On Principles & Values: Not an impartial juror about impeachment, at all

Senators in an impeachment trial are required to take an oath promising to be impartial. But Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said he is "not impartial about this at all." He has guaranteed Trump's acquittal, telling Fox News host Sean Hannity there's "zero chance" the president will be removed from office. In a criminal trial, lawyers probably would keep someone off the jury if he declared as little impartiality as McConnell. Source: USA Today analysis of impeaching Trump Dec 30, 2019
