U.S. House impeaches President Trump for a second time

U.S. President Donald Trump has become the first U.S. president to be impeached twice, a week after violent protesters stormed the U.S. Capitol.

Trump is charged with "inciting violence against the government."The House on Wednesday voted to impeach 232 to 197. Ten Republicans voted to impeach.

The Senate trial is expected to happen after Trump leaves office. Neither a House impeachment nor a Senate vote to convict Trump could prevent him from holding office in 2024 or beyond. U.S. Senators need to approve an additional vote to bar Trump from the presidency in the future.
