Power to determine its own rules. When president nixon during the time he was going to be impeached ruling how that proceeding would go forward. When the Clinton Impeachment was brought forward, there was a unanimous consent request to govern how we conducted ourselves and im not sure how likely it would be that we would get a unanimous consent request. Id like to ask unanimous consent without objection to enter into the record a letter that was sent to the chairman of the Judiciary Committee signed by 70 republican members including the republican leader every parliamentary tool available to us and committee on the house floor, to highlight your inaction translated means to try to delay them to make this process as impossible as it can be made. Im not sure in light of this letter that we could get a unanimous consent request and these seedings and break for a cup of coffee, never mind, i just want to stay for the record because i think its important that i think the house has engaged
people coming forward and testifying about the misconduct of the president than the president trying to block everybody else from coming forward to testify in the administration? we requested several documents and testimony from this administration and what have they done in response? nothing. it s important for people to understand this for the record. request for documents from the state department, ignored. request for documents from the department of defense, ignored. request for documents from the vice president, ignored. request for documents from giuliani associate lev parnas, ignored. request for documents from giuliani associate ignored. a request from documents from the white house, ignored. request for documents for rudy giuliani the president s lawyer, ignored. request from national security advisor john bolton, ignored. request for the testimony of white house chief of staff mick mulvaney, ignored. here s a list of all of the
in the fantasy land of the pelosi plotters it probably means something big. in the real world if the secretary of state happens to be participating in a phone call with a foreign president, that strikes me as pretty normal. i suspect had secretary pompeo heard something he thought was inappropriate in that conversation he would have turned to the president and said so. bill: mike emanuel leads our coverage on the hill this hour where there is a little bit of action. good morning. let s start there. house democrats subpoenaeded rudy giuliani. he wrote i have received a subpoena signed only by democrat chairs who have pre-judged this case. it raises significant issues concerning legitimacy and attorney/client and other privileges. it will be given appropriate consideration. the house intelligence democrat fired back at giuliani. we ll have to pursue
made that specific decision on this particular call. again, i think it is irrelevant that it was moved to that. the president made the decision to release it. he wants to be transparent in the process. i think the only place we have secrecy and clouds is under the bidens and what happened when vice president was in office. sandra: rudy giuliani the president s personal attorney, someone you have come to know as well has been subpoenaed and asked to turn over documents by a given date in october. how do you expect that to proceed, sarah? you know, i have a good working relationship with him. he was not in the administration at any point while i was there. i think that s a decision he will have to make personally and i m sure he ll work with the white house to determine what the appropriate next steps are he should take. bill: come back soon, okay? we have a million questions. welcome to the fox family. thank you for taking time out today. appreciate it. sandra: thank you. bill
different remedies potentially including contempt as well as other potential avenues but i have to say that rudy giuliani when he talks about attorney/client privilege doesn t mind breaking attorney/client privilege whenever he talks about his conversation with the president especially about ukraine. president trump would like to know the whistleblower s identity. democrats say it s deeply disturbing and using language about spies and treason and what we used to do in the old days troubling. i have to believe that and i do believe that the united states congress, the leaders of the united states congress, will do everything that is necessary to support and protect the whistleblower. meanwhile if house democrats impeach president trump majority leader mitch mcconnell says he cannot ignore it. the senate impeachment rules
