this is nonsense that has left the president with an indelible mark next to him. >> yes, and one of the things that's really dangerous about these impeachment proceedings is the president has continued to amplify this particular conspiracy theory which his senior national security advisers have been trying to debunk since very early on in his administration. and we heard a very stark warning from fiona hill, one of the witnesses saying, this is russian propaganda. but as we have seen over the course of these impeachment proceedings is that senate republicans and other republicans have begun trying to make the case that ukraine was interfering in the 2016 election, so it's not the president on the wild conspiracy theory but shaking the bipartisan consensus of strong support for ukraine to push them away from that in russia's interest to further this conspiracy theory gl that . >> that is a good point that mieke makes. >> trying to say something that

pattern that made it so damaging. there were many damaging moments, but that was certainly one of them. >> in terms of damage, how damaging was it to the president? i mean, did you find sondland's testimony credible? >> i did. and he gave very important testimony that gave us context to that call record that the president himself released. we've known since the president released that call record the basic outlines of the story, that he brought pressure to bear against a foreign government for, as jill says, this personal political benefit. that is the essence of corruption, using your official office for your own personal gain. what sondland did was say, look, the president directed us to do this. the directions came from rudy. he's giving us this context that explains, behind that call record, there were all these other side conversations to amp up the pressure on the ukrainians to make very clear to them that this was, in fact, the quid pro quo. >> and mieke, speaking of call records, you have david holmes, counselor to the embassy in

ukraine, described what he overheard in that kiev cafe in ukraine, now an infamous phone call between the president and ambassador sondland. here's that moment. >> so, you heard president trump ask ambassador sondland, is he going to do the investigation? >> yes, sir. >> what was ambassador sondland's response? >> he said, oh, yeah, he's going to do it, he'll do anything you ask. >> even though i did not take notes of these statements, i have a clear recollection that these statements were made. i believe that my colleagues who were sitting at the table also knew that ambassador sondland was speaking with the president. >> but he doesn't have notes. so, mieke, why is holmes' testimony so critical? >> david holmes was able to put the words directly in the mouth of the president. he is a firsthand witness to what the president was saying in terms of directing sondland to get this investigation. sondland is confirming to the

voted down in that respect. and it all comes back to that whistle-blower complaint, though, and the extent to which it's being corroborated behind closed doors. and that's my first thought hearing this "washington post" story tonight. >> so mieke, by distant of your experience on the house of representatives, you know that in normal times if it's a foot race between molasses and the house calendar molasses wins walking away. however, all of this has been fast tracked. having said that, do you have any idea, just a viewer's guide, as to timing? start with when we'll see the first public hearings perhaps. >> so it's not clear when we'll see the first public hearings. but now that they have this resolution that will come forward which will allow chirm schiff to set public hearings, we now have a process going forward that will be more transparent so the american people can see what these witnesses have said behind closed doors. chairman schiff had said earlier that he would make statements and witness evidence public once

gun package, gun legislation package from this white house. that is what president trump promised both democratic and republican senators. that legislation, that package never materialized. so i asked the house speaker since we hadn't heard anything in the press, had she heard anything and her answer was no. >> mieke, can you bring us behind the scenes a bit in the intel committee. i'm curious, do they feel like they have lightning in a bottle right now and that they have to move quickly on this? >> i think that they feel an urgency on the issue. right? this is a very different kind of allegation than the committee's used to getting. in all my time on the committee, we never received a single complaint that would have implicated the behavior of the president of the united states especially in the conduct of foreign affairs with a country that is so literally under the gun from the russians. so, i think that they see this issue as a very different kind of issue than the issues we have seen with the president before. so i think that they recognize that this is something they have to pursue and schiff knows how

to do that. i think what you're seeing here is that the president is taking leverage in the foreign policy space and using it to his own political ends. and if the president is permitted to do this, if he's permitted to put the lives of the ukrainians on the line, permitted to allow russia to go unchecked in its efforts to come into ukraine and all in the service of his political ambitions, then we've lost the sense of who we are as a nation and we really are about one man and that's the whole founding of this country was to say we are not about one man. we were not about the king. we are about all of us. we are democracy. i think that this is -- goes to the very heart of who we are as a nation. >> michael, can you jump in on that, the national security issue? some out there might question why is this phone call with ukraine something that affects national security. they might roll their eyes on that. in fact, i know one person who emails me quite often who says -- who laughs at the idea that this is a national security issue. >> yeah, absolutely. i think mieke is exactly right.

executive branch accountable from coming forward. i think that -- i know they have this process, but the process should not get in the way of being able to do the oversight and accountability work that congress needs to do. >> mieke, thank you, michael, thank you. >> thank you. >> the whistle-blower complaint raising serious questions about how this white house is handling national security. we'll talk to someone who understands that issue quite well. my conversation with tom ridge, the first homeland security secretary coming up next. secretary coming up next it's racquetball time. (thumps) ugh! carl, does your firm offer a satisfaction guarantee? like schwab does. guarantee? (splash) carl, can you remind me what you've invested my money in? it's complicated. are you asking enough questions about the way your wealth is being managed? if not, talk to schwab. a modern approach to wealth management.

things with the committee and he can also talk about whether or not he agrees with the inspector general. i would expect the members of the congress to really push him on those things and how he understands what the risk is of foreign interference here. >> and mieke, how much cooperation at this stage is there with the republican staff? i know in the pre-trump era, there would have been a lot of cooperation between the parties on situations like this. >> yeah, i think under chairman schiff, what i've heard from former colleagues, is that things have gotten better. when you see the senate voting 100 to nothing to release this report and have the whistleblower complaint come forward, and you start to see republicans express unease about the allegations here, i think you're going to have more bipartisan concern about protecting whistleblowers than you might have previously. >> miek spairks eoyang, thank you for your guidance on what to watch tomorrow.

i also found them very credible. i think it a travesty that this complaint was held as long as it was because it was an urgent matter. it is an urgent matter and there was simply no basis to keep this from the committee. >> for the last word of the hour, we turn to mieke eoyang, a former staff member of the house intelligence committee. she is a vice president of the national security program at the third way. and mieke, if you were at your old desk at the committee, you would be there right now close to 11:00 p.m., close to midnight. you worked with adam schiff and the rest of the committee who will be questioning tomorrow. what is the staff doing right now to prepare tomorrow for 9:00 a.m.? >> right now they're going over those who have seen the whistle-blower complaint and they're putting together lines of questions for members of congress. i think there are three main areas where you would want to
