When the U.S. Senate hears the charges against Donald John Trump, they will have to do so without checking for his tweets every five minutes.

The Senators will be in the chamber without electronic devices. At least one Senator says it will be refreshing. From a CNN story:


Lisa Murkowski, an Alaska Republican, praised the ban on phones as "beautifully old fashion."
"I'm glad that we can put these devices down, I'm glad we will be sitting in our chairs, I'm glad that we are going to be focused on what's in front of us at that time. I think it's important, it's beautifully old fashion, and I think we should stick to it," she said.
