House Democrats began the process of impeaching President Donald Trump for a second time, setting up a vote this week unless Vice President Mike Pence and the cabinet seek to remove him from office. Democrats aim to both eject Trump from the White House and prevent him from ever holding office again (though it’s possible he’s already barred from seeking a second term). A four-page Congressional resolution includes a single article accusing the president of the United States of “incitement of insurrection” for his role in the run-up to the assault on the Capitol by his supporters, which resulted in the killing of a police officer. It also cited Trump’s effort to get Georgia’s secretary of state to void President-elect Joe Biden’s victory there. “In all this,” the resolution states, “Trump gravely endangered the security of the United States and its institutions of Government.” —David E.

What’s Joe Weisenthal thinking about? The Bloomberg news director has some good news. Maybe. We learned on Friday the sobering news that the U.S. lost 140,000 jobs in December as the resurgent virus depressed service-based industries. But while it was the worst month for employment since last spring, the news wasn’t all bad, Joe says. Even with the downturn, the level of permanent unemployment actually fell in December, as other cyclical industries like manufacturing actually added jobs.
