Impeachment is the headline everywhere, with the only story added to the news cycle being the deadly shooting in Jersey City, New Jersey.

President Trump lashed out at Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), while Congressional members took a more somber tone over articles of impeachment.

Shifty Schiff, a totally corrupt politician, made up a horrible and fraudulent statement, read it to Congress, and said those words came from me. He got caught, was very embarrassed, yet nothing happened to him for committing this fraud. He’ll eventually have to answer for this!
