House Impeaches Trump a Second Time — 10 Republicans Vote Yes
The House impeaches Trump for 'incitement of insurrection' on a 232-197 vote, with 10 Republicans joining all Democrats — the most bipartisan impeachment in US history. House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney votes yes, calling it 'the greatest betrayal by a president of the United States of his office and his oath.' The Senate trial begins after Biden's inauguration; Trump is acquitted 57-43 (conviction requires 67).
