Rudy giuliani, the white house, an individual who has already been indicted, lev parnas, in one of the key places. Theyre on stage with World Leaders who are convene now or very shortly for this group photo called the family photo. Well bring that you do. When it happens, it could be a bit awkward after a new video surfaced overnight showing the french president Emmanuel Macron, canadian Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau and british Prime MinisterBoris Johnson laughing at President Trumps ways, although, they did not mention him by name. So heres that moment. Well, it will be a busy and historic day ahead. Lets begin with suzanne malveaux. Shes live for us on capitol hill. What are we expecting, suzanne . Good morning, alisyn. Were just hours away from the house judiciarys first public hearing. It starts at 10 00. Alisyn, if history is any indication, we expect potential fireworks from this committee as democrats make their case for impeaching the president. After ten weeks of investigating President Trump, house intelligence democrats have now turned over the impeachment inquiry to the House Judiciary Committee, which is holding its first hearing today, to begin the process of drafting the articles of impeachment. Well, our hearing focus is really on the legal standard, that is, what do the terms bribery and high creams and misdemeanor mean. Reporter jerry nadler has a starting point with the intelligence committees 300page report, outlining their case for impeaching President Trump, writing, the president placed his own personal and political interests above the National Interests of the United States, sought to undermine the integrity of the u. S. President ial election process, and endangering u. S. National security. We thought the evidence is so overwhelming with regard to the wrongdoing at issue, we had to forward this particular report. The report providing new phone records, which democrats say show the president s allies efforts to push out false narratives. Among them, calls between Rudy Giuliani, his associate lev parnas t white house budget office, and the Top Republican on the house intelligence committee, devin nunes. If there were members of congress that were also part of that domestic political errand for the president and using tax resources to accomplish it, thats a problem. Nunes stopping short of denying he spoke with parnas. Ill go back and check on my records, but it seems very unlikely i would be taking calls from random people. The report also alleging top members of the trump administration, including Vice President mike pence, secretary of state mike pompeo, former Energy Secretary rick perry, and acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney were active participants in the trump campaign, the white house dismissing the impeachment reports finding and, again, attacking the process, and trumps allies agree. Theyre having one big problem, a tnds big problem is the president did nothing wrong, and they cant prove it. Meanwhile house judiciary democrats calling on the republican colleagues to take this mornings session seriously. Its time to take a hard beat and ask yourself do you want to go down that way or do you want to be a part of the team, republican and democratic, that sought to restore the integrity of our democracy. So they have three constitutional scholars who will make the case for impeaching the president. The republicans have one scholar who will make the opposite case. All eyes will be on the eyes of judiciary chairman jerry nadler, he was sidelined by nancy pelosi. Were going to look at potential theatrics from president supporters who are going to try to derail the process. Thank you very much for that preview. Were getting a first look at the socalled pham photo of the World Leaders. This isnt them. He made them dress up as drum majors. No. As soon as the camera widens out, there it is. You know im a fan of body language, but i get from this nothing. Ill tell you, the president has not looked happy on that stage. He barely cracked a smile as he was greeting the other leaders. I dont know. I dont see broad smiles from many of the leaders there. I think theyre just doing this Pro Forma Group photo. Theres President Trump as you can see. Is that a smile. Well, none of the leaders are smiling at the moment. But obviously we will get into everything thats happening overseas and everything that is happening here in the u. S. Because the House Judiciary Committee takes over the impeachment inquiry this morning as things aren to get even more interesting. We have a preview next.

