Of the trump Legal Defense team. But first my open. If the democrats, the creators of the Star Chamber Impeachment in the subbasement of the capital had their way, President Trump would not be allowed to stand trial, crossexamine witnesses or defend himself. He would go directly, but luckily this is still america and finally after three and half years of hate and venom spewed by the left, the president has a day to defend himself. This time against two articles of impeachment brought by the radical left as they continue revenge for the loss of power in 2016. I sat in the Senate Chamber and listen to the president s lawyers to the lies of adam schiff, la nadler and pelosi and schumer as excruciating as it was to be in the courtroom, and the Senate Chamber, it was sad to hear the true facts that totally rebutted the outlandish claims of those who resist of duly commanderinchief. The president s lawyer were respectful and lucid and concise and showing how adam schiffs parity of the transcript of the president ial call, adam schiffs purposeful defense were lies. Whatever adam schiff said, were contrary to the facts. It can even show his face in public indicative of his psychosis. He lives with arrogance, pull paucity and sink the money for the collusion and trump being a puppet and every other claim. It was one line in the Mueller Report that put truth to the light. Ultimately is the words obama learned in his report, this investigation did not establish that the campaign coordinated or conspired with the russian government and the election interference activities. Let me say that again. The Mueller Report resulted in this. That for this. Ultimately the investigation did not establish that the campaign coordinated or expired with the russian government and the election related interference activities. That quote from the democrats chose the special counsel mueller with adam schiff still wont give it up. Ask yourselves, how many times adam schiff to inhouse managers continue to mention russia which is irrelevant in this impeachment. The truth does not matter to them. No surprise, this past thursday, the department of justice and the chief judge of the fisa court ruled that the fisa warned against carter page ultimately meant to spite on donald trump was improper, not a probable cause but on a lie by the fbi in the department of justice. They simply lie, ruthless people. And they say the president thinks hes a dictator and a king. The only people acting like dictators are pelosi and company. They decided that america should go through hell and they would put one american against another because they lost power. They are the dictators. Face it though, you guys are one of 535 in congress. The president is the one and only president , and makes you guys crazy doesnt it. Now we took the president s lawyers a couple hours to show in the transcript of call declassified a president of a discussion of a little guilty recognized burden sharing where the president talked about countries not paying their fair share in corruption in ukraine. Both statutorily allowed reasons for holding money. Both discussed on the call. The democrats never told you that because it was a legitimize call they would so desperately want to use for impeachment. They claim that even president zelensky when he said there was no pressure by President Trump that president zelensky was lying to you. In addition to the house managers being off their meds, the democrats can read minds to. So if it suits their purpose, they want you to believe the president of ukraine is a liar if he supports President Trump. Great for foreignpolicy relations need to aint it. They say he should be impeached because he delayed giving aid. It was given to ukraine within the allotted time. No delay. YoMarie Yovanovitch was worried they would die if they were not given the eight. But the aide was given, it was not even to that year, it was the following year. I have an idea. We might go back i in and peterh obama. But this group of trump haters said nothing about obama because they care even less about ukrainians then they do about the truth. Today was the first day of a logical defense of the president. Based on reason, fax and an appeal to your common sense. The democrat house manager, adam schiff, nadler and company have threatened the senators. If they do not agree with the house version and convict the president then they too are part of the coverup. Imagine. Prosecutors openly threatening the jury but this is what happens with the radical left, sooner or later there hate will extend to you if you do not agree with them. They suffer from their resentment and jealousy of a man they can barely stand up to. I know no one who could withstand the intense with the fbi, the department of justice, the house of representatives, congress, the leftwing media to literally take him down. But that is why in the end he will succeed. He will withstand the storm. Truth needs no excuse, it needs no cover, all it needs is a fair hearing. The American People have already given him that. In the United States senate will continue in the same effort. And that is my open. Let me know what do you think on my facebook and twitter, judge dineen. Here to react to my open, and the first day of arguments on this impeachment trial from President Trumps defense team, James Lankford and mike brown join me now. Thank you so much for being here. Its been a long week and a long day for you although shorter compared to some of the others. You heard the house manager in the president defense team, how do you compare the two based on what you heard today. We got the rest of the story im an oldschool fan on harvey, he used to talk about the rest of the story from proverbs 1817, that proverb says the first to make his case until they are crossexamined. Today was the first day of crossexamination. Before we got stories like historical fiction from the last three days from the house managers saying little bits and facts with a whole lot of fiction speculation. Today piece after piece after piece of the rest of the story over and over again. I tried to get the actual information. Very factbased