moves to impeach donald trump to gain ground the groundwork being laid to take action as early as monday. twitter stamps out attempts by the president to communicate with followers after permanently suspending his account. lo i'm sam is a band this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up debris is found in waters north of indonesia's capital where a passenger jet carrying 62 people has gone missing. more contagious coronavirus

variant drives more record infections now new evidence emerges of the long term effects. now for years twitter was down trumps go to platform to promote his policies that sank critics and spread false words now it's suspended the u.s. president's account permanently it's the latest consequence of an attack on capitol hill by trump's supporters which could also see him face a 2nd pietschmann. on the reports from washington d.c. . there will be no more tweets from donald trump twitter on friday night suspending his account permanently saying the decision was taken due to the risk of further incitement of violence trump had 88000000 followers and said he used his account to

go around the mainstream media to get his message out but he was increasingly tweeting or re tweeting misleading or false information sometimes even disproven conspiracy theories this is a very big deal i will say it's had a sense of inevitability remember twitter did temporarily suspend his account back on the 2 days ago when the the violent mob marched on the capitol and they required him to delete 2 tweets and then they reinstated him and he made a few more tweets but if you remember when they said that they said further violations may result in permanent suspension or a language to that effect in the halls of congress calls are growing for trump to be impeached a group of democrats has circulated the draft of the articles of impeachment against trump that is expected to be taken up in the house as soon as monday it accuses trump of high crimes and misdemeanors by inciting an insurrection and says trump has demonstrated he will remain a threat if allowed to stay in office the white house called the articles of

impeachment politically motivated and will only further divide america he must be removed from office house speaker nancy pelosi said if trump doesn't resign she'll move forward with impeachment is said to have yet to sign off on the final wording of the impeachment language in a letter to her congressional colleagues on friday called trump unhinged and said she spoke to a top military commander about ensuring trump's access to the nuclear codes was limited in his final days in office so he couldn't launch a nuclear war with only 11 days left in trump's presidency it's unclear if that will be enough time for congress to vote on impeachment. yet trump is facing the prospect of being the 1st president in u.s. history to be impeached twice in already less a 48 hours we have over $150.00 co-authors of this article of impeachment and

that does show i think very strong momentum we also have the fact that people vote or people die in this attempted coup and it's something we can't just ignore. the pressure on trump to step down is also gaining steam the latest call comes from republican lisa murkowski a senator from alaska who told a local newspaper that the president is no longer fit to serve out the individual terms on friday president elect joe biden announced the final group of his cabinet secretary picks and said fighting the pandemic in creating jobs remains his top priority when asked if trump should be removed from office he said this i've had a number of my republican colleagues former colleagues serve in the senate for a long time calling they are many of the more eyes outraged and disappointed and embarrassed and mortified by the president's conduct as i am and democrats.

want as for the rioters that set off the crisis several were arrested on friday including this man richard barnett seen here in a widely circulated photo sitting at nancy pelosi desk the department of justice has issued 13 federal indictments related to the rioting and more arrests are expected in the coming days trump tweeted from his official presidential account hours after his personal account was taken down he said twitter was trying to ban free speech and silence not only him but also his supporters minutes later those tweets were also taken down by the social media giant. washington. let's cross over now to washington d.c. where. standing by in this is i guess the atmosphere must be really intense right now you know sammy it really is i think it's obviously it's been

a couple of days but you definitely get the sense that people are still coming to terms with exactly what happened i mean this is the building that most americans assumed was one of the most secure in the country if not the world and we were here wednesday and the speed to which that building fell is really quite remarkable people still piecing together exactly what happened how it happened members of congress say there is going to be a very lengthy investigation they expect lots of people will lose their jobs over this 3 already have but i think there's still growing concern about what's to come next since the election and i've never seen anything like it in washington pretty much every building across the sea at least centralized d.c. has been boarded up for fears of violence that's still the case here on capitol hill the national guard is here thousands of national guard members a big fence has been put up around the capitol there's a really heavy police presence because there's

a fear that it's not over. and social media supporters are saying they're going to do this again they're saying january 17th is the day they're going to try to attack the capitol here and state capitals cross the country so even though a few days are passed i think the shock of it all is still a very real thing. now as well we've got this impeachment process sent to unfold on monday so take us through what we can expect from that. well i think you're going to see possibly as early as monday the house will take it up and it's likely to pass they just need a simple majority and even though the democrats lost seats in this last election they have enough for a simple majority if they can keep their caucus involved then it goes to the senate now mitch mcconnell is already laid out he said we can't really take it up before january 19th or 20th in unless all 100 senators agree that seems unlikely given there's a handful of trump loyalists still and so you might be asking so if he's out of

office january 20th doesn't go away no there is precedent you can still impeach him after he's out of office the point of that would be they can then vote if he's impeached to make sure he's barred from ever holding office again. and that was partly calling an indonesian passenger plane has gone missing shortly after taking off from the capsule rescuers have recovered well they suspect may be debris from a crash the 737500 is operated by a budget. more than 60 people were on board. let's go live to jessica washington she's at jakarta airport is any clearer now what happened to this plane and what the faith has of those on board. well what we're still this is still a developing situation we're actually just hearing from the ministry of
