The House of Representatives shut down an impeachment effort against President Trump brought by Rep. Al Green (D-TX). The House tabled the measure in a 344-79 vote. 128 Democrats joined with the GOP to block the effort. UPDATE: Deranged Rep Al Green’s impeachment attempt was just SHOT DOWN in the House Only 79 Democrats voted with him. What a total loser https://t.co/iaXI5H27eb pic.twitter.com/nDPkG9xkBF — Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) June 24, 2025 Fox News reports: Liberals who joined Republicans include all three members of House Democratic leadership – House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, R-N.Y., House Minority Whip Katherine Clark, D-Mass., and House Democratic Caucus Chairman Pete Aguilar, D-Calif., voted to table the measure. Green, who has threatened to impeach Trump before, said his latest bid is aimed at the president’s strikes on Iran from over the weekend. “I did not come to Congress to be a bystander while a president abuses power and devolves American democracy into authoritarianism with himself as an authoritarian president,” Green said in a statement Tuesday morning. “President Trump’s unauthorized bombing of Iran constitutes a de facto declaration of war. No president has the right to drag this nation into war without the authorization of the people’s representatives.” Other progressives, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., called for Trump’s impeachment over the strikes in Iran. BREAKING: 128 Democrats vote against Al Green’s Articles of Impeachment against President Trump.

President Trump Blasts AOC After She Called For Him To Be Impeached From the Washington Examiner: Many Democrats, including those in leadership, have brushed off their caucus members’ attempts for an impeachment inquiry as a waste of time that will go nowhere. House Democrats have twice impeached Trump during his first term, only for him to be acquitted by the Senate. Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) also planned for a vote on his impeachment resolution, but pulled the vote after pressure from leadership and once it became clear he would not have his caucus’s support. Green’s resolution, which he offered Tuesday, called for an impeachment inquiry due to Trump’s authorization of the bombing of three nuclear sites in Iran. “Donald J. Trump has abused the powers of the presidency in a manner contrary to his trust as president [and] has become a threat to American democracy,” Green said in a floor speech prior to the vote, accusing Trump of bypassing the Constitution by neglecting to seek congressional approval. The White House earlier Tuesday criticized Green’s fourth impeachment attempt. “President Trump was able to quickly accomplish what no other President has been able to achieve – thanks to his ‘peace through strength’ leadership, Iran’s nuclear program has been obliterated and a ceasefire has been agreed to,” White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers said. “Eliminating the prospect of nuclear war is a non-partisan and unifying accomplishment that everyone should celebrate as a historic moment for the United States, the Middle East, and the entire world.”

NEW YORK (Reuters) — Wall Street advanced on Tuesday as investors welcomed a fragile truce with Israel and Iran while parsing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s congressional testimony for clues regarding the U.S. central bank’s path forward. All three major U.S. stock indexes were on track for their second straight session of solid gains following U.S. missile strikes on Iran’s uranium enrichment assets. The benchmark S&P 500 was less than 1% below its all-time closing high reached on February 19. Late Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire agreement, but then on Tuesday, the president stepped in to urge Israel to stand down on a retaliatory attack on Iran after Iran killed at least four people in an attack in southern Israel targeting civilians just before the ceasefire went into effect. Still, investors viewed the ceasefire as a sign of de-escalating tensions. “The market has learned very precisely over the last generation that any time there’s a geopolitical flare-up in the Middle East that affects U.S. financial markets, those effects will be short-lived,” said Scott Ladner, chief investment officer at Horizon in Charlotte, North Carolina. “The ceasefire is just cementing that view,” Ladner added. Crude prices slid on waning supply concerns related to the conflict, dragging energy shares lower. Powell, speaking before the U.S. House of Representatives Financial Services Committee, reiterated his view that rate cuts can wait until the economic effects of tariff increases are better known, adding “we are well positioned to wait to learn more about the likely course of the economy before considering any adjustments to our policy stance.” Financial markets have been pricing in a more than 20% likelihood that the Fed will lower its key interest rate at the conclusion of its upcoming July policy meeting, and a near 70% probability that its first rate cut will land in September. “We think September’s very likely and we think while July is not a zero probability event, it’s definitely a long shot,” Ladner said. On the economic front, Consumer Confidence deteriorated this month, with pessimism toward the jobs market falling to its lowest level since March 2021. The Commerce Department is expected to release its final take on first-quarter GDP on Thursday, and on Friday its closely watched Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report will shed light on inflation, consumer spending and income growth. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 513.96 points, or 1.21%, to 43,095.74, the S&P 500 gained 71.64 points, or 1.19%, to 6,096.94, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 305.28 points, or 1.56%, to 19,936.25. Among the 11 major sectors of the S&P 500, Tech shares led the gainers, while energy stocks were the sole decliners. Among megacap stocks, Tesla shares shed 2.0%. Airline stocks gained altitude amid cooling Middle East tensions. The S&P 1500 Airlines index advanced 2.3%. But defense stocks lost ground, with Lockheed Martin and RTX Corp both off about 2.9%. Shares of crypto companies rose after bitcoin hit a one-week high. Coinbase Global and Strategy advanced 11.7% and 3.8% respectively. Broadcom touched a record high, after HSBC raised the semiconductor manufacturer to “buy” from “hold”. The stock was last up 3.4%. Package delivery firm FedEx is expected to report quarterly results after the closing bell. Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by a 3.38-to-1 ratio on the NYSE. There were 195 new highs and 49 new lows on the NYSE. On the Nasdaq, 3,430 stocks rose and 1,007 fell as advancing issues outnumbered decliners by a 3.41-to-1 ratio. The S&P 500 posted 18 new 52-week highs and no new lows while the Nasdaq Composite recorded 109 new highs and 49 new lows.

