On Wednesday, January 15, 2020, the House Speaker Nancy Pelosi signed the articles of impeachment at a ceremony in the Capitol, hours after she named a team of trial managers led by Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam B. Schiff and Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler.
On Thursday, January 16, 2020, at noon hour, EST, the House impeachment managers walked across the Capitol to the Senate side for the exhibition of the articles of impeachment. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam B. Schiff then read the two articles of impeachment against President Donald J. Trump on the Senate floor. Later, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., who will preside over the trial, sworn in the senators as jurors. The impeachment trial will likely start next week. At the center of the Democrats’ case is that President Trump withheld military assistance and an Oval Office meeting until Ukraine announced investigation into former vice president Joe Biden and his son.
