Senator joins group of far-left lawmakers who think Trump has — again — committed impeachable offenses
Sen. John Ossoff of Georgia has become the latest Democrat in Congress to signal that President Donald Trump deserves to be impeached, even though he has only been in the White House this term for less than 100 days.
During a town hall Friday in Cobb County, Georgia, Ossoff took questions from the audience, including from a fired-up local mother who questioned Ossoff about why there has not been a more concerted effort to impeach Trump.
«Why are there no calls for impeachment?» Ossoff was asked. «Do something more!»

Ossoff told the woman at the top of his response that «there is no doubt» Trump has exceeded the standard for impeachment.

«I saw just 48 hours ago, [Trump] is granting audiences to people who buy his meme coin,» Ossoff said. «There is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense. And the reality is that that’s just one of many [examples] — defying a federal court order, for example. So, I agree with you.»
Ossoff’s remarks make him the latest Democratic lawmaker in Congress who has either explicitly called for Trump’s impeachment or signaled their willingness to support such a move just 100 days into his presidency. While most Democrats have been willing to publicly admit the country is facing a constitutional crisis under Trump, most of them have refrained from going so far as to use the «I» word.

Some though, such as progressive Sen. Al Green, D-Texas, have not shied away from supporting calls for impeachment. He was the first congressional lawmaker to call for it just weeks into the president’s second term. Green’s calls have been supported by other Democrats, such as Reps. Suzanne Bonamici and Maxine Dexter of Oregon; Sam Liccardo and Maxine Waters of California; Ilhan Omar of Minnesota; Shri Thanedar of Michigan; and Hank Johnson of Georgia, all of whom have gone publicly on the record regarding their support, according to NBC News.
«Right now, it’s 218 to 215, so if you can find me two Republicans, I’ll go to work tomorrow,» Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., who led impeachment efforts against Trump during his first term, told a reporter when asked about the matter.

Trent England, a presidential elections expert and founder of the nonprofit Save Our States, bashed Democratic lawmakers for «claiming to be all about democracy,» but when they don’t get what they want, «suddenly democracy is not what they’re all about.»
«It really undercuts Democrats’ message about elections when as soon as they get an election result they don’t like, they’re out challenging it through impeachment. Especially when Democrats claimed after 2016 that part of their issue with Trump was that he only won the Electoral College,» England added. «Well, now he’s won a resounding popular vote, in addition to winning the Electoral College. And, yet, they’re still out there trying to impeach him at the very beginning of his administration.»
REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: IMPEACHAPALOOZA IS HERE TO STAY
England also opined that the calls for impeachment were an easy way for Democrats to help boost their fundraising efforts.
«Efforts like this show how a lot of members of Congress are really operating as personal fundraising machines, as opposed to legislators,» England said. «They’re not trying to get things done. They know that using platforms like Act Blue, they can fly the impeachment flag and raise a lot of money from left-wing donors without ever believing that any of this is going to have any effect.»
The first-term Democratic senator is facing re-election later this year, as his term ends early next year. Ossoff’s office declined to comment for this story.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman Tim Scott said Ossoff’s push for impeachment illustrates «the desperation of his re-election campaign.»
«Not even 100 days into President Donald J. Trump’s terms, and Ossoff is already pushing impeachment,» Scott said. «His obsession makes clear just how out of touch he is with Georgia voters. The desperation in his re-election campaign is already showing.»

Gavin Newsom mocked for tech issues during anti-Trump address to Californians: ‘Absolute fail’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
California Gov. Gavin Newsom is being mocked online for an «embarrassing» televised address on Tuesday night that experienced several technology meltdowns, resulting in the governor not being audible for parts of his speech.
In a prerecorded message, Newsom, a Democrat rumored to have presidential aspirations, harshly condemned President Donald Trump’s «brazen abuse of power» by using the military to respond to the ongoing anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles. He also said that those who engage in violence will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
«This isn’t just about protests here in Los Angeles,» Newsom said in the video. «This is about all of us. This is about you. California may be first, but it clearly will not end here. Other states are next. Democracy is next. Democracy is under assault before our eyes.»
His address, however, was inhibited by several technical issues, which resulted in his audio being cut off and distorted several times.

Noting the meltdown on X, David Freeman, a conservative political commentator, mocked «Gavin Newsom’s staff can’t even set up a stream properly as his ‘Major Announcement’ has NO AUDIO.»
«If they can’t do this correct, what makes anyone believe they can run California at all? EMBARRASSING!» said Freeman.
«UTTER CALAMITY,» commented Link Lauren, a political commentator and former senior advisor to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Kevin Dalton, a popular conservative influencer, commented, «Gavin Newsom’s ‘Major Address to Californians’ was a prerecorded video that was initially streamed without audio. After several minutes, a new color corrected version of the same video with actual audio was started. What an absolute fail.»

Another popular conservative social media account, The Washington Observer, commented: «Sean Hannity is desperately trying to play Gavin Newsom’s speech — but he can’t, because Newsom’s audio is melting down for the third time tonight.»
Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., who observed the audio issues in real time on the «Sean Hannity Show,» also chimed in, saying, «So, I went on Sean Hannity to react to Gavin Newsom’s speech. Turns out, it was a total mess. Disorganized. Bad audio.»
Mullin quipped, «But, what else should we expect from this poor excuse for a leader?»
White House assistant to the president and director of communications Steven Cheung also piled onto the criticism, accusing Newsom of spending time creating the video rather than serving as governor. Likewise, Cheung took a swipe at the video’s audio, claiming the production quality was akin to Newsom’s leadership.
«Gavin NewScum spent all this time–instead of doing his actual job– preparing for a webinar just for the audio to not work,» Cheung said in a post on X late Tuesday evening. «The production quality is just like his leadership quality– s—ty.»

Deputy assistant to the president and principal deputy communications director Alex Pfeiffer responded to Newsom’s speech by saying that rather than Trump, «California is trying to subvert democracy.»

«American voters elected President Donald Trump to carry out his agenda, which includes enforcing the immigration laws passed by their elected representatives,» said Pfeiffer.
In response, Newsom’s press office referred Fox News Digital to a Tuesday night X post, which acknowledged the issues by saying, «Sorry for the momentary silence earlier — our stream briefly went under Trump-era transparency rules.»
