House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries says Democrats have not ruled out pursuing impeachment of President Donald Trump, if they win control of the House in November’s midterm elections. Speaking on ABC’s “This Week,” Jeffries told host George Stephanopoulos that Democrats are leaving the possibility open.
Both outlets report Jeffries’ response to a question about whether he would rule out impeachment efforts. Jeffries says, “we haven’t ruled anything in and we haven’t ruled anything out,” indicating that the question of impeachment remains unsettled pending potential changes in House leadership. The Hill frames the statement as conditional on Democrats taking back the House, while Breitbart highlights Jeffries’ broader refusal to rule out either direction—implying the party is keeping its options open.
Neither source provides further details about specific allegations, investigations, or timing for any potential impeachment process. The statements focus on congressional strategy and the Democratic caucus’s position rather than the underlying facts of any case.
