-interest can go unchecked at the highest levels of government. Independents who value integrity, accountability, and America’s long-term future must recognize that impeaching and removing Trump is not a partisan action—it is a necessary step to protect the country from irreversible harm.

The Republican Angle
The Republican Party has long championed conservative values—limited government, fiscal responsibility, national security, and individual freedom. Yet under Donald Trump, these principles have been abandoned in favor of an agenda that serves oligarchs, foreign adversaries, and political extremists rather than the American people. Trump’s reckless economic policies, including damaging tariffs and out-of-control federal spending, have led to record deficits and instability in global markets, undermining the financial strength of the country. His administration’s disregard for military alliances and national security protocols has emboldened adversaries, while his obsession with loyalty over competence has purged experienced officials in favor of sycophants. Traditional conservatism values the Constitution, yet Trump has sought to govern as an autocrat, attacking the judiciary, obstructing congressional oversight, and ignoring the rule of law. If Republicans do not act now to hold him accountable, the party will be permanently tied to his corruption, his failures, and his betrayal of American ideals. Supporting impeachment and removal is not about surrendering to Democrats—it is about reclaiming the Republican Party’s integrity, protecting America’s standing in the world, and ensuring that conservatism is defined by principle, not by blind allegiance to a single man.

understanding the need for impeaching & removing trump
It’s Necessary & Proper
- Violation of Federal Law and the Constitution: On his first day in office, President Trump attempted to use an Executive Order to blatantly strip Americans of birthright citizenship, something guaranteed in the 14th Amendment. Then President Trump issued executive orders to “pause” congressionally approved funds, actions that likely violate the Impoundment Control Act of 1974, which restricts the executive branch from unilaterally withholding funds appropriated by Congress. Additionally, his dismissal of multiple Inspectors General without the legally required 30-day notice to Congress undermines established oversight mechanisms and breaches federal statutes.
- Impeachment as the Appropriate Remedy: The impeachment process is the constitutionally designated mechanism to address presidential misconduct, especially when actions threaten the balance of power and the rule of law. Given the gravity of these violations, impeachment is the proper avenue to hold the President accountable and to prevent further unlawful actions.
- Upholding National Values and Global Standing: Congress’s response to these actions will signal to both domestic and international audiences the United States’ commitment to its foundational principles. Choosing to impeach reinforces the nation’s dedication to the rule of law and democratic governance, thereby maintaining America’s ethical standing on the world stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are our top frequently asked questions… but check out our FAQ page for more!
Why is it necessary for Congress to impeach and remove Donald Trump from office now?
Donald Trump has already committed numerous constitutional violations, abuses of power, and potential criminal acts in his second term. From attempting to override federal law with unconstitutional executive orders to obstructing oversight and undermining national security, his actions pose an immediate danger to American democracy. If Congress fails to act, it sets a precedent that presidents can violate the Constitution without consequences, eroding the very foundation of our democracy. Impeachment isn’t about political disagreement—it’s about protecting the rule of law and ensuring no president is above it.
With Republicans controlling both the House and Senate, does impeachment even have a chance of succeeding?
While Republicans currently hold a majority in Congress, history has shown that public pressure and bipartisan accountability can shift political dynamics. If enough Americans demand action, Republican lawmakers will be forced to decide whether to stand with Trump or uphold their constitutional duty. Additionally, impeachment is about more than immediate removal—it creates a historical record of misconduct and can influence legal and electoral consequences. Even if conviction seems unlikely, fighting for accountability is essential to preserving democracy.
If Trump is impeached and convicted, what happens next?
If the House votes to impeach Trump and the Senate votes to convict him, he would be immediately removed from office. The Senate could then hold a separate vote to disqualify him from ever holding office again, ensuring he cannot run for president in the future. Additionally, once out of office, Trump would lose presidential immunity, meaning state and federal prosecutors could pursue criminal charges against him without legal protections.
Are impeachment efforts just partisan ‘lawfare,’ or are they legitimate attempts to hold Trump accountable?
Holding a president accountable for criminal acts, constitutional violations, and abuses of power is not “lawfare”—it is the constitutional duty of Congress. Trump’s actions—such as illegally withholding congressionally approved funds, firing independent watchdogs without legal notice, and attempting to override constitutional protections—are violations of U.S. law, not political disagreements. The impeachment process exists precisely for situations like this, where a president has demonstrated a blatant disregard for the law and the principles of democracy.
If Congress refuses to remove Trump, is there any other way to hold him accountable?
Yes. Even if impeachment fails, Trump can still face criminal prosecution at the state and federal level, civil lawsuits, and Congressional investigations. Additionally, the 25th Amendment allows the Vice President and Cabinet to declare him unfit for office if his actions endanger national security. Beyond legal avenues, public activism and electoral pressure can push Congress to act—or lay the groundwork for his removal through the next election.
If Trump is convicted by Congress, can his Vice President, J.D. Vance, pardon him once sworn in as the new President?
No. A presidential pardon only applies to criminal cases and does not overturn an impeachment conviction. If Trump is impeached and convicted, he would be permanently removed from office, and no future president—including J.D. Vance—could reinstate him. However, if Trump faces criminal charges after impeachment, a future president could technically pardon him for those offenses—but only for federal crimes, not state-level prosecutions.
