The US House of Representatives begins its momentous vote on impeaching President Donald Trump for a second time, on charges of "incitement of insurrection." After hours of intense debate, a bipartisan majority of members is expected to impeach the president, who urged supporters last week to march on the US Capitol and "fight like hell," actions that Democrats say incited a mob to stage a violent and deadly uprising.

The US House of Representatives on Wednesday began debating legislation to impeach President Donald Trump for the second time of his presidency. The House is set to first hold a vote setting rules for Wednesday's debate. If it is approved, as expected, it will set the stage for a vote later in the day on passage of one article of impeachment charging Trump with inciting insurrection in a speech he made last week that led to rioting in the US Capitol.
President Donald Trump said Tuesday there is "zero" chance of him being forced from office by his government under invocation of the 25th Amendment. "The 25th amendment is of zero risk to me," Trump said in Alamo, Texas, in reference to pressure by Democrats on Vice President Mike Pence to remove Trump through the almost never used constitutional measure. Trump warned, without further explanation, that the amendment "will come back to haunt Joe Biden and the Biden administration. As the expression goes, be careful what you wish for."
