What we saw today wasn't the end of a trial. It was the execution of a cover-up. The president's abuses of power have seeped into the Senate, threatening the foundations of this Chamber & our rule of law. W/out a full & fair trial, there can be no exoneration. #RejectTheCoverUp pic.twitter.com/CdxG1ysQog

This is what it looks like when the U.S. Senate undermines the rule of law. pic.twitter.com/3wpzdvenFb

I implore my colleagues to honor their oaths of office and their oaths to do impartial justice and judge this president on his known, demonstrated actions – and not on party affiliation or fear of Twitter reprisal. This moment demands that all of us put country before party.

WATCH LIVE: At 4 PM Eastern, the full Senate will reconvene to vote on the articles of impeachment against Donald J. Trump. The first vote will be on Trump’s abuse of power. The second vote will be on Trump’s obstruction of Congress. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

This bill will ensure both sides can introduce relevant witnesses and evidence. It will seek to undo the dangerous precedent this Senate set last week. Impeachment – and the checks and balances it represents – gets at the very heart of our government. We must protect that.

NEWS: A trial without witnesses and documents is not a fair and full trial. The Senate has failed its constitutional responsibility. That’s why I’m announcing that next week, I’ll be introducing legislation to make sure this never happens again. merkley.senate.gov/news/press-rel…

Democracy is not set in stone. It takes courage and commitment by and for the people to preserve it. A president that abuses their office, betrays the trust of the people, and undermines the strength of the Constitution must be removed. pic.twitter.com/Hsz8kFTLzn

with a cover-up in lieu of a trial, there is no exoneration.”

"[Trump] is emboldened because he knows he has a Senate majority that will protect him from the major check and balance," @SenJeffMerkley says before the Senate vote in the impeachment trial.

FACT CHECK: Under Donald J. Trump, immigrants have repeatedly been cast as criminals and a threat to public safety. In reality, undocumented immigrants are less likely to commit crimes in America than people who were born in the United States. #SOTU

FACT CHECK: Under Donald J. Trump, resources allocated for active duty military, military families, and bases around the country have been stripped to pay for a wall that blows over in high winds.
(And FACT CHECK PT 2: Mexico didn’t pay for it) #SOTU
