It is Thanksgiving weekend in the US, a time when Americans remember all the things they are grateful for.
President Donald Trump is no doubt thankful that the first round of his public impeachment hearings have ended but the process is far from over.
The House Judiciary Committee is due to hold a new round of hearings in the coming days and Donald Trump and his lawyers have been invited to take part.
Committee Room 1100 on Capitol Hill has been one of the most closely watched rooms in the world in recent weeks as the venue for the impeachment hearings.
It's an impressive space. Chandeliers hang from high, vaulted ceilings. Portraits of past committee chairmen look out from the walls which are adorned with ornate plasterwork.
Last week, workmen de-rigged the infrastructure inside the room following the end of the first round of hearings, but while the cables and cameras may be gone the evidence that was heard there will be remembered for some time to come and could have big implications for the US president.
Donald Trump has been accused of trying to pressure Ukraine to announce an investigation into his political rival Joe Biden.
Over the course of two weeks, testimony from a series of witnesses backed up those claims.
Mr Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and has criticised some of the witnesses who testified against him.
He live-tweeted an attack against the former US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch as she was giving evidence, something which she described as intimidating.
Brett Bruen runs the Global Situation Room, a Washington-based communications agency. He was a US diplomat under President Barack Obama and knows some of the officials who testified before the impeachment hearings.
He said the attacks against witnesses were an effort by President Trump and Republicans to try to discredit the evidence being presented.
"While there was no one moment where you could say the case against the president was proven, in its totality what we saw was an enormous amount of evidence indicating wrongdoing by the president and wrongdoing by those around him including the Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney," Mr Bruen said.
Donald Trump has always fully expected to be impeached by the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives but then cleared by the Republican-controlled Senate.
For him to be removed from office, 20 Republican senators would have to jump ship and that's a very high bar.
Brett Bruen believes that many senators will come under pressure to vote for removal.
"There is a trial that will take place with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court on the floor of the senate and those senators have to listen to evidence and cast an innocent or a guilty vote," he said.
But right now Republicans are continuing to defend President Trump.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell recently repeated his view that Donald Trump's removal is highly unlikely.
"I can't imagine a scenario under which President Trump would be removed from office with 67 votes in the senate," he said.
Earlier this week Donald Trump took part in the traditional turkey-pardoning ceremony at the White House ahead of Thanksgiving.
He will be hoping for similar mercy from Republicans if he is impeached in the House of Representatives and put on trial in the Senate.