and very concise. Do you agree with what the senator is saying there was a lot of cherry picking going on, do you feel there was a difference in the handling . No doubt about it. The most amazing thing was watching all three versions of the house inquiry. From behind closed doors leaking it out, the public version before constitutional experts and some senators i do not know whats that i did, there was not one new piece of information. It was repackaging, reframing and bludgeoning us with all the information that was only repetitive. I think and not only how much they put out there but in the style in which they delivered. When adam schiff did in his Closing Arguments that grew dramatic evoking lincoln and could not resist coming out with what do you think about the fact if you go against the president your head might end up on a pike. How did you take that. I could not believe he said that, there was a collective groan among everyone on our side, i looked at the other side of the aisle and they did not groan but they were shocked by that as well. The people that the president is focused on when adam schiff goes in and says that the republicans are threatening if you dont vote against impeachment, your head will be on a pike. Adam schiff repeated of course. But Susan Collins some say is a republican on the defense, lisa murkowski, they both lisa actually yelled not true in the senate which is not like people in the senate. Lisa murkowski said that is over the top. Thats when you lost me. Did adam schiff come in with a clean slate or is he known as pinocchio. He is insulting. We know hes the white House Counsel that brought up 2017 interview where he said we have all the information, this is not just information circumstantial, we know what the president did. So he has been saying these conspiracy theories all along that we have secret information on the president and we know his motives and we got what we need and over and over again. It is not true. He is not saying what is actually factual hes trained to spin something and that was shown clearly today whether it was white house meeting that even in the phone call the president zelensky said why dont we just meet in poland instead in the house managers locked apart. But it was over and over again on each issue even on the evidence. The truth is that they were skipping over. What do you say when adam schiff criticized president zelensky and said even though we said theres no pressure, he meant there was pressure. How do you think zelensky in the ukrainians are looking at this impeachment and adam schiff to particular. They have to be astounded as well. They know as well as anyone that President Trump deliver them lethal aid. Look at what did not happen during the obama administration. At one point i had people call me from indiana in the general population especially in the heartland is not measuring pros and cons or getting the details, what i hear, why dont you stress that this started within our grecian on trying to impeach him. This came over in a partisan way actually bipartisan against it and then youre trying to unravel an election and prevent another one in nine months. People from indiana where trump carried the state by 19 points backing 16, they are not buying this and they want to get at the roots outweigh the started in the first base. Adam schiff and his buddies have been behind it sent the president got elected. There is no question that it started when the president came down on the escalator. They have tried everything adam schiff to himself, the messenger of this impeachment he has lied so much another fisa court has come down and said even the spying on carter page was on probable cause. Do you think that you guys are going to end up voting for more witnesses given that it looks like the president will be done by tuesday. They will do 16 hours of questions were any senator can ask any question and we will do that for two days in all likelihood and then a decision by witnesses. I cannot predict where they will go without one. My questions are already been answered. Theres a whole group of folks that are out there pushing including adam schiff in the house democrats. Its not a fair trial if you do not do it like we did not do it. It is a really bizarre thing and they did not have extra witnesses or allow the white house to be involved, theres 78 days total involved in the impeachment and the president was only allowed to be there seven days. They block the president over and over again but now they say dont do like us, to do it fair do it not like us. What theyre trying to do is stretch the trial out and make a go as long as it can through the election cycle. This is a Campaign Issue to stretch it out. I think people see through that. Circumstantial case when it comes to witnesses of full argument, they know that would be reciprocal. When we get our witnesses, thats a big deal in the whole thing may go away. Thank you so much for being on justice. We appreciate your time. What did Rudy Giuliani think about the accusation on his way during the Senate Impeachment trial this week.

My next guest is a target ever t accusation. Take a look at jerry nadler and what he had to say about the president attorney Rudy Giuliani. President zelensky was taking power, mr. Giuliani was already engaged in the effort to convince ukrainian officials to announce two investigations. The first was an effort to smear former Vice President joe biden. The second, was designed to undermine the Intelligence Community and animus assessment that russia interfered in the 2016 election. Joining me now is the man on the other side of the attack former new york city mayor and attorney for the president Rudy Giuliani. He is a longtime new york congressman and you know well from your not new york days, he claims talk to me. I wanted them to investigate because it would help to a school take my client and nothing would take up dirt on biden. It was handed to me on november 2018. The biden family so between 8 8 28 million in ukraine, biden was involved into massive bribes, he disgraced the United States of america and nadler should be ashamed for covering up for him. He also did the same thing in iraq and his brother got a piece of a 1. 