Congress demands dismissal of ‘white-supremacist-in-chief’ as Trump impeached for second time
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi displays the signed article of impeachment against President Donald Trump in an engrossment ceremony before transmission to the Senate for trial on Capitol Hill, in Washington
