When the impeachment trial eventually reaches the Senate, will there be a sufficient number of Republican senators ready to vote for impeachment, so that the two-thirds majority is reached? Or will the threat to their chances of re-election via the anger of Trump supporters be enough to deter them?
Depends on their next election. Cruz did not need to do anything, he is safe for 6 years. Also, the senate is a dead end job. You can only become governor or president or a cabinet post.

Oh God, I touched everything—there’s no way we have time to get this whole place cleaned,” said Trump, who emptied a bottle of bleach over the Resolute desk as he and a team of aides worked frantically to scrub every surface, doorknob, and square inch of the building of evidence the president was ever there. “Geez, what was I thinking? This is such a rookie mistake. I should have been wearing gloves these past four years. Oh God, and there are cameras too, aren’t there? Someone get Roger Stone over here. Maybe it’d be easier to just burn the whole place down.” At press time, Trump was carefully planting a couple of Melania’s hairs in the Oval Office.

Abandoned.
Congressional leaders, including House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, will skip President Trump's departure ceremony in Maryland tomorrow morning in favor of attending mass with incoming President Joe Biden ahead of his inauguration, congressional sources familiar with their plans tell Axios.

Why it matters: Their decision is a clear sign of unity before Biden takes the oath of office.

some preliminary impeachment trial steps..the process things...may take place Thu or Fri. I think the trial is next week.
Schumer and McConnell were expected to discuss how to structure the trial. Biden has said he hopes the Senate can devote part of its day to impeachment and another part to confirming his Cabinet.

In his letter, McConnell suggested the formal impeachment process should not start until Thursday because of Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday, NBC reported.

Senate committees started to hold hearings for the president-elect’s nominees on Tuesday. They include Treasury Secretary-designate Janet Yellen, Secretary of State nominee Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary-designate Lloyd Austin. Panels could vote to send their nominations to the Senate floor in the coming days.

He isn't coming to Scotland that's for sure.

Steve Bannon and Lil Wayne among more than 140 pardons and commutations made by Trump before leaving office

On early Wednesday, Trump issued 73 pardons and 70 commutations, including Steve Bannon, Lil Wayne, Kodak Black and Kwame Kilpatrick. However, the list issued by the White House does not include the outgoing president or any of his family members, despite earlier reports. Rapper Lil Wayne pleaded guilty in federal court in 2020 to possession of a loaded handgun. Bannon, Trump's former chief strategist, was charged last year with defrauding donors of more than a million dollars to support the building of the US-Mexico border wall.

Trump will land in FL when Biden is sworn in
https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/ ... adf44d7e28
Trump's departure aboard Marine One from the White House South Lawn will likely be visible and audible to the Bidens, who will spend the night before the inauguration at Blair House, across Pennsylvania Ave. from the executive mansion. Its use was offered to them by the State Department rather than the Trumps, who refuse to make contact with the incoming president and first lady.

Trump and the first lady's departure from the White House South Lawn is expected to look relatively normal. Mustering a large crowd at the White House would be difficult given the intense security in Washington.