5 billion housing project. And he did the same thing in china when he was. Man and the kid got a 1. 5 billion investment from china. Biden is so dirty that you and i wouldve had the him and died ax month ago. And nadler is covering up for kirk. I dont care if he was Vice President and i dont care hes running president of the United States. Joe biden is a crook and he sold out the United States of america in iraq, and ukraine, and china. If we cannot prosecute him we do not have justice in america. Now there is a sound where he says what Marie Yovanovitch out of the way the first chapter with complete giuliani and his agents can plight direct pressure to ukraine government to spread the false hope. Who sent mr. Giuliani in the first place, then he does what did the president know and when did he know. All you have to do is look at him and listen to him. Hes a jackass. Hes a politician who repeats every democratic line there is an half the time hes lying his head off. He is covering up a massive scandal. At the highest level of the United States government and the ukrainian government. The Vice President of the United States corrupted the president of the ukraine. He has all the media on his side. They do not want to deal with the facts. I will say one more time, joe biden has been a crook for most of his career, every time joe biden was appointed man do noah happen, the biden family made millions. We need to have the evidence, do you have the evidence . I have the evidence ive been showing them for months. Can we see the evidence. I put out the evidence in april, march, it was ignored. You sell it on television, on fox. It was just on our way in, its censored, they dont want to look at the evidence. It is out there i want you to send it to me. Go look it awa and watch my podcast next tuesday and next friday, he will directly testify about the bribe and he will testify that they attempted to kill him and i have the records from the hospital that he attempted to murder him. This is very dangerous and these people what theyre doing is despicable. I want to turn your attention to the new video that was released by the attorney, he says he chose President Trump at an april 2018 dinner with others with the president is ordering to fire then u. S. Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch. You know the president and you have seen the tape i assume, but the question is, many are asking as a president said in the past he did not know who he was, you know both of them can you shed light on this . I did not know him at the time of the take. That was the time that i met him. And i was at the dinner but the president goes to dinner with about a thousand people and it may not be the most memorable person and the reason the president said it because he was told by the people at the dinner that the ambassador was saying that you should not Pay Attention to President Trump because hes going to get impeached. They leave out of the tape because there despicable liars. The president asked them to play the whole tape to be fair. In 2018 before the impeachment started Marie Yovanovitch predicted the president would be impeached. Let me tell you about Marie Yovanovitch, shes a Hillary Clinton president partisan. She was a Hillary Clinton campaign. She helped gather dirt on manafort trump and tried to fix four cases and i have the under oath and on tape including to try to help georges company. She is crooked. I am going to have you back. I will give you again on my podcast. Everybody covers it up. I will not. Thank you so much. Can we see emotion to the dismissed and the president impeachment trial. I caught up with ted cruz and asked that question and more for all out confidence. Depend® silhouette™ briefs feature maximum absorbency, beautiful colors and an improved fit for a sleek design and personal style. Lifes better when youre in it. Be there with depend®. Jeanine. Earlier i caught up with ted cruz on capitol hill to get his take on opening arguments from trumps defense team in case the dems layout earlier this week. Take a look. Thank you so much for taking time out, i know it is a busy day and i know you been in washington for a long time. But i want to thank you for doing this. Today was a very interesting day. Today was the first day that the president s team had opportunity to lay out what it is the intent to prove. You been in many courtrooms, what did it feel like today, hows it different, hes in power, hes done this, you think hes a dictator. I think it was gratifying, then first time the president has had to defend him throughout the whole proceeding in the house, they would not let the president defend himself. I think every senator is grateful that the never ending opening argument, the 24 hours of nonstop from the house managers open. As they are Closing Argument ended last night, my sense in the sense of a lot of people, they failed to prove their case. Today the president s lawyers, did ineffective job reporting how selective their quotations were from the record, how much they left out and im really looking forward to monday. On monday starting at 1 00 p. M. We come back to the trial in the president s lawyers will present the printable defense and what i hope to hear from them is a substance defense on the merits. That lays out the case on the facts for the president s innocence. I think the house managers made a critical mistake on how they structure their argument. A central element of their argument is a proposition that it was faceless and frivolous to want to investigate maries mom Ukrainian Natural Gas Company and whether or not joe biden and hunter biden were paying 100 bucks a year in they pressured him and threatened 1 billion in aid to force ukraine to fire the prosecutor who was investigating burisma. How does this trial resolve any of that. This is about one defendant and i hate even referring to him as that. The house managers laid out the proposition that it was baseless, fraudulent, phony and no basis whatsoever for seeking an investigation into burisma, the total answer is