Were hours away from the House Judiciary Committee meeting, first time theyre going to have a public impeachment panel. Theyre going to have professors in to talk about impeachment and what the framers meant when they wrote about it. John, first off, what people will notice today is this committee is very different than the house intelligence committee. There are what, 41 members on the judiciary. Its big as opposed to members of the intel, and its got some of the hall of fame members of congress, shall we say. Its got purse snoolt its got personality. It has people who want to wreck things in it. Yes. We could see some drama today. Thats right. Look. Jerry nadler is democratic chair of the Judiciary Committee its going be a real challenge and some folks have had question wls he can keep this train on the rails, so to speak, because theres going to be a lot of incoming wlrks its doug collins whos going to try to jam up the works to some of those hall of fame distractions you just referenced. Louis gohmert, matt gaines are in that category. Theyre going to throw a lot in the fire to try to destroy the creditlet of the process. The interesting thing is youll have the law professors and theyre going to bring some perspective on this. Jonathan turley is the one that republicans are expecting the most backup from. Noah feldman, michael gerhardt. It was not they imagined. Nixon, closer. This is very close to what the founders anticipated impeachment being used for because it involves a foreign power and domestic politics and this was a major focus and fear of the founders from washington to hamilton on down. I like the split screen. Theyll be talking about what the founders wanted and then the mud slippinging of our currentday congress with, in particular, these colorful characters as john just laid out, but arent they set up for time constraints and rules . Can this run off the rails . Sure. There will be restrapgts on the questions. I think the big question is he up to managing that. Look. Jerry nadler has a poor record. I think when he was handed the ball last time he fumbled it. Remind us. How did he fumble it . It was seven months ago he enabled it. In those seven months, what did he do . He subpoenaed one witness, don mcgahn. Instead he got slowplayed. Here we are seven months out. Theres been one firsthand fact witness in the whole followup. It was corey lewandowski, and that was a circus. Jerry nadler has a lot of malkt hes got to take care of today. Well see if hes up to the task. Its 45 minute mas for each counselor. Then each member gets five minutes. Thats where i suspect youll see not so many questions as performance art, i think, from some of the members there. Right. Louie gohmerts art is interpretive dance. You say you dont think they would try to impeach these witnesses, no pun intended. The white house has. Theres the one by democrats talking about giving it to Democratic Candidates basically calling them liberals. Yeah. Thats both predictable and unfortunate. Well see if they stick to the history t press confident, the case law, or whether they act as partisans. I dont imagine theyll do that. Feldman has written columns for years in many well respected books. If you have a paper trail, youve got to have an opinion to put your finger on. Its not ideal. Kit be said youre partisan. At the end of the day, this will be about can they elevate the day. Can they talk about how it might relate to the situation were facing as a country and can that be twist and demonized . It can be. Or will it rise above simply because of the historic way. Elie, of course, were living in a time when anyone who has given an opinion or voted is accused of not being able to do their jobs appropriately as we know. However, couldnt the democrats have chosen people who werent so, i dont know, overtly democratic . Right. Presumably they had their pick of almost any constitutional law professor in the country. I think anyone would have wanted to do this if these people are jikt to attack for being partisan. I think the bottom line goal for today for the democrats and for the witnesses is to take some of the mystery out of impeachment. Number one, impeachment is not a coup. Its if there by design. The founders put it there to address the abuses of power that john talked about before. I know impeachment is a scary thing. Its a grave power, only used once in a generation. But theres nothing to be afraid of and its not an overthrow of our government. Literally its not a coup. Benjamin franklyn ain wanted it there could be way worse. There are new phone records that shows Rudy Giuliani made a number of calls to a mystery number throughout the campaign to pressure ukraine. What do we know about that number . Who does it belong to . And what about the other calls . I havent seen a phone tree like this since byebye birdie. Well get hugo on the line. They never stray from their predetermined path. But this season, a more thrilling journey is calling. Defy the laws of human nature. At the season of audi sales event. Hes finally here hey how are you . Im good. How are you .

