The White House is handing out Christmas cards as the House debates impeachment

It seems nothing is going to stop the White House from handing out Christmas cards — not even the looming impeachment of the president.

As the House of Representatives began debating two articles of impeachment — abuse of power and obstruction of Congress —against President Trump on Wednesday morning, White House staffers began handing out Christmas cards to members of the Senate.

Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut, tweeted a photo and description of the "package" he received today. Not only did senators get a White House Christmas card, but they also got a copy of Trump's scathing letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi protesting his impeachment.

True story: there is a White House staffer going around the Senate delivering to each office, as a package, the incoherent, scathing Pelosi letter AND...wait for it...a giant 16x12 White House Christmas card (along with, implausibly, a second smaller Christmas card).

Representatives are expected to vote on each article this evening, CNN reported. If the vote passes, Trump will become the third president in history to be impeached.