Ex-White House Staff Secretary and Director of the Domestic Policy Council Neera Tanden was told that executive privilege is “not justified” in her testimony on Tuesday for a congressional investigation into former President Joe Biden’s mental state and whether he authorized the use of autopen signatures for major executive actions. Gary Lawkowski, the deputy counsel to President Donald Trump, wrote to Tanden on the same day she appeared before the GOP-led House Oversight Committee for a closed-door interview. The letter, reported by Semafor, said the “extraordinary nature” of the inquiry permitted an “accommodation” for Congress and noted that the White House counsel was not requesting that an agency counsel be permitted to attend. “[T]he President authorizes you to provide unrestricted testimony to the House Oversight Committee, irrespective of potential privilege,” Lawkowski wrote. Still, Tanden was advised that she was not given the go-ahead to disclose classified information or any other details that would violate the law or court orders, according to a footnote in the letter. Tanden is one of several top former staffers in Biden’s White House who are scheduled to speak with the House Oversight Committee over the next several weeks. The others include former Assistant to the President and Senior Advisor to the First Lady Anthony Bernal, Former Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Director of Oval Office Operations Ashley Williams, and Former Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief of Staff Annie Tomasini. Chairman James Comer (R-KY), who demanded their testimony, has also subpoenaed former White House physician Kevin O’Connor. “I think there is a huge level of curiosity in the press corps with respect to who was calling the shots in the Biden administration,” Comer told reporters before the interview with Tanden. “So this is the first of many people we’re going to bring in to try to get the answers for the American people.” Lawkowski suggested that executive privilege would be waived for the other former Biden White House staffers and contended that Trump’s view on the matter is “consistent with the practice established under” the previous administration. In her opening statement, obtained by Axios, Tanden noted that in her role as staff secretary from October 2021 to May 2023, she was authorized to direct autopen signatures for “certain categories” of documents — part of a system “inherited” from prior administrations. She denied having any further role in the use of the autopen while serving as head of the Domestic Policy Council from May 2023 until the end of Biden’s term. Tanden also emphasized that her “cooperation should not be taken to mean that I think the Committee’s ‘investigation’ is a worthy subject.” She added that Biden was “in command as President” and claimed not to have any “experience in the White House” that would raise doubts about his ability to lead. Democrats have dismissed the House Oversight Committee’s probe as baseless. “The only thing extraordinary that came out of that deposition was it was an extraordinary waste of time,” Rep. Wesley Bell (D-MO) told reporters. Biden, now 82, abandoned his 2024 re-election bid following a faltering debate against now-President Trump amid pressure from allies. A new book by journalists Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson on Biden’s “decline” and the “cover-up,” alongside the former president’s recent “aggressive” prostate cancer diagnosis and the release of audio from special counsel Robert Hur’s interview with him, has intensified scrutiny. Senate Republicans are looking into Biden’s mental fitness as well. Trump ordered a separate investigation into whether aides improperly used an autopen for executive actions in an effort to conceal Biden’s health issues, suggesting there could be “implications” for the legality and validity of the presidential acts in question. Biden has pushed back on the notion that he did not dictate his executive actions. “Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency. I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false,” Biden said in a statement. “This is nothing more than a distraction by Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans.”
