It’s Monday.

83 day’s ago, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced that the House was opening a formal Impeachment Inquiry into President Donald Trump.

Last week the House Judiciary Committee held *three hearings to vote on the Articles of Impeachment against President Trump. The two Articles, one for Abuse of Power, the other for Obstruction of Congress passed the Committee 23-17 in a party line vote.

*the hearings, can be found, here, here, and here.*

The House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) filed the House Judiciary Committee Impeachment Report along with the two Articles of Impeachment on Sunday night ahead of the full House vote expected sometime this week.

The House Judiciary Committee posted key excerpts from the Report, on Medium, on Monday.

For Monday the President has tweeted so far 8 times and retweeted 36 times.

The video the President is quoting is maybe two President Trump supporters confronting Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) accusing the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee of breaking his oath to office.

On December 12th, the New York Times published an article regarding the upcoming Presidential general elections debate between he and the Democratic nominee for President.

According to two people familiar with the discussions, “President Trump is discussing with his advisers the possibility of sitting out the general election debates in 2020 because of his misgivings about the commission that oversees them.”

From the article:

Less of a concern for Mr. Trump than who will emerge as the Democratic nominee is which media personality will be chosen as the debate moderator, according to people in contact with him.

At a state-of-the-race campaign briefing in Arlington, Va., the president’s advisers declined to comment on what their plan was for the debates. One senior adviser to the president seemed to wince at the question, and said it was not something advisers were prepared to discuss until next year.

3 years ago they were forced to publicly apologize for modulating my microphone in the first debate against Crooked Hillary

According to the nonprofit organization Commission on Presidential Debates statement issued on September 30th, 2016, there was a tech-glitch with then-Candidate Trump’s microphone during the first debate between he and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Their whole statement is one sentence long.

Regarding the first debate, there were issues regarding Donald Trump’s audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall.

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) the Ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee in the video clip saves a blown-up Trump book cover from falling over on stage during an event.

As a reminder Nunes is suing a fake cow and Twitter, because the cow mocks him on Twitter.

Richard Jewell was falsely accused of being responsible for the Olympic Park bombing that occurred on July 27th 1996.

In February of 1997, Jewell, who passed away in 2007 due to heart failure shared his story with Vanity Fair.

Jewell’s name is once again in the spotlight following the release of the Clint Eastwood film “Richard Jewell.”

His widow, Dana Jewell, told Fox News regarding the film and the renewed attention that her and her family are happy for him, adding that it’s been very, very difficult.

My family and friends and I — we laughed and we cried, we cried a lot. I wish Richard was here to see this… My mom, I think, described it best, ‘It was almost like going to his funeral and feeling those same emotions… me and my family are grieving again.  But we’re happy for him but its very, very difficult.
