"The evidence of the president's misconduct is overwhelming and uncontested." House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said Tuesday.

"The president's continuing abuse of power has left us no choice," said Schiff.

The House Judiciary Committee, which is responsible for writing articles of impeachment, is expected to vote on the articles on Thursday and a full House vote will take place next week, multiple local media outlets predicted.

Trump will be impeached if the House approves any of the articles of impeachment the House Judiciary Committee has recommended by a simple majority vote.

The panel's ranking member, Republican representative Doug Collins, said he expected the Democrat-controlled House would pass the articles of impeachment before Christmas.

"It's a clock-and-calendar issue, and every American ought to be scared about this," Collins said on Fox News on Tuesday.

The House Judiciary Committee released a report on Saturday explaining the constitutional grounds for the impeachment, accusing Trump of abusing his office by pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky into launching investigations that could benefit Trump politically during the 2020 U.S. elections.

Trump claimed "nothing came out" of his July phone conversation with Zelensky, an episode standing at the center of the impeachment proceeding initiated by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in late September. The White House has not participated in the impeachment proceeding, accusing Democrats of an unfair process.
