“On January 13, 2021, Donald Trump became the first president to be impeached twice. The charge was incitement of insurrection, based on repeated ‘false statements’ challenging the 2020 election results and his January 6 speech that ‘encouraged — and foreseeably resulted in — imminent lawless action at the Capitol.’ Because Trump’s term ended on January 20, his acquittal on February 13 made him the first former president tried by the Senate.”
