The House impeachment managers and team defending former President Donald Trump reached an agreement Saturday that will prevent additional witnesses from testifying.
The agreement followed revelations from Washington Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler that Trump rejected House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s pleas to demand that his supporters leave the Capitol on Jan. 6 and a subsequent, unexpected Senate vote to call witnesses. As a result of the agreement, the trial entered four hours of closing arguments, setting up a final vote later on Saturday.
