Reporter President Trump is standing behind thousands of iranians protesting on the streets after the government admitted they accidentally shoot down the ukrainian jetliner shortly after it took off in tehran. Videos of protests going viral what appears to be Iranian Security forces firing live ammunition and tear gas to break up protesters. The public backlash comes after the iranian government lied for days about what happened to the aircraft that crashed and killed every passenger on board, then tried to cover it up before vanely admitting that they did shoot down the plane. The president tweeting, his support of the people protesting and warning the iranian government saying quote, to the leaders of iran, do not kill your protesters. Thousands have already been killed or imprisoned by you and the world is watching. More importantly the usa is watching. Turn your internet back on and let reporters roam free. Stop the killing of your greater iranian people. The president continues to defend the decision taking out iranian general Qassem Soleimani saying this afternoon on the white house north lawn, that he was a terrorist that needed to be taken out after secretary of defense mark esper says the intelligence backs up the president s decision but esper would not specifically confirm that he had intel that four u. S. Embassies were imminent risk. But also, gop senator tom cotton saying on Fox News Channel that he did see intelligence supporting the move. Ive seen the intelligence he was plotting something large, something very dangerous. Whether it happened in a matter of weeks or a matter of days. We had exquisite intelligence only shared with the gang of eight. I understand the frustration of many members of congress. It was shared with that gang of eight. I spoke to one of briefers. One of the briefer, told me, most all members of the gang of eight believed the intelligence was persuasive as well. Reporter liz, this afternoon the chinese trade delegation landing in d. C. To sign the phase one china trade deal after the United States treasury removing china as a currency manipulator. Liz thanks so much for your reporting. Back to iranian people as hillary reported risking their lives again, thousands pouring into the streets against the Iranian Regime. As irans own politicians and irans official news agency saying now that lying to the public about iran shooting down that ukrainian plane was catastrophic. That officials who lie must be prosecuted.

Murderers, shouting death to the dishonest supreme leader, death to liars. Social media showed iran showing photos of general soleimani who many call a sadistic terror mastermind. Iranians avoid stepping on the American Flag out of respect. The debate. Who isthe right side of history . Nancy pelosi, Chuck Schumer, adam schiff, jerry nadler, president obama none of them for the fully supporting the iranian protesters. Many staying silent. Democrats continue the obama legacy turning a tone deaf ear to the oppression of iranian people. Watch nancy pelosi seemingly to dismiss the protests in iran. Saying there are Different Reasons why there are people in the street. The fact that this there were protesters in the streets before against the regime. After the taking out of soleimani, there were protesters in the streets joined together as you know, against us. That wasnt good. But there are Different Reasons why people are in the streets. Of course we would love to see the aspirations of the people of iran realized with a better situation there but escalating the situation, unless we have exhausted every other remedy. Which we havent . Well, we dont know that . Liz critics saying this is pretty lukewarm response from nancy pelosi. Bring in retired u. S. Marine Lieutenant Colonel dakota wood. Colonel, youre reaction . Liz, im kind of stunned by the silence and lukewarm support. If we look back at battle days of the cold war, ronald reagan, margaret thatcher, Pope John Paul ii banded together to talk about soviet repression and the same thing is occurring today in terms of this popular uprising. It is an amazing and inspirational moment when you see the protesters take to the street, at risk of their own lives, their livelihoods and family members to make a statement against the regime. This is mistake to focus on the iranian government response to shoot down the liner this is building. America taking out soleimani really showed the Iranian Regime is not untoughable and it opened a window of opportunity for them to express themselves at great hazard and the 90 couldnt do anything better than to support what is going on. Liz president joe biden, Amy Klobuchar speaking out to the protesters. President showed solidarity with iranians, saying iran dont kill your own people. Here he is today on this issue. Watch this. All the became sys were alerted. That is why we deployed additional troops to the region. Let me say this much, jake. Im glad were having this discussion. I would rather be here discussing this topic with you. I think it has been totally consistent. But here is what has been consistent. We killed soleimani, the number one terrorist in the world by every account. Bad person, killed a lot of americans, killed a lot of people. We killed him. And when the democrats try to defend him it is a disgrace to our country. They cant do that. Let me tell you it is not working politically very well for them. So we killed the number one terrorist in the world, soleimani and it should have been done 20 years ago. See you at the game. Thank you. Liz your reaction . Soleimani the chief architect of a web of organizations all designed to undermine local governments, intimidate and coerce populations and extend iranian influence throughout the middle east. So just as we would applaud taking down a drug cartel, drug lord and other terrorist masterminds i think this attack against soleimani was the right thing to do, it was the right moment to do it. Were seeing benefits of this, again, empowering the protesters to speak up against this regime that is in tehran. We need to provide them this kind of support coming from the white house. Liz irans street protests is ongoing off and on since the green revolution. That the Obama Administration ignored because president obama want ad legacy after iran nuke deal. Bloomberg news reporting a few years ago quoting from a new book at that time by wall street journal reporter jay solomon, obama feared demonstrations would sabotage the the secret outreach to iran and obama ordered cia to. Obama ordered cia to stand down here. Chuck schumer cited numerous problems with the nuclear deal in 2015 so iran would be a free to build a nuclear weapon. I want to move on to joe biden saying only way out of this is diplomacy. Your reaction to that . Diplomacy enforced on streets of tehran. If the regime is not acceptable to the good world order, we dont want to remove it by force. That would be disasterous, the change has to come from within. It will not come willingly with the regime stepping down. The people have to determine their own fate. That is what theyre doing in these popular protests. These are not paid by the government. Theyre speaking against the government at great risk to themselves as i already said. This is democracy in action. Isnt this something we should be championing an applauding and really trying to help push forward . At least rhetorically and diplomatically. Liz colonel, great to see you. Thank you for your insights, service to our country. Thanks for coming in. My pleasure, liz. Liz come back soon. More details from the border tonight, from the falling number of Illegal Immigrants apprehended to a pair of highstakes Court Rulings over building border walls. Fox news william la jeunesse has the story. Reporter the wall was a Major Campaign promise, what the administration has 100 miles in three years isnt much, liz but if you consider the lawsuits and efforts to stop it.

