Just 7 days left for the current US president, Donald Trump, to finish his administration, and today he could become the first president to be removed from office and be denied the power to run again to be at the head of the country for a second term.
And is that, this Wednesday, House Democrats and some Republicans, will vote in favor of the impeachment of Donald Trump, just a week after the riots carried out by a mob in the Capitol, which caused the death of four people, and that, it is considered, was encouraged by the speech of hate and polarization of the same president.
The speed with which the vote was called, as well as the fact that a group of Republicans have joined the cause, makes clear the anger and disappointment felt by lawmakers after considering that Trump incited the rioters.
Thus, the House impeachment resolution accuses Trump of only one article, "incitement to insurrection".
So far, five Republicans have said they will vote to impeach the president, but House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise oppose impeachment.
While impeachment is unlikely to come, Democrats have quickly rallied around the use of impeachment in the final days of Trump's presidency, which will serve as a response to inappropriate behavior.
Several media have pointed out that there are fears of possible riots on Wednesday, January 20, when the president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden, is finally sworn in as the new president of the American Union.
Nancy Pelosi has brushed aside Republican efforts to take different action, such as censure, in response to Trump's role in the riots.
Along those lines, the House speaker named the impeachment managers Tuesday night, a team of nine Democrats to be led by Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland.
