Exclusive: Al Green on Trump Impeachment Push—"Don't Wait" for "Tanks"

  • On March 4, 2025, Representative Al Green, a Democrat from Texas, was forcibly removed from the House chamber in Washington, D.C., after he shouted and waved his cane during the President’s annual address to Congress.
  • Green began pursuing impeachment proceedings over concerns about Trump’s escalating authoritarian behavior, emphasizing the urgency of acting before a full-blown crisis—such as military forces deploying through U.S. Cities—could occur.
  • Despite warnings from Democratic colleagues to focus on policy, Green pressed forward with impeachment articles, arguing that waiting could lead to a constitutional crisis and devolution of democracy.
  • A resolution censuring Green passed with ten Democrats joining Republicans, and Democratic strategist David Axelrod called Green's outburst "despicable," while Senator John Fetterman called it "a sad cavalcade of self-owns."
  • Green vowed to continue pursuing impeachment votes as a moral duty to protect democracy, regardless of opposition or the likelihood of success in the House.
