Representative Al Green, a Democrat from Texas, has introduced new articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. The resolution alleges that Trump has failed to uphold his presidential oath of office and has abused the powers of the presidency. Green specifically criticises the operation of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), describing them as "vicious, quota-driven, unaccountable paramilitary police forces." The articles of impeachment name four individuals who were allegedly killed by ICE and CBP in 2026: Renee Good and Alex Pretti in January, and Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Johan Sebastian Duran Guerrero in July. Green's resolution claims these agencies have transgressed with anonymity and secrecy, assaulted people, committed and covered up unjustified killings of civilians with impunity, terrorised communities, and devolved the United States into an authoritative regime. ## Previous impeachment attempts This is not the first time Representative Green has sought to impeach President Trump. He previously filed articles of impeachment in June 2025, which were unsuccessful, failing by a 344-79 vote. Trump has been impeached twice by the House of Representatives during his presidency, though he was acquitted by the Senate on both occasions. ## What the coverage left out None of the right-rated reports below mention the four individuals named in the articles of impeachment as having been killed by ICE and CBP in 2026.
