Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), the declared leader of the anti-Trump resistance, told MSNBC Sunday that, while the Senate trial may ultimately acquit President Donald Trump, Republicans — and the president — should expect an ongoing impeachment effort, with more “activity” to come later this year, as several House investigations wrap up.

The current impeachment process is based on a phone call, said to have occurred between President Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, concerning the Ukrainian oil and gas company, Burisma. According to the Democrats’ narrative, Trump withheld much-needed foreign aid from Ukraine as a way of forcing Ukrainian officials to investigate Burisma and one of the members of its board of directors, Hunter Biden, and whether former Vice President Joe Biden used his power to wave off prosecutors sniffing around Burisma’s assets.
