He will be impeached in the House today, yes. The Senate will likely not hear it until after Biden is sworn in.

- Thread starter Realyst
- Start date
Votes are happening once the debate is over. Probably in another hour or so.

Impeachment is two parts.
The House votes for impeachment, the Senate votes for removal.
That's why Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Donald Trump have been impeaced, but no president has been removed from office (Johnson was one vote short).
I would appreciate if the House Republicans quit claiming to be the party of Lincoln. He stood against insurrections against the US Government.
More Jaime's please. Already knew she was a yes for impeachment but it's nice to hear some sanity after all the crazy from the Boebert's, Gaetz's and Jordan's of that fascist party.
Thank you! Am I to understand it might be different this time because the Democrats have control of the Senate?
It's almost as if the fucker decided to leave his coup to the last minute hoping these people would use this excuse
I'm going to see if these House Republicans who are saying they will vote yes for impeachment actually will do so during the vote on impeachment at around 3:30 PM Eastern.
So how does the speakers get selected? Why would the GOP let the people voting for impeachment talk? Just a question on how this debate works

No. That doesn't really matter too too much. The democrats aren't such a majority that their control could convict. It's more of there's GOP leadership in the Senate that is reportedly interested in impeachment.
That's how far back they have to reach to find a Republican president who was worth anything.
Yeah, if there's one thing Lincoln was known for, it was for ignoring insurrection against the nation and saying it was the time for "healing" and "unity".
I'm so lost on the reasoning some of these representative are giving against impeachment. "It will divide the country" "We need to bring the country together" Are they oblivious to the notion that the person that is the target of the impeachment is the one accused of dividing the country and inciting a riot. The reason for the impeachment is punishment for the incitement and to prevent further incitement from occurring again. It's like letting a murderer off the hook because the murderer's family will be sad if they go to jail.
