Direct pitch for the president of ukraine to investigate joe biden and his son. Heres one of the quotes. Theres a lot of talk about bidens son, quote, that biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that. Whatever you can do with the attorney general that would be great. The attorney general hes referring to is attorney general barr. The president used the name of attorney general barr and Rudy Giuliani who he said would be looking into the matter. He said both men would reach out to the president of ukraine and ask him to get started on this. The president of ukraine said he was going to investigate the matter. They had a fairly extensive conversation about this. The president mentioned he wanted to enlist the attorney general. What has the attorney general said about the fact the president mentioned him in the phone call. A rather extraordinary set of events took place after the Inspector General got word of the whistleblower complaint. He referred it to the Justice Department involving possible campaign violations. The Justice Department did a review involving the National Security division and the criminal division. They concluded that there was no violation, potential violation of the Campaign Finance laws. They also say that attorney general barr was not involved in knowing about this request by the president of the United States, he never talked to the president about this particular request and also that he never spoke with Rudy Giuliani about this request either. Pierre, in the course of the phone conversation, the president not only mentions joe biden, he also talks about this crowd strike issue which was related to the hacking of the dnc emails in 2016 and asked the president to look into that as well. He did, george. He seemed interested in wanting to know what role the Ukrainian Government might have played in that. He men shunsed in a derogatory way bob mueller. He talked about how incompetent bob mueller was as well. They discussed investigating the the u. S. Service officer who has been the ambassador to ukraine. He did indeed. The president had negative things to say about this ambassador. The other thing thats interesting is weve got a little more detail about the whistleblower and how all this came about. The office of Legal Counsel point out that the whistleblower supposedly heard about this conversation, this phone call between the president and the president of the ukraine from white house officials. Pierre, before i let you go, we have the president saying as you mentioned in the phone call that he would like to have the attorney general call the president so he can get to the bottom of all this. The attorney general is saying he never spoke to the president about any of this . The attorney general is saying flat out he never spoke with the president about this. He never spoke to Rudy Giuliani about this. The first time the attorney general became aware of this is when the Inspector General and the dnis auoffice contacted th Justice Department. Pierre, thank you. I want to bring in jon karl. Pretty extraordinary bits of information in this phone call. The president clearly asked for joe biden and his son to be investigated. This will be seen as more democrating than anticipated. The president is explicitly looking for help here. The president says the United States has been very good to cr ukraine. Then he says i would like you to do us a favor. The first favor is the crowd strike. He brings up a server. Theres only one serve thats been in the news. He said the server they say, ukraine has it. I dont know where thats coming from. Hes asking for an investigation. He says your economy will be Getting Better at a time we know he had been withholding aid. I think this will be more explosive than anticipated. Its interesting that the white house decided to put this out. We were being told over and over this wont be so bad once people see it. This looks damning. Its a multi tiered effort. When giuliani said he was going to go to ukraine there was an uproar. Here we have the president saying hell be involved and william barr. The president bringing up the attorney general more than once. Ill have the attorney general and Rudy Giuliani contact you. Hes explicit here. Dan abrams. The critical thing is what has the president said to this point. He said it was a discussion about trying to root out corruption in the ukraine and ensuring the money was going to the right places. Theres almost nothing about that in this transcript. This transcript is almost you can say largely about the personal agenda of the president. When you read through it, the majority of the what the president is talking about is with regard to personal agenda items, the crowd strike, hunter biden, joe biden. He repeats again and again the ambassador. Who was on president obamas side according to the transcript. Right. Talk to my attorney general. The most important point is the biden piece. You can say that the Hillary Clinton piece is inappropriate, shouldnt have done it. When youre talking about trying to get information about your potential 2020 rival, youre now crossing into potential legal issues. Youre