Republicans have said a lot of what theyre hearing is repetitive, but at least one admits some of this is fresh. Senator john kennedy of louisiana telling the New York Times ive learned a lot, everybody has, senators didnt know the case, they really didnt. We didnt stay glued to the television. We havent read the transcripts. Democrats not shying away from a topic republicans have tried to use against them. House managers repeatedly mentioned Hunter Bidens position on the board of the Ukrainian Energy company at the heart of gop conspiracy theories. Democrats also displayed elaborate exhibits throughout the day. Judiciary chairman jerry nadler using a 1999 clip of Lindsey Graham to make the case an actual crime is not required for impeachment. At the time graham was a house manager in the clinton impeachment trial. Its a high crime how about if an important person hurt someone of low means . Its not very scholarly, but i think its the truth. I think thats what they meant by high crimes. It doesnt have to be a crime, its just when you start using your office and youre acting in a way that hurts people. Youve committed a high crime. Senator graham was not in the chamber yesterday when that clip was being played. Now cnn has learned the president s allies are lobbying behind the scenes. They are pushing wavering republican senators to oppose any witnesses. That push coming not only from capitol hill but also identifying people back home the senators trust and getting them to call and push the senators. Democrats have 7 hours, 53 minutes left to open their case. Today theyll move onto article 2, obstruction of congress. Senior washington correspondent jeff zeleny has more. Reporter christine and laura, democratic impeachment managers begin making their last case in their opening arguments against President Trump. It was after a long day on thursday about going after abuse of power which is laid out in the article 1 impeachment. Now, throughout the day the democratic managers led by chairman adam schiff made the case that President Trump is an ongoing threat to the nation. It was no mistake, they argue, withholding that political aid from ukraine. And they listed through a crinology of events spanning over the months throughout the summer and fall a series of bad judgments and also intentional bad behavior. But it was at the end of a long day of trial of senators, all of them were sitting in their seats when chairman schiff implored them to do whats right and said this. You know you cant trust this president to do whats right for this country, you can trust he will do whats right for donald trump. Hell do it now. Hes done it before. Hell do it for the next several months. Hell do it in the election if hes allowed to. This is why if you find him guilty, you must find that he should be removed. Because right matters. Because right matters, and the truth matters. Otherwise we are lost. Reporter so those powerful words certainly hung hefbopy in the chamber, out bits unclear if republicans enough will join democrats to call for new witnesses or new evidence. Certainly no one is showing their hands to that point. But the final day today for the democratic managers to make their case. The president s lawyers begin making their case in a shorter session on saturday. Christine and laura . Jeff zeleny in washington. Thank you so much. Meantime President Trumps legal team was gearing up to present their defense suggesting they wont even need the allotted three days to do it. Were going to use a sufficient amount of time to not only defend our case and point out the inconsistencies of their case. Were going to do it it in an appropriate manner. Were not going to try to run the clock out. A growing number of republican senators are poircpo President Trumps threat to invoke executive privilege. That could bode well for majority leader Mitch Mcconnells goal of a swift conclusion to the Senate Impeachment trial. Four gop senators who could force the chamber to call witnesses, well, theyre not saying much at all right now. Theyre mostly waiting for kms to finish their opening arguments before committing to a vote which could come as early as next week. And chinese officials plan to ramp up their efforts to fight the spread of the deadly coronavirus by building a dedicated pneumonia hospital in wuhan by the middle of next week. Much like the one built during the 2003 sars outbreak. Dozens have died in china, and nearly 850 people have been infected worldwide. But the World Health Organization says coronavirus hasnt spread enough overseas for it to be considered a Global Health emergency. Cnns david colver is live for us in beijing for us. What are officials saying now . Its 850 people. Its incredible. Reporter right, it is incredible, laura. And chinese officials are contributing a lot of their information, were told, to the World Health Organization. But the w. H. O. , while they believe it does transmit human to human and thats something we learned from chinese officials earlier this week, they say they dont have enough information quite yet how readily infectious this is. But nonetheless they are still moving forward with investigating this. And the cdc of course handling that within the u. S. Itself. Now, here