House insiders very concerned about just how reckless rudy giuliani is still being. >> right. attorney general barr is far from alone. there are officials in the justice department, officials in the state department, officials in the west wing who all have expressed great concern about giulianis actions from earlier this year that they believe helped walk president trump up to the brink of impeachment, and now that hes still there. i talked to someone over the weekend who literally said that the...

And how seldom an impeachment is undertaken. the judge has committed a serious violation of the public trust, that in the phraseology of governor morris, one of the framers that the judge has so misdemeaned himself by violating the public trust that it necessitates his removal from the bench. >> necessitates his removal from the bench. adam shaf machiff saying this i bigger than politics. but that this is about what the senate must decide when faced with wrongdoing. >> todays testimony, it is am...

Doesnt work for them? listen, its appropriate to make sure that nothing was done wrong in ukraine and indeed thats what he was talking about. >> so its not so much about an investigation into wrongdoing by his own justice department. i hear you there. >> but thats what you said. i mean, thats what -- >> but he was talking to the leader of the ukraine, asking him, the leader of a foreign government, to do that investigation. theres a big difference. >> well, theres a big difference between what i...

From his attorney rudy giulianis brazen trip to ukraine this week to dig up dirt on political rivals. instead hes touting how much giuliani has allegedly found. >> rudy, as you know, has been one of the great crime fighters for many years, and his gotten back from europe, he has not told me what he found, but he also want to go to congress, and i hear hes found plenty. we should know one of the sources giuliani appears to have been met with a former ukrainian diplomat, who has pushed the debun...

And what we do -- >> well get to that. but i want to ask about the appropriateness of asking. >> the appropriateness of making sure that an investigation of anyone who had wrongdoing -- we know that joe biden was involved with ukraine, dozens of contacts with ukraine. at a minimum he should have recused himself for anything related to his son and i think you can agree with that. >> well let me ask you this. your fellow republican congressman max thornberry said the phone call was inappropriate. ...

Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it. >> and work with the attorney general. >> but here he did ask. you admit that, right? >> even with that, working with the attorney general, are you suggesting that someone who runs for president shouldnt be investigated? the presidents have been investigating president trump before he was elected and after he was elected and so somehow it doesnt work for them? listen, it is appropriate to make sure that nothin...

Admission of a bribery. >> nbc news asked giuliani what he hoped to accomplish in ukraine. he responded saying i will revite it when im ready and if this doesnt shake up the watch and get us to the cut out the years of corruption i might then agree with those who say its hopeless. well get to all that but first a look now at the case that democrats are making this week against donald trump. >> the president abused his power for his own personal political benefit at the expense of our national se...

July 25th. >> he should have recused himself from any involvement. its outrageous that hasnt happened. what we do know is that sdny and the fbi have opened up a criminal investigation into the ukraine affair. i think this is lost sometimes in the media that theres actually a parallel criminal track thats already begun. and i think that what my argument is is that congress should set up some other mechanism to refer for prosecution if they deem necessary, if looking at the evidence, those that pa...
