The House impeachment inquiry hits a roadblock. A former top Trump national security aide defies a subpoena and tells Congress he will not testify until a judge decides whether the impeachment proceedings are legitimate.

Plus, freshman Congresswoman Katie Hill is resigning amid allegations of improper relationships. She flipped her California district blue last year after 26 years of Republican control -- so brace for a bruising special election now.

And the President says the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi makes Americans safer. He defends his decision to give only Republicans a heads up on the U.S. raid, saying he doesn't trust top Democrats.

Today's Panel: CNN's Abby Phillip, Michael Bender with The Wall Street Journal, Melanie Zanona with POLITICO, and Molly Ball with TIME.

Also on the Program: CNN's Manu Raju and Kimberly Dozier
