CNNW Early Start With Christine Romans And Dave Briggs December 16, 2019

Im not trying to be a juror here. I want to end it. I dont want to legitimize it. I hate what im doing. Everything i do im coordinator with the white house counsel. When they sit for a trial, they have to pledge to do impartial justice. And you have the majority leader of the senate, the foreman of the jury, saying hes going to work hand in glove with the defense attorney. Thats a violation of the oath theyre about to take and a complete subversion of the constitutional scheme. The house released its impeachment report, declaring President Trump has realized the framers worst nightmare. The report argues the president committed crimes including bribery. That was not referenced in the impeachment articles. Part of the defense of the president was that no actual crimes were committed. New polls over the weekend, show little to no movement in Public Opinion following the house proceedings. Jeremy diamond is at the white house. Reporter good morning, dave and christine. This is the week that the house of representatives will vote to impeach president donald trump. That will be certain this week, as the house takes up the articles of impeachment that passed the House Judiciary Committee last week, on abuse of power and obstruction of okay. But here, it has shifted to the senate, where the president will face a trial if he is impeached by the house. Senate republicans and the white house have been coalescing around this notion of a short impeachment trial and would have no witnesses coming forward. As that conversation is happening, were hearing from the top democrat in the senate, the Senate Minority leader, Chuck Schumer, and he is making his own pitch for how a senate trial would go forward. He would like to see witnesses come forward. He would like to see documents be subpoenaed. The four witnesses he says Senate Democrats want to see come forward in what he is describing as a fair trial, would be the white house chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, his senior adviser, robert blare, john bolton and michael duffey, a associate director for security programs at the National Security council. Duffey is one of the officials who signed off on several of the documents on that aid freeze of 400 million in security aid to ukraine. This is the opening offer were hearing from Chuck Schumer. Schumer and Mitch Mcconnell are expected to sit down to discuss these requests from Senate Democrats and discuss how to move forward with a trial. But again, unless schumer can somehow get four Senate Republicans to join him in backing these rules for impeachment trial, Mitch Mcconnell will be the one who decides how this impeachment trial goes forward. Mcconnell has made clear that any decisions hes coordinating with the white house. The white house counsel, Pat Cipollone in particular. Theres no indication that the white house would allow any of the witnesses to actually come forward. Dave . Christine . Jeremy diamond, thank you. A freshman democratic lawmaker announcing plans to switch parties and becoming republican. Now, six members of Jeff Van Drews staff have quit. In a letter, the staffers say they can no longer in good conscious continue their service. He opposed the impeachment of President Trump. Internal polling shows he is losing support among democrats in his district. Switching parties would allow him to avoid a democratic primary challenge. The Democratic Campaign committee is planning to hire van drews former staffers. President trump is suggesting jail time for the former fbi director, james comey. Comey said there was sloppiness in the obtaining of fisa warrants, the Justice Department internal watchdog determined the fbi was justified opening the investigation and found there was no bias. But the inspectorgeneral found serious errors in the way the probe was conducted. Significant errors in the fisa process. And you say that it was handled in a thoughtful and appropriate way. Yeah. Hes right, i was wrong. I was overconfident in the procedures that the fbi and justice had built over 20 years. I thought they were robust enough. Its incredibly hard to get a fisa. I was overconfident in those. Didnt take long for the president to pounce. Mr. Trump tweeting what are the consequences for unlawful conduct . Could it be years in jail .
