Such conduct may violate the Emoluments Clause, which bans federal officials from profiting via domestic or foreign sources without Congress’s approval. That’s constitutional grounds for impeachment and disqualification from office. #impeachment #citizenimpeachment

Oh Grassley... You could have had a better answer here. The answer is, "I will vote for Articles of Impeachment when the House brings them to the Senate." Even Republican Iowegians know tyranny when they see it. #chuckgrassley #iowa #senate #impeach #citizenimpeachment
