Just months after the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report, the White House finds itself under fire from a new front: an impeachment inquiry.  Who was on that July 25th call between President Trump and President Zelensky? What was promised and who was pressured?

We'll bring you all of our exclusive reporting -- from the halls of Capitol Hill to Maiden Square in Kyiv.  Along the way, you'll get insight from legal analysts and historians, politicians and principals -- those who are driving the developments in this rapidly-unfolding story -- all as we count down the days until an impeachment vote and a possible senate trial.