there was overwhelming evidence of corruption and a president is always justified. He has a responsibility to investigate corruption. The fundamental argument that disposes of this case, it makes clear the president did nothing impeachable as he has the authority to investigate corruption. The house manager goes from the door did hunter biden testify, they made it relevant and critical. Lets talk about one of the things that i thought was very important that might lead to a motion to dismiss. I want your opinion that, they basically said that the second article of obstruction is not based in any thing substantive because the house that nancy pelosi announce we are going to begin this impeachment investigation had no jurisdiction of authority to grant subpoenas. Therefore if the president did not abide by the subpoenas it is not obstruction. There has to be a vote in the house. That is certainly a legal argument that the president s lawyers are putting forth, they put it in forth in their brief. The obstruction charges secondary to the house managers case. This case i dont think you will see a motion to dismiss. The way things they will play out, we will see the opening argument continue on monday, maybe tuesday then we will have 16 hours of questions from senators. We cannot assess questions ourselves, i would love to go round and round with adam schiff, but the senate rules do not allow. Instead we have to write your questions in the chief justice will ask questions for us. What i expect to see after that, we will vote on additional witnesses it be necessary and whether in order. That may be a close vote, we know 47 democrats will vote yes. There might be for republicans who vote with them. I do not know. Those support romney and Susan Collins and lisa murkowski, and lamar . Thats the rumor. I dont think theres need for additional witnesses, we have more than enough to reject these articles on the merits but they have not proven their case. And there in the motion to dismiss. I dont think itll be a motion to dismiss. Itll be initially a vote on witnesses. If well vote no additional witnesses are necessary, the next vote will be a mason for justice. Rather than dismiss we will go to judgment and acquit the president which means we will stand up and vote guilty or not guilty on each of the articles. Its a much better outcome for the president and country for him to be acquitted, not dismissed and throw the case out but reach final judgment and find the president not guilty. That will be the end of this because the house managers have not met the constitutional standard approving high crimes and misdemeanors. The president has the authority to investigate serious allegation of corruption. There were massive allegations of corruption, at least enough evidence to justify an investigation. In the end, how long you think this will take. I know you talk about the witnesses taking time. Theres a fork in the road, if it is 51 senators vote, we dont need additional and this will end next week. If 51 senators say we need additional witnesses, if that happens we have got to be fair, we have to follow the principle which means if they get john bolton, we get hunter biden. We go down the road to witnesses, this could take weeks or months. But at the end of the day the result will be the same. What i do every day when i leave the trial, i am going in building a podcast, his verdict with ted cruz, i billed it at three in the morning because thats when we were done. Just talking about any detail form, the facts, the substance in the constitutional issues at stake. Ive never done a podcast before, in four days would become the number two podcast in the country. Congratulations. Secondly this is your real house, i was in there today, i was afraid i was going to fall over the railing. But i hear people falling asleep and i say to myself how can you fall asleep, its exciting. But its exciting having you here and i hope youll be on soon. Congratulations. Jeanine the senators podcast went to number one as soon as we finish the interview. I am good look for him. Two congressional members of the trump team join me next. Stay with guys, its that time. And nothins happenin. Well now theres score , from force factor, to rev your libido and maximize physical response. Its no wonder walmart offers score in more locations than any other performance enhancer. Unleash your potential in the bedroom, with score . Jeanine breaking tonight, Bernie Sanders holding a Campaign Rally in ames iowa. Second in the Hawkeye State just a few hours. Aoc is one of the featured speakers. Lets listen in for a moment. What is 3 better when people are incarcerated for decades, what is 3 better when people are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loan debt. What is 3 better when children are being incarcerated at the border. We dont need 3 better. We dont need 10 better. We need fundamental change in the United States of america. [applause] that is why i am here. That is why i am here. But what is going to take is for us to change our politics as well. It will require. Jeanine thats aoc at Bernie Sanders rally at iowa. We will keep an eye on it. My next guest has called impeachment is rigged. Two members of trumps team, lees alden and debbie lesko. Thank you so much for being with us, it has been a long week for both of you and for most of america. But i will start with you, what is your take as you watch the fellow house members who are managers in the senate . It was like reliving a nightmare. I am a Judiciary Committee and i heard hours and hours of this repeat, repeat, repeat. Such exaggeration with lies quite frankly. And really rhetoric and that did not go over very well in the senate. But now the senators are seeing what we have to endure over the house for hours upon hours in a bunch of quite honestly bs. Jeanine as you watch today what do you think jay sekulow in the president s team, how do you think they handle this and did they put to rest issues that were outstanding . The use of two hours to effectively demolish what was 21, 22, 23 hours on the house impeachment managers, adam schiff is really trying to write