Now that the House of Representatives has impeached President Donald J. Trump for alleged high crimes and misdemeanors, proceedings will shift to the Senate, which has the “sole Power to try all Impeachments” under Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution.

The House of Representatives impeached President Trump for abuse of power, by a vote of 230-197 (1 present, 3 not voting), and for obstruction of Congress, by a vote of 229-198 (1 present, 3 not voting), on Wednesday, making President Trump the third president in American history to be impeached. Next, President Trump will face a Senate trial for "high crimes and misdemeanors" which requires a vote of two-thirds of senators to convict and remove the president. But first, the House must transmit the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate. As of Friday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wouldn't say when she would do so as she seemingly waits for some assurances about the trial procedures from Senate Republicans.

"The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present."