now talking about the possibility of influencing an election. Thats different than just looking back. Lets break that down a little bit. We should remind everybody this is the day after Robert Muellerer testifies on capitol hill. Theres a different between what is illegal and impeachable. You had the criminal referral from the intelligence Inspector General sent to the Justice Department, cleared by President Trumps Justice Department. Thats almost meaningly. The reason you have a special counselor independent counsel is because you dont want the president s appointee judging the president on something this important. Thats why when people said barr came to his on conclusion about the mueller report. The whole reason Robert Muellerer came in is so the attorney general doesnt make those decisions. Here you see the department of justice making a decision on important questions. And deciding to not turn over to congress the complaint. Theres a difference between what is illegal and whats impeachable. That gets into that question. The president brings up mueller just testified. He said as you saw that whole nonsense ended by the very poor performance by a man name Robert Mueller. Its extraordinary hes bringing up Robert Mueller with the president of ukraine. That was about whether or not there was conspiracy, collusion. This is worse than i think people expected, meaning, when we were on with Chris Christie earlier this morning, the s suggestion was it wasnt a big deal. Or it might have been vague. Maybe he asked him something about joe biden. This is unambiguous. Lets bring that to mary bruce on capitol hill. Any initial reaction on capitol hill . This is likely to add fuel to the impeachment fire. Democrats are getting out of their weekly meeting, all the House Democrats have been huddling with nancy pelosi. Theyre walking out to a sea of cameras and reporters asking for their reaction. Democrats are likely going to pounce on not only we see that the president asked a foreign leader to investigate his political rival, but george, theyre going to have a lot of questions about the attorney general and the fact you see the president offering up his attorney general to help investigate his 2020 rival here. Democrats here on the hill have long questioned the attorney general and the independence of this Justice Department. Democrats often refer to him as the president s personal attorney for the way he handled the mueller report. George, i would not be surprised if they have a lot of questions about the fact that the Justice Department is now in a position of trying to adjudicate a matter that the attorney general was directly involved with. Thats why theyre pursuing impeachment proceedings. I want to bring in terry moran. I want to put that letter up on the screen. He says the other thing theres a lot of talk about bidens son that biden stopped the prosecution. A lot of people want to find out about that. Whatever you can do with the attorney general could be great. Biden went around claiming he stopped the prosecution. Whatever you can do with the attorney general. Those sentences will be the Battle Ground for the coming impeachment. Its fair to say the democrats will move forward on the basis of this alone. Theres more to be found out as they develop the facts in committee hearings. The question will be before the country are those sentences, are the president s actions in the nagt interest or in his own personal political interest. Hell argue corruption is a huge problem in ukraine. Its part of the problem with giving money to ukraine. It ends up in the wrong hands. President obama was aware of that. He will argue that Vice President bidens son hunter who is involved in a company that was involved in corruption is of national interest. I understand thats going to be the defense. Does it pass the smell test when he mentions joe biden . Joe biden was involved with the dismissal of a prosecutors. That prosecutor dropped the initial investigation. That will be hashed out. Theres no question the impeachment will be is the president operating cynically, corruptly or is he pursuing the national interests. That will be the question. Terry raises an important point about the timeline. The prosecutor in ukraine was investigating this company in 2013 for actions that happened in 2013. Hunter biden joins the board in 2014. Theres no evidence that hunter biden was part of the initial investigation. Thats point number one. Point number two is the prosecutor was part of an International Effort biden was involved with because he wasnt going after Corruption Cases hard enough. Correct. If you read Media Coverage of back then of when the ukrainian prosecutor was pushed out, its talking about International Pressure that had been put on ukraine to get rid of him. It didnt smell right. You had the Vice President s son making tens of thousands of dollars a month. You had the Vice President. There was an appearance problem. Look at this. Why would that be of pressing concern right now what would happen in 2014 . Why would this be a pressing concern to be a central part of his call with the president of ukraine . Theres an important