Liz to the latest on impeachment. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi taking aim at republicans warning that senators will pay a price if witnesses are blocked at a senate trial. This as nancy pelosi is expected to deliver the impeachment articles to the senate this week. Fox newss chad pergram joins us with more. Chad, great to see you. Reporter likewise. Tomorrow is a big day on capitol hill as pelosi meets with democrats to conduct the next steps on impeachment. They have to have a short vote to send the articles to the senate. That could come wednesday or thursday. They pack them in cherry boxes march them across to the capitol and the senate. We will learn the name of impeachment managers, prosecuting houses case in the senate. They must approve a resolution to receive the articles. If the house votes tuesday or wednesday the senate could start the trial thursday this weeks. The first day is ceremonial. The meat of the trial may not start until next week. Now there are 26 rules governing impeachment in the senate. If the senate does anything outside of that realm it must take a vote. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell says he has 51 votes to handle the things the way they did for president clinton trial. Senators must sit at their desk 24 hours total to hear the house managers present their case. 24 hours for the president s defense team to rebut the house. 16 hours for questions. At that point, they could go to witnesses. Senate impeachment rules dictate the trial starts every day one p. M. , saturdays included. Federal holidays included. Clintons trial consumed 100 hours in 1999. Republican senator Susan Collins working behind the scenes to forge an agreement on witnesses. Chuck schumer could engineer votes to put vulnerable republican senators facing challenging reelection campaigns on spot. Those include collins, thom tillis, cory gardner, and Martha Mcsally of arizona. Liz . Liz chad, thank you very much. Were tracking information coming in that president says pelosi and house intelligence chair adam schiff should testify. As even members of the media saying pelosis strategy is failing. That includes this Washington Post journalist. Watch this. She is clearly putting a positive spin on what a lot of democrats privately said was a failed strategy. She and Chuck Schumer minority leader in the senate set out number one try to get a commitment from mcconnell firsthand witnesses to have them testify in senate trial. She wanted to see a resolution about you know, how the whole proceedings would be governed. She got neither of those. Liz democrats credibility on impeachment getting worse by the hour. It is being called hurry up and wait impeachment. Pelosi finally moving on something she said herself would be divisive to the country. Look who is here. Republican ben klein, member of house judiciary. Good to see you, sir. Your reaction to all of that . Goes to show you nancy pelosi doesnt understand her power ends at the end of the House Chamber and where the senate begins. Mitch mcconnell takes over t wouldnt surprise me if she tried to follow the articles of impeachment down the hall and ask where her desk was in the senate. She is so anxious to play a roll in the senate. She is trying to leverage her power to get witnesses secured in a senate trial. But she is been sober over these last three weeks, learning that, that is not in the cards for her. She doesnt get to call the shots. Liz nancy pelosi went on abcs show, this week, left open the door to filing even more articles of impeachment. She is talking now about impeachment quote, forever, for life. So is impeachment now downgraded, degraded into a political weapon . Absolutely. She has lowered the bar for impeachment. Adam schiff lowered the bar to a point where it is Political Tool box for the majority to wield against a president. If they dont behave the way the majority in the house wants, they will charge him with abuse of power and that is going to go on forever now, hopefully well be able to restore it in a future republicancontrolled house but you know what . She has done enormous damage to the constitution and to the rule of law by pursuing this low bar for impeachment. Liz originally democrats claimed they had proof of bribery, even obstruction in the mueller report. Neither of those in the impeachment articles. Sir, polls show about half of voters dont support impeachment. Des moines register, new poll of iowans show that too. Why adopt impeachment articles and then demand that the senate do what the house didnt get the testimony of witnesses . She doesnt have any, you know what i mean . That is an issue there, right . Go ahead. Absolutely. Nancy pelosi wants the senate to do her job for her. Not only does she want to do the senates job, now she wants them to call witnesses that adam schiff couldnt get in the house, because he was so anxious to rush impeachment through, that they wouldnt wait for the courts. You know, that is, the joke is about this impeachment. She is refusing to wait for the courts to act. Then she goes to charge him with abuse of power and obstruction of congress. Liz lets show a context here. The polls seem to show American Voter sees the democrats have been wanting
