Hello from Washington. I'm not Chuck Todd. I'm Keri Gan.

Filling in as your guest host, while Chuck rests his voice because as you can imagine, he

has been talking a lot on TV in the last week or so. So I will do my best to fill his role

glad that you're able to be here. Lots and lots to talk about. I want to get to the politics

of impeachment. But first, I'd be remiss if I didn't know it. We're just over a week
