Live Updates: Pelosi seeks House speaker reelection with slim Democratic majority

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced on January 11 that Democrats are looking to impeach President Donald Trump for “incitement of insurrection.” This is the first time in United States history that a sitting president would be impeached twice. The introduction of the impeachment papers comes five days after pro-Trump insurgents stormed the Capitol with a joint session of Congress inside to protest Joe Biden‘s certification as president-elect.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi‘s supporters want to know why, in the wake of a violent insurrection on Capitol Hill, 60 Minutes journalist Lesley Stahl chose to talk about her age. Pelosi had just finished talking about President Donald Trump‘s ties to Russia, when Stahl abruptly switched the topic to the “A word,” her term for age. “You’re 80. Your number two, Steny Hoyer‘s 81. Your number three, Jim Clyburn, is 80. Why haven’t you brought young people into the leadership?”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi revealed the condition of her office after protesters broke in Wednesday after storming the Capitol building. During an interview with CBS' "60 Minutes," Pelosi showed Leslie Stahl a door that had been damaged, and pointed to where her staff hid while those who broke in called out for them.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a "60 Minutes" interview that aired Sunday night that one of the motivating factors for some in the new effort to impeach President Trump and remove him from office is to eliminate any chance he has of being elected again. Last week’s riot at the U.S.

The House will be moving forward with a resolution to impeach President Trump, said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, referring to the president in a letter to colleagues as an "imminent threat" to both the U.S. Constitution and democracy.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that the House will take up a resolution on Monday calling on Vice President Mike Pence and the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment and “declare the President incapable of executing the duties of his office.”

President Trump is "deranged, unhinged, dangerous," and deserving of prosecution, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says in an interview scheduled to air Sunday night on "60 Minutes." The San Francisco Democrat sat down for a conversation with Leslie Stahl of the CBS News program last week following Wednesday’s siege of the U.S. Capitol by a crowd of protesters.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said that pro-Trump rioters who breached the Capitol on Wednesday "chose their Whiteness over Democracy."  "It has been an epiphany for the world to see that there are people in our country led by this president, for the moment, who have chosen their whiteness over democracy," the speaker said. Pelosi then turned to those who died from COVID-19, who were disproportionately minorities, she said.  "When that assault was taking place on the Capitol, 3,865 people in our country died of the coronavirus, many of them people of color because of the injustice of it all," Pelosi said.

Florida sheriff's deputies have arrested the man photographed carrying House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's lectern through the U.S. Capitol during Wednesday's riot.

The Arkansas man seen sitting in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office with his foot on her desk amid a violent riot inside the U.S. Capitol was arrested Friday, authorities said.  Richard Barnett, 60, of Gravette, was taken into federal custody and was expected to appear in court.

A laptop was purloined from a conference room during Wednesday’s Capitol building raid, an aide to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said Friday. Deputy chief of staff Drew Hammill said on Twitter that the laptop was only used for presentations, but he did not go into further detail about whether anything else was stolen from the speaker.

Richard Barnett, a Donald Trump supporter who went viral for sitting at Nancy Pelosi‘s desk during the recent siege at the U.S. Capitol, has been arrested.

Officials have released additional details surrounding the alleged crimes of four people who have since been hit with federal charges in connection with Wednesday’s riots and attacks on Capitol Hill. A senior Justice Department official said Friday that law enforcement took Richard Barnett into custody in Little Rock, Ark., after a viral photograph showed him sitting inside House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office with one leg resting on her desk.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said she has spoken to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley about protecting the nuclear codes from an "unhinged president."  Pelosi said she spoke to Milley Friday morning "to discuss available precautions for preventing an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes and ordering a nuclear strike." "The situation of this unhinged President could not be more dangerous," the speaker continued in a statement to colleagues.  Fox News’ request for comment from the Joint Chiefs of Staff was not immediately returned.  Pelosi is meeting with Democratic House colleagues Friday to discuss potential impeachment proceedings against President Trump.

House Democrats are drafting new articles of impeachment against President Trump following a deadly riot at the Capitol Wednesday in a failed attempt to stop Congress from certifying Joe Biden's presidential victory. Three sources confirmed to Fox News that Reps.

As calls grow for Donald Trump removal from office with just 12 days left in his term, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that she spoke to Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley about precautions that could be taken to prevent the president from accessing nuclear codes.

Calls by the top Democrats in Congress — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York — to remove President Trump from office by invoking the 25th Amendment demonstrate their profound ignorance of the Constitution.  In blaming Trump for "inciting" the criminal acts of those who attacked the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, the two Democrats are demanding that Vice President Mike Pence and a majority of the Cabinet declare that Trump is "unable" to perform the duties of the presidency.

Federal investigators are looking into pro-Trump demonstrators who mobbed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday in what some called a "coup attempt," but protester Josiah Colt, of Boise, said he just "got caught up in the moment." An image of Colt climbing down from the Senate balcony, then sitting in the seat reserved for Vice President Mike Pence went global during the unhinged riots. He thought at the time the chair belonged to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

Donald Trump is reported to be considering pardoning himself before leaving the White House in a fortnight.
