Meet the impeachment managers who will argue Democrats' case against Trump
 [CBS] Nine members of Congress, appointed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, will soon walk through the Capitol and deliver the article of impeachment against former President Trump to the Senate. These members, known as the impeachment managers, will prosecute the case against the former president in the Senate. Pelosi said the House will officially send the article of impeachment against Mr. Trump to the Senate on Monday. "We are respectful of the Senate's constitutional power over the trial and always attentive to the fairness of the process, noting that the former president will have had the same amount of time to prepare for trial as our managers, Pelosi said in a statement on Saturday. "Our managers are ready to begin to make their case to 100 Senate jurors through the trial process." The House voted on January 13 to impeach Mr. Trump on the charge of incitement of insurrection, just one week after a mob of the president's supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in an attack that left five people dead.
