Read our privacy policy Representative Al Green, a Democrat from Texas, is set to launch his latest impeachment bid against President Donald Trump this week over his plan to “take over” Gaza. Green said he wants to impeach Trump after the president suggested that the U.S. “will take over the Gaza Strip” during a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. open image in gallery Green has described Trump’s plans to “take over the Gaza Strip” - which he revealed during a press conference Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu - as “ethnic cleansing.” Saudi Arabia said it “unequivocally rejected” the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, while U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Palestinians “must be allowed home.” French and German officials also said that any such movement of Palestinians would violate international law. A senior House Democrat, when asked by Axios whether Green’s article might gain traction, simply replied: “No.” White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields hit back at the impeachment plans, and accused Democrats of continuing to “waste their time on publicity stunts that go against the wishes of the American people.” “President Trump was elected in a historic landslide to deliver his America First agenda and keep the promises he made on the campaign trail—Democrats can either get on board or keep losing elections,” Fields said in a statement to The Independent.
