Here are the elements of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s letter laying out Democratic demands for the impeachment trial that Republicans likely will and won't agree to
The impeachment inquiry into President Trump continues after the House Judiciary Committee approved articles of impeachment last week.After a lengthy day of debating the two articles of impeachment against Trump, abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, the House Judiciary Committee voted to approve both articles Friday. The vote fell on partisan lines: Democrats voted yes and Republicans voted no, with the exception of Rep. Ted Lieu, a Democrat who was absent because of illness.
Another 4% say Trump should be impeached but not removed, and 41% oppose impeachment altogether. Regardless of their views on impeachment, 53% of voters say Trump abused his power, 48% say he obstructed Congress and 45% say he committed bribery.Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and a close ally of Trump, said he will do everything in his power to quickly end an expected impeachment trial in the Republican-led Senate.
