Here’s What Late Night Made of the First Day of Impeachment Hearings

The historic impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump kicked off its first day of public hearings on Wednesday, with Ambassador William Taylor and State Department official George Kent delivering testimony that even Fox News called “very damaging” to the top tangerine. Needless to say, the many talking heads of late night (even Jimmy Fallon!) had plenty to say about the proceedings, riffing on everything from Trump’s utterly careless blunders to his pretending to ignore the hearings. Catch up on all the jokes about this very serious matter below.
