A fast-moving impeachment inquiry hands Trump's lawyer a subpoena. Kids take a snow day in Montana. And a "Clueless" star is arrested.

Here's the news to know Monday.

But first, what is TikTok? That's what actress Reese Witherspoon enlisted her 15-year-old son to help her figure out. The video they created together for the social media app is perfection.

Trump's lawyer ordered to hand over all Ukraine records

House Democrats subpoenaed Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, on Monday for documents related to his dealings with Ukrainian officials, the latest step in the impeachment inquiry. "A growing public record indicates that the president, his agent Rudy Giuliani, and others appear to have pressed the Ukrainian government to pursue two politically-motivated investigations," three committee chairmen wrote to Giuliani on Monday. Giuliani publicly acknowledged his efforts to press Ukrainian government officials to open an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading candidate for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

But wait, there are a lot more developments where that came from:

•	Trump opened the week of impeachment turmoil with attacks on his accusers – including a suggestion that an investigator be arrested for "treason."
•	Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said the Senate would have "no choice" but to hold a trial if the House voted to impeach Trump.
•	The whistleblower remains anonymous: Trump said Monday he is trying to learn the person's identity.
•	Former Sen. Jeff Flake called for Republicans to announce that they will no longer support the president's reelection campaign.
•	Poll: Americans approve of the impeachment probe by a slim margin, but they're split on removing the president from office.

Hello, winter, my old friend?

Kids in Browning, Montana, were gifted with a rare September snow day Monday after a historically early winter storm pounding parts of the West dumped 4 feet of snow on the town. Barely a week after the end of summer, snow swept across parts of California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Nevada and Utah. While folks in the West dig out from the "winter" storm, people being scorched in the South ask how much longer can this endless summer last?

Garden City Harvest grower Brihannala Morgan gazes over her five-row plot after harvesting the last of what she could from the plants in snow that hit Missoula, Mont., Sept. 29, 2019. Morgan got the last of her tomatoes and peppers, hoping they will ripen off the vine at home rather than freeze in the garden.

These powerful portraits tell stories of the migrant crisis

A colleague of mine, Harrison Hill, recently spent a day in LA immigration court to capture what it's like to face a judge and ask for asylum in the USA. He collected unique stories of why immigrants made such a strenuous journey and the obstacles they faced along the way. There was a lot of uncertainty and fear in the voices of the migrants, but also a sense of hope.

Jeffrey, a native of Honduras, was continuously persecuted for identifying as a member of the LGBT community. After being badly beaten by a Honduras gang known as A team, he migrated to the United States with his son. His journey took two months and along the journey, he stayed in four camps.

'Clueless' star Stacey Dash arrested for alleged battery

Two years ago, millions of people said #MeToo. Now what?

When #MeToo exploded in the fall of 2017, its most optimistic promise was that it would become more than a hashtag, more than a brief interruption in America's regularly scheduled sexism, more than a reckoning for famous men who abused wealthy, white women. There was hope those two small words signaled the beginning of meaningful change and, eventually, healing – a belief the silence was finally broken. Has #MeToo delivered? "People are paying more attention, but I'm not convinced that we're able or ready to behave differently about it as a nation," said Kristen Houser, chief public affairs officer at the National Sexual Violence Resource Center.
