House Speaker Nancy Pelosi arrived at the Capitol Wednesday morning dressed in all black. When asked about how she feels, she said "sad."

Turns out, a number of her colleagues are also wearing black to mark the "solemn" occasion. Democrats have also been told not to clap or cheer if the articles pass later today.
Note: @SpeakerPelosi is wearing black. One of her colleagues told me several of the female Democrats did that intentionally to signal it is a somber day #impeachment

Great acting everyone.
Literally, a majority of Dems in 2018 ran on "Send me to congress so we can impeach the motherfucker" https://t.co/x9uQE8brbR

Nancy Pelosi calls impeachment a “solemn & prayerful” occasion
Cedric Richards didn’t seem to think so
Here he is watching golf during the impeachment hearing
This just goes to show how seriously they take overturning 63 million votes

No one is buying Pelosi’s “somber, solemn” performance.