in china the biggest concern is surfacing on social media. Its this desperation were seeing out of wuhan. We left more than 24 hours now, but our contacts there have confirmed that narrative to us. You see that overflow at hospitals, influx of patients and really lack of ability to provide the proper care turning some people with fevers even away. Cnn has gained a few videos that we want to share with you from chinese social media. We havent independently confirmed these and verified them but our producers did go through and look at the images and dialects and they seem to be genuine. They show everything from tents being setup as makeshift hospital rooms to accommodate the surge of people. They show a woman as you may have heard there shouting towards a line of patients trying to get tested and telling them as best as she could to keep quiet and to not be nervous. Thats quite difficult in those situations. And this view from one patient in their hospital bed looking out and imagine seeing this, your hospital staff and the medical workers who are supposed to be assisting you and attending to you covered in hazmat suits. Thats what theyre wearing to protect themselves for obvious reasons. Now, this is something, laura, that has been echoed across china right now and growing concern out of how things are being handled within what is the partial lock downed city of wuhan. Hazmat suits are a little disturbing for anybody who is there. We should mention the centers for Disease Control has now increased travel precautions for wuhan to the highest possible level. David, thank you so much for being there for us. It has been delayed twice already.

The state department will no longer issue visitor visas to women believed to be traveling to the u. S. Specifically to gain birthright citizenship for their children. Thou the rule wll be enforced will mostly be up to the discretion of visa officers, and state department officials, well, theyve struggled to explain exactly how all of this is going to work. The rules say screening officers cant directly ask if the women are pregnant unless they can cite a specific reason for doing so. The white house wants more tax cuts. The president has asked us to start working on what we call tax 2. 0, and that will be additional tax cuts that fuel the economy. Therell be tax cuts for the midd middle class and well be also looking at other incentives to stimulate Economic Growth. President trump has dangled more tax cuts before. His 2017 tax package slashed Corporate Tax rates. Those cuts were permanent for corporations, telephoneerary for the middle class. That tax law and a huge twoyear spending bill have swelled the federal budget deficit despite Trumps Campaign promise to shrink or even eliminate the deficit. Its an unusual situation. Usualhy the deficit widens in economic down turns, but the u. S. Economy is expanding. The president said in his second term hes open to cutting federal entitlements to reduce the deficit despite his Campaign Promise to protect medicare and Social Security. In 2016 President Trump said he wouldnt have to touch Social Security because his plan to boost the economy by at least 4 Economic Growth would take care of entitlements and longterm problems. The economy is growing at half the pace promised by the president. Powerful testimony in the harvey wine stein Sexual Assault trial.

President trump says his long awaited middle east peace plan will be unveiled in the next few days. Its expected to be released some time before israels Prime Minister and Opposition Leader visit the white house on tuesday. Cnns orenleibermrin leiberman n jerusalem. What more are you hearing there . Reporter it looks like it has more with benefitting two people in particular. First of course President Donald Trump and second Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu. Look at the timing of this. Trump himself has the impeachment hearings in washington while netanyahu faces indictment here in three criminal cases as well as immunity hearings set to start the same day. Beyond that netanyahu is in the middle of a tough Reelection Campaign after failing the former government twice, that third election in march just over a month out. Even those generally supportive of a u. S. Led Peace Process are deeply, deeply skeptical of the intent of putting out this plan now. Twice the administration held this now to put it right before this election seems to be an indication the Trump Administration has gone all out for netanyahu. It looked like the administration backed away from netanyahu before the last election, but now it seems someone in the Trump Administration whether its trump himself, jared kushner, secretary of state mike pompeo or ambassador David Freeman decided netanyahu is the way they want to go. Netanyahu he was trumps loudest international cheerleader, has cheered every trump move and pushed other World Leaders to do the same and never once criticized trump. Meanwhile it puts nettanyahus rival and now he basically has to decide whether hes going to commit to the peace plan which seems to mean throwing some weight behind netanyahu. Where is this process going . Well, it could be a trump green light for annexation for some parts of the west bank by