The charges will be heard in the Senate on Monday. That's the news I read.

I think I heard Pelosi would deliver them Monday, but it looks like it might be a week or two before the trial. They are trying to get Biden appointees before the Senate first. I can't argue with that. Tramp ain't going anywhere but the golf course anyway, so he won't be hard to find.

"Trump impeachment to go to Senate Monday, triggering trial" Associated Presss
"WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday that she will send the article of impeachment against Donald Trump to the Senate on Monday, triggering the start of the former president’s trial on a charge of “incitement of insurrection” of the deadly Capitol Jan. 6 riot.
Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer announced Pelosi’s intentions for a quick trial on the Senate floor Friday, rejecting Republicans’ proposal to push it to mid-February to give Trump more time to prepare his case. Schumer said there will be “a full trial,” and “it will be a fair trial.”
Senate Republicans are arguing in Trump’s defense that it is pointless, and potentially even unconstitutional, to try a president after he has left office. But Democrats say they have to hold Trump to account because of the gravity of what took place — a violent attack on the U.S. Congress aimed at overturning an election. If Trump is convicted, the Senate could vote to bar him from holding office ever again.
Once the impeachment article is sent to the Senate on Monday, the trial would have to start by Tuesday, under Senate rules, unless leaders come to a bipartisan agreement.

Whenever it starts I'll be watching.
Update: Trial starts February 8th per agreement between Senate party leaders.
