every day from washington, but we have certainly gotten it from you. thanks to both of you. thanks, ari. thank you, sir. coming up, why did rudy do it? our report on his role in the bribery plot and the new exposure he faces. we take a look at whether there are cracks in trump s republican fire wall. are cracks in trump s republican fire wall. cut. liberty biberty- cut. we ll dub it. liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need. only pay for what you need. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. applebee s new sizzlin entrées. now starting at $9.99.
crime. for many politicians and both parties in congresses and state houses, basically everywhere but the white house, bribery can get you a ticket straight to prison. and a bribery plot is still a felony, even if there is no official money involved or even necessarily an explicit quid pro quo spelled out that is what the precedents say, which should weigh on the mind of any politician in any party caught up in a bribery plot, whether it s successful or not. now what congress does with tomorrow s report on so many of these fax and with wednesday s hearing, well, as always that will be up to the congress. we re going get into all of this and a lot more with a perfect guest, i can tell you. congresswoman omar is one of the first to call for impeachment. she joins me when we re back in 30 seconds. i wish i could shake your hand. granted. only pay for what you need. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty.
and i testified about the mueller report, congress was still using this process of bouncing back and forth five minutes a side between the republicans and the democrats. what we learned during the intelligence committee hearings was how effective the use of staff attorneys is in telling a cohesive narrative. these hearings, or at least this first day that maya and i have talked about that s more about the law, one would hope they would use that sort of a process again so that the american people can really understand the law that will control as congress moves forward. i would encourage them to use that approach. very interesting. process matters spoken by a lawyer. coming up, what happened to rudy giuliani? we have new details about the man at the heart of this bribery plot and a breakdown of what it could look like to put trump on trial, a formal judge and a senator that cast an impeachment vote on that. interesting stuff, we think.
office of governor effective immediately. losing the big job for bribery. for worse for him, he was convicted in criminal trial. 18 charges including bribery, attempted extortion, fraud, conspiracy and noticeably obstruction related charges like lying to the fbi. he got hit with a 14 year prison sentence. hard time because bribery is a serious felony. you can see him right here reporting to prison for the first time in denver in 2012. he remains there to this day. here is how he looked from a photograph in august. convicted of bribery plot he didn t fully execute is still slated to serve seven more years in prison because this is serious stuff. like altering stuff. lose your freedom type stuff. that s something to keep in mind as witnesses now detail how the official policy of the trump administration was yes, there s that term, quid pro quo bribery to get donald trump something personally valuable to him. some have testified about that
that everybody knows is what really makes this audaciousauda it is so interesting to see how president trump was sticking with the words quid pro quo when frankly the conversation has moved on to using the english words of extortion and bribery. why bribery? because that is specifically listed as one of the things as an impeachable offense. right. that s something we covered a lot and goes to the power of having that testimony by someone who is currently employed by the president. i don t know that that s fully sunk in. he s an insider like john dean. he knows what happened. but unlike some of the people in nixon who ultimately left the white house, he s still representing the president. so they re at odds over that core question because he s admitting to the bribery plot while the president of course continues to deny it now. he had also and his chief of staff as we showed previously
