The House impeachment managers formally triggered the start of former President Trump's second impeachment, the first president in history to be impeached twice, as was reported by CNN.
On Tuesday, senators will be sworn in for the trial as jurors.The trial itself will get underway the week of Feb. 8. The exact time frame of the trial itself is unknown, but multiple impeachment managers have said they don't think it will go as long as the 21 days of Trump's trial in 2020. The expectation is still, however, that it will take up much of February and wrap up by month's end, if not sooner.
Chief Justice John Roberts will not be presiding like he did for Trump's first impeachment trial, according to two sources familiar with the matter. Instead, Sen. Patrick Leahy, the president pro tempore of the Senate, is expected to preside, the sources said.
It is known that the resolution on Trump was made on the basis of the article "incitement to revolt".It will be recalled that at a rally in front of the White House on January 6, Trump once again stated that he did not admit defeat in the election, and called on people to go to the Congress building, where Biden was to be declared the winner of the election.
