'There's no such thing as a routine impeachment,' CNN's ZByronWolf writes. | Analysis

The overall impeachment process laid out in the Constitution is relatively simple: President commits"high Crime or Misdemeanor," House votes to impeach, Senate conducts a trial.

Those overall contours are constant. But there's no such thing as a routine impeachment.The one President Donald Trump faces now, after inciting a riotous mob to attack the Capitol, is unprecedented in all sorts of ways, which means the process will feel entirely new and different from the one we saw in late 2019 around the Ukraine investigation.Specifically, this House impeachment vote is likely to be done this week, and the Senate trial will occur after Trump leaves office.

Lawmaker: Impeachment only way to hold Trump accountable 02:39In 2020, Senate business ground to a complete halt during the trial. This time, incoming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is hoping to pursue a half-day schedule to conduct the trial part of the day and business the rest of the day.The charges this time are much simpler to convey and understand, however. It should still take some number of days with Chief Justice John Roberts presiding and senators sitting in judgment.

Pelosi: What if Trump pardons terrorists who stormed Capitol? 03:21...he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment. What does that mean for Trump this time?Trump is widely thought to be considering the never-before-attempted self-pardon, to inoculate himself from future legal jeopardy related to his time in office and running for office.

zbyronwolf Just going off the picture: I do feel we all may need a copy of our own constitution. We all have some sort of religious book, yet we do not have a book in which it states our constitutional rights and how our government works. We should fix that at some point.

zbyronwolf How’s that possible

zbyronwolf The only way we are going to make it through the hate that is circulating everywhere. Starts with us KIDsNPAjN mentalhealth wednesdaythought

zbyronwolf There was nothing inciting in the speech 🤷 Perhaps removing the President of the United States from most social networks to silence him, and then slandering him in the media is the real coup...

zbyronwolf He must go fast!

zbyronwolf How will it be the same ? Both shams. Partisan clap trap.

zbyronwolf for me there will be no difference, and the second impeachment will be like the first, I personally am not very hopeful

zbyronwolf Daniel 7; 13 In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man,(Jesus) coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days (Joe) and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power.

zbyronwolf Whether or not [man-made] laws catch up to him, there are natural laws. Every leader, like all of us, should aim to practice harmlessness – in thoughts, words and actions. Everything comes back to us eventually. - Gal 6:7 'As you sow you shall reap'
