Trump impeachment

The statement comes days after the Senate minority leader said former President Donald Trump committed a "disgraceful dereliction of duty" on Jan. 6.

Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski will face voters in 2022, but her state's new primary and voting system likely means she'll be in less danger of losing her primary.

In a statement issued shortly after a final vote in the Senate on a charge of inciting an insurrection, Trump said the "movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun."

Seven Republicans joined with all Democrats and independents to vote to convict the former president for inciting an insurrection, but the tally is short of the two-thirds vote needed.

The impeachment managers and the former president's defense team agreed to enter a statement from GOP Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler into evidence instead of calling her as a witness.

The former president is being tried on one article of impeachment saying he incited the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Videos shown during the proceedings may contain profanity and violence.

The former president is set to be acquitted as soon as Saturday despite a compelling and extensive case made by Democrats, as most Republicans once again circle the Trump wagon.

The first three days of the Senate impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump went about as well as they could have for Democratic House impeachment managers.

Many of the statements referenced in the Senate impeachment trial appear in the criminal cases against the alleged rioters.

House managers used the first of their two days for arguments to present new footage from security cameras showing how close rioters got to Vice President Mike Pence, lawmakers and staff on Jan. 6.

House impeachment managers played new video and audio documenting the violent mayhem at the Capitol on Jan. 6.

House impeachment manager Jamie Raskin opened the trial with video of the scenes of pro-Trump rioters breaching the Capitol on Jan. 6. Many senators panned the former president's defense team.
