Overview
- In a CNN interview, Mike Pence said Democrats would be very likely to impeach President Trump if they retake the House in 2026.
- Pence pointed to the administration’s late‑night operation to arrest Nicolás Maduro and the missed deadline on releasing Jeffrey Epstein files as issues intensifying oversight pressure.
- Trump recently told supporters he expects Democrats would find a reason to impeach him if Republicans lose the midterms.
- Pence referenced Trump’s first impeachment to argue Democrats would pursue proceedings if they control the House.
- Both articles note that any impeachment would face long odds of removal because conviction requires a two‑thirds vote in the Senate.
