In a video posted by Free Speech For People, Ty Cobb Says Congress Has a “Constitutional Obligation” to Act Against “This Lawless President”
WASHINGTON, DC (July 23, 2026) Former Trump White House Special Counsel Ty Cobb publicly called on Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, declaring that the President “must be impeached, removed, and convicted” for what he described as multiple high crimes and warning that Congress has a constitutional duty to act.
In a new video released in support of Free Speech For People’s Impeach Trump Again campaign, Cobb reflected on his experience serving inside the Trump White House and argued that the constitutional remedy of impeachment exists precisely for moments like this.
“The framers of our Constitution put impeachment in the Constitution for exactly the critical moment that we face today in our history,” Cobb said. “They wanted Congress to protect us in the event that we ever had an evil president, a president who is lawless and believes that he is above the law and can do anything that he wants.”
“Ty Cobb’s call for impeachment underscores that this is not a partisan question—it is a constitutional one,” said John Bonifaz, President and Co-Founder of Free Speech For People. “When a former senior lawyer who served inside the Trump White House concludes that President Trump must be impeached, removed, and convicted, Congress should take notice. The evidence of impeachable offenses has continued to grow, and members of Congress must fulfill the oath they swore to support and defend the Constitution.”
“This is an existential moment for our nation and our democracy. We either have a Constitution, or we don’t,” Bonifaz continued. “Donald Trump has already engaged in multiple abuses of power. We demand that our elected officials in Congress carry out the mandate of their oath to protect the Constitution at this critical time by standing up and demanding impeachment proceedings against this lawless president.”
Free Speech For People has documented hundreds of impeachable offenses across 27 separate grounds through its nonpartisan Impeach Trump Again campaign, including:
- Engaging in corruption for his own and his close associates’ personal enrichment
- Committing or planning war and humanitarian crimes
- Unconstitutionally usurping Congress’s power to declare war
- Committing treason by levying war against the United States, individual states, and their people
- Calling for the execution of members of Congress
- Abusing the power of his office to unlawfully maintain political power
- Illegally kidnapping, imprisoning, and removing U.S. residents
- Unconstitutionally and systemically violating the First Amendment
- Defying court orders, threatening judges, and unconstitutionally usurping judicial authority
- Abusing investigatory and prosecutorial powers
