House impeachment executives begin their second day of fraying Thursday before the Senate is turned over to the defense of former President Donald Trump.
The Senate began Trump’s second impeachment trial on Tuesday the charge that he instigated a fatal mob storming the US Capitol last month.
Listen to live coverage of the event at the audio link above.
The historic second trial takes place just a month after the January 6th uprising at the Capitol in which five people, including a police officer, were killed. Two other police officers who responded to the scene have since died of suicide.
Democrats and some Republicans have accused Trump of fueling the crowd and putting hundreds of lawmakers at risk.
Trump’s defense is that his utterances should be protected from the insurrection under the First Amendment and that he should not be brought to justice because he is no longer in office.
