Nobody have done as much of i have done in the first three years. Rob history will occur in a few hours when lawmakers hold the final vote on articles of impeachment. Jillian democrats sated their constitutional duty but donald trump says it is a declaration of war on our democracy. Joining us to a clean how he will be voting todays texas congressman brian babin. Thank you for joining us. Glad to be with you. Jillian what does it look like today . It is going to be a big day. We hear this is a day of reckoning but i tell you the day of reckoning is going to be november 2020 this coming year. And i think the American People have had all taken state of this. Just heard the president say we know the president is innocent. He has not been treated fairly. We cannot have each president ial election in validated until the Majority Party of the house of representatives approves of him and this is exactly what is happening, very dangerous precedent. The president does not serve at the pleasure of the house of representatives. It is the other way around. Not the other way around. He serves at the pleasure of the American People, the American Voter and we are going to see a bipartisan vote today, a vote against impeachment although we will probably lose and we will have that day of reckoning in november of next year. Rob look like a couple defections from moderate democrats everybody was following. Are you surprised there is not more of those 31 or so . Those 31 are going to be in grave jeopardy because they are in districts that voted for donald trump last time. The leadership of the Democratic Party has been adamant. The democrats have been against donald trump since before he was inaugurated. The was a blowers attorney set in january 2017 the coup is on. 44 of the democrats voted for impeachment even before this conversation between the two president s, their mind is made up. They dont like donald trump. They know he is standing in the way of their socialist agenda, open borders etc. And their green ideal country, nanny state i should say. I think this is what happened. A lot of pressure on these democrats. Jillian lets look at a portion of this letter donald trump sent to nancy pelosi, i write to express my strongest and most powerful protest against the partisan impeachment crusade being pursued by the democrats. You are violating euros of office, youre breaking your allegiance to the constitution and you are declaring open war on american democracy. What do you make of those words of the letter itself have a reaction to it. I read it several times, one of the best letters i think i have read regarding this whole episode. The president put a lot of thought into this and i cant agree with him more. This president has done a tremendous job. America loving patriot, he has done so much. We worked with him when we were in the majority and how to pass tax cuts and jobs, we have a tremendous economy going on. If you want a job out there you can get it. The American People are prospering, a lot more money in their pockets and the president had a target painted on his back from before he was inaugurated. I have seen no evidence at all, none, that he is guilty of any of this. It is a totally unfair process and americans dont like to see someone being railroaded and tend to favor an underdog and this president has done a tremendous job and they are very sympathetic. Is numbers of gone up. Rob total support is dropping as well. As of today wasnt busy enough you had this really interesting rebuke from the fisa court to the fbi how they handled this process and Michael Horwitz in front of the senate committee. How do you think that is going to go . There will be hard questions that need to be answered because mister horowitz said the investigation, he approved of the way the investigation started even though there is so much evidence, we are seeing some fire out there that there was some bias involved here and a lot of it. What they are accusing the president of they are guilty of and we know that the fake russian dossier was paid for by democrats, by mrs. Clintons campaign and the dnc and they use this as a weapon, weapon eyes this, weapon eyes the fisa court to go after the campaign and the president s Campaign Workers and the American People are going to see that it is a violation of the law, violation of everything the fisa court was supposed to have been built on. Jillian thank you for waking up early and having this conversation. Got get back to work for the American People and start passing some bills that will help america. Rob we appreciate it. Jillian 19 after the hour, fighting fake news under intense scrutiny, facebook finally launching a new Fact Checking program. Rob Tracy Carrasco with how it works coming up. Itll ruin your house.

A source telling fox news ambassador bill taylor on january 1st believed key of the next day, taylor testified in front of the House Intelligence Committee in a Democrat Impeachment probe replacing marie yavanovitch. It is not clear who will replace bill gates. Jillian fighting fake news, facebook will test a new community Fact Checking system. Rob the company has come under fire for how it handles false content. Jillian how will the program work . Reporter a new Pilot Program will allow parttime contracted workers to be called Community Reviewers and hopefully the effort is to speed up the process of getting this information off of facebook which they have been criticized for not getting misinformation off of the platform fast enough. How it will work, thirdparty contractors will corroborate, and potential misinformation. Thirdparty Fact Checkers would not have any bias. They hope there is no bias when they hire out thirdparty Fact Checkers. This is a Pilot Program and they will see if it works, they will tweak the program or expand it at a time when a lot of social media platforms are under scrutiny as we head into the 2020 president ial election. Rob it sounds like one of the Cheapest Airlines out there to spend a little money. Spirit airlines known for nofrills, cheap fares, and they did unveil their new way, and bigger trade tables, they have been criticized but the new seats will have more cushion and more legroom and two inches and the trade tables will not be miniature trade tables. You will get a fullsized tray table. It is black and yellow like the companies colors. Jillian i dont think they do that. They have a mini recline. You can imagine a lot of complaints. Rob all right, cant stand united. Homeless solution this at a standstill after promising shelter, and thinking twice about turning or stables. And blames the problem on open arms policies. And it is not my text. Whether russia was working with the United States to interfere in our election. We were obligated. Jillian defending the russia investigation into donald from, the former fbi lawyer saying about Text Messages to peter stzrok. We will be right back.
