Donald Trump wrote a letter to Nancy Pelosi. Or as someone suggested in Headlines today, Donald Trump yelled at someone who typed it up. Copies to the House and the Senate and available for the world to see at the White House. It's batshit crazy even for him.

It doesn't matter how loud Trump whines, Impeachment is inevitable now. The Rules Committee spent this evening setting the rules for debate in the morning. We'll be here with a live blog. There are a lot of Representatives who haven't gotten to yell at TV cameras yet and there will be six hours dedicated to that. Hopefully they'll vote tomorrow. We know how that will go.
