Impeachment, Coronavirus, N.F.L. Playoffs: Your Weekend Briefing


The drumbeat for a second Trump impeachment is getting louder. Speaker Nancy Pelosi could bring a new article of impeachment to the House floor as early as Monday, charging President Trump with “incitement of insurrection” for his role in encouraging a mob that went on to ransack the Capitol on Wednesday. Privately, Republican leaders said conviction was not out of the question. A second impeachment would be “a final showdown that will test the boundaries of politics, accountability and the Constitution,” writes Peter Baker, our chief White House correspondent. Lisa Murkowski and Patrick Toomey became the first Republican senators to publicly join the multitude of calls for Mr. Trump to resign.
