Today I read this from New Jersey Joe
McConnell should declare something like this:
“Because the articles of impeachment have been made publicly available, the Senate deems them ‘delivered’ — the House has six hours for their managers to present themselves to participate in the process. Otherwise, we will begin without them, and no one will be allowed to join the process once we’ve started.”
They can do this, but McConnell cannot deem it, they have to vote to change senate rules, which currently require formal transferrance and assignment of house managers....

But there aren’t any house managers; everyone’s gone on vacation for two weeks.
