WASHINGTON -- House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler, one of the lead architects of Democrats’ impeachment case against the president, announced Friday that he would not be present for the final phase of Trump’s Senate trial.

“I am sorry to not be able to stay in Washington for the conclusion of the Senate impeachment trial but I need to be home with my wife at this time,” Nadler wrote in a tweet Friday. “We have many decisions to make as a family. I have every faith in my colleagues and hope the Senate will do what is right.”

Earlier this month, Nadler issued a statement explaining that his wife had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in December.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest. I’ll put politics aside to kindly wish Mrs. Nadler success in battling this terrible disease.

I do not like this guy but pancreatic cancer is horrible. I don’t wish this on anyone and it is very hard on family, too.

Praying for Mrs. Nadler as she battles this. Also praying for Mr. Nadler. I don’t have to agree with his politics to recognize another human being in need.

Pretty sure Dems are using this as an excuse after what Nadler did last night.

He got taken to the woodshed.

She was dying of cancer yesterday also. Why leave today? The likely reality is that he got sh*t-canned by Schiff and Pelousy after upstaging Schiff last night.

I’d say more like he got a smack down from Schiff about his going to the podium yesterday. His wife was sick yesterday but he chose to attend.

I’m sorry his wife is dying and yes, pancreatic is the worst.
