A cart full of snacks is wheeled through the Senate subway on Tuesday — the first day of former President Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial.

Senators, who serve as jurors in an impeachment trial, are in for a long haul in the coming days. Impeachment requires senators to be in the chamber — or, during the pandemic, in one of the other sanctioned areas for watching testimony — throughout its entirety.

Trump is charged with “incitement of insurrection” after a mob of his supporters stormed the Capitol in an attempt to overturn November’s election result.
