Trump goes on Twitter tear as Pelosi readies articles of impeachment

With House Speaker Nancy Pelosi preparing to send articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump to the Senate next week, the president aired his grievances Saturday in a customary morning Twitter spree.

After a weeks-long standoff between Democrats and Republicans over parameters of the impeachment trial and whether key witnesses would be called to testify, Pelosi on Friday signaled her intention to deliver the impeachment articles to the Senate.

The two articles of impeachment against the president relate to his efforts to solicit foreign interference in the 2020 election by withholding military aid and a White House meeting from Ukraine to encourage the country to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a 2020 rival, and his son Hunter Biden.
