COVID-19 vaccine manufacturer Moderna says based on lab tests targeting coronavirus variants, it appears their vaccine does neutralize the strain from the U.K. once both doses have been given.

The impeachment of former president Donald Trump is inching closer to a trial in the Senate. Late Monday, a procession of House members carried the article of impeachment to the Senate. Trump was impeached earlier in January, the second impeachment he’s faced, for “inciting an insurrection” in connection to the riot that saw his supporters storm the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Jackson Proskow explains on why such a trial is still taking place even though he has left office.
