Reporting on the Arizona rally tonight from CBS News:

President Trump is rallying supporters in Phoenix, Arizona, on Wednesday night, while former New York City mayor Mike Bloomberg takes his first shot on the Democratic debate stage. The president is on the second day of his West Coast swing through California, Nevada, Colorado and Arizona ahead of major primaries.

Mr. Trump has been bashing Bloomberg on Twitter as the Democrat rises in the polls, thanks in large part to the hundreds of millions of dollars he’s spending on television ads.

“What Mini Mike is doing is nothing less than a large scale illegal campaign contribution. He is ‘spreading’ money all over the place, only to have recipients of his cash payments, many former opponents, happily joining or supporting his campaign. Isn’t that called a payoff?” the president posed on Twitter Tuesday afternoon.

Time: 7 pm ET
Location: SNHU Arena, Manchester

Reporting on the rally tonight from CBS News:

President Trump travels to New Hampshire for a rally on the eve of the New Hampshire primaries Tuesday, where CBS News’ latest poll shows a close race between Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg, the candidates who finished at the top of the Iowa caucuses last week.

In the CBS News Battleground Tracker poll released Sunday, Sanders had 29% support, compared to Buttigieg’s 25%. The former South Bend, Indiana mayor’s support has shot up since January — his numbers are 12 points higher going into the primary.

Mr. Trump will be on the GOP primary ballot, facing former Massachusetts Governor Bill Weld and former Illinois Congressman Joe Walsh, although Walsh dropped his presidential bid last week. In 2016, he won the GOP New Hampshire primary, although he lost the state to Hillary Clinton in November.

Mr. Trump rallied in New Hampshire in August, attracting a large crowd at Southern New Hampshire University. As was the case in August, Mr. Trump is likely to tout the strength of the economy one of the primary arguments for his reelection.

Reporting on the final day of the trial from CNN:

Sen. Doug Jones, an Alabama Democrat facing an uphill reelection battle in 2020, said Wednesday morning he will vote to convict President Donald Trump on both articles of impeachment.

Jones was one of a handful of senators whose vote was still in question on the verdict of Trump’s impeachment trial, which will come to an end with a vote Wednesday that’s all but guaranteed to end in an acquittal.

The Senate will vote at 4 p.m. ET for each of the two articles of impeachment — abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The outcome is a forgone conclusion: Senate Republicans have a 53-47 majority in the chamber, and so far no Republicans have said they will vote to remove the President from office. A two-thirds majority is required for conviction.

The final vote tally is still an open question, with a handful of senators who have not said how they are voting.

“After many sleepless nights, I have reluctantly concluded that the evidence is sufficient to convict the President for both abuse of power and obstruction of Congress,” Jones said in a statement explaining how he will vote.

What: State of the Union

Date: Tuesday, February 4, 2020

Time: 9 p.m. ET, 8 p.m. CT

How to watch: The 2020 SOTU address will be carried live on all broadcast and cable news channels including ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and Fox Business

Reporting from CBS News:

It will be only the second time a State of the Union address will be delivered while the Senate is holding an impeachment trial. In 1999, President Clinton made no mention of the impeachment trial during his second-to-last State of the Union on January 19. Mr. Clinton was ultimately acquitted on charges of obstruction of justice and perjury by the Senate.

The Senate is scheduled to hold the final verdict vote on the impeachment trial on Wednesday.

The State of the Union will be held a day after the Iowa caucuses this year. Mr. Trump has two Republican challengers, former Massachusetts Governor William Weld and former Congressman Joe Walsh of Illinois, but neither poses a substantial threat to the president in Iowa or nationally. The president won the Republican caucuses in Iowa Monday.

Watch prior days:

The impeachment trial of President Donald Trump began on Tuesday, Jan. 21, after a weekslong impasse over how the Senate trial would proceed, and debate over the rules stretched nearly 13 hours.

Reporting on day ten of the trial from NBC News:

The Senate faces a pivotal vote Friday afternoon on whether to call witnesses in President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial, potentially raising the question of whether Chief Justice John Roberts could cast a tie-breaking vote.

