it won t be the first nor the most important. no, not at all. the most important will be that this president engaged in a systematic pattern of bribery that started long before president zelensky was elected and continued right up until the time he was forced to give up that money to ukraine in order that they could use it to buy the weapons that they needed. we re almost out of time. based on the public evidence, where do you stand compared to the public evidence against nixon when those hearings began? this is completely different. it s actually a dynamic case. they have excellent evidence, great witnesses, credible witnesses, smart witnesses and lots of corroboration. do you have time for a quick, lighthearted, absurd question? absolutely. did president nixon s chief of staff ever confess at a national press conference and then take it back? no. but this was donald trump making his chief of staff do that. right. and legally, there are no backsies, right? you can t
department just prove that in open court? new testimony in the roger stone case. we ll get into it. breaking story tonight. up next, we return to chairman schiff laying out the public argument for how they want to impeach donald trump. it s bribery. impeach donald trump it s bribery about 50% of people with severe asthma have too many cells called eosinophils in their lungs. eosinophils are a key cause of severe asthma. fasenra is designed to target and remove these cells. fasenra is an add-on injection for people 12 and up with asthma driven by eosinophils. fasenra is not a rescue medicine or for other eosinophilic conditions. fasenra is proven to help prevent severe asthma attacks, improve breathing, and can lower oral steroid use. fasenra may cause allergic reactions. get help right away if you have swelling of your face, mouth, and tongue, or trouble breathing. don t stop your asthma treatments unless your doctor tells you to. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection

in some ways i almost feel badly for him. in fairness, heather yeah? after he told the truth he lied about his truthful confession. that s right. that s right. in fairness, he did cover both bases. i really like the full mulvaney. i m going to see if i can use that. i almost feel badly for him because he is like one of the many republicans who, right now, is really trapped in trying to figure out as more and more details are unfolding exactly what the republican line is going to be. first it was no quid pro quo. then quid pro quo is not a problem. now it s trying to chase around a process. then it s going to be bribery, once the democrats to making that argument, saying bribery is not a crime somehow. it s difficult. facts are pretty plain and simple. somehow the trump administration has continued to have their own goals, releasing the transcripts as if they were exonerating somehow. i think it s great we ve had so many members of our public service, hello, come out and
we didn t hold up the funds. i ask you, is that a valid, factual defense? absolutely not. an attempted bribery is the same as bribery. in fact, what the facts do show is that but for the fact that certain people in congress, both republicans and democrats, prevailed on the white house to release those funds, not knowing what was going on behind the scenes with rudy giuliani and the rest of the crowd that was trying to get this quid pro quo for investigating the bidens, that money was released. it was only by coincidence. had they waited a couple of more days, it would have been effective. this was a classic attempt at bribery, no matter how you define it. you are a watergate special prosecutor. you have the unique experience of what it means to investigate a president. before i turn to heather, where do you view chairman schiff s strategy tonight focusing on bribery? i give it an a plus.