You came back new insight this morning into Rudy Giulianis deep involvement in trying to get ukraine to do President Trumps bidding. Phone records cited the house intelligence impeachment report showing Rudy Giuliani repeat lid calling the white house and calling a mysterious number designated as dash one. Its not clear who it belongs to, but House Democrats are trying to figure it out. We cant confirm yet who that dash one number belongs to, but certainly there were indications in the trial of the roger stone that when he was communicating to the president it would show up in phone records as a dash one number. How do you get a dash one number . Youve got to run for president. Its one of the perks. If called by my country. Back with elie honig and john avlon. Here are the phone records. Lets just pull them up. There are so many that have been subpoena and have now appeared in the house intelligence report. Rudy giuliani was just working the phones. He was just working the phones. He was talking to lev parnas, the omb. This was all leading up to the aid being frozen. The first one was literally on the day the ambassador was pulled back from the ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, and there are calls to the omb, lev parnas, and the mysterious dash one. This is the reason phone records are so important. The second thing you need as a prosecutor and investigator, when you get Something Like this, nice highlighted phone records, someone might be able to explain what was said during these calls, and who that might be could be lev parnas. All of the indications are hes trying to koo ing ting to coope congress. You go through the phone calls one at a time and say, what did you discuss here. Theres a lot they still need to work on. And lev parnass lawyer has been very aggressive at making allegations. These are the outlines of a fact pattern thats pretty clear. Rudy giuliani apparently called omb eight times the day Marie Yovanovitch was recalled. Have you ever called anyone eight times in a day . Its not to say hi. Theres usually an agenda. Theres this apparent devin nunes phone record with lev parnas which was potentially a big deal because it was not disclosed during the house intelligence committee. At first he said he didnt know lev parnas. Do we have that sound bite . We dont. He said, well, maybe i spoke to him. Im not sure i remember. I know the name lev parnas came up because hes been indicted. Well, lets play that. Its possible, but i havent gone through all my phone records. I dont really recall that name, you know. I remember the name now because hes been indicted. Ill go back and check on my records, but it seems very unlikely that i would be taking calls from random people sun likely except for the eight minutes that you were apparent listen on the phone with lev parnas. Ly say when this information came out in the report yesterday, it struck me. Surprised me, frankly, at two different levels. Number one, that apparently they had it during the whole hearing, interesting, also interesting, the stagecraft of this, knowing they would get a bang out of this if they kept it till they put it in the report. Thats interesting. And the contact with devin nunes and lev parnas. Devin nunes is the Ranking Member of intelligence who was involved in running the republican response during these hearings, and in these phone records it raises questions whether he was involved with the thing thats being investigating. The hypocrisy of devin nunes sitting there in the last few weeks about the righteous dander about everything thats happening. Turns out hes a potential fact witness. Hes on the phone with players at key moments and the fact he never said anything . Im not sure why adam schiff and his Committee Never said anything. Maybe it was to save face or hit harder when it did come out. Points for righteous dander, phrases not used enough. But i dont think his problem is hypocrisy. I think its a failure to disclosure of involvement. John solomon, the former reporter for the hill we know was being created to be used for evidence on why the investigation may be so necessary. There may be something dirty there. The hill says theyre going to take a look at the articles. But its much more serious for the house intelligence committee. Unlike hi he said he spent time with a random person. Well, i would suggest lev parnas was not a random person. One of the president s campaign lines used to be the world is laughing at the United States. Now it seems that hes right. The world might be laughing at him. The new viral video thats certain to ruffle some feathers with the president next. At kay we know that every gift is important.

Breaking overnight, a video that might drive the president crazy. World leaders appear to be laughing at him. It appears to show canadian Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau, british Prime Minister boris johns johnson, and Emmanuel Macron appear to be laughing. Watch this. Justin trudeau saying he watched the president s staffs jaws drop over the impromptu press conference. Kaitlan collins, this video made quite a stir. Any reaction from the white house this morning . Reporter no. We asked the white house what the president s response is and if hes seen this video, and they havent gotten back to us yet. We know already the president is back in the same room with those World Leaders who appear to be talking about him in this video. This morning they have several sessions going on in london and you saw when they were taking the group photoJustin Trudeau whos the most vocal is on the left side of the stage while the president is closer to the central right there. So it doesnt appear theyve had any interaction yet. But we reached out for comment from the french, the canadians, did they have any comments on this. So far its been total silence. Of course, the question is how is the president going to react to this because hes been someone on the campaign while in office time and time again has said thank gosh hes in office because that means the world is no longer laughing at the United States as he claims they were when barack obama was in office. Even remember the speech he gave at the United NationsGeneral Assembly last year where he made the audience laugh where he didnt intend to and later when asked about them laughing at him, he said, no, theyre laughing with me. The question, of course, will be how he responds. Princess anne appears to be in the video as well. Shes a member of the royal family. The president is impressed by the royal family. Always wants to make a good impression on them while hes in london. The question is what does he have to say this video. For what its worth, nic, i dont see them laughing at him in the video. I see them trying to process why hes 40 minutes late for a gathering with the u. S. Secretarygeneral and theyre talking about they were looking at his staffs faces, at their jaws dropping. We on the side of the pond are more used to the president s unorthodox ways at this point. What i see them doing is just trying to figure out what theyre seeing. But, nic, give us your impressions. Reporter