BREAKING: The House Judiciary Committee abruptly postponed a final vote on articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump until Friday morning after a marathon 14-hour debate.
The first impeachment in a generation is about to hit the House floor — but not before a final burst of partisan rancor and an abrupt, if temporary, delay from the House Judiciary Committee.
The committee began formally debating the articles late Wednesday night, with lawmakers making direct appeals to their colleagues across the aisle. The debate continued late into the night on Thursday as Republicans offered several amendments to chip away at the articles of impeachment; all were doomed to fail on party-line votes.
Republican leaders have been working intensely to ensure that none of their rank-and-file colleagues join Democrats in favor of impeachment, and so far they are confident they have succeeded.
