Saul Alinsky, in his Rules for Radicals, warned that “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Democrats would do well to heed that advice when it comes to Donald Trump. Having unsuccessfully tried twice to impeach him, they’re still invested in impeachment.
Just the other day, Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff told a town hall crowd that Trump “has already exceeded any prior standard for impeachment” because of his meme coin contest. Of course, all candidates now offer contests, and Trump hasn’t yet sold access to the Lincoln bedroom, but none of that matters to Democrats.
Rep. Shri Thanedar (D. MI) is unimpressed with mere promises of future impeachments. He wants impeachment now. And so he’s acted, introducing in Congress Articles of Impeachment against Trump that list several things that Thandedar thinks justify giving the people’s elected president the boot from the White House. Thanedar’s site summarizes them this way:
The resolution includes seven articles of impeachment outlining a range of constitutional violations:
1. Obstruction of Justice and Abuse of Executive Power: Including denial of due process, unlawful deportations, defiance of court orders, and misuse of the Department of Justice.
2. Usurpation of Appropriations Power: For dismantling congressionally established agencies and impounding federal funds.
3. Abuse of Trade Powers and International Aggression: Including imposing economically damaging tariffs and threatening military invasion against sovereign nations.
4. Violation of First Amendment Rights: Through retaliatory actions against critics, media, and attorneys exercising constitutionally protected speech.
5. Creation of an Unlawful Office: By establishing the Department of Government Efficiency (“DOGE”) and unlawfully empowering Elon Musk to unilaterally violate the Constitution.
6. Bribery and Corruption: Involving dismissing criminal cases, soliciting foreign emoluments, and extortionate settlements for personal and political gain.
7. Tyrannical Overreach: Seeking to consolidate unchecked power, erode civil liberties, and defy constitutional limits on presidential authority.
In other words, Thanedar dislikes Trump’s policies, and someone gave him a bunch of big words to throw around.
In a pre-modern era, when you disliked the elected president’s policies, you’d work to win back Congress and the White House via genuine democratic processes, such as offering Americans intelligent, viable policies and doing the hard work of door-to-door campaigning. Nowadays, in the Democrat world of “democracy,” it means using threats of violence and the abuse of law and process to destroy a sitting president.
Needless to say, every one of Thanedars claims is ludicrous, but I want to focus on the man behind the Articles of Impeachment. For a visual, this is Shri Thanedar:
Wikipedia (which is always favorable to Dems) has more on him, and it doesn’t paint a pretty picture. Here are my takeaways:
Thanedar was born and educated through his Master’s degree in India, coming to America when he was 24 to get a PhD. He’s been an American citizen since 1988.
Not long after, he bought a company called Chemir. By 2005, the company had $16 million in annual revenues and 160 employees. Thanedar borrowed $24 million from Bank of America to buy seven more companies, one of which—Azopharma—grew very big, very fast. Eventually, he was living like a king.
However, the recession hit hard, and Bank of America forced Azopharma into bankruptcy. A research facility was closed so abruptly that, per former employees who broke in trying to save them, the beagles inside, in Fauci-esque fashion, were left to starve. Thanedar has denied this.
Meanwhile, Chemir remained profitable so that, when the company sold for $23 million, Thanedar paid off his debt to BofA. He went into business with his son, launching Avomeen Analytical Services, which did well. When Thanedar sold his equity in the company, he made bank, later sharing $1.5 million of the proceeds with 50 employees. (Which was a nice thing to do).
Well, except for the fact that Avomeen’s buyer ended up suing, claiming that Thanedar gave them fraudulent information when he sold the company. Thanedar denied the charges, and the suit was eventually settled.
According to Laura Loomer, a tenacious researcher if nothing else, there’ve been other allegations about Thanedar’s business integrity:
DOGEai, which is an “autonomous AI” algorithm X account (yeah, that’s the world in which we live), chimes in:
These financial facts suggest that Thanedar’s Articles of Impeachment are less of a political move and more of a fundraising stunt and a way to deflect attention from possibly problematic financial moves.
The constant efforts to impeach Trump are becoming a drag. Moreover, it seems that Thanedar, dogged by allegations of business fraud and sleazy financial manipulation, is the last person who should be accusing Trump of wrongdoing.

Rep. Shri Thanedar (D. MI) is not a MAN, he is a punk and a traitor to the country. He should be impeached himself and arrested by the end of the day!