netanyahu. As for the palestinians theyre almost sure to reject this. It will likely tick all of the boxes and then some and few of the palestinian balks. All right, an upset down under. Serena williams losing in her third round match of the Australian Open. Serenas quest for grand slam title number 24, it continues. Thats the number she needs to tie for the most alltime. And serena didnt have it in this match against chinas qiang wang. Serena went for the third set but would end up losing. And she now hasnt won a slam since winning the Australian Open back in 2017. I was optimistic i would be able to win. I thought, okay, now ill finish this off. I honestly didnt think i was going to lose that match. Honestly if we were just honest with ourselves its all on my shoulders. I lost that match. I cant play like that. I literally cant do that again. Its unprofessional and not cool. The main event of the day at the tournament was defending champion naomi osaka taking on 15yearold coco gauff, but a different result this time. Coco dominating the match winni winning 63, 64 and she now moves onto the next round and even coco cant believe how far shes come. Oh, my gosh, two years ago i lost first round in juniors and now im here. This is crazy. The starters for this years allstar game in chicago lebron once again getting the most votes. Theyll draft the teams on february 6th on inside the nba. Hes a starting and lebrons teammate Anthony Davis also in the starting lineup. Its going to be a special game for him since hes from chicago. And check out the hawks trey young when he found he was an allstar for the very first time. He broke down with emotion. Definitely a special moment to share right there with his mom. Finally the pro bowl is this weekend and one of those fun parts of the week has become the dodge ball challenge. The afc down to their final man and he put on a show. Singlehandedly wins the game for the afc catching that final ball there from the cowboys jalen smith, impressive catch. Christine, i mean thats the way i would do it. I would really just put my team as all Wide Receivers if they would have the best chance, right, catching the ball . Exactly. Linebacker versus receiver, it seems like a mismatch there.

The democrats turn to obstruction of Congress Today after a powerful presentation on abuse of power at the impeachment trial. Growing concerns about the deadly coronavirus. Its spreading beyond china but why Health Officials are not ready to declare it an emergency. Gripping testimony at the Harvey Weinstein trial. Actress anabella sciorra with vivid details of the night she says the producer raped her. And a busy night for the americans at the Australian Open. Who goes on and who goes home . Good morning, everyone. Its about 31 minutes past the hour here in new york. Today will be the third and final day of opening arguments for the democrats in the trial to impeach and remove President Trump from office. House managers on thursday made the case the president abused his power. They tried to convince the skeptical and tired republican senators the trial needs more witnesses and more documents. Republicans have said a lot of what theyre hearing is repetitive, but at least one admits some of this is fresh. Senator john kennedy of louisiana telling the New York Times, quote ive learned a lot, everybody has. Senators didnt know the case.

House managers making the case for President Trumps removal focused today on obtrukz of congress. Yesterday democrats argued the president had abused the power of his office relying on a long list of exhibits and they went on offense repeatedly a topic republicans used against them, hunter biden and the Ukrainian Energy company burisma. Lets bring in a cnn political analyst. Good morning. Was this hunter biden, burisma, these references was this sort of inoculation what theyre expecting to hear from the republicans, a prebut if you will. They have to walk a fine line here between addressing this and also saying that testimony from him would be irrelevant. Exactly. And i think what you were hearing from democrats yesterday is that the hunter biden and Joe Biden Burisma saga was really at the heart of this of this scheme to dig up dirt on joe biden and to and to block the funding from ukraine. So they couldnt really not address it, but, yes, to your point they really did this in order to prebut what they think is going to come from the president s lawyers and to sort of get their version of this out first before theyre before the American People and the senators hear it from the president s side. Jackie, one narrative you start to see emerging now is executive privilege, and we heard this from leader mcconnell saying, look, this whole thing will get slowed down if you try to call the likes of john bolton. The communication is privileged, this will go to the courts. Are constituents back home going to go for this, though . Will they buy the idea bolton cant testify about anything because its all protected . So that is one of the things democrats have been harping on and one of the things why nancy pelosi has said she held onto the articles of impeachment, so they really could build this idea that this is a matter of fairness, that they really should be able