Conservatives Praise Josh Hawley Proposal to Dismiss Impeachment Trial
Sen. Hawley said Thursday that he will introduce legislation Monday to dismiss House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. The Missouri senator contended that because Speaker Pelosi has yet to send the articles of impeachment to Congress’s upper chamber, the Senate should dismiss the trial.
“In real world, if prosecution doesn’t proceed with case, it gets dismissed. So on Monday, I will introduce measure to dismiss this bogus impeachment for lack of prosecution,” Sen. Hawley tweeted Thursday.
