two moderate democrats against the filibuster. all this means democrats can turn their attention to matters of national importance. there's one big thing standing in the way of all of that, impeachment. >> donald john trump engaged in high crimes and misdemeanors by inciting violence against the united states. >> the house impeachment managers literally walked through the scene of the crime to deliver the sole article of impeachment to the senate. more republican senators are arguing it's simply not constitutional to impeach trump now that he's out of the white house. one impeachment manager says the timing doesn't matter. >> you think of someone who's going to attack the peaceful transition of power and hold on to power despite the will of the people. that's going to happen at the end of their term not the beginning so it presents a very dangerous precedent if we were to say, look, a president, vice president gets a constitutional freebie. you get one free thing, do it near the end so it will be late in your term. that would be very, very dangerous for our democracy. >> president biden weighing in on impeachment with the most direct comments so far telling kaitlyn collins the senate trial has to happen even if it means holding up his legislative agenda and his cabinet nominees. the president told caitlyn there would be a worse effect if it didn't happen. meanwhile, targets of the insurrection will be sworn in as jurors. the historic trial, fourth in history, second against president trump. ryan noble starts us off on capitol hill. >> reporter: good morning from capitol hill where the articles of impeachment are now in the hands of the united states senate. now begins the clock ticking on the next impeachment trial for former president donald trump. it's going to be about a two-week process for the president and his legal team to get their legal affairs in order. on tuesday the senators will be sworn in. the presiding judge will take over the responsibility of overseeing the trial. they will begin with an eye towards february 9th. that's when the trial itself will take place. we don't know how it will look, if there will be witnesses. they're prepared for the possibility of witnesses. some suggesting that even the senators themselves may be called to testify since they were a part of the capitol insurrection which is at the core of this impeachment. trump attempting to put together a legal team. sources are telling jeff zeleny that he's having a hard time gathering together a big legal team, many law firms don't want to be associated with the impeachment trial and may be as simple as being worried president trump won't pay them. that's the situation the president finds himself in. lindsey graham said he spoke to president trump over the weekend and the president, like many americans, just wants to see this impeachment trial behind him as soon as possible. >> thank you for that. one notable difference between the upcoming impeachment trial and the last one, who is in charge. senator patrick leahy will preside. that's because the 80-year-old democrat is the longest serving lawmaker in the majority party. otherwise known as the president pro tem of the senate. justice roberts doesn't have to preside under the constitution. senator leahy is vowing to oversee the trial with impartiality. there is an inquiry from the doj. they revealed a plot from the former president trump and top doj official to change the results. they wanted to fire jeffrey rosen who had privately rejected the president's demands. senate majority leader chuck schumer called for the inspector general's probe saying it was unconscionable a doj official would try to subvert the people's will. a tornado in birmingham, alabama. some people are hospitalized with serious injuries. search and rescue teams are combing through debris now. officials say a house collapsed on one family. no word on their condition yet. a

history. she'll be sworn in by chairs. she is a battle tested economist. taking the top job at treasury makes her one of the most powerful women in the world. her job now, she's got to be the salesperson for the biden administration's rescue of the battered american economy. biden's $1.9 trillion plan includes a bigger stimulus check, money for state and local aid, money for a crucial national vaccine plan. yellen says right now with interest rates at historic lows, the smartest thing we can do is act big. there is a lot of work done. years of job market gains have been wiped out. we're down 9.8 million jobs since february. what's been called a k shaped economy and health crisis have left millions behind while the rich, laura, recovering very, very quickly. the bottom -- i would say the bottom 20or 25% of earners essentially they have the economic conditions of the depression at this moment. that's something for congress to keep in mind as the stock market hits records. real people, especially those living in poverty are hungry feeling like dark, dark winter. >> obviously everyone wants the economy to do well. so important to frame it that way. still ahead, moderna

article to the senate. more republican senators are arguing it's not constitutional to impeach trump now that he's out of the white house. impeachment managers say the timing doesn't matter. >> you think about someone who's going to attack the peaceful transition of power and try to hold on to power despite the will of the american people. that's going to happen at the end of their term, not the

