LIVE VIDEO: House Debates Impeachment Articles

Politico reports:

Wednesday will be a historic day. The House will vote to impeach a president of the United States for only the third time in history. It‘s been a tumultuous journey to get to this point and is sure to lead to blockbuster moments.

The whole House will gather to begin debating on two articles of impeachment at 9 a.m. But don’t expect a result too soon after. Members will have six hours to debate, and the final vote is predicted to take place between 6:30 and 7:30 p.m.

President Donald Trump says he will not be watching the impeachment proceedings, calling the process a “hoax.” He has a rally scheduled in Battle Creek, Mich., that night, and it will probably be a wild one. Trump often expresses his most unfiltered views in the wake of major rebukes to his presidency.

I’ll keep this post near the top of the page all day. If the comments load becomes unwieldy, we’ll do a second post before the vote.
