![After the impeachment vote, although he didn't mention the impeachment, President Donald Trump called on Americans to overcome the passions of the moment, and join together as one American people in a video released by the White House Twitter account](https://s.wsj.net/public/resources/images/FN-AM326_Trump__M_20210114031945.jpg)
The US House of Representatives voted to impeach outgoing President Donald Trump 232 votes to 197 following the violence and siege of the Capitol last week after it was stormed by a mob of pro-Trump supporters.
It is the second time Trump has been impeached by the House – making him the first US president that has suffered the humiliating process twice.
