DENVER Wednesday, 232 votes in the U.S. House of Representatives impeached President Donald Trump for a second time. Democratic Colorado Representative Joe Neguse was one of those votes.
Neguse will play a major role in President Trump s impeachment trial, as one of nine impeachment managers.
Officially, the House has voted for a second time to impeach President Trump. Were you expecting the vote to go the way it did?
Rep. Neguse: It s been a very tough, difficult week for the country and today was certainly no exception. It’s a solemn moment. Impeachment is arguably the most powerful constitutional tool available to the House. It is not something that we take lightly. Certainly, we take no joy in it. It is a solemn, solemn day.

A group of GOP members of Congress are proposing a censure of President Donald Trump as House Democrats prepare to impeach the president on Wednesday.
The proposal pushed by Reps Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., and Tom Reed, R-N.Y. on Tuesday would admonish Trump for âattempting to unlawfully overturnâ the 2020 election, and for âviolating his oath of office on January 6.â
The proposal, which has the support of seven GOP members of Congress, comes nearly a week after a mob of Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol, interrupting the count of the Electoral College. The riot, which forced lawmakers to take cover for several hours, resulted in the deaths of five people, including a member of the US Capitol Police.

Climate politics has taken a 180-degree turn in favor of federal action thanks to the voters of Georgia. The Democrats’ surprising double win in the Peach State’s runoff elections has turned the US Senate from red to blue or more accurately
blue-ish.
With both the House and Senate in Democratic hands, it becomes possible for the incoming Biden administration and the Democrats in Congress to move quickly on a wide range of climate-related matters. Had the Senate remained in Republican control, Majority Leader McConnell (R-KY) would have continued playing the Grim Reaper
, making good on his vow to keep climate defense measures from ever landing on the Senate floor or the president’s desk.
