Has trump been impeached for the third time
Executive summary
As of the documents and reporting in the provided sources, the U.S. House has multiple resolutions filed in 2025 that would impeach President Donald J. Trump — including H.Res.353 and H.Res.537 — but the House had not completed a vote to impeach him a third time in the materials shown here (Congress.gov entries list resolutions but do not show final passage) [1] [2]. Multiple news and opinion pieces from 2025 discuss active efforts and the political dynamics around a possible third impeachment, noting such efforts so far have been introduced by individual Democrats and are politically constrained by a Republican House majority [3] [4] [5].
1. Impeachment paperwork exists, but passage is not confirmed
Multiple formal articles and resolutions to impeach President Trump appear in the congressional record for the 119th Congress, notably H.Res.353 and the text of H.Res.537, which explicitly state “Resolved, That Donald J. Trump… is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors” [1] [2]. Those documents demonstrate that members of the House have drafted and filed impeachment measures in 2025 [1] [2]. Available sources do not mention a completed House vote or a Senate conviction on a third impeachment in the materials provided.
2. Who’s introducing articles and why — competing narratives
Individual Democrats — for example, Representative Shri Thanedar and Representative Al Green — have publicly introduced articles in 2025 alleging obstruction, bribery, abuses of power and other charges, framing them as accountability for actions they describe as unconstitutional or corrupt [6] [7] [5]. Advocacy groups such as Free Speech For People have assembled long lists of alleged grounds for impeachment and launched public campaigns to pressure Congress [7]. Opinion and analysis pieces argue the actions of 2025 could form a strong factual case for impeachment, while legal and political strategists caution that impeachment is inherently political and may be used symbolically even if conviction is unlikely [3] [8] [9].
3. The hard political wall: House and Senate math matter
Several analysts and news outlets emphasize that Democrats’ ability to impeach depends on controlling the House; Republicans controlled the House at points in 2025, making movement on articles unlikely to advance into a full House vote or a Senate trial [10] [4]. Even if the House were to impeach, conviction in the Senate would require a two-thirds majority — a threshold commentators repeatedly note is unlikely given existing Senate composition and past acquittals of Trump [10] [11] [4].
4. Past precedent shapes expectations for a third attempt
Reporting and background pieces place any 2025 efforts in the context of Trump’s two prior impeachments (December 2019 and January 2021), noting those charges and outcomes — including the Senate’s acquittal in the second trial with a 57–43 vote — as precedent for how partisan and procedural limits can shape outcomes [11]. Analysts cite that history to explain why House members may pursue articles of impeachment even when removal is unlikely: to document alleged abuses and influence public debate [3] [8].
5. Messaging and electoral strategy are driving factors
Republican strategists and some reporting explicitly link the impeachment debate to midterm and future campaigns: Republicans have been framing the threat of a third impeachment as a galvanizing issue for their base, while Democrats see the potential for impeachment if they regain a House majority in 2026 [4] [12]. Newsweek and other outlets report polling, market odds, and pundit commentary that show impeachment’s perceived likelihood shifts with electoral prospects [12] [13].
6. What’s missing and limitations of current reporting
The sources supplied include bill texts, filings, commentary, and media reports through 2025, but they do not provide a definitive record in these snippets that the House completed a vote impeaching Trump a third time or that the Senate held a third impeachment trial resulting in conviction or acquittal [1] [2]. Concrete vote counts, dates of final House action, or Senate trial outcomes for a third impeachment are not found in the current reporting provided here; therefore I do not assert that a third impeachment occurred beyond the introductions and filings documented in these sources.
Bottom line: The record in these sources shows multiple filed articles and active efforts in 2025 to impeach President Trump a third time, but it does not show a completed House impeachment vote or a Senate conviction on a third set of articles; political realities (House majority, Senate math) and strategic calculations heavily shape whether those filed measures will advance [1] [2] [4] [11].
