'She's always demonstrated leadership that takes all kind of factors into account. Legally I don't think it's something that can ever be 100 percent off the table, but if that's how she feels right now I respect that,' Ocasio-Cortez told reporters on Monday, The Hill reports.
Hours after Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi reaffirmed her stance on not impeaching President Donald Trump freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded to say she respected the Speaker's position, but didn't think removing Trump from office would ever be completely"off the table."
In speaking to The Washington Post, Pelosi said that Trump was"just not worth it" in regards to Congress removing him from office. The California congresswoman has said before that she didn't think impeachment was the right move, but Monday's report from the Post are some of the most definitive comments Pelosi has made on the issue.
"I think every single colleague of mine agrees there's impeachable offenses. That's one thing that we all agree on. We may disagree on the pace," Tlaib said in a March 6 press conference announcing her plan. Her announcement followed news from House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler that an investigation had been opened into Trump's campaign, businesses and administration.
