White House deputy press secretary Judd Deere has issued a statement in response to movement on Capitol Hill to impeach Trump for a second time.

“As President Trump said yesterday, this is a time for healing and unity as one Nation. A politically motivated impeachment against a President, who has done a great job, with 12 days remaining in his term will only serve to further divide our great country," the statement read.

Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska said in an interview with the Anchorage Daily News that she wants Trump to resign and questioned whether she would remain a part of the Republican party.

"I want him to resign. I want him out. He has caused enough damage," Murkowski said.

She attributed the violence at the Capitol Wednesday to Trump and said that if the Republican Party cannot separate itself from the president she questions her place in it.

"If the Republican Party has become nothing more than the party of Trump, I sincerely question whether this is the party for me," she said.

After directing questions on impeachment to Congress, Biden said he thinks the "quickest way" for Trump to be removed from office is with his own inauguration on Jan. 20 and it's a "good thing" Trump isn't showing up.

"One of the few things he and I have ever agreed on. It's a good thing, him not showing up," Biden said. "Because he has clearly demonstrated -- he’s exceeded even my worst notions about him. He's been an embarrassment to the country, embarrassed us around the world -- not worthy, not worthy to hold that office."

"If we were six months out, we should be moving everything to get him out of office -- impeaching him again, invoke -- trying to invoke the 25th amendment, whatever it took to get him out of office, but I am focused now on us taking control," he added.

Biden said he hasn't spoken with Vice President Mike Pence but that he'd be "honored" to have him at the inauguration.

House Democrats are expected to charge Trump with inciting insurrection in an impeachment article that will be released on Monday, according to the latest draft of the charge obtained by ABC News.

A single article of impeachment, "incitement of insurrection," charges Trump with "willfully inciting violence against the government of the United States" with comments at the rally outside the White House that "encouraged—and foreseeably resulted in—imminent lawless action at the. Capitol," according to a draft.

It also makes note of Trump's threatening call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger.

At least 153 Democrats planned to co-sponsor the measure, as of Friday afternoon.

Trump has been quiet Saturday after Twitter announced Friday evening that it had permanently suspended the president's account.

"After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them -- specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter -- we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter wrote in a statement.

Trump's final tweet said he would not be attending Biden's inauguration.

After Twitter's announcement, Politico reported that the president went "ballistic" and “[scrambled] to figure out what his options [were].”

Hours after his suspension, Trump released a statement criticizing the ban and teasing a possible new platform.

"I predicted this would happen," he wrote in part. "We have been negotiating with various other sites, and will have a big announcement soon, while we also look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the near future. We will not be SILENCED!"

"Twitter is not about FREE SPEECH. They are all about promoting a Radical Left platform where some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely," he added.

Trump had attempted to post the same statement on Twitter using the official @POTUS account, but the platform deleted the thread, saying users who are banned cannot post from other accounts.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blasted Twitter Saturday, comparing the ban of the president to something that would happen in China.

"Silencing speech is dangerous. It’s un-American. Sadly, this isn’t a new tactic of the Left. They’ve worked to silence opposing voices for years. We cannot let them silence 75M Americans. This isn’t the [Chinese Communist Party,]" he wrote on Twitter.

Former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley also took to the platform to draw a comparison to China writing, "Silencing people, not to mention the President of the US, is what happens in China not our country. #Unbelievable"

The White House announced Thursday that the president planned to spend the weekend at Camp David before notifying reporters that the trip was canceled. The president has nothing on his schedule Saturday.
