NOW: A goup of anti-Trump demonstrators have staged a sit-in during a tour in the Capitol rotunda. They’re chanting “Trump is guilty,” “acquital is a coverup” and “honor your oath!” #ImpeachmentDay
They are 10 women, who are now being arrested by Capitol Police, and came to #DC to protest today’s expected Senate vote to acquit President Trump. #ImpeachmentDay
Police cleared the rotunda as they prepared to arrest the group. Everyone else on their tour — members of the same anti-Trump activist community — were escorted out. #ImpeachmentDay
I’m told the group who have been arrested will be taken down to #DC jail, but likely released today. This is one of many protests scheduled in the hours around the Senate vote, including a later demonstration dubbed #RejectTheCoverup outside the Capitol following the vote.

All 10 demonstrators arrested today have been released from jail, organizers tell me. They were charged with “crowding, obstructing or incommoding,” per Capitol Police. Per #DC law, it is illegal to protest in any Capitol building.
