On Wednesday, Jan. 13, Donald J. Trump became the first sitting president in U.S. history to be impeached by Congress for a second time. He was first impeached in December 2019 for Abuse of Power and Obstruction of Congress, for his role in soliciting political information on Democratic rival and now President-elect, Joseph Biden.
This time, Trump was starkly accused by Congress of inciting his followers to violently storm the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, Jan. 6, during a speech at a rally. The measure passed largely along party lines, 232-197, with 10 Republicans joining the chamber’s Democratic majority, making it the most bipartisan impeachment in U.S. history.
