they said accepting information from a foreign government is not necessarily impeachable. democrats blasted both arguments saying it would give the president free reign. there will be another eight hours of q&a on the senate floor. that will go late into the night. that sets up a likely vote on witnesses tomorrow which means they could vote on whether to acquit or convict tomorrow as well which means the whole thing could be wrapped up by the weekend. end. savannah >> kristen welker, thank you very much. you can see special coverage on most of the nbc stations starting today at 1:00 eastern. a good time for a boost. >> a teacher in nebraska was overcome with emotion when his students showed him how thoughtful he could be his favorite nike sneakers disappeared from his office. the kids pitched in more than $100 to buy him a new pair the teacher reads their card and starts to tear up when he opens
