Trumps impeachment trial : Live updates

Asked about today's impeachment trial, Biden says he's focused on the work of being President

President Biden sought to return the focus to Covid-19 relief and deferred to the Senate on the impeachment trial that began just over an hour ago, declining to weigh in substantively on the historic proceedings underway.

Asked by CNN’s Kaitlan Collins if he will watch the trial, Biden said he is focused on the work of being President during global health and economic crises.

“I am not – look, I told you before. I have a job. My job is to keep – we’ve already lost over 450,000 people and we’re going to lose a whole lot more if we don’t act and act decisively and quickly. A lot of people, as I said, a lot of children are going to bed hungry. A lot of families are food insecure. That’s my job,” Biden said in the Oval Office during a meeting with business leaders.
He continued, “The Senate has their job. They're about to begin it. I'm sure they're going to conduct themselves well. And that's all I'm going to have to say about impeachment.”

His comments come one day after White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters that Biden “will not spend too much time watching the proceeding, if any time,” though Psaki did acknowledge at Tuesday’s briefing that the trial was of national interest.  

CNN has reported that advisers say Biden has no intention to offer his assessment of whether Trump should be convicted – he does not see it as necessary or productive to offer his personal view, which could further complicate his quest for unity. And last month, he told Collins that the trial “has to happen,” though he didn’t think Trump would be convicted.

Trump's tweet on rioters "chills me to the core," House impeachment manager says

Democratic Rep. David Cicilline, a House impeachment manager, said that a tweet from former President Trump on Jan. 6 shows exactly how he felt about the Capitol attack.

At 6:01 p.m. ET on Jan. 6, Trump tweeted “these are the things that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously and viciously stripped away from great patriots,” adding for rioters to go home “with love and in peace.”

“Every time I read that tweet, it chills me to the core,” Cicilline said. “The President of the United States sided with the insurrectionists. He celebrated their cause. He validated their attack. He told them, ‘remember this day forever,’ hours after they marched through these halls looking to assassinate Vice President Pence, the Speaker of the House, and any of us they could find.”
Cicilline said that Trump’s arguments against impeachment are “dead wrong” and “distractions.”

Senators take notes and doodle as House impeachment managers present their case

While the House impeachment managers make their presentation, most senators were paying attention, either taking notes or listening politely. Some didn't seem to be too interested in the proceedings.

Sen. Rand Paul, who is not wearing a mask, was doodling squiggly lines on a white pad of paper. Next to him, his friend, Utah Sen. Mike Lee, was taking extensive notes, writing furiously as Democrats were making their arguments.

Everyone is wearing a mask, other than Paul. Sen. Cynthia Lummis pulled her mask down for an extended period of time as well.

Lee has a book titled "Senate procedure" on his desk, while Sen. Rick Scott has a book entitled "Vicksburg." Sen. Mike Braun was sitting in the back of the chamber reading The Hill newspaper, with a copy of Roll Call also at his desk. Sen. Josh Hawley was reading some documents.

Many senators are taking notes, including Sens. Rob Portman, Susan Collins and Tammy Baldwin. And virtually all senators are in their seats. Here or there, a senator may slip into their respective cloak rooms and then return to their desks after a few minutes.

The upstairs galleries, usually filled with guests, are totally empty, except for a handful of doorkeepers seated. Rep. Al Green is also in attendance in the upstairs gallery.
