Rep. Mikie Sherrill, D-N.J., is causing a stir by proposing a third impeachment of President Donald Trump, ought to the 2026 midterms, with the ultimate goal of snagging the New Jersey governorship.
"You gotta test yourself, right?" Sherrill told her supporters during a campaign shindig at Ridgeway Volunteer Fire Company Station 34 in Manchester Township on April 26, as per the New York Post. The 53-year-old congresswoman, who won the hotly contested 11th congressional district during the 2018 midterms, has a history of voting in favor of both of Trump's impeachments during his previous term.
At her recent event last week, when a supporter interjected "Do it again!", leading to laughter from the crowd, Sherrill couldn't help but agree, "Yeah, exactly. We'll see. Maybe we'll go for the trifecta."
When asked about her potential stance on Chinese investments, Sherrill took a harsh stance against China, promising to crack down on Chinese influence in the U.S. This sharp pivot, considering her previous investments in China[1], raises interesting questions about her foreign policy and potential hypocrisy.
Meanwhile, Rep. Shri Thanedar, D-Mich., has filed articles of impeachment against Trump for several alleged crimes, including eliminating federal programs without congressional authorization, violating First Amendment rights, and ignoring court orders to facilitate the return of a Mexican national detained by El Salvador's government.
According to Thanedar, Trump's actions have compromised the justice system, violated the separation of powers, and prioritized personal interests over public service.
Sherrill explained how Democrat-led states can challenge Trump's agenda, claiming she was on the floor during the Capitol riots, when Trump exhibited no intentions of vacating the White House after his term ends. "It's up to us, folks, to make sure we're there, mobilizing, bringing people together as he's trying to divide us apart, finding ways to block him at the state level," she said, adding that it's all about fighting for federalism—state's rights[5].
Fun Fact: Representative Sherrill has attracted criticism from political adversaries who argue that her focus on national issues like impeachment overshadows her attention to local New Jersey concerns[2]. In the upcoming Democrat primary on June 10, Sherrill will be up against tough competitors such as Rep. Josh Gottheimer, Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, former Montclair mayor Sean Spiller, and former state Senate president Stephen Sweeney[3].
