Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett has vowed to initiate an impeachment investigation into Presidentย Donald Trumpย if she is elected to lead the House Oversight Committee. Crockett is vying for the committee’s ranking member position in a June 24 election and would chair if Democrats retake the House in the 2026 midterms.
She aims to investigate Trump’s business dealings, alleged pressure on institutions, cryptocurrency activities and pardons given to political allies. Crockett affirmed she would certainly initiate an impeachment inquiry, underscoring the Oversight Committee’s authority to conduct such investigations even if they do not lead to formal impeachment votes.
Her campaign highlights her legal expertise, and she frames the inquiry as a means to ensure truth, signaling ongoing clashes with Trump and GOP opposition.
