Instead they say it lay us us out the procedure by which the investigations current wily underway are to move forward. The president and his allies called it a sham, comparing it to sovietstyle justice that is unfair to mr. Trump and not consistent with impeachment probes of the past. The president tweeted after the vote the greatest witch hunt in american history. Weve heard that once or twice before. Meantime, democrats continue taking depositions including the first from a person who was actually listening in on the phone call that put the whole impeachment probe in motion, Lieutenant Colonel alexander vinman. He said the transcript of that call released by the white house had some important edits in it. Republicans, however, say none of the edits were senate. The were significant. The person who could bring the most tension is former National Security adviser john bolton who exited the administration in september after repeated clashes with the president over foreign policy, includ
It shows, by the by, that the labor market is still strong the, consumers and wage earners are still strong. As i said, america is working. I think people are underestimating the underlying strength of this economy, and i want to also add this it is a middle class boom. This is a middle class boom. This is a blow outnumber, you know . Well see if the next one and the one after that are great, but theres no question this is an outstanding report well above expectations. Maria meanwhile, as expected the Federal Reserve cut Interest Rates for a third time this year by another 25 basis points. The First Reading of the u. S.

Doesnt like it much. The Editorial Board is laying into her for this aboutface. Perhaps she realizes the house process has looked like a partisan railroad job. Impeachment calling for the removal of an elected president isnt runofthe mill. It is about time nancy pelosi came forward and said she was going to have a formal impeachment inquiry.

Reporter President Trump dismissed todays vote on the resolution as more posturing by democrats. Ripping them in a radio appearance with the u. K. s nigel farage. President trump the democrats are desperate. They have nothing. Its the only way they can win the election because they cant win it the fair way. Reporter cooperation apparently is still not forthcoming. White house Officials Say the resolution does not insure due process for the president. Democrats insist the new guidelines allow the president and his council to his counsel to part
