Presiding over Donald Trump's impeachment in a historic 12-hour session on Wednesday, House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi had pinned to her black outfit a gold brooch, sending a subtle message to the president that the Constitution gives
Congress the "sole power" to begin his removal from office.The House voted largely on party lines to charge the president with abuse of power and obstruction of justice, following an investigation that revealed Mr Trump had pressured
Ukraine for information on his political rivals ahead of 2020
elections in exchange for military aid.
