Chuck Schumer: House to hand Senate impeachment article Monday; 'make no mistake,' a trial will happen

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) will transmit the single article of impeachment against former President Donald Trump to the Senate on Monday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) announced Friday.

Schumer, speaking on the Senate floor, said in no uncertain terms that there will be an impeachment trial and a Senate vote on whether to convict Trump, whose term as president ended Wednesday when President Joe Biden was inaugurated.

"Make no mistake: A trial will be held in the United States Senate, and there will be a vote on whether to convict the president," Schumer said.
