The senate trial of President Trump is beginning today, after a vote upon the USMCA trade deal.
Nancy Pelosi has submitted impeachment articles and named Adam Schiff as her champion to argue the case as her chief impeachment manager
She is currently speaking live;

Key Republican Senators have already said they plan to acquit before the trial even began.

Of note, Lev Parnas said Trump was directly involved in pressuring Ukraine to investigate Biden. I can only hope the Senate votes to call him as a witness so he can speak the truth under oath.

Much like the house can do basically whatever they want in regards to their impeachment proceedingsl, the Senate can now do whatever they want as per the constitution and all these crooks already knew impeaching was pointless. Aren't you glad government is wasting all your money and time for a circus. Oh wait the left actually loves these shams, I forgot.

you know which side is telling the truth? the one that prevents key witnesses from testifying, the one that heavily restricts the scope of the trial and reporting about it, the side that publicly announced to break their oath of office, to abandon their role as check on the executive in order to cooperate with and acquit the defendant...
trump shills hate the constitution, they hate the rule of law, and checks and balances. they looove their orange emperor though...

Joe/Hunter Biden? Eric Ciaramella?

the one that heavily restricts the scope of the trial and reporting about it


Held only in committees and then up for a rushed floor vote, with rules drafted in closed doors and excluding all the materials from the Mueller Report and excluding any investigation of Joe Biden's dealings in Ukraine?

Quote

by vowing to impeach before a trial is held

Sounds like you're describing Nancy Pelosi without realizing it

They haven't taken their oaths yet. If they say that once they take their oaths, they should go to prison for the rest of their lives.
