Dem Rep. Green calls off Trump impeachment push, after Vegas 🔫 massacre

Texas Rep. Al Green said Monday that he canceled plans to file a resolution this week calling for President Trump's impeachment, in light of the mass shooting in Las Vegas.

Green said on the House floor that there is a time for all things but right now is a time to mourn, after a lone gunman killed at least 58 people and wounded more than 500 others at a concert Sunday night on the Vegas strip.

“Impeachment is postponed. … Let us mourn. Let us heal,” said Green, allowing fellow House Democrats to avoid a potentially risky vote for now.

Green had teed up his resolution during a floor speech last week, condemning Trump’s attacks on NFL players who kneel during the national anthem.

He vowed to file the impeachment articles, without saying on what grounds he would file them.
