NEW<\/span>You can now listen to Fox News articles!\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n Rep. John Larson, D-Conn., is mounting a longshot bid to impeach President Donald Trump<\/a> as he stares down a primary threat from younger challengers, who seek to thwart his bid for a 15th House term.\u00a0<\/p>\n Larson, 77, introduced 13 articles of impeachment against Trump on Monday, citing the president\u2019s military intervention in Venezuela, the deployment of National Guard troops to cities across the country and his executive order to curtail birthright citizenship, among other charges.<\/p>\n Larson also charged Trump with “murder, war crimes and piracy” for ordering a naval blockade around Venezuela targeting U.S.-sanctioned oil tankers ahead of the U.S. capture of Venezuelan President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro<\/a> in January and for launching dozens of strikes against alleged drug trafficking vessels in the Eastern Pacific and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n “Through his serial usurpation of the congressional war power and commission of murder, war crimes, and piracy, Donald J. Trump has acted contrary to his trust as President and subversive of constitutional government, to the great prejudice of law, liberty, and justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States,” the resolution reads in part.<\/p>\n COMPLEX PARTIAL SEIZURE RULED AS CAUSE OF PAUSING EPISODE DURING HOUSE FLOOR SPEECH, DEM CONGRESSMAN SAYS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Venezuelan acting President Delcy Rodriguez speaks under a framed image of former President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores, during a ceremony marking the opening of the new judicial year at the Supreme Tribunal of Justice in Caracas, Venezuela, Friday, Jan. 30, 2026.<\/span> (Ariana Cubillos\/AP)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The resolution has little chance of advancing in the Republican-controlled House or resulting in a Senate trial, even if Larson chooses to force a vote when lawmakers return the week of April 13.<\/p>\n However, Larson\u2019s impeachment push comes as the septuagenarian congressman faces a heated primary challenge from several younger candidates running on a mantle of generational change.<\/p>\n Larson, a senior member of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, notably suffered a complex partial seizure<\/u><\/a> while delivering a speech on the House floor in February 2025.<\/p>\n VOCAL ANTI-TRUMP DEM REVEALS WHICH INDUSTRY IS TRYING TO OUST HIM FROM HOUSE SEAT: ‘I WAS A TARGET’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Primary challenger Luke Bronin, 46, a former Hartford mayor and military veteran, has called on Larson to step aside after nearly three decades in the House. Bronin, who is backed by Democratic-aligned veterans groups, outraised Larson during the first two months after launching his insurgent campaign in 2025.<\/p>\n It is unclear whether Larson\u2019s impeachment push is supported by House Democratic leadership. A spokesperson for House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n Larson is the latest in a string of House Democrats to introduce articles of impeachment<\/a> against Trump since he began his second term.<\/p>\n Representative Hakeem Jeffries, a Democrat from New York, during a news conference at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, US, on Thursday, March 19, 2026.<\/span> (Daniel Heuer\/Bloomberg)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Trump has repeatedly warned that Democrats will attempt to impeach him for a third time if the party retakes control of the House chamber in 2027.<\/p>\n Former House Speaker Nancy <\/u><\/a>Pelosi<\/u> <\/a>did not rule out that possibility during an interview with MS NOW last week, but added that Democrats would focus on addressing cost-of-living issues.<\/p>\n Fox News Digital reached out to Larson and the White House for comment.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n![\"Delcy](\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1200\/675\/venezuela-delcy-rodriguez-january-2026.jpg?ve=1&tl=1\")
