Editorinchief of the hill, the impeachment inquiry ramped up with Trump Administration officials. Who is set to testify in the coming week . Bob we are going to have a number of people. Is one. Ll she used to be a diplomat for the Trump Administration. , shes going to testify knows what is going on in europe. Inovich testified today, the state department tried to block her, she was a Career State Department employee, she was subpoenaed, the House Democrats said the subpoena forced her to testify, but she was clearly eager to testify. Is anotherlence, he one whose texts were released recently, he is a trump donor and the state department did block his testimony, but it looks like he will testify next week. Host are we getting any timeline from Democratic Leaders on an Impeachment Vote . Bob no, and that is something our members are asking about. Certainly i think you will see something this year, but the question is not only timing, but, is it going to be about ukraine and obstruction of justice . Will it be larger, will it deal with Financial Issues . How broad will impeachment be . I think it will be before thanksgiving, but Speaker Pelosi has not given a timely a timeline. But covering her for a number of years, i dont think she wants to drag this into 2020, the election year. Remember democrats want 2018 not on impeachment, they won on issues, health care. But i think she wants to get this done sometime in 2019. During the twoweek break, the president announcing the withdrawal of troops from Northern Syria and in turkey invading Northern Syria, and strong reaction on capitol hill including proposals for sanctions, one by liz cheney. Why is this a big issue on capitol hill . Bob its a big issue. Its one of the rare issues that has split Republican Leaders from the president. Mitch mcconnell has been very critical of this move. You mentioned liz cheney, member of the house Republican Leadership. And the other top two above her, Steve Scalise from louisiana and Kevin Mccarthy are backing the sanctions bill. So it is going to divide republicans who are torn between supporting their president , and they just didnt like this move of leaving syria and abandoning the kurds. So you are potentially going to see votes next weekend beyond that would admonish the white house for making this move. And that is going to be a tough vote for some republicans, no doubt about it. Seems the president seems the withdrawal sees the withdrawal as a political winner for him. Bob thats right. He has made the case that the entry is very war weary. At his rally last night, he repeatedly mentioned we have to stop the endless wars. That triggered some applause. Its interesting because some republicans will support him here, and i think some democrats will also support him if they are post if they are forced to vote on it. But a vast majority of democrats and republicans dont support this move. And i think the white house has been a little surprised about how much republican pushback they have gotten, especially from leaders. That is just so unusual in this congress. Host back to potential floor action, last month Speaker Pelosi introduced her Prescription Drug plan. What is the stat of that . When we might see floor debate and vote on that . Bob this is a big issue for House Democrats. It is what they campaigned on when they won the house in 2018. As you mentioned Speaker Pelosi , unveiled her bill. Not surprisingly, the Prescription Drug industry is not pleased with this. And they have come out against it. You will see a lot of tv ads, recently going after the pelosi bill and supporting what the Trump Administration has done on administrative policy. Mitch mcconnell is not a fan of this nancy pelosi bill. Nancy pelosi had to strengthen the bill to get progressives on board, as far as how many drugs can be negotiated and to bring down drug prices at the same time. It is unclear when it will go to the floor. There is going to be a hearing in the ways and means committee, and a number of committees have jurisdiction in the house, energy and commerce as well. So i think you are going to have the hearings, which are going to be very partisan and then i , would think you will have markups, moving through committee, then going to the floor sometime in 2019. Host a quick yesno question. Bob kusac will the house and senate take up the u. S. Mexicocanada trade agreement before the end of the year . Bob it is on a knifes edge. The short answer if i had to pick would be yes. , but impeachment creates a problem because of the politics of it. But nancy pelosi wants to get to yes, and republicans want yes, so there is a little over a 50 chance this is going to Pass Congress this year. But dont bet a lot of money on that.
