Democrats' anger over President Donald Trump's weekend operation in Venezuela is now turning into demands for his impeachment by some members of the party's leftmost flank.
Several progressives have now called for proceedings against Trump after the administration carried out strikes in Caracas and captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife.
"Many Americans woke up to a sick sense of déjà vu. Under the guise of liberty, an administration of warmongers has lied to justify an invasion and is dragging us into an illegal, endless war so they can extract resources and expand their wealth," Rep. Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., a member of the House's "Squad," posted on X over the weekend.