the worlds greatest parity. Its a fiction that he is telling. Hes trying to connect dots not connected. Hes relying on presumptions and assumptions and lies in hearsay. Go back to the closeddoor depositions, cherry picking leaks and key facts in outright lies, hes doing the same thing now but with the chief justice of the Supreme Court with 100 senators in front of him and 10 Million People watching at home. Hes trying to overturn an election that happened and influence it coming up and unfortunately you have great people armed with facts and they crush it. Hes eviscerated this case the adam schiff was set up for failure because its fiction. Jeanine congresswoman lesko, in terms of adam schiff in the presentation of the house managers, right now what we heard very clearly today from the president s team that they are basically calling president zelensky a liar. How do you think thats affecting the United States visavis ukraine. It is terrible. It is unfortunate because all the democrats care about is grabbing back power, they dont care about america. Meanwhile President Trump is going forward, doing great things for america and all they care about their wasting time, theyre wasting money and theyre shutting down the government over this impeachment stuff and its all political. They just want power, they want to get President Trump out, they want to take over the senate, they want to retain the house. It is like a big actor something. I just hope the American People see through this and see it for what it is. Jeanine and the senate as well. Congress insulted, adam schiff disdain we have to stop this guy now because the 2020 election is not going to be fair. Is the senate buying this stuff . One network today, a democratic senator was talking about her fear that President Trump might get reelected. This is the stuff that al green was talking about in the house. You could play the videotapes going back to when the president was first elected in right outside where we are now the streets of pennsylvania avenue lined up that said impeach him now. His hand was on the bible taking oath and doing everything empowered to taken down and quite frankly they made their mind up a long time before. Most house impeachment managers voted against the 18 ukraine that theyre trying to sit there and attack the president four. After the show give me that list. I want to know who they are who voted against him. Some of these house impeachment managers voted for impeachment before any of the stuff happen. This president that provide legal aid that president obama refused to do. Jeanine lee zeldin and debbie lesko, thank you so much. Jeanine newly classified documents leaked that to fisa warrants use just by on carter page were not valid because they lacked probable cause, here to react to the explosive revelation which most of us knew in the first place is the president of Judicial Watch tom fitton. I can just say, hit it but for the first thing i want to ask before i get to that, what did you think about the president seen in the senate. I thought it was great. I would be more outraged than they were but they were appealing to the jury in the senate. It was nice to see facts, evidence and the rule of law take precedence over what i call the gossiping impeachment that i call the law and adam schiff. They have been held hostage by adam schiff. Its a hostage situation. Jeanine it was very interesting, i was there. Lets talk about the fisa word. For years weve been talking about the fact that the dossier that was paid for by Hillary Clinton that Money Laundering to the Foreign Agent who wrote it based upon sources that were actually alive. We finally get d. O. J. , the chief justice of the fisa court to say this is not good. Yes the Justice Department wrote a letter to the judge early december saying two of the fisa warrants were not valid, there was no predicate to spy on carter page. It was not about spinal carter page it was about targeting presented term. The two warrants they disavowed were warrants that the fisa warrant signed during the trump administration. Including a few weeks after mueller was appointed. They further confirm not only is the president and carter page not only are they crime victims what the whole Mueller Operation is compromised. Entree to a degree every light on anything to hold out of the fisa applications against carter page. Jeanine they say the warrant was not predicated on probable cause and that was the last two of the four. Does that suggest they never got to the first two . Or what does it tell you. The court says theyre not taking opposition but theyre taking the position practically speaking the all evidence gathered under the words was taken up improperly and needs to be corn team. Jeanine does carter pay travel lawsuit . I would think he is looking at millions of dollars in damages. You have the government admitting, they have no lawful reason to spy on him, hes been smeared repeatedly. This dossier that has been seen, really at the heart of the fisa warrant, no dossier, no Mueller Operation. Whose dossier was it again, Hillary Clinton. Do you want to know why this man, President Trump is being impeached, do you want to know why theyre screaming, theyre afraid the Justice Department may after three years star prosecuting the Obama Clinton getting. Jeanine one at that be nice. What you do to freeze the Justice Department try to remove the head of the government. Jeanine thank you so much tom fitton. Jeanine finally tonight, thank you for watching this special addition on Jeanine Pirro advocating for truth, justice and the american way. Go to judge jeanine. Store and get a tshirt that says impeach this. Get it from nancy. The great couple shows coming up and i will see you next saturday night. Thank you so much for being with us. Theres a reason why we are still here, is a five till midnight. Its your damn fault. [cheering] impeachment, they came, they saw, they spewed like clowns with dysentery. In the media slobbered like hunter biden in a strip club. I thought adam schiffs performance was maybe his best. I thought it was dazzling, the way he mold through the facts of the