to hear from people like john bolton, particularly bolton more than somebody like mick mulvaney, the president s acting of of staff, bolton has said hes willing to testify. He does not work there anymore. Theres nothing they can really do to him if he does want to testify. So they can try to block him, they can try to use executive privilege, however its really up to john bolton at the end of the day. And he said he will come forward and testify if he has that congressional subpoena. Democrats finishing up today. How have they done . I mean, when you watch this you see them telling this story again and in some cases telling it to senators as if they havent been following along and, you know, some of them probably havent been following along. Admittedly havent been following along. How are they doing telling this story with, you know, clips, video clips and props and exhibits . You know, i feel like it depends on who you speak to. Lindsey graham himself went up to adam schiff after that first day of his oratory really and said hes making a compelling case. But it really doesnt seem like theyre changing a lot of minds. They are trying to make the case they do need these witnesses and they need to beable to get some of these documents the president has blocked, which is part of this obstruction of congress piece of the articles of impeachment. However, its a it would be a very bold thing for some of these senators to do to go against the president and his team who are pushing for this to be a swiftly ended trial. Were also getting some reporting the president s allies behind the scenes have been pushing having allies call these senators to ask them about calling witnesses, trying to, you know, really put the pressure back home. From back home to try to put the pressure. If this was a criminal trial you would not have the defense team talking to the jurors. What do you make of that . Is that an effective strategy . Is it fair . I think it depends on the senator. Someone like a Lamar Alexander who was one of the senators that could potentially vote to allow testimony, hes not coming back next year. Hes retiring, and hes had a long career in the senate, so and it also might backfire. Senators dont like to be pressured that overtly, and they particularly dont like us talking about the fact theyre sucombing to pressure from the white house and thats a risky endeavor from the white house for some of these senators who are no stranger to pressure, particularly these moderates. It happens every time theres a big vote. Cnn political analyst and Washington Bureau chief at the daily beast. Have a great weekend, rest of your day, jackie. Good to see you. Well, beijing and shanghai now on the highest level of a public heth emergency because of coronavirus. Chinese officials ramping up efforts to fight the spread. Theyre building a dedicated pneumonia hospital in wuhan by the middle of next week. Much like the one quickly built during the 2003 sars outbreak, a Major Economic impact in the region shanghai has closed disneyland, even the section of the great wall of china closest to beijing has been shutdown. Dozens have died in china and nearly 850 people have now been infected worldwide. But the world helkt Organization Says coronavirus hasnt spread enough overseas for it to be considered a Global Health emergency. Cnns david colver is live in beijing. David, what more can you tell us . Reporter laura, the World Health Organization says they do acknowledge it does spread human to human, and thats something chinese scientists announced even earlier this week and we know theyve been sharing their information with the w. H. O. They do not know quite yet how readily infectious this is. Why does it matter if they declare this a global emergency . That can impact how other countries are perceiving this and the attention it gets and more importantly the funding. I want to show you what were seeing out of wuhan because we were there a little bit more than 24 hours now but were still on touch with folks on the ground. And social media giving us a desperate story line and its tough to see. I want to show you some of the images. First off you can see this video. It shows tents being setup. It shows the overflow, the influx of the number of patients that are flooding into these hospitals. Another video shows a woman who is apparently a Health Care Worker going down a line, a long line of potential patients who are potentially have been exposed to the coronavirus. Shes yelling something to them. You might be able to hear that. Shes essentially telling them to keep quiet and not be nervous. And lastly this piece of video gives us a patients perspective. Imagine being in a hospital bed and looking up and seeing this, several hazmat suits that are being worn by several of the medical team members there. Its disturbing but even more disturbing is the frustration were hearing, laura from folks who feel all these restrictions and measures while they may have been effective early on they feel like theyre coming a little bit too late. Thats the reality for folks dealing with this right now, and for them its changed their whole lifestyle. Theyre restricted essentially to their homes. Too little too late, thats really the question.
