Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin leads effort to remove Trump after Capitol riot

Rep. Jamie Raskin’s 25-year-old son, Tommy, killed himself on New Year’s Eve and was buried the following Tuesday. A day later, a violent mob launched a deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol that forced Raskin and his colleagues to evacuate.

Now, the Maryland Democrat and former constitutional law professor is leading the effort to remove President Donald Trump from office for inciting the riot.

He authored a House resolution that calls on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and declare Trump unable to complete his term, which expires next week. Pence ruled out doing that Tuesday night. That leaves the chamber likely to quickly move to articles of impeachment, which Raskin also helped draft.
