My understanding is that the articles have to be physically passed from the House to the Senate before they can be acted on by the Senate. I'm not aware of any time limit on this either.

Hopefully, McConnell understands his "Sole power to try." There's no Constitutional requirement that be be "sent" anything. Convene the trial. Dismiss for lack of... well, anything.

I would assume the articles and votes would be posted on the congress website. Just print the dam thing out in the senate and run their trial. If pelosi doesn't have an representative for the dem congress there for the trial their dam fault.
