Klobuchar is one of those senators on the list, so she will be pulled off the campaign trail for a little bit. as well, michael bennet from colorado, although he is a little bit lower tier. so i think it will be interesting to watch and see if joe biden or pete buttigieg, the mayor of south bend, indiana, if they capitalize on those two top tier senators absence in the remaining days before iowa. >> i want to move to something that was written in the "new york times," and mentioned a second ago,...

Government, with investigating corruption. that is inherently within the authority of the president, and the department of justice to do, and that is their responsibility. >> here is the thing. the transcript of the july 25th phone call does not indicate that president trump brought up the issue of broad government corruption. when trump asks zelensky for the favor, his focus turns to crowdstrike and a debunked conspiracy theory suggesting ukraine meddled in the 2016 election and despite promisi...

Divided it can never be united again. lets get something straight. thats not what i think. and thats not what the country thinks either. last time i checked, this was called the united states of america. and anyone who starts off saying we cant bring america together is just throwing in the towel. theyre saying everything donald trump has been saying, the divider in chief, theyre saying he has already won, but theyre wrong. >> all right. joining me in washington once again, deputy news editor fo...

Trial, which is all up to 51 senators. at this point it is enough to say that the requests would be quashed, what is interesting is the upcoming role of chief justice john roberts, head of the supreme court, who will be presiding over the senate trial, he could rule in democrats favor, and that it would be up to senate republicans to overrule him, even though he is a republican appointee. there is a lot of contingencies there, but we can definitely see something like that perhaps coming along. >...

From minnesota, who says he is opposed to impeachment. most of the rest of them will likely vote for impeachment. there might be a few stragglers, but theres no assurance that congressman van drew is going to win election or even renomination, as a republican. it is a republican-leaning district. in southern new jersey. i bet a lot of other republicans who have worked their way up through the party, are now angling to that, and probably salivating over the chance to run against him. so he may ha...

His record. it was about his history. when elizabeth warren was the focus it was medicare for all. what do you think is going to be the focus when it comes to mayor pete with regard to some of his weakness weaknesses? is it his lack of experience? >> yes, its going to be his relative youth and lack of experience. it will be interesting to see how far the other candidates go with this. one of his rivals amy klobuchar of minnesota has suggested if he were a female candidate with that comparable le...

To know who the whistle-blower is to be invalid, because without the whistle-blower complaint, we wouldnt be talking about any of this. >> and republican senator ron ron johnson shed more light on the leg work being done by himself and white house vizers to convince president trump to release military aide to ukraine. >> from my standpoint, i understand that most of president trumps advisers wanted the military aid released. and they were trying to figure out some way shape or form to convince p...

At for, from these testimonies? is there a likelihood that any new information will be learned from them? >> one thing im going to be watching is actually not as much what the witnesses say, although thats important, but we have an idea whats coming from them, but how the questioning is actually conducted. part of the problem democrats have had to date, particularly with the mueller hearings, a few months ago, is theyre all over the place. they interject, they get five minutes each, they dont pa...

They realize they just want to get the hearings started in the next few days or so. bolton is waiting, he says, for the courts to act on this, but it seems like he wants to testify, whether he just wants to get the truth out there, he wants to get back at the trump administration, at the president directly, whatever his motives are, he seems eager to do it. thats fascinating. i have a feeling he may end up testifying in the end of all of this. arthel: david mark, thank you very much. we leave it...

Personally involved in many of tenths -- events meetings and conversations about which you have already received testimony as well as many relevant meetings and conversations that have not yet been discussed in the testimonies thus far. now, president trump says that he will release the transcript of a second phone call he had with the ukrainian president zelensky, potentially on tuesday. thats one day before public testimonies are are scheduled to start on capitol hill. eric? eric: ellison, tha...
