The first comment from the Pope of the Vatican on the storming of Congress


"I was shocked that Americans are a people committed to democracy," the American newspaper "New York Post" quoted Pope Francis as saying.


The American magazine "Newsweek" revealed that more than 230,000 Americans had signed a petition calling for the removal of outgoing President Donald Trump from office.


The magazine said, that the petition was launched on the site "move on", and accused Trump of continuing to relentlessly spread conspiracy theories about the vote and elections, and actively work to manipulate the election results.


The petition was directed to both the US Senate and Representatives, and its goal is to obtain 300,000 signatures before it is sent.


While sources in the Democratic Party revealed that the US House of Representatives will provide materials to impeach the outgoing US President Donald Trump, next Monday.


The sources said, in statements to the American "Axios" website, that most of the demands now within the council call for Trump to be removed from his post immediately this week.


US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi stated that she had asked members to prepare materials to remove Trump from office, to be presented to the House this week.


US Rep. Adam Schiff added that the Democratic Party is moving quickly to impeach Trump due to the urgent circumstances for that, as Trump has become a threat to the country, in an unprecedented way.


The House of Representatives will vote to place the blame on Republican Rep. Louis Gawhart, who said that violence in the streets would be the way in the event that US President-elect Joe Biden was prevented from taking office.


While CNN revealed that the draft of accusations to Trump in order to impeach him, included the main accusation of incitement to disobedience.


Meanwhile, Republican Party leaders in the Senate are reluctant to inflame the situation and are not expected to support the Senate trial.
