Senate Democrats are getting ready to conduct a second impeachment trial for former President Donald Trump on the charge of inciting an insurrection even as they seek to advance the legislative agenda and nominations of the new president.

President Biden has said Trump’s trial “has to happen” but expressed hope that “Senate leadership will find a way to deal with their constitutional responsibilities on impeachment while also working on the other urgent business of this nation.” The White House has otherwise taken a hands-off approach and instead emphasized the nearly $2 trillion COVID-19 relief bill and other legislative priorities.