point here too. When the president asked him to do this investigation it comes right after president zelensky brings up the issue of military help from the United States. Then the very next sentence from the president is i would from President Trump i would like you to do us a favor though. Youre asking for something . Ive got a favor. Mary bruce were getting reaction from the house speaker. Our reporter john park inson caught up with the house speaker. She said she hasnt read the transcript yet. She stressed no one, not even the president , is above the law. He said in breach of constitution responsibilities has asked him to help him in his police call campaign. That cannot stand. He will be held accountable. Lets go back to pierre thomas. Pierre, take a step back. One of the things revealed in this letter is a multi tiered effort regarding Rudy Giuliani, the president says his attorney general william barr. I know the attorney general said he didnt know anything about this phone call, didnt know the president was invoking them. Have they made any judgment about whether it was proper for the president to be discussing this with the president of ukraine . They have not made any judgment about that. The Justice Department looked at whether it was a Campaign Finance violation. When you look at the transcript, what jumps out to me is the degree to which giuliani is playing a role. Hes not a member of the Trump Administration per se. Hes playing a role where the president is invoking his name. Get this. The president of the ukraine insists that a member of his staff has already been in contact with Rudy Giuliani and he was open to furthering this investigation with Rudy Giuliani. Jon karl, as we look at this now we still havent seen the whistleblower complaint. Hard to imagine you have 200 members of congress for impeachment. What happens next . You had the speaker of the house come out and make the argument not for an impeachment process, but for impeaching the president. Adam schiff said based on what we already know he should be impeached. I think even before this comes out the house was clearly moving in the direction toward impeaching the president. Its hard to see how this doesnt add fuel to that. Dan abrams, one of the questions will be how broadly do they define articles of impeachment. Right. In previous impeachment proceedings, nixon and clinton they went broad. There were numerous counts under each of the broad buckets. Here youve got to believe theyre likely to be more narrow. Theyre likely to want to convince the public theyre not overreachi overreaching. Theyre going to have to prove to the American People its overdue. Its going to involve constitutional principles, constitutional principles, National Security, the executive branch versus congress. Absolutely. The next step is fact and evidence. To do that they have to get the attorney general before congress. They have to get the secretary of state before congress. Rudy giuliani said mike pompeo asked him to go to ukraine. The democrats will want to bolster the evidence in this transcript with witness evidence and others. Among those people who would have been listening into this call as a matter of routine is john bolton the former National Security adviser. It a poppears well get impeachment hearings that didnt appear after the mueller investigation. The white house has released the transcript of the july 25th phone call between President Trump and president zelensky where he asked the ukrainian president to look first, though, the summerlike cities sponsored by sensodyne.

This morning, were hearing her story of tragedy and triumph. How she came back from it all. Great to have you here, diane. Its been riveting all week long hearing from her. Thank you. I think we all feel the same way. Its still surprising when you discover that someone you think you know from the movies and the red carpet turns out to have a very different life and weve learned this week how she had to teach herself to be brave through so much fear and the mistakes that she made along the way but today were going to head back to her house in the hills because she says at the age of 56 she may finally have discovered what strength really is. Today, a lot of life in the house up in the hills demi moore calls her tree house. All right. Just go in barefoot. Are you kidding . I have seven dogs. Reporter not just the dog, most rescues but wander in the kitchen and the big fridge is always stocked with juice and soda for friends and family dropping by. Shes been filming in london, a new tv series based on the legendary book brave new world, and says shes loving this new decade on screen. You know, i used to question why me and maybe im not the most talented or the most intelligent or the most beautiful, but it doesnt matter. I certainly have done enough in my life to know that were created. I sorry. Is this you . I just heard that beeping on you. Reporter were interrupted at one point by a torrent of loving messages from her three daughters with bruce willis, rumer, scout, tallulah. This is the lineage of females, the houses of moore and willis. That is what our thread is