Impeachment hearings can be such a drag—um, literally.

Today, November 13, marks the first day of the highly anticipated televised impeachment hearings for Donald Trump on Capitol Hill. It seems like everyone in Washington, D.C., is there to watch the drama surrounding the anti-LGBTQ POTUS unfold in real time, including New Jersey drag queen Pissi Myles.

NBC News' Heidi Przybyla tweeted out a photo of the fabulous queen showing up for the House Intelligence Committee's hearing, joking in her caption about how nothing in D.C. surprises her anymore.

Twitter had a field day with the pic, with many joking that the queen was actually Rudy Giuliani donning drag again:

“It’s a crazy day in Washington! I’m flipping my wig over the high energy proceedings today," Pissi told NBC News. "Tensions are high, and the bar for who’s allowed in The Longworth House is very, very low.”

Pissi will be broadcasting live on Twitter for Happs, the first open-source live news network, but let's hope she gets some TV screen time during the hearings. And let's be honest, a drag queen will be one of the least ridiculous things we'll see on Capitol Hill this week.
