1. U.S. law enforcement arrested these two businessmen, both named in the whistle-blower account that set off the House impeachment inquiry against President Trump.

Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas, Ukraine-born American citizens, were accused of engaging in a scheme to funnel foreign money to candidates for federal and state office. The indictment also linked them to the removal of the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine.

They were detained Wednesday night at Dulles International Airport, where they had one-way tickets to Europe.
