'Start Here': Democrats expected to unveil articles of impeachment: sources

By KELLY TEREZ

Updated 15 minutes ago

It's Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2019. Let's start here.

1. Impeachment next steps

Democrats are expected to unveil at least two articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump at a 9 a.m. news conference today, according to multiple Democratic sources familiar with the matter.

ABC News' Benjamin Siegel, who covers Congress, breaks down what charges to expect from Democrats and the next steps in the impeachment process on "Start Here."

"Democrats settled on what they think can get the most support on the House floor, the broadest possible charges," he says. "We'll learn more of the details later today, but this is what they think can make the strongest and cleanest case in the Senate trial."

Dems in red or purple districts to do so.
I know that’s the meme from the media.
But, I’d rather see a pattern of obstruction of justice and to bring in the violations of the emoluments clause to show a pattern of abuse of power to benefit Trump and his family.
