Hour. Ali velshi is here. That would be wild if there wasnt a mention of emoluments in the konsz constitution. Even without it. If you look at the way business operates, the way we operate, the way politics operates, you protect against seeming like seeming like. For your own pocket. Even if the impression is there you protect against that. This was the danger when people didnt take the emoluments clause seriously when we discussed it. It becomes more and more on normal. We started discussing it the way he was inaugurated, talking about the trump d. C. Hotel and it has been a consistent issue ever few months since then. New stories arise, does donald trump, is he working for himself, is he working for the American Public, his golf course in scotland the blind trust thats not blind.

To investigate what happened in the past and apply its own laws. No one in the new team had anything to do with anything that may have happened in 2016. They were making Television Shows at the time. Iral i also said it is credible to me that he would have been influenced by financial or personal motives in carrying out duties as Vice President. A different issue is whether some individual ukrainians may have attempted to influence the 2016 election or thought they could buy influence. That is at least plausible given ukraines reputation for corruption. The accusation that he acted independently did not seem credible to me. I connected mayor giuliani and the aide by text lantand later t i phone. They met in person on august 2, 2019. In conversations with me following that meeting which i did not attend, mr. Giuliani said that he had stressed the importance of ukraine conducting investigations into what happened in the past and mr. Yermoc stressed, he said it is their position to conduc
Anybody else. Im going to read from the transcript here. Why didnt you go to your direct report, mr. Morrison, your response, because mr. Eisenberg had told me to take my concerns to him. And then i asked you, did mr. Eisenberg tell you not to report, to go around mr. Morrison . And you said, actually, he did say that, i shouldnt talk to any other people. Is that right . Yes, but theres a whole theres a period of time in there between when i spoke to him and when he circled back around. It wasnt that long a period of time, but it was enough time for me to enough time for you to go to talk to someone who you wont tell us who it is, right . Ive been instructed not to, representative jordan. Heres what im getting. The lawyer told you not talk to any other people, and you interpret that as not talking to your boss, but you talk to your brother, you talk to the lawyers, you talk to scare keec kent and talk to the one guy schiff wont let us tell you who it is. Representative jordan, i did my
Him through this committee for eight months. So i think following proceed sure is something that you have to look at because your idea is not really point of order. The time has expired. If he wishes. He doesnt wish. Good morning, mr mr. Lewandowski. Im questioning you right now. Thank you. The president asked you who had no role at all in the white house to deliver that message to Attorney General sessions. The president could have just picked up the phone himself at any time and called the Attorney General. The president also had a full staff of executive employees right down the hall. So this made me wonder. The president thought what he was doing was legal, why didnt he just pick up the phone and
call Attorney General sessions, or why not ask any member of his staff who worked right down the hall to deliver a message . It is clear to me that the reason he went to you, mr. Lewandowski, is because everyone said no. So i want to ask you about that. Two days before meeting you, the pre
Concerning the allegations, i stressed that no one in the new team governing ukraine had anything to do with anything that may have happened in 2016. They were making Television Shows at the time. I also said that it is not credible to me that former Vice President biden would have been influenced in any way by financial or personal motives in carrying out his duties as Vice President. A different issue is whether some individual ukrainians may have attempted to influence the 2016 election or thought they would buy influence. That is at least plausible given ukraines reputation for corruption. But the accusation that Vice President biden acted inappropriately did not seem at all credible to me. After that meeting, i connected mayor giuliani and mr. Yermak by text and later by phone. They met in person on august 2nd, 2019. In conversations with me following that meeting, which i
did not attend, mr. Giuliani said that he had stressed the importance of ukraine conducting investigations in
