If you were a child of the '90s, the Clinton impeachment scandal prob opened your eyes to quite a few things...
There were a lot of details I wasn't aware of though, and Impeachment: American Crime Story sets out to shed some light on the whole affair.
Episode 1 dropped last night, and people took to Twitter with their hot takes.
Linda Tripp dominated this episode, and the Paulson stans were out in full force, naturally.

When you go from the White House to a cubicle #ACSImpeachment
11.
women supporting each other coming from Linda? #ACSImpeachment
12.
Linda Tripp really blew up the spot and everyone’s livelihoods because she was transferred from the White House to the Pentagon where she received a 20k salary increase I jus- #ACSImpeachment
13.
Not Linda telling her coworker to mind her business. Girl. #ACSImpeachment
14.
If only Monica would have just said hi and kept it pushing #ACSImpeachment
Recognizing that Paula Jones was the spark that started the fire escaped my child-brain at the time.

#ACSImpeachment *Paula Jones telling the hotel story* The Lawyer:

Paula Jones husband was seeing dollar signs meanwhile she was being ripped apart #ACSImpeachment
17.

18.
“It takes a dramatic turn.” 🍆 #ACSImpeachment
I'm not alone in doing some course correction, and reflecting on this massive cultural event through the goggles of today's world.
19.
When I was younger I always thought Bill Clinton only sexually harassed Monica…Chileeeeee I was wrong lol #ACSImpeachment #ImpeachmentACS
20.
The fact that they let Bill Clinton get away with doing this to multiple women. Yet Monica Lewinsky got all the blame even now. #ACSImpeachment
21.
Britney Spears might be released from her conservatorship, and people are finally taking Monica Lewinsky seriously. It’s a good day for demonized women of the ‘90s. #FreeBritney #ACSImpeachment
22.
Monica Lewinsky acting as a consultant on this movie where the late Linda Tripp is basically shown to be a vile backstabber with no redeeming qualities whatsoever seems like some sort of glorious karmic retribution and/or retaliation…and I’m here for it all #ACSImpeachment
23.
There are no heroes in this story. #ACSImpeachment
24.
I just know Hillary is gonna be looking at Bill every Tuesday night like #ACSImpeachment
I'm curious how the series will unfold...and am strapping in for this time machine to the '90s!
25.
Watching #ACSImpeachment, I love the little details in set designs that really bring the time period alive.
26.
slimfast had the late 90s in a mean chokehold #acsimpeachment
27.
The 90s technology. #ACSImpeachment
Although...
28.
I just saw a tweet complaining about spoilers for #ACSImpeachment. Incredible.
LOL!
