Democrats are expected to unveil two articles of impeachment against President Trump on Tuesday that will focus on abuse of power and obstructing Congress, and would be voted on by the full House next week, according to three officials familiar with the matter.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) met with Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) and other committee chairmen Monday night after a nine-hour hearing in which a Democratic counsel laid out the party’s case against Trump. The three officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the private talks, cautioned that the plan had not been finalized.

Leaving a meeting with Pelosi, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot L. Engel (D-N.Y.) told reporters that he and the chairmen of other House committees would announce specific articles at a news conference at 9 a.m. Tuesday.

10 instances where Trump attempted to block the Mueller Investigation . Michael Cohen is serving time , in part, for his role in the hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels . That was another attempt by Trump to fix the 2016 Election in his favor . Historians will be shocked that Trump was only held to account for the Ukraine Affair . Let the GOP defend the full extent of Trump's criminality - even if it takes more time to do so .
