At 80, Vermont's Sen. Leahy ready to run impeachment trial

Read full article: At 80, Vermont's Sen. Leahy ready to run impeachment trial

The Senate's longest-serving member, 80-year-old Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy, was taken to a hospital Tuesday evening for observation after not feeling well, a spokesman said. Now, Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont is stepping into one of his most visible and physically grueling roles: presiding over former President Donald Trump's second Senate impeachment trial. โ€œI had some muscle spasms," Leahy, 80, told reporters the morning after feeling ill in his Capitol office. Carle, Leahy's spokesperson, said Senate leaders have been discussing the trial process, and it is โ€œlikely to be limited in duration.โ€ Trump's first impeachment trial lasted almost three weeks. Leahy will preside as Senate president pro tempore, a largely ceremonial post that usually goes to the majority party's longest-serving member.

ANGERS, FRANCE - JUNE 07: Tony Rice of The Tony Rice Unit performs on stage during Day 2 of Angers Bluegrass Festival on June 7, 1987 in Angers, France. Rice died Friday at his home in Reidsville, North Carolina, according to International Bluegrass Music Association spokesperson Casey Campbell, who did not immediately provide additional details. โ€œMany if not all of the Bluegrass guitar players of today would say that they cut their teeth on Tony Riceโ€™s music. His last live guitar performance was in 2013, when he was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame. It was updated on Dec. 28, 2020 to correct that Tony Rice kept rattlesnake rattles in one of his prized guitars, not rattlesnakes.
