Trump acquitted in second impeachment trial
Former President Donald Trump said his movement ‘has only just begun’ as he was acquitted of an insurrection incitement charge by the Senate. Seven Republicans voted to convict Trump, but the Democrats were unable to attain the 67 votes required for a supermajority. Trump, in a statement after the vote, said Democrats are ‘given a free pass to denigrate the rule of law, defame law enforcement, cheer mobs, excuse rioters, and transform justice into a tool of political vengeance’ — Epoch Times
