Senate agrees to hear Trump case, rejecting GOP arguments​


WASHINGTON — Donald Trump’s historic second impeachment trial opened Tuesday with graphic video showing the former president whipping up a rally crowd to march to the Capitol and “fight like hell” against his reelection defeat, followed by images of the deadly attack on Congress that came soon after.

In an early test of the former president's defence, Trump's team lost a crucial bid to halt the trial on constitutional grounds. Senators confirmed, 56-44, their jurisdiction over the trial, the first of a president no longer in office. While six Republican senators joined the Democrats in proceeding, the tally showed how far prosecutors have to go to win conviction, which requires a two-thirds threshold of 67 senators.

CNN is just overjoyed they have Trump back in the news to help save their failing company


This is what happens in banana republics and Joseph Stalin’s Soviet Union.
Democrats don’t care.

The Senate impeachment “judge” voted on Tuesday to proceed with the impeachment of private citizen Donald Trump.

Far-left Senator Patrick Leahy is acting as witness, juror and judge in this sham proceeding.

What a crock.

Even as Democrats present their case for convicting President Trump of allegedly inciting a violent insurrection on Capitol Hill, Republicans say they can use the occasion to go on offense and embarrass Democrats for their own rhetoric.

The public record is rife with statements from Democratic lawmakers that challenge the legitimacy of Republican electoral victories and could, if interpreted literally, be construed to encourage physical confrontation of conservatives.

"So the hypocrisy is actually to President Trump's advantage," Jessie Jane Duff, co-chair of Veterans for Trump, told "Just the News AM" program on Tuesday. "Many on the Trump team are excited that he's actually going to be able to embarrass the Senate, he's going to be able to embarrass the congressional leaders who voted for this, because their words and actions have directly suggested ... what they're trying to deflect and say that he has done. We know that the evidence shows that he did not create this, did not design this, that the Capitol riots were essentially already pre-planned."

Among possible examples to be shared by Republicans during the impeachment trial:
