WASHINGTON — Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer Friday announced on the Senate floor the impeachment trial for Donald Trump will begin the week of Feb. 8.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will send the article of impeachment to the Senate Monday.
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell wanted to postpone the trial until February to give Trump time to prepare his case.
The House impeached Trump on a single charge of inciting insurrection for the riots at the United States Capitol building on Jan. 6.
