The U.S. Senate is holding a trial on the impeachment of President Trump, who is accused by the House of Representatives of abusing his power and obstructing Congress.
Trump's impeachment last month by the House on those charges. The White House rejects those charges and has called for an acquittal of the president. At issue in the impeachment is whether Trump sought political favors from his Ukrainian counterpart in exchange for the release of military aid. The White House denies any such link was made.
The trial will be live streamed each day here. It begins at 1 p.m.
