Found out there was a difference of opinion about this trump-zelensky call, some officials like colonel vindman listened and were very alarmed and thought it was improper, but others like to morrison who is vindmans boss listen to it and were not alarmed. do not think any improper thing had happened. the interesting thing about today is this is the first time we have heard from the latter part, because satirical witnesses this morning, vindman and jennifer williams were democratic witnesses as h...

Inappropriate or improper in demand. finally, on vindman, morrison said -- and i think this may be significant going down the road -- that he was warned about vindman judgment. i dont have more on that but he was -- vindman went outside the chain of command, and this would conflict or undercut vindmans opening statement about always respecting the chain of command, especially on these issues like ukraine, harris. >> harris: catherine herridge, thank you very much. >> youre welcome. >> harris: th...
