Senate Acquits Trump In Impeachment Trial — Again Enlarge this image toggle caption Jon Cherry/Getty Images Jon Cherry/Getty Images The U.S. Senate on Saturday acquitted former President Donald Trump on an impeachment charge of inciting an insurrection. The Democratic House impeachment managers argued that the former president, who addressed a rally outside the White House ahead of the insurrection, was "singularly responsible" for the violence on Jan. 6. Sponsor Message Trump's rhetoric about widespread fraud and a stolen election was false, dismissed by many courts stemming from dozens of lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign and allies across several key states. Trump's legal team also argued that his Jan. 6 rally speech was protected by the First Amendment, a contention that impeachment managers labeled ludicrous.