called. Nearly every day there they are celebrating each other on instagram. Now seven years away from that terrifying time. Is an ambulance on the way . Reporter it would be a turning point. Her marriage over. She says she had lost herself and lost her 20 years of sobriety. At a Birthday Party there were party drugs, synthetic pot, nitrous oxide. She used them. She had a seizure. Is she breathing normally . No, not so normal but more sort of shaking. Everyone else was witnessing my body flailing. My daughter terrified that she was going to see me die right in front of her and within me i was in a place that was thinking, wow, how did i get in here . Isnt this interesting . And then my very next thought was, oh, i wonder if i can get out and all of a sudden i was back in my body and i think it was a moment that i was somehow being given a choice. You think it was that close . I think certainly emotionally it was. I think something had to give. When you come up to those places, you either go in or you go out. Reporter its the title of her new book which she says has a purpose. Sharing of myself in a way that if it can elevate or open someone else to loving themselves a little bit better. Reporter and a promise she says of what can happen if you just reach out for help. She got treatment and began seeing her real strength in a different way. I did have someone say to me, a mentor i worked with that, did i think i was ready for someone my own size . Not my own age but my own size. So i thought that was kind of an interesting perspective. What does that mean . I think own size would mean someone whos experienced life, whos gone through things in a way that are parallel. Are you ready for someone your own size . Were getting there. Were getting there. Reporter and the healthier she became, the more her family moved close again. Her exhusband and friend bruce willis. And the children who were so worried about her strange behavior and her health, they stopped speaking to her, began to come back as she proved she was turning her life around. The oldest, rumer, reached out first the way she had once done on screen years ago. You looked really pretty. No, i didnt. Yeah, you did. You looked great. Thank you, baby. Whats your prayer for them and to them . Oh, my hope is that in understanding me, that they would better understand themselves and love themselves. Reporter and there was one more bridge, a healing resolution demi moore built to the past before it was too late, the one that led back to her unstable alcoholic mother who was finally diagnosed as bipolar. Her mother became ill with cancer. Demi went to help care for her and try to redeem the time they had left. I had to stop and recognize that i had pushed my mother away. I decided who she was and when you decide who someone is, you take away the opportunity for them to be anything else but if i cant have compassion in my heart for her, how can i expect my children to hold that for me . You were with her when she died. Yes. Reporter she writes, ive had extraordinary luck in this life both bad and good, but we all suffer and we all triumph and we all get to choose how we hold both. I dont feel a victim to my life. If i had it easier would i have had the courage, the strength to pursue the career i have . Would i have had the guts to go and step into something i had not a clue of . So survival, success, surrender, and celebration which does not begin with an s. Whoo. Im sorry, wow. And again, she says she is just writing it in case its someone elses story too. How she opened up to you. How she was just again, i think i think we wander in sometimes and as she said you decide who someone is. When she said that.

Our chief Justice Pierre thomas has more on that. Pierre . Reporter george, good morning. We just read the transcript involving the conversation between the president and the president of ukraine. One thing is clear President Trump absolutely did directly ask the leader of ukraine to investigate his political rival joe biden and his son. President trump invokes the name of Rudy Giuliani as a person who would be pursuing the matter, his personal attorney. He tells the ukrainian president attorney general barr would also be pursuing the biden issue. The president of ukraine indicates that hes willing to investigate. The other headline here is that the Inspector General from the Intelligence Community referred the case to the department of justice and the fbi for the president of the United States to be investigated for possible Campaign Finance violations. The Justice Department ultimately decided there was no Campaign Finance violation and closed the matter. The Justice Department em fa sizes that President Trump and barr never spoke on the ukrainian issue nor did barr speak to Rudy Giuliani and barr never contacted the ukrainian president on this matter. George. Thank you, pierre. Lets go the capitol hill now for the latest from mary bruce. Reporter george, this is only adding fuel to the impeachment fire. Telling us this transcript than than thought. The fact of the president of United States in breach of constitutional responsibility asked a foreign.

