House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has tapped nine of her most trusted allies in the House to argue the case for President Donald Trump’s impeachment. Here's a look at her prosecution team in Trump’s historic second impeachment:

Impeachment managers Rep. Madeleine Dean, D-Pa., and Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., walk to the House chamber on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2021.

“This is a case where the jurors were also victims, and so whether it was those who voted in the House last night or those in the Senate who will have to weigh in on this, you don’t have to tell anyone who was in the building twice what it was like to be terrorized,” said California Rep. Eric Swalwell, one of the managers.

None of the impeachment managers argued the case in Trump’s first impeachment trial last year, when the Senate acquitted the president on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of justice. The House impeached Trump in 2019 after he pressured Ukraine’s president to investigate Biden’s family while withholding military aid to the country.

She says she was surprised when Pelosi called to offer her the prosecutorial position but quickly accepted. “The monstrosity of this offense is not lost on anybody,” she says.Cicilline, the former mayor of Providence and public defender, is in his sixth term in Congress and is a senior member of the Judiciary panel.

For over 3 years, I wake up with the memories & trauma of multiple sexual assaults & other horrific crimes! These sex criminal cops & the accomplices are free rape & victimize the community more! WILL YOU PLEASE HELP GIVE ME FBI/FBIPhoenix/TheJusticeDept INVESTIGATION?

On the 20th I want to hear the song that says: who let the dogs out?

Including one compromised by China just to rub Americans' faces in it.

They literally just said on CNN of all places.. that trump isn’t to blame... it was a set up... what is the argument?

Honest question to a liberal: why not emphasize the call to Ga SOS which was blatantly illegal and worthy of impeach and remove. The can of worms being taken on by 'incitement' is a slippery slope that no one is going to emerge from feeling good.
