Impeachment

[otkaznik1]

It's a solemn day in America. No matter your political leanings or how you feel about this whole process, it's never pleasant or exciting to witness the impeachment of the most powerful person in the country. Today, President Trump will be charged by the House's Democratic majority with abusing his power and obstructing Congress. And, true to form, Trump is not approaching the day quietly. The President sent a scathing, six-page letter yesterday to Speaker Nancy Pelosi, comparing his impeachment to the Salem witch trials and leveling all kinds of accusations at House Democrats and anyone involved with the process. Live coverage of today's proceedings begins on CNN at 8 a.m. ET. You can also follow up-to-the-minute coverage all day at CNN.com.
