Page 337 - Ned News Today

Concerned about the vote itself. it isnt particularly high, but the white house is concerned about something that i think ned was just alluding to there which was the degree of strength and vociferousness of republican defense of the president. i think there will be zero republican votes for this tomorrow, there might be potentially one or two, but we think probably zero, the president wants to see a little more than that from his republican defenders in congress, and he really feels like republ...

Covers the space where donald trump said there are tapes of joe biden. "the new york times" reporting tonight suggests that the president might have been referring to videotape of joe biden in 2018 in a panel discussion at the counsel on foreign relations. describing how the obama administration dealt with ukraine and attempted to get ukraine to strengthen its investigation and prosecution of corruption. leading off our discussion tonight is democratic congressman shawn patrick maloney of new yo...

Pence and their allies have offered for the past few weeks, which is theyre just interested in fighting corruption in ukraine and wherever it exists, they just want to fight corruption. what they want to do is take the focus away from their interests in vice president joe biden as much as possible. and you sort of see that playing out with the way they handled this rough transcript as well, where whats left out and ned makes a very good point, some edits from vindman werent left out and some wer...

Collusion. its just another witch hunt. they are discrediting the investigators, the democrats in this case, like they discredited mueller and discrediting the witnesses similar to the way they did in the mueller investigation. thats really this white house playbook that were going to continue to see. to the point i think anna and ned were making in terms of the presidential support, the president would always make more support for his republican allies, more storming of the hearing committee la...

Biden in 2018 in a panel discussion at the council on foreign relations. describing how the obama administration dealt with ukraine and attempted to get ukraine to strengthen its investigation and prosecution of corruption. leading off our discussion tonight is democratic congressman shawn patrick maloney of new york, a member of the house intelligence committee and he attended colonel vindmans deposition today. and also ned price, of the national security council in the obama administration. an...

Number there suggests this was never finalized. this document was never finalized in the system. and ultimately what that means, at least what my hunch is that this cover-up started before colonel vindman report, or whether the cover-up just started so quickly that the transcript was put on ice and it wasnt in touch from there. >> edward mcmullen, your reaction of what "the new york times" is reporting about the transcript not being accurate, what weve heard from congressman maloney that within ...

Risk of what they will do more prod broadly. there are countries like the baltics that have long tried to defend themselves from russian aggression. our nato allies meaning that if russia was being unkind to one of these countries, we would have to rush to contribute. untold sums of money, resources, to protect both our allies and our partners from russian aggression which this kind of behavior only invites. >> already, ambassador ned, thank you so much. on your screen, were seeing colonel vindm...

>> it is fascinating, remember the president brought linds grahlindsey graham with him to the world series. our eye is staying on the hill for vindmans arrival, but i want to bring in an excellent group to discuss all of this. ned price served as nse spokesperson. ambassador, you have seen the opening statement from alexander vindman, whats your big take away? >> i think he is in a very long tradition of distinguished army officers whose careers have taken them to combat zones. this to me is a r...

Think that sondland would want to be in touch with a lower. what he is saying is quite different from what he is saying. this process depends on people telling the truth, and there have to be consequences. so from what i understand of ambassador sondland, who is a political appointee, he is not someone that is frankly understands anything about this, but i think he might want to be consulting a lawyer. >> and he is ambassador to the eu, the ukraine is not part of the eu. what is your take as far...

Various literary agents about writing a book and donald trump uses a book to settle scores. so beyond whatever happens with bolton on capitol hill in the coming days or weeks with regards to the democrats impeachment inquiry, you can bet that in the coming months and years hell be trying to settle scores with his former boss, president trump. >> he has a long memory. in my haste, ned price is also with us, msnbc national security in school analyst and former special assistant to president obama....
