The Senate impeachment trial of former president Donald Trump, who stands accused of inciting insurrection, will resume Wednesday at 12 p.m. (ET). Watch live video below:
The prosecution and then the defense will have 16 hours each to present their arguments.
Democrats prosecutors, led by Jamie Raskin, are expected to show videos of Trump's supporters storming the Capitol -- and Trump's incendiary speech just before the riot.
"You'll never take back our country with weakness," Trump told the crowd outside the nearby White House, urging them to "fight like hell."
In return, his lawyers may present speeches by Democrats allegedly whipping up unrest, and will say Trump's speech is protected by freedom of expression.
Oral arguments will could end Friday, or extend into early next week.
