States? >> from the applause there you can see this works for the audience thats listening to him except for the fact its not true, what the president just said. the idea, and hes been singing this since he tried to corruption thing and it didnt work, he then moved to the whole im holding out so the europeans would do more for ukraine. the europeans have always done more for ukraine since the beginning of this crisis with russia. >> yeah. we put together with the europeans this entire strategy o...

Move itself as evidence of a cover-up, according to a person familiar with his testimony. but he said he became disturbed when a few days later eisenberg instructed him not to tell anybody about the call especially because it was vindmans job to coordinate the interagency process with regard to ukraine policy. nbc news and "the washington post" have since confirmed that reporting. also breaking tonight, house democrats have scheduled outgoing energy secretary rick perry to provide testimony to t...

Possibility of losing their power or perhaps being criticized by him and instead of a arguing the substance because they cant. you cant listen to the evidence and think anything other than this president is guilty as sin. what they do instead is argue process. now they are actually trying to say, some of them, oh, nothing to see here. it is no problem that the president abused his power. it is perfectly okay that he withheld military assistance that we approved in law in order to get a foreign c...

Theyre going to try to pivot to say, well, yeah, this is what he said but its not impeachable or its not illegal. but this is a complete contradiction to so many of the things theyve said in the past during the russia investigation they were denying -- they were saying foreign interference would be wrong but trump is innocent. they cant say hes innocent now because the evidence is too overwhelming. and thats why they just dont know what to say. >> and were seeing a crack amongst conservatives, j...

Hearing sooner than we think. like with rick perry its important to know we dont know if many of these witnesses will actually appear for their closed door depositions. if precedent holds most of them will, but nothing is guaranteed with this administration. last night intelligence committee chairman adam schiff said the committees will start releasing the transcripts of all these closed door depositions, depositions from diplomats, military advisers and foreign policy experts that have yielded ...

Certain story and changes his story later, there is some suggestion that there is a lack of truth there. but i think that impeachment unlike criminal prosecution is ultimately a political process. and so if he can win in the court of public opinion he may be able to win in the impeachment battle, as well. so i think thats the game hes playing. hes good at it, and im sure hell continue to try to distract people from the real facts. >> barbara mcquade, thank you. congressman ro khanna and ben rhod...

You hide things when you worry that theres a problem there. and so the mere fact hes storing it in this special safe and that he is asking vindman not to speak about it suggests he knows theres something problematic about it. >> i dont know if you ever experienced things like this, but how would this have been handled? how should this have been handled? vindman heard something that was a concern to him and it sounds like as a military man he had a sense of process about him, he went to the nscs ...

Respect in many respects really become sycophants to this president, they cower in fear of losing power because of him. instead of arguing the substance, because they cant, you cant listen to the evidence and think anything other than that this president is guilty as sin, what they do instead iss ig a is argue process. now theyre saying, its perfectly okay that he withheld military assistance that we approved in law to get a foreign country to investigate his political opponents. its perfectly o...

Does any of this matter in the end? >> it could. you know, anything he says, anything he tweets are admissions that can be used against him later. if he locks himself into a certain story and changes his story later, there is some suggestion there is a lack of truth there. but i think that impeachment unlike criminal prosecution is ultimately a political process. and so if he can win in the court of public opinion he may be able to win in the impeachment battle as well. so i think thats the game...

Phone call or a perfect phone call, whatever it is. the judge andrew wrote an op-ed in which he weighs in on this. he says with the process soon to be as republicans have demanded and with the proof of impeachable offenses plain to see to what will the presidents allies resort as a defense? they will claim the federal crimes of soliciting campaign assistance from foreign governments and bribery arent impeachable offenses and that trump was misunderstood because he exaggerates all the time and of...
