“It was gratifying to see someone taking the Constitutional responsibility of their office seriously,” said Colbert, who said Schiff offered his arguments “clearly, passionately, cogently, and, I believe, courageously.”

The first of 2020 welcomed back a familiar face.
The 45th season of “Saturday Night Live” has been on hiatus for a month, and what a month it has been. The last episode aired just days after Donald Trump was impeached, and this week alone saw House impeachment managers presenting their case on why it would threaten the country’s security for him to stay in office. Naturally, the late-night sketch show addressed that from the moment it returned.
