Trump impeachment: A timeline of events
Donald Trump has become the third US President in history to be impeached by the Democrat-controlled US House of Representatives, setting up a trial in the Republican-controlled Senate that will decide whether he remains in office.
On Wednesday night, the House voted on two articles of impeachment – first, accusing the President of abuse of power, second, obstruction of Congress.
The first article was approved by a vote of 230-197, while the second received 229 to 198 votes.
