| House Democrats' impeachment inquiry proceedings were temporarily paused today as lawmakers paid their respects to Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., who died last week and laid in state at the Capitol. |
| But fret not, OnPolitics reader - just because there were no scheduled impeachment inquiry depositions today does not mean the news cycle dominating Washington was halted completely. |
| It's a light day though, so we'll be quick: |
