The US House of Representatives is debating an article of impeachment on Wednesday, charging President Donald Trump with “high crimes and misdemeanors” for “incitement of insurrection” following his actions and remarks leading up to January 6 siege of the US Capitol by a mob of his supporters.
The House is set to vote on Wednesday afternoon and, if the resolution passes, Trump will be the first US president in history to be impeached twice.
If the House impeaches Trump, the article will be sent to the US Senate, which is required to hold a trial to determine whether Trump should remain in office or be prevented from holding office in the future.
