The speaker of the United States House of Representatives has launched an official impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump. Nancy Pelosi made the announcement Tuesday after meeting with House Democratic Party leaders. The investigation will seek to learn whether Trump sought a foreign government's help with his 2020 re-election effort. That question centers on a telephone call Trump had with Ukraine’s leader in late July. Media reports have said that Trump asked President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate Democratic Party presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter. Speaker Pelosi said such a request would mark a betrayal of his oath of office. She added, "No one is above the law."