yeah. I do feel its a sense of that as well. You know, its not often that these World Leaders can actually get together and sort of compare notes if you will. Here they are, apart from the dutch Prime Minister standing there, they just had an experience with President Trump and theyre getting to discuss it in real time. We dont hear what president macron has to say, but i think from my understanding here, trudeau is not particularly going to be dyspoliispleased at weve seen here. I think obviously were not going to get his press to comment on it directly, but its not something that theyre going to feel is going to reflect badly on them. This is the reality of the situation. These are leaders who look to their own national interest, have their own constituents to worry about about back home, and here they are comparing notes. And guess what . Theyre laughing about it because its not something in their normal daytoday meeting and professional lives. This is different. Theyre talking about it. I have to say, the corollary and the idea that theyre laughing alt him, not mutually exclusive. Theyre laughing at the awkwardness of the moment that the president is a central player of. I will add something we havent seen before is the french president Emmanuel Macron standing up to the president yesterday in the news conference, refugt him, doing realtime factchecking. It doesnt seem like the world is in awe at this meeting of President Trump or cowering in any way like weve seen before. Indicate la kaitlan, thats happening. Any sense impeachment is in front of the president s mind . Reporter its certainly something hes thinking about. Hes thinking of whats going on back in washington and pat maloney is getting ready for the House Judiciary Committee hearing. The president said he doesnt plan to watch because he has a lot of things going on, pullasides and oneonone meetings with World Leaders. Hell depart where hell be able to catch up on whats been going on at the hearing so far and what lawmakers are saying. The president is not looking forward to this part of the meeting because its the House Judiciary Committee and he feels he has more evoke cal vocal defenders. Kaitlan collins and nic robertson, thank you very much. Nunes says he was not involved in the president s Pressure Campaign on ukraine, so why do new phone records show him making multiple calls to a number of key players at the key time. Thats next.

Usaa the house intelligence committees impeachment report includes phone records that show the Top Republican on the house intelligence committee, congressman devin nunes, was involved in all sorts of phone calls that suggests a coordinated push to peddle false narratives regarding ukraine at the very least. Joining us now, charlie dent. Hes a former republican congressman who chaired as the House Ethics Committee. Thats why its so important to talk to you. Let me present to you the evidence you would have seen as the chair of the Ethics Committee. These calls show devin nunes and Rudy Giuliani repeatedly talking on april 10th. Then here are phone calls between devin nunes and lev parnas, one of the players in this who has been charged with trying to funnel with actually successfully funneling russian money into u. S. Elections. So he has four phone calls here on april 12th, one of them 8 1 2 minutes long. What do you think when you see these phone logs. Well, my reaction, based on the phone logs and what was reported, i believe, last week, allegedly that deshen nun ee ee gone to vienna to meet with some of these folks, i think, was the bigger issue, did he use tax monies to meet with lev parnas to meet with and investigation joe biden. If thats true, thats very serious. I suspect the House Ethics Committee could likely take up the matter. Lets talk about that because if you were still the chair of the House Ethics Committee, would you take up this matter . Well, based on what ive read, i would suspect that as the chairman i would talk to the Ranking Member by the way, the Ethics Committee some people should know this. Theyre investigating violations of house rules and formation of house rules. Some of these investigations could become criminal, but theyre dealing with violations. The chairman and Ranking Member will sit down and no doubt have a conversation about whether or not they should open an investigation. There are two types of investigations. One that they can open on their own and a second type where there would be a vote of the committee and they would impanel four members to investigate this. By the way, that committee is the only committee in congress that has even numbers of republicans and democrats. Youre saying that from what youve seen thus far, that this warrants an opening of a investigation. Well, i certainly think there should probably be a review of what happened, and i would start that way, to see and if that initial review by the chair and the Ranking Member, you know, finds that there is cause, you know, to make this a more formal investigation, then they would impanel the subcommittee. Again, based on the phone calls, i really couldnt say. I was more concerned about the reports last week about flying on a congressionally funded trip to fly to vienna to meet with them. Thats the bigger problem. I dont know what was said in the phone calls. Yeah. Its hard to know what was said in the phone calls because here is devin nuness explanation last night on fox. Its possible, but i havent gone through all of my phone records. I dont really recall that name. I remember the name now because hes been indicted. Ill go back and check on my records, but it seems very unlikely that i would be taking calls from random people. What do you think of his explanation of whether or not he spoke to lev parnas . I think more importantly for him, was he using a nonofficial phone or official phone when he was talking to lev parnas. That could actually matter if he was talking about investigating biden on resources, thats a problem. Let me understand this. Lets pretend its his own personal phone. Youre saying its okay for a ranking house member to talk to this indicted conspirator whos accused of funneling foreign money into u. S. Elections . No, im not saying its okay. You to also understand too. Something else could be happening simultaneously. If the Southern District of new york is looking at this, they could be looking at this from a criminal perspective, and thats completely different and thats Something Else we should share with the viewers is that its if sdny is investigating here, they could easily pick up the phone and call the Ethics Committee and say we would appreciate if you did not investigate this, we dont want to trip over each other while were investigating, we would like you to defer this to us, and the committee would off don it. They dont have to, but they could. Thats interesting. Keep that in mind. Will do. Congressman charlie accident, tha d dent, great to talk to you. Thank you. Kamala harris, she is out. How will the shakeup shake up the democratic field . Well have a live report next. Hes finally here hey how are you . Im good. How are you .

