Democratic donor Tom Steyer will run Trump impeachment ads in Times Square

WASHINGTON _ Top Democratic donor Tom Steyer is taking his effort to impeach President Donald Trump to New York City's Times Square with billboard ads that will run until New Year's Day.

The ads, which will run for 10 minutes every hour, invite people to sign a petition at needtoimpeach.com that urges Congress to impeach Trump. The ads will include a tally of signatures. According to a news release, 2.5 million people have signed the petition.

Steyer has laid out $20 million for impeachment ads that have been running on TV across the country.

The billionaire from San Francisco has long flirted with running for public office, most recently floating a potential challenge to fellow Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
