A local political party does not, under the Constitution, have the power to impeach the president of the United States. But that doesn’t mean they’re not going to try.

The Libertarian Party of Travis County, Tex., has passed a resolution calling for the impeachment and removal from office of President Donald Trump.

As posted on the party’s Facebook page, resolution lists several “whereas” examples, most of them related to the president’s deportations, including the administration’s failure to retrieve Kilmar Abrego Garcia from a prison in El Salvador, despite court rulings.

“Whereas, President Donald J. Trump took an oath of office to ‘preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States,’ with no obvious intention of doing so,” the post concludes, “Therefore, be it resolved, that the Libertarian Party of Travis County calls for the impeachment of President Donald J. Trump and his removal from office.”
