\"\"HuffingtoPpost<\/b> – Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) signaled her support for impeaching President Donald Trump if evidence emerges confirming the worst accusations against him.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Jezebel published on Thursday, Warren emphasized that she is awaiting the results of a thorough inquiry into Trump\u2019s conduct.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolutely. You know, how could we not?\u201d Warren said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s be clear: In the past, there has been strong bipartisan agreement that obstruction of justice is an impeachable offense,\u201d she added. \u201cThat\u2019s not a Democratic position or a Republican conviction, it is a bipartisan position. And if the facts that are currently alleged are proven, then we should take the next step.\u201d<\/p>\n
