Americans woke Thursday in anticipation of an historic and potentially explosive U.S. Senate hearing featuring former FBI Director James Comey.

And the memes are already flying. “Is it too early in the morning for a drink with my popcorn?” one commenter tweeted.

“Waiting for the covfefe to hit the fan,” another wrote.

Testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee, Comey is expected to detail interactions he had with President Trump prior to being suddenly fired last month.

The Senate Intelligence Committee is investigating possible connections between Trump’s presidential campaign and Russia during last year’s election when the president defeated Hillary Clinton.

Trump abruptly fired Comey on May 9 amid the ongoing FBI investigation into Russia potentially meddling with the election. At the time, CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Tobin called the move a “grotesque abuse of power.”

Here are some of the best memes to emerge so far.
