California. >> i enjoyed listening to you. you're absolutely correct in your reporting of what occurred during both the nixon and clintone impeachment. but i wanted to address the issue from a slightly different point of view. not only has president trump refused to provide information that he should'veto provided. he didn't assert a privilege. he just said no. i actually have just re-read the letter from mr. cipollone, the president's lawyer, dated october 8th, 2019. it's page after page after page of complaining about how the house is proceeding. but the p constitution says congress shall ha...