Senator Kamala Harris is out, ending her campaign for president. Cnns rebecca buck live in washington. Rebecca, this was about money and more. Reporter thats right, john. Shock is the perfect word for this. This is one of the most surprising developments yet in the 2020 race. Kamala harris announcing yesterday that she is dropping out because she does not have the money to compete. Take a listen to what she told her supporters. My dear supporters, it is with deep regret but also with deep gratitude that i am suspending our campaign today. But i want to be clear with you. I am still very much in this fight. Although i am no longer running for president , i will do everything in my power to defeat donald trump and fight for the future of our country and the best of who we are. Reporter now, it was no secret that harriss campaign was plagued by turmoil. There were widespread reports of mismanagement and we saw her missteps play out in realtime, but the timing of this was quite surprising because she had already qualified for the december debate. We had expected to see her on that stage. One person not disappointed, john and alisyn to see her missing from the stage, President Trump tweeting, too bad, we will miss you, a little tongue in cheek. She tweeted back, dont worry, mr. President. Ill see you at trial. This is not the last well see of Kamala Harris. She could be on the v. P. Running mate. Shes on every list. Shes on her way to iowa, which goes to show shes not leaving the political stage any time soon. Thats so nice. What a lovely polite exchange, rsvping. Its time for business news. A potential u. S. china trade deal is moving closer to reality despite whatever President Trump said yesterday. Christine romans with more. The trade drama has just been unbelievable. Well see if stocks can rebound. The message from the white house is the opposite. It was a tough day for investors coming to grips that a trade deal with china doesnt happen until after the election. Stocks down sharply after the president in these seven little seconds contradicted months of signs that a deal was close. In some ways, i like the idea of waiting till after the election for the china deal. Not even two months ago the president said a phase one smaller trade deal would be signed, talks would continue, and another trade deal would be signed next year. Instead things have escalated not only with china, but the president promising tariffs on arjgentin argentina, europe, and brazil too. The president likes to use these tariffs as a tool. Happy birthday to this tweet. A year ago exactly the president first called himself tariff man, when people and our countries come in and pay great wealth to our nation from doing some of its clear from the language the past couple of days he still feels this way. The question is whether companies and investors are prepared for another year of tariffs. Hint, they are not. He tells reporters hes not concerned about the stockmarket response. First he said it didnt matter because the stockmarket is up so much since hes been president. And then he says, i dont watch the stockmarket. You cant ignore what the president said. But there are times like yesterday where he says things out loud. Hes stringing things together and the market reacteds. It was not long ago that the secretary treasurer said were close to a trade deal. You have two new wrinkles, congress and the president signing bill supporting the hong kong protesters and now the latest wrinkle is congress and the condemnation of chinas treatment of the uighur minority. Christine, thank you very much. The House Judiciary Committee holds its first hearing, but could that hearing turn out to be politically damaging to democrats . Martin savidge traveled where a democrat narrowly won last year, and is his congressional seat now in jeopardy. This is what martin asked. Reporter stretching from charlton to hilton head, its home to representative Joe Cunningham, a firstterm democrat in a longtime republican stronghold. Thank you very much. We love you, folks.
