Summary

The Daily Signal's White House correspondent, Fred Lucas, had a front row seat to the impeachment of President Donald Trump, an impeachment that Lucas says began even before Trump took office. Lucas’ newly released book, “Abuse of Power: Inside the Three-Year Campaign to Impeach Donald Trump,” dives deep into the left's plot to remove the president from office and the key players involved in the partisan effort. Lucas joins the podcast to discuss his book and how the American people should view Trump’s impeachment. Also on today’s show, we read your letters to the editor and share a good news story about a 107-year-old woman who has beaten both the Spanish flu and COVID-19.
