Although the articles of impeachment don’t mention special counsel Robert Mueller by name, the Trump-Russia allegations underpin both accusations of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, whose committee became responsible for drafting and passing the articles of impeachment following weeks of Ukraine-centered testimony and investigations spearheaded by the House Intelligence Committee, spent the months following the Mueller report’s release strongly hinting at a Russia-related impeachment — especially connected to the 10 instances of possible obstruction of justice laid out by the special counsel after his two-year investigation. The New York Democrat reportedly sought to include a third article of impeachment directly connected to Mueller’s investigation, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat, put her foot down.
