Breitbart News reported Jan. 30 that the Democratic House impeachment panel is preparing so-called “incendiary” details for former President Trump‘s Senate impeachment trial.
According to the Washington Post, Democrats hope to show senators new footage of the Jan. 6 protests at the Capitol and the latest details about the injured police officers in the trial.
The goal to be achieved is to “provide the Senate with new evidence of the massive protests, showing that Trump knew about them in advance.” Democrats also hope the new evidence will make Republican senators feel “uncomfortable” about not convicting Trump.
The Washington Post said Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick was injured while making physical contact with protesters during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol. After returning to his department office, he collapsed.” This detail will also be presented at the trial. However, The Gateway Pundit reports that Sinik died by suicide.

What are some of the other things House Democrats want to play at the impeachment trial? According to the Washington Post, there are newly revealed cell phone recordings of protesters who attended Trump’s “Stop This Theft” rally that morning, as well as footage of the interior of the building after the crowd stormed the Capitol.
The information was gathered by the House Impeachment Leadership Team and related staff, and is being compiled by the law firm of Debevoise & Plimpton. It is important to know here that this is the same law firm that produced the audiovisual materials for the impeachment trial during the first impeachment of Trump.
The Democrats also intend to use as a slogan what Cheney Jr. said when he voted for Trump’s impeachment, when Cheney Jr. said, “Trump summoned the mob, gathered the mob, and lit the fire for this attack.”
The impeachment trial is expected to begin the week of Feb. 8. But Republican Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) believes the impeachment, on the day it reaches the Senate, is null and void.
Paul initiated a vote on Jan. 26 on whether to proceed with the Trump impeachment trial, and only five Republican members of the Senate voted to continue the Trump impeachment, with most Republican senators supporting Paul’s challenge to the constitutionality and legality of this impeachment proceeding.
Paul told his colleagues, “This impeachment is nothing more than further dividing the country, impeaching a former president, an ordinary citizen, isn’t that the exact opposite of the unity that their Democratic Party claims to have?”
