As long as this process plays out, if the president can attack lieutenant colonel vindman with a purple heart, he can attack anyone. he will. >> and ned, this can be said of all the witnesses today. no matter what you think of their particular credibility points you might want to challenge, they all have stepped up where john bolton has refused. i mean, when you look at tim morrison, hes in exactly the same status. i mean precisely the same status as john bolton. he no longer works in the govern...

Political opinions. i think she is a career state department employee detailed to help us out on specific areas of her expertise. but i dont know her political affinity. >> dana: did you have any interaction with lieutenant colonel vindman of the national security council? lets move on to what the president was saying about the usmca. he is saying nancy pelosi is basically holding up a vote on usmca to try to get votes for impeachment and that that is inappropriate and that she is incompetent. t...
