The House of Representatives impeached President Donald Trump on Wednesday. Having been previously impeached for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress related to the Ukraine scandal, he's the first president to be impeached twice.

According to Business Insider, ten Republican lawmakers broke ranks to vote with their Democratic colleagues to impeach the president. The final vote was 232 in favor of impeachment and 197 against.
Business Insider reports that five House Republicans support impeaching President Donald Trump over the Capitol siege. Most Republicans are pushing against it. They are arguing that it would further divide the country. "This will only bring up the hate and fire more than ever before," one House Republican said on Wednesday. But multiple polls show a majority of Americans support the House impeaching Trump and the Senate removing him from office.
GOP Rep. Liz Cheney announced on Tuesday that she will vote to impeach President Donald Trump.

Cheney went on to say; "Everything that followed was his doing." 4 people have died as a result of the mayhem at the Capitol building on January 6, 2021.
