A record heat wave and drought. But theres very little. Change in the long. Time goodbye to the latest Star Wars Trilogy as the final movie in the series has its World Premiere. Im told me a lot it both thanks for joining us. We begin in the u. S. Where the house of representatives is debating whether to approve articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump republicans attempted to halt the session as soon as it began by calling for a vote to adjourn but that was dismissed along with other attempts to condemn the democrats the debate is still going on with a vote expected soon life impeachment is approved President Trump will go on trial in the senate. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi opened the impeachment debate by saying if we did not act now we would be derelict in our duty. Of the constitution. It is tragic that the president s reckless actions make impeachment necessary he gave us no choice what we are discussing today is the established fact that the president violated the constitution is a matter of fact that the president is an ongoing threat to our National Security and the integrity of our elections the basis of our democracy. With me in the studio is us political expert will no glucose william take us through whats going on today its been a long day of debates and rules and parliamentary procedure stuff that kind of goes way over our heads but basically were looking at hours and hours and hours of the baiting these 2 articles of impeachment abuse of power and obstruction of Congress Democrats saying this rises to the level of an Impeachable Offense that donald trump abused his power and abused his office by trying to get political favors by pressuring ukraine to get him dirt joe biden in the 2020 election republican saying this is a sham theres no evidence. But theres been of course scores of witnesses both 1st hand account and 2nd hand account saying that what donald trump did in pressure in trying to pressure president selenski in ukraine did amount to pressure was inappropriate and was shocking enough that many of them came forward and reported it their bosses their superiors so were seeing really a battle of realities here and a battle over facts or lack thereof and thats where were at at the moment waiting for this vote to finally happen after so whats probably going to be 6 hours or more of debate ok so if the impeachment does go ahead what then happened what next well thats when things actually get even more interesting so its looking very likely of the democrats in a fully partisan vote fully Party Line Vote will approve both articles of impeachment later this day maybe just losing one or 2 of their own democrats with no republicans voting in favor of thats how its looking then theyre going to appoint what they call impeachment managers these are basically prosecutors from the house representatives in the house who will go to the senate in a future trial to act as prosecutors. Presenting their case their evidence why donald trump should be removed from office but before that happens the house of representatives have to set. In these articles of impeachment they have to quote transmit them to the senate basically bring them over to the senate say here they are start the trial the latest out of washington is that democrats might try to delay this transmission this setting over to the senate as a as a tactic to try to get the senate which is controlled by republicans to give them more favorable more favorable trial rules basically because the democrats or republicans are negotiating on what this trial is actually going to look like and whereas in the house the democrats hold all the cards being in the majority in the senate is of course the exact opposite the republicans call the shots so well see just how long it takes for the articles of impeachment once theyre voted on to actually be sent to the senate and the trial cant happen until then and how would a decision to impeach affect america as a whole not great. The president is seen by americans as as as a representative of them of what the country wants to be and what the country aspires to be you know specially remember in the george w. Bush years people liked him because they thought they could have a beer with him they didnt care so much about what his policies wore what his politics were what he knew about the world that he didnt know about the world they wanted someone that they saw they saw in themselves they want a president they that they can see themselves in and so this is this is a black mark on america impeachment is basically break glass in emergency and for it to come to this for basically to say. The American People voted for a president that maybe cant be trusted maybe has violated the constitution is not a great statement about where things stand in american Politics Today ok and briefly looking at next years election how does all of this affect that. That is a long way off this could be a defining issue in the election next year in november 2020 and in the Campaign Leading up to that but politics has a very short memory if this trial lasts only a day or a week or 2 weeks in january which is even before the democratic primaries are held this could be long forgotten about by the time we come around to vote in november so were really going to see how long this trial last and what kind of mark it leaves on voters minds and how that changes their opinion about their elected representatives in congress and the senate and then the president ial candidates in 2020 k. Will include cost thank you for now lets take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world but livias attorney general has issued an arrest warrant for former president evo morales hes wanted on trial for charges on charges of sedition and terrorism or ellis fled bolivia last month amid unrest after he claimed victory in a disputed president ial election hes currently living in exile in argentina.
