Rep. Don Bacon Criticizes GOP Plans to Expunge Trump Impeachments
Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) has voiced his opposition to a GOP proposal to expunge the impeachments of former President Donald Trump, suggesting that Republicans should prioritize other legislative issues. Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has discussed the expungement with Trump and allies, but critics argue that there is no constitutional basis for such an action. The political implications of revisiting Trump's impeachments are significant, especially given the narrow Republican majority in the House.
