House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says Trump has abused his power

Supplied video obtained Friday, December 6, 2019, of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announcing that the US House of Representatives will proceed with articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. "The facts are uncontested," she says. "The president abused his power for his own personal political benefit at the expense of our national security by withholding military aid and crucial Oval Office meeting in exchange for an announcement of an investigation into his political rival." "The president leaves us no choice but to act because he is trying to corrupt once again the election for his own benefit. "The president has engaged in abuse of power, undermining our national security and jeopardizing the integrity of our elections. His actions are in defiance of the vision of our Founders and the oath of office that he takes to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." (AAP VIDEO/Supplied/Nancy Pelosi)