In a climactic moment Thursday night, Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, a key Republican swing vote on the question of whether to call ex-national security adviser John Bolton and other witnesses, said he would not support the additional testimony because, he said, while the House managers had proven their case, the charges against Trump do not meet the constitutional standard for an impeachable offense.

The impeachment trial of President Donald Trump began on Tuesday, Jan. 21, after a weekslong impasse over how the Senate trial would proceed, and debate over the rules stretched nearly 13 hours.

Reporting on day nine of the trial from The Hill:

The Senate on Thursday is set to conclude a marathon question-and-answer session as it moves toward a turning point in President Trump’s impeachment trial.

Senators are expected to reconvene at 1 p.m. after spending approximately 10 hours, including breaks, on Wednesday to ask more than 90 questions of both Trump’s legal team and House impeachment managers.

As of the end of Wednesday, senators had used roughly eight hours of the 16 total hours that the rules resolution set aside for the question-and-answer session.

Under a deal announced by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), questions alternate between Republicans and Democrats.

In a break with the Senate impeachment trial so far, senators were allowed to speak on Wednesday to note that they had a question and announce if it was from multiple senators.

The questions were then passed to Chief Justice John Roberts, who read out the question and which side it was addressed to.

Roberts has asked both sides to limit their answers to five minutes, and interrupted Trump’s legal team and impeachment managers several times on Wednesday to let them know they had reached their time limit.

Wednesday’s session was chocked full of opportunities to try to read the tea leaves on which way undecided senators in both parties are leaning.

The impeachment trial of President Donald Trump began on Tuesday, Jan. 21, after a weekslong impasse over how the Senate trial would proceed, and debate over the rules stretched nearly 13 hours.

Reporting on day eight of the trial from The Hill:

Senators are preparing to take the reins of the impeachment trial on Wednesday after largely being relegated to the sidelines of the floor proceedings in the first week.

After six days of opening statements from House managers and President Trump’s team, senators will start asking questions of both sides at 1 p.m. on Wednesday.

The question-and-answer session is expected to be stretched over two days, with senators getting a total of 16 hours to ask questions, before moving to a vote on Friday on whether or not to call witnesses.

Under a deal announced by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), questions will alternate between Republicans and Democrats. Wednesday’s session is expected to last eight hours, not including breaks.

McConnell also doled out advice to both senators asking their questions as well as to House managers and Trump’s team for how to answer them: Get to the point.

“During the question period of the Clinton trial, senators were thoughtful and brief with their questions, and the managers and counsel were succinct in their answers. I hope we can follow both of these examples during this time,” McConnell said Tuesday.

Senators aren’t allowed to speak during the trial. Instead, they are submitting their questions in writing. The questions will first be fielded through leadership on both sides, who have said their main object is to weed out duplicates or repetitive questions.

The questions will then be passed, alternating between parties, to Chief Justice John Roberts, who is presiding over the trial.

President Trump speaks in Wildwood, New Jersey, for a “Keep America Great” campaign rally.

Date: Tuesday, January 28, 2020
Time: 7 p.m. ET
Location: Wildwoods Convention Center, Wildwood, New Jersey

Reporting on the rally from ABC News:

Amid the ongoing impeachment trial in the Senate, President Donald Trump will leave Washington and head to the Democratic stronghold of New Jersey to rally for a congressman who refused to vote for impeachment as a Democrat and then switched parties.

Trump’s rally in Wildwood, N.J. Tuesday night takes place in newly-minted Republican Rep. Jeff Van Drew’s district, who, after switching parties, declared his “undying support” for the president.

And while the rally at Wildwoods Convention Center is in Democratic stronghold of New Jersey, Trump supporters have lined up around the block more than 24 hours before the president is scheduled to speak— a not so uncommon occurrence at the president’s campaign rallies.

The Wildwood rally serves multiple purposes for the president. Trump will look to tie Van Drew’s Democratic exodus to a larger argument against the party’s impeachment push. Van Drew, who will travel with the president on Air Force One to the event, bucked his own party by voting against impeachment in the House. On Tuesday night, the president will tout that move to his constituents.
