The Senate on Saturday voted to acquit former President Donald Trump on a charge of incitement of insurrection largely along party lines, bringing an end to the fourth impeachment trial in U.S. history and the second for Trump.

Only seven Republicans voted to convict Trump for allegedly inciting the deadly Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, when a mob of pro-Trump supporters tried to disrupt the electoral vote count formalizing Joe Biden's election win before a joint session of Congress. The final vote was 57 to 43, far short of the 67 votes needed to secure a conviction.

Republican Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania all voted guilty.

The vote means the Senate cannot bar Trump from holding future federal offices.

Moments after the vote concluded, the former president issued a statement praising his legal team and thanking the senators and other members of Congress "who stood proudly for the Constitution we all revere and for the sacred legal principles at the heart of our country."

Is no one going to mention the faggotry of linking to nbc news directly?

I still think Kamala is the intended recipient of the corrupt & tyrannical globalists crown.

Biden will probably get impeached, "die" of natural causes, or resign within the year to make way for Heels Up Harris.

Also, OP is definitely a faggot.

Bingo. I've been there since 2017. I didn't expect the bait & switch, but after she polled like 1% popularity with niggers, I guess I should have seen it coming.

Though Kami Harris will assume office after 2 years of a Biden presidency. That way she can get two more terms afterwards for ~10 years in office.

That's of course assuming she doesn't get revolutioned after her attempted gun grab in 2025. Most likely result there is successful secession from gun-rights-supporting states. Frankly I look forward to that part.

General unpopularity aside for the whore nigger queen, she was California's AG during it's most tyrannical period of gun control - so you're probably right.

It was the only media outlet reporting it at the time.
