Throughout their presentation House impeachment managers confirmed how rioters violently breached the US Capitol and attacked law enforcement officials.
“The Democratic Home managers have been organized,” and “made a compelling argument,” Bill Cassidy stated after the vote. He also added, “President Trump’s attorneys have been disorganized and did a poor job presenting arguments.
