Today in impeachment news, words are hard and long meetings where only white men talk are tedious.

Here is all the shit we couldn’t cover today:

  • Today’s impeachment hearings introduced a bombshell: We’ve all been pronouncing Kyiv incorrectly. According to this very helpful explainer, the key-ev sound we’ve all been making when ordering chicken is not the noise, closer to keev, made by Ukrainians when naming their capital. Good to know! [Twitter]
  • The other bombshell: Trump yells into the phone about things that could get him impeached. [Vox]
  • Rep. Jim Jordan thinks Adam Schiff knows who the whistleblower is, and Rep. Devin Nunes knows a bunch of buzzwords. [Politico]
  • Eric Trump would know from boring.
  • And what it’s like to be desperate and off-putting.
  • Aides think now is probably not a good time for Trump to fire anyone. [Washington Post]
  • But they’re just fine with making up rules for keeping asylum seekers out of work. [CNN]
  • Bernie ate a salad. [New York Times]
  • Save us, Liz.

Here are some tweets the president was allowed to publish:

This has been Barf Bag.
