our elections for me, jake. if americans want to make sure we maintain that through our elections, they need to pressure their senators. who knows what will happen in the house. i don t want to get ahead of anything we are doing, but the american people have a say and they need to put pressure on their elected leereds aboaders preserving and defending the constitution and our republican. that s truly what is at stake here. this probably will not come as a surprise to you, congresswoman, but one of your democratic colleagues, congressman jeff van drew of new jersey, a democrat that represents a district trump won by five or six points, he just came out and said he will vote against the articles of impeachment unless there is something new that he has not seen or heard before. that means impeachment would not be unanimous among democrats, although voting against impeachment ultimately will be bipartisan. well, that s true. it will be bipartisan if jeff
is a close? it shows the will of the american people. in washington dc they want people fighting for them like donald trump fighting for their jobs, fighting for bigger paychecks and what you have is democrats in congress fighting donald trump. they don t like it, they wanted to come to a stop and polls show that. rob: one of the president s greatest annoyances is his own party not sticking together. on this republicans did stick together and democrats broke apart a little bit. let s show you the two from district trump is popular into, jeff van drew from new jersey and colin peterson from minnesota voting with republicans going against the impeachment inquiry and jeff bezos sent a statement saying without bipartisan support i believe this inquiry will further divide the country tearing it apart at the scenes and it will fail in the senate. that doesn t bode well for nancy pelosi.
country to be 50% women it s great to celebrate the space bach walk but it s about time not to celebrate the things because they shouldn t be unusual. of course one of the astronauts said is best. jessica meir said get we hope we can provide inspiration to everyone, not just every woman who has a dream. thanks for joining us. anderson starts now. good evening, we begin with breaking news. more damaging testimony in the ukraine affair. another indication of how badly president trump s personal attorney wanted to obtain dirt on the president s political rivals. the news follows two weeks of other testimony that taken together lays out the parties parts and pieces of what is a wide ranging sustained intense i havive campaign to get a foreign government to do the president s personal political bidding in exchange for badly needed military assistance. and of course this comes at the end of a day of damage control after the president s own acting chief of staff conceded yesterday that, yes
favor from the u.s. government for a former ukrainian official, he wanted to give the official a visa and in exchange he wanted political dirt on democrats. this according to testimony under oath from career diplomat george kent. according to sources familiar with kent s testimony this week, the senior state department official told impeachment investigators that giuliani asked the state department and the white house to grant a visa to the former ukrainian official, the guy that joe biden pushed to have removed when biden was vice president. this comes as president trump is trying to sell an alternate reality as he goes to bat at least publicly for his embattled chief of staff mick mulvaney seeming to insist that mulvaney never up ended the request that the president withheld hundreds of millions in military aid in order to pressure ukraine to investigate his political opponents. just listen to the president. mr. president, do you want to clarify what mick mulvaney said
testimony about giuliani trying to get a visa in exchange for dirt on political democrats. i m not going to comment directly on testimony behind closed doors, but let me just say the picture painted by mr. giuliani by a number of witnesses and by what we know in the public is one that is very disturbing and i think giuliani in collusion with president trump is turning the oval office into a cesspool. giuliani s contacts in ukraine are with the shadiest of shady characters, shulkin, leschenko, and other oligarchs not committed to institutions and are corrupt figures in their own right and his association with
