House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced on Wednesday that Reps. Jerrold Nadler and Adam Schiff will be among the impeachment managers who will press the Houses case against President Trump during a Senate trial.
Today is the day that we name the managers, we go to the floor to pass the resolution to transmit the articles of impeachment to the Senate, she said.
Nadler, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Schiff, the head of the House Intelligence Committee, played crucial roles in the Houses impeachment inquiry into Trump last fall.
Others include Reps. Zoe Lofgren, Hakeem Jeffries and Val Demmings, Jason Crow, Sylvia Garcia.
The House managers are expected to personally deliver the articles to the Senate later Wednesday.
White House counsel Pat Cipollone and Jay Sekulow, Trumps personal lawyer, will lead Trumps defense.
Pelosis announcement comes just hours before the House will vote on releasing the two articles of impeachment for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress to Senate so a trial can get underway.
The speaker has been holding up delivering the articles since the House voted on Dec. 18 to pressure Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to release the framework of how a trial would be conducted, call witnesses to testify and not hold a vote to dismiss.

Call his staff member and Blowy and the IG, and then demand that he be called. He’ll have heard every word that they said, and let slip a few things himself on cross examination, and his demeanor will betray him as always once he’s on the stand. Can Tom Shillue conduct direct?E)
I doubt that they’re capable of embarrassment.
Only trolls like eeyore 90 constantly attack our own and cause discord.
LOL. Seems some of us would rather shoot the messenger than face the reality of the situation. The GOP Senate has done nothing but aid and abet the Deep State coup for 3 years. That won’t be changing now.
Really? And where you be when Trump gets acquitted, no doubt trolling some other place.
If you set the bar any lower for the GOP controlled Senate it would be in the dirt.
-1000000! Get lost troll we are on to you and fully understand your modus operandi!
LOL. Just stating the facts at hand. Denial isn’t just a river in Egypt.
Hit the road. You’re through! We are on to you.
Is there something in particular I wrote you take issue with? Or just interested in personal attacks and pinging up a posse? Alex, I’ll take the later for $1000.
I can’t wait!
Since when do Reps get to do the Senate’s job?
Bwaaaaa hahahahahahaaaaa! Double down on the stupid, Nanzi!
We were talking about the impeachment. But the Senate is also passing the judges that are recommended by Trump as well. A GOP controlled Senate is the only way to get the Trump agenda done, you would have the Democrats in control.
