A top Democrat in the House suggested on Thursday morning—after articles of impeachment were passed against President Donald Trump—that his caucus could indefinitely delay sending the two articles to the Senate for a trial.
“The delay is made necessary because the majority leader of the Senate has made it very clear that he’s not going to be impartial, he’s not going to be fair, he will collude, if you please, with the White House—at least the White House’s attorneys—to decide how he will go forward,“ Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.), the House Majority Whip, told CNN. ”Why would the speaker of the House step into that without trying to determine exactly what the majority leader plans to do?”
