The House of Representatives will begin the process Wednesday morning of impeaching President Trump a second time in little more than a year after Vice President Mike Pence rejected invoking the 25th Amendment to remove the commander-in-chief from office.
The House approved an article of impeachment on Monday that charged the president with “inciting violence against the government of the United States” in connection with the mob of Trump supporters who stormed the US Capitol last Wednesday, forcing lawmakers to seek shelter in undisclosed locations and causing the deaths of five people, including a Capitol Police officer.
House members gave Pence an ultimatum: either he and the Cabinet would remove the president or the House would seek to impeach him for the second time since December 2019.
