On this edition of Political Rewind, it has been one of the most consequential weeks in American politics. In just a few days, House Democrats went from a wait-and-see attitude on alleged misdeeds by President Trump to a full throttle embrace of collecting the evidence for impeachment. 

And through it all, Georgia's congressional representatives have rushed to defend or condemn the accelerated impeachment process.

We provide an insider’s look at how events have unfolded on Capitol Hill during these remarkable days from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Washington correspondent Tamar Hallerman.

Also, GPB’s senior correspondent Rickey Bevington gives us an up-close look at a man in the middle of it all – Ukrainian President Zelenskiy.
