forward. he ignored the question if you didn t notice. nevada republican congressman mark amaday did him one better. watch what happens when man manu raju asks him a question about facts uncovered so far. the president asked for a public investigation into his rivals and also ukraine aid was being withheld. bill tailor testified that s your conclusion. no, no, that came out. sounds like a conclusion to me so we disagree. reporter: the president has asked for the ukrainians to investigate the bide dense. the president has asked for the whistle-blower complaint to go through the normal processes and we ve seen nothing beyond that. beyond that when you say you ve made the conclusion, it s like you re a gifted guy. guess what, it isn t over. you know what you think. reporter: white house transcript that was released had president trump asking president zelensky to open up an investigation. do you know if they ve even got plans to call the
share the contents of the communications with anyone? because that would be a leak in classified information, potentially. again, all of these witnesses deserve to be assuming we are going to use legal terms cross-examined. to that extent, it will be beneficial. but what has gone on, smart, crafty nancy pelosi and the democrats, because they kept the secret, you push the voters toward being in favor of impeachment to the point that then you can open it up. but she wanted to get the poll numbers pretty clearly on her side before they ever took a vote. harris: jessica, let s talk about this witness today. you heard brian saying it s a big day because it s another person on the call that we will hear from you. but outside of that, we won t know exactly what that person has said. jessica: no, we have a statement just like we had bill tailor s opening statement, 15 pages last week. both devastating for the
ken star, and then we will have ub public hearings. and first apparently in the intelligence committee and then moving to the judiciary committee. so this resolution does not authorize an inquiry in the first instance because they sflnow have a judge ruling they didn t have to do it. ambassador, let s just play you a little bit of what bill tailor, the former u.s. ambassador to ukraine, what he said about ukraine s president zelensky. and it is important because while all of this is going on, all of these people are doing their day jobs. we just got this today.
seems pretty bullet proof, well supported, well reasoned, and i have every expectation that the dc federal circuit court will afirmt that decision. charlie, the u.s. ambassador to the eu, this is different from bill tailor, he has a close relationship to donald trump, he is saying it did amount to a quid pro quo, what do you make of that? well, this is mr. sondland and he got into hot water because his earlier testimony does not match up with what other people have been telling the congress. and he is maybe going to come back and correct, amend, or clarify that testimony. he broke with trump. he agreed to testify even though
here is what bill tailor writes, i think it is crazy to withhold assistance for a political campaign, and sondland says bill, i believe you re incorrect about president trump s intentions. he later on goes to twliet is no quid pro quo here and if he has any concerns he should call some folks and that they need to stop this back and forth on the dex messages, so very concerning here. sondland will be on the hill on tuesday. there will be a lot of concerns. back to the whistle-blower issue. the president has been going after that whistle-blower in tweets saying the account of his phone calls with you crane is way off.
