Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, her chief deputy, publicly advocates that the article be sent"as soon as possible."
McConnell's office said Wednesday that he would not invoke a 2004 resolution that had been pushed by Democrats as giving him and Schumer joint power to reconvene the Senate, without unanimous consent, for what would essentially be an emergency session. Schumer was exploring the possibility that he could get McConnell to invoke the resolution with him earlier this week.
Whenever it is that Pelosi decides to send the articles, the Senate, according to its rules, will be essentially forced to drop everything it is doing and hold an impeachment trial for Trump. Then, the Senate would essentially be locked into the impeachment trial until it is finished and there is a vote on whether to convict Trump, who will then be the ex-president, for inciting an insurrection. This could delay the body's ability to consider other priorities, like Biden's national security-related nominees.
"While the press has been full of speculation, I have not made a final decision on how I will vote and I intend to listen to the legal arguments when they are presented to the Senate," he said.
How about Fox News stops promoting lies about the election results. You must get held accountable.
Pelosi is a witch in human form
So, will all the SEDITIONISTS AND INSURRECTIONISTS going to attend their 'rally' on Jan. 17th - or are they WUSSY'S afraid to stand-up for themselves? WUSSY BOYS. BWHAHAHA
