Trump Impeached — Front Pages From The U.S. And The World

The wind of impeachment, on Dec. 19
The wind of impeachment, on Dec. 19

President Donald Trump became the third president in American history to be impeached. In a vote almost exclusively along party lines, Democratic-controlled House of Representatives charged Trump the high crimes of abuse of power and obstruction of justice following the President's alleged pressure on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy to investigate former Vice President and political rival Joe Biden.

Hearings will now move to a trial in the U.S. Senate, where it appears highly unlikely that Trump will be convicted and removed from office, as the 100-member body is made up of 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats and two independents, and a two-thirds majority is required for conviction.

Still, the impeachment is a moment of U.S. political history and a defining black mark on Trump's presidency. Here's how it looked Thursday on American and global newspaper front pages:

When Racism Poisons Italy's Culinary Scene

This is the case of chef Mareme Cisse, a black woman, who was called a slur after a couple found out that she was the one who would be preparing their meal.

TURIN — Guess who's not coming to dinner. It seems like a scene from the American Deep South during the decades of segregation. But this happened in Italy, in this summer of 2023.

Two Italians, in their sixties, got up from the restaurant table and left (without saying goodbye, as the owner points out), when they declared that they didn't want to eat in a restaurant where the chef was what they called: an 'n-word.'

Racists, poor things. And ignorant, in the sense of not knowing basic facts. They don't realize that we are all made of mixtures, come from different racial and ethnic backgrounds. And that food, of course, are blends of different ingredients and recipes.

The restaurant is called Ginger People&Food, and these visitors from out of town probably didn't understand that either.
