Rep. Al Green (D-TX) believes that Tuesday’s James Comey memo is the last straw, tweeting that he plans to call for the impeachment of President Trump on the floor of Congress Wednesday morning. In the memo, reported on by The New York Times, the former FBI director claims that Trump asked him to stop investigating former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
Today on the floor of the Congress of the United States of America, I will call for the Impeachment of the President between 9am & 10am CST.

Green previewed his impeachment plans during an interview with ABC Wednesday in front of the Capitol.
“The president is not within his rights if he fired Mr. Comey to obstruct justice,” Green said. “He’s not.”.@RepAlGreen to @ABC: "The president is not within his rights...when it comes to obstruction of justice." https://t.co/tTVq2aJqWb pic.twitter.com/dbOh0tKMMr
