Were watching this historic impeachment proceeding under way in congress. If youve been watching today and into tonight you know that in technical terms this is what tay call a markup which means the Judiciary Committee is there to change or fine tune the articles of impeachment against President Trump before a final vote. In reality what todays proceedings have been is an opportunity for democrats to make the case for impeaching President Trump, and its been an opportunity for republicans to criticize democrats for that and to try to derail the proceedings however they can.