office. at some point give the man a break. i mean, move on. if you truly are about moving on, move on. the idea that they're going to do impeachment, that's not going to bring the country together, that's only dividing the country. >> beating up, it was law enforcement who were beat up on the scene. a police officer was killed because a mob stormed the capitol over the president's insightment and lies. that's what makes it difficult to move on. donald trump has two weeks to get his legal case in order. the trial begins february 9th. not clear how long it could take. lawmakers could be

president biden raising the bar to ramp up vaccinations. phil mattingly has more. >> reporter: christine and laura, the white house has made no secret of the agenda, the coronavirus pandemic. president biden taking questions at a press conference on monday tried to address all of those. the most pressing the administration is trying to get its arms around at the moment is the issue of vaccinations, whether there's an infrastructure, how much supply is in place. biden says he believes they will stay on track to have 100 million vaccinations in 100 days. he believes they could kick it up to 1.5 million vaccinations in a day and open the door to the possibility everybody who wants to get vaccinated could get vaccinated by spring. another thing that's crucial, the corner stone of the opening days of the administration, a $1.9 trillion stimulus proposal which has been faced by the republicans cool to ice cold. biden wants to negotiate. where they're going, we'll have to see. >> no one wants to give up on their position until there's no other alternative. they have to insist on what they have, don't support what is being proposed or they let it all go away, fall down. i think we're far from that point right now. i don't expect we'll know whether we have an agreement and to what extent the entire package can pass or not pass until we get down to the end of this pros si which will be in a couple of weeks. >> reporter: the president's process is central on what's happening. democrats in the house and senate have started to itch to move forward on their own using a budget procedure that wouldn't take any republican support at all. biden has made it clear, he's campaigned on bipartisanship. he did it as a vice president, senator for more than 36 years and wants to give an opportunity for republican senators to come along over the course of the next couple of days. president biden has made clear he's willing to negotiate on the number. where that goes? that's an open question. democrats are ready to go on their own and biden is leaving the door open to some bipartisan resolution. breaking overnight, a large and extremely dangerous tornado ripping through

disinformation and outright lies, voting machine maker dominion is taking a former new york city mayor rudy giuliani to court. dominion filed a defamation suit against giuliani for $1.3 billion. the company's best evidence, giuliani's own words. tom foreman has more. >> this dominion company is a radical left company, one of the people there is a big supporter of antifa. >> reporter: for dominion voting systems, the case against rudy giuliani comes from his own mouth. >> the company counting our vote with control over our vote is owned by two venezuelans who were allies of chavez. >> reporter: through falsehoods -- >> it is not made up. >> reporter: the lawsuit says former president donald trump's lawyer pushed blatant lies about the company. >> one of the experts that has examined the krookt dominion machines has absolutely what he believes is conclusive proof that in the last 10%, 15% of the vote counted the votes were deliberately changed. >> reporter: dominion's $1.3 billion lawsuit against giuliani follows a similar suit against sidney powell who promoted trump's false claims the vote was rigged. >> people believed this lie. people believed the statements that were made by giuliani. they were motivated to take action in the real world. >> reporter: dominion says the deception spurred deep mistrust of the voting system could cost the company a fortune and triggered threats against its employees. giuliani says the massive suit is quite obviously intended to frighten people of feint heart. it is another act of intimidation by the hate filled left wing to wipe out and censure the free speech. >> dominion. nobody knows who owns it. it was a rigged election. it was really a sham and a shame. >> reporter: still, trump and his supporters enjoyed a great deal of free speech when they were trashing dominion, again, without a shred of proof to back their false claims. >> the biggest fraud is the dominion machines. >> reporter: so dominion teerns say they are looking hard at fox news, oam, news max, sean hannity, lou dobbs, maria bar tir roma, the epoch times and more as the company contemplates its next legal moves. dominion is hoping to learn during the process of legal discovery whether the attacks were coordinated at higher levels. if so, that could open up more targets for lawsuits and potentially make all of that free speech a lot more costly.