Dr. Ashton is here with how to know if you should get the shot. And we were so happy, so happy that shes on the mend. Many people think its just a cold. What are the symptoms, though . Robin, you took the words right out of my mouth. This is not a bad cold. Mini med school here. So pneumonia is a severe infection that can occur in the lungs and it can be caused by bacteria, viruses or fungus, and then the air sacs in the lungs fill up with fluid. That can be lifethreatening. It can spread to the bloodstream. 50,000 people a year approximately die due to pneumonia. Symptoms in adults are major and Everyone Needs to know this. Typically fever which is a high fever, a cough, chills, severe fatigue. You need to get a chest xray. You need to have someone listen to your lungs and you need to seek medical attention. We heard oprah talking about the vaccine. Who should get one . So this is a great opportunity for people to understand about this vaccine. It is approved and recommended by the cdc for all babies under the age of 2 and all adults over the age of 65. It goes by the names prevnar or pneumavax. People with certain high risk conditions, liver disease, hiv, they should absolutely get this vaccine. It can dramatically reduce the chances of someone getting this pneumococcal pneumonia. What are other ways . Listen, its very important. People need to understand if you smoke or vape, stop. That increases your risks of pneumonia. Obviously staying active. Getting a flu shot important. Youre going to hear more about that. Influenza can lead to pneumonia and basic hand hygiene, wash your hands. Cover your cough, very, very important. What juul is doing, the cofounder stepping down, the changes they are making that is really good. Its very important. We now unfortunately need to start looking at vaping no differently than smoking.

[ applause ] so none of the cast knows how the season ends and they joke theyre not to be trusted but the writers and purchases feel they owe it to the fans to send the characters off on the path they deserve to be. 13 people, the largest interview ive ever conducted but said which character because each of these characters were developed so beautifully and each are so unique. They said theyll miss phils character the most. The iconic dad. Yes. Theyve spent a lot of time with us over the years here in the studio. Ive gone on set with them too as you have. What a Wonderful Group of individuals and having an ensemble like that you can tell they truly enjoy each other and family in every aspect. The interview started late because they were all catching up but giving each other hugs. I cant wait to the final season. I mean i can wait but cant wait. The final season of modern family starts tonight, 9 00, 8 00 central on abc. Ginger. [ applause ] okay. So now we actually have something, an exclusive sneak peek of something we all love, Jimmy Kimmels live, one of my favorite segments, mean tweets. Lets take a look. Maisie williams looking lies very young grandma. It must suck to be a cute little kid only to grow up looking like a creep. Yes, fred savage, im talking about you. I bet zendayas feet smell like funyuns. Lets check, shall we . Nope, smells like success to me. So good. You can see all of that tonight reh, Finn Wittrock who is in judy playing her fifth husband mickey deans. We have a couple of gifts for you. Oh, no . Its your first morning show. I havent even done anything yet. All right. Now you have to be good because you got a tshirt. Thank you. Youre welcome. Umbrella. Lets get out of here now. [ laughter ] so tell me, we had renee on and how in character she was. What was it like working with her. It was a dream. I think shes an amazing lesson in how to be a kind and generous and awesome person while giving a great performance, you know. I rarely saw her not as judy in the time i was there. Right. So she didnt break character. We didnt like she didnt make us call her judy or she wouldnt respond but like i actually have realized lately hanging out with her for all the press that how different she really was. Like because she was so in it and i was so much always seeing her in the judy getup and as the character that i didnt realize till now, oh, right, shes a very different person and came out in the rap party with the blond hair, like, right, thats your hair. Totally forgot. Lets get a little look. A little taste of it. This has been a good time, huh . Well, were not done yet, are we . I hope not. You ever want to get together, just click your heels. Thats how it works, right . [ applause ] and in this, obviously it is the 1960s and so you are so 1960s. I was reading your wife was a fan of that look. Oh, well, she was kind of like, honey, want to bring that wig home. I mean, it looks good. Mickey deans was was a flamboyant dresser and enjoyed all of the colors of the 60s, that was kind of a fun thing to jump in and in the movie mickey gives judy kind of a sense of like youthful exuberance so that was kind of what we were going for. I think its working. I think its working. Okay, so also i was reading that even during production, some of the actors forgot that it was an actual movie and got so into it. Yeah, well, we had in these amazing performance thing scene she does we had about 40 or 50 extras who were sort of just paid to be there and sit and like act like theyre at a dinner theater concert and inevitably after she sang they would get up and applaud. Wow. Without being prompted and till the sound guy was like stop these people from applauding because its messing up my work. But it really was, yeah, it was amazing. Finn, we cant wait to see it. Finn in judy hits theaters this friday. Coming up too weve got the science of puppy love. Its real apparently. Dont forget. Do so that early retirement we planned. Its going ok . Great.
