A storm of impeachment-related intrigue besieges the nation's capitol. Congressional Democrats are assembling a case for the removal of President Trump, and the future of the administration hangs in the balance.

So naturally, there's a bunch of people on the internet trying to make money by gambling on how that will pan our.
