In a protracted presentation on Wednesday, House impeachment managers pressed their case that President Trump should be removed from office, accusing him of enlisting the help of a foreign government to damage political rivals.

Democrats continued to insist that testimony from witnesses like John R. Bolton, the former White House national security adviser, was critical to conduct a fair trial. But much of the first day of arguments was spent rehashing well-known details of the impeachment inquiry and reviewing evidence and video clips that House Democrats have presented as a narrative arc documenting a coordinated pressure campaign against Ukraine.

Those arguments will continue on Thursday.

The basics.

What we’re expecting to see: The seven members of the House will continue delivering their opening arguments, building on the case against the president that they began on Wednesday. After spending about eight hours in session on Wednesday, of a maximum of 24, they have time to flesh out their case on Thursday.

When we’re likely to see it: Managers are expected to take the floor at 1 p.m., and are likely to stay for another eight hours, wrapping up about 9:45 p.m.
