Reporter parnas claims he was the man on the ground for Rudy Giuliani and the president himself. Tasked with making sure that ukraine opened an investigation nto the bidens. Democrats concede that parnas concede tredibility issues. He was recently charged with issues. Campaign finance in noions. Theparnas says in no Uncertain Terms that the president and even the Vice President knew what he was up to and that theres more evidence to come. President trump knew exactly hat was going on. Dowas aware of all of my movements. I wouldnt do anything without consent of Rudy Giuliani or the president. Reporter Rudy Giulianis former associate lev parnas insists he was working on President Trumps behalf when he presid pressured ukrainian leaders. It was never about corruption. It was strictly about burisma andh included joe biden and hunter biden. He denied knowing parnas. He he lied. Whoatched Football Games arnasher, ate hot dogs. E knew exactly who we were. Reporter parnas says while he was pushing for an investigation into the bidens, his connection to the president was made clear to the ukrainians. We put rudy on the phone. Rudy relayed to him we were there on behalf of the president him we nited states. Reporter in a statement to msnbc, giuliani denied doing ent to parnas said his connection to that. Hite house was evident when the Vice President cancelled his trip to president zelenskys may 20th inauguration. Parnas warned zelensky that no topwould attend without the investigation announced.

Democrats say the evidence bolsters their case that the senate trial should include new andesses and documents. I dont know how any member a this body could pick up a newspaper this morning, read this new revelation and not onclude that the senate needs access to relevant documents like these in the trial of President Trump. Reporter today the seven house managers who will essentially serve as the prosecutors in the senate trial are going to walk the articles of impeachment to the senate where they will read the articles out loud on the nature senate floor. Chief Justice John Roberts will be sponsor in and he in turn swear in the 100 senators who are going to serve as jurors. When the trial begins next week senators will have to sit quietly. They can only listen. They cant talk to one another, rials than bring in reading aterials that dont pertain to opletrial. Boy, nancy, peoples heads were spinning in washington yesterday. Lets go back to parnas. I felt i need a tea cup with my re we finger. Tat are we hearing about these new details from what he said and how that could affect the senate trial . Reporter its a real bomb shell because hes the first individual to say point blank that he was working to pressure the ukrainians on behalf of the president and with his knowledge. Others have couched it they said that this was their understanding that this is what the president wanted or that they heard it second hand. Some senate republicans, however, are questioning the timing of all this. They want to know why it wasnt included in the house impeachment investigation and that might lead some of them to argue that they shouldnt consider it when they are sitting listening to this trial trying to decide whether the president should be kept in office. A lot to the story. Thank you very much. In response to parnas comments, the white house says this. He is desperate to reduce prison time and adding the president did nothing wrongs. The white house predicts the impeachment trial will be an easy and quick win for the president. But first after the senators are sworn in later today senate rules require the president must be summoned and given time to answer the charges against him. Weijia jiang is at the white house. How is the president expected to respond . Reporter good morning. Likely be a written response and give us a solid preview of the white houses Legal Defense against the charges in the articles of impeachment. On the obstruction of congress charge, the white house will largely argue the president did not obstruct justice because he was simply exercising his constitutionally protected demanding dent trump iing an immediate fial President Trump is now beling for the articles of impeachment to be dismissed, which is extremely unlikely. Two Senior Administration officials tell cbs news they do not believe extra witnesses should be called in the senate trial but cbs news has learned the white house believes there will likely be enough republican defectors to pass a vote to hear from more people. Now if that happens mr. Trumps lawyers are prepared with their own list of witnesses. The white house has called the entire process a partisan sham nnd pointed to Nancy Pelosis signing of the articles in which ute handed out souvenir pens while calling it a somber day for america. The white house is still finalizing the president s defense team and they are considering adding some of mr. Trumps republican allies in the house to the mix. Gayle . Thank you very much. Much. Ouse leaders were taking their final steps on impeachment, the president was signing a groundbreaking trade deal with china. The white house ceremony marked the first phase of a new d reement.

I think you called me a liar on national tv. What . I think you called me a liar menational tv. Lets not do it right now. Well have the discussion. You told me lets not do it now. I dont want to get involved, just wanted to say hi. Okay. Reporter warren there clearly photo happy with sanders who during the debate denied he ever said he didnt think a woman could become president. Both the warren and Sanders Campaign have declined to comment, so has the democratic wtional committee whether or not they have any issue with cnn releasing the video after a candid moment. His has this has caused a rift between the two opponents. Sanders and warren are going after the same liberal democrats here in iowa, and across the country. Theyve had plenty of opportunities to do it and declined until now. We should remind folks the debate covered a lot of ground. But we rarely see moments like this and while trash talking is inevitable and it happens all the time on the Basketball Court or football field this is a reminder it also happens on the campaign trail.
