The other. we saw that in the case of oliver north where congress immunized oliver north and that scuttled his testimony in his criminal case. they have to work carefully together and one hopes the lawyers are talking to each other if they want to go down those parallel tracks. >> frank what about the people watching who would be within their rights to say you guys, i thought the whole story, i thought the original sin was russias involvement in our election. all im hearing is ukraine? >> well, ...

That person is protected, doesnt lose their job, doesnt have any physical threats carried out. >> the fact it is, it is a mosaic of laws thats imperfect. even the best laws only offer sort of a compensation for lost career. the fact of the matter is, this is a sad comment on our society, when someone comes forward and speaks truth to power, even if theyre absolutely right, even if they save a thousand lives, theyre looked on as a snitch in their community, in their organization, and are quite of...

Week. focus is not synonymous with tunnel vision. new claims of wrong doing require a fresh look at the facts. and doing so doesnt undermine the impeachment inquiry. in fact, if the house does vote to impeach, they will still have to prove their case using the evidence they gathered during the inquiry to persuade frankly a mostly hostile senate. if they shorthand the inquiry, they will shortchange the american people. and it is that simple. back with me now are mark mckinnon and carrie cordero. ...

President. legally, he is under investigation by federal prosecutors in manhattan for allegedly violating these lobbying laws associated with his dealings in ukraine. in terms of his personal relations with the president, you do have to wonder if donald trump is right on the cusp of one of his famous 180s, where he is loyal to associates up to the point where it no longer serves his self-interest. the more details that emerge here with mr. giuliani, and the more information that we receive that ...

Particulars of this particular story. mr. giuliani has denied wrongdoing but he acknowledged e and his associates worked with ukrainian prosecutors to collect potentially damaging information about ms. yovanovitch, the ousted u.n. ambassador, including joseph biden and his younger son, hunter biden. federal prosecutors in manhattan said to be looking into whether or not giuliani broke lobbying laws in his dealings with ukraine. investigations are tied to two associates who were arrested as you p...

That appears to be the question at the heart of an apparent ongoing federal investigation into the former mayor of new york city, rudy giuliani. of course, you and i talked about this previously, this idea that there were two individuals that were picked up in new york. in fact, they were picked up at the airport here in washington over at dulles attempting to leave the country, so the question remains what is the mayors relationship with those two men. now, according to "the new york times," pr...

More lightning here. got to get going, david. >> rob marciano, get back inside. rob, thank you. we are going turn now to ths she had been told there was no wrongdoing on her part, but the president wanted her out. and tonight, 24 hours after two associate of rebecca jarvis were arrested, is giuliani a part of this investigation? what we have now learned. and heres abcs mary bruce. >> reporter: up until the very moment a defiant marie yovanovitch walked up to the capitol it wasnt clear if she w...

Assist yourself when youre the focus of an investigation by talking publicly. and it becomes a lot harder if youre talking to reporters all the time when congress, for example, wants to question you or investigators want to question you to say, oh, now im going to take the fifth amendment or something. so, i think what theyre trying to do is find sort of a soft landing for giuliani so that he can sort of save face and maybe recede into the woodwork a little bit. they dont want to have their pres...

>> yeah, weve actually been wondering in the office all week how long it would take for the president to distance himself, because not only is he making trump look even worse as part of this whole impeachment inquiry, but hes also lost the confidence of all of trumps republican allies, main republican allies, and those are the people, obviously, who are also in the presidents ear. so, we were really confident that this was going to happen, and it does seem like, as john said, because trump is so...

Out she wasnt allowed to attend they had that subpoena ready to go. ambassador yovanovitch followed the law there and has attended. its important to follow what the white house is going to do, what the state department is going to do as a result of her not following the orders of the secretary of state of, of her boss, and following the law here which is going forth because she was subpoenaed. because we know that the white house has put out some statement, some internal talking points to its al...
