we should just get over it. this is essentially what he was saying, that we need to get used to the idea of adrianna fran co president and get over it. so we will have to decide, given that the evidence of this misconduct is so clear and uncontested, are we prepared to just get over it? are we prepared to say that hence forth we must expect from this president and those who follow that there will be a certain amount of corruption in which the national security of the country will be compromised, in which the oath of the office will mean that much less, in which the belief in the rule of law in the united states will be that much less. is that what we re simply to get over or get used to. well, i for one don t think we should get over this. i don t think we should get used to this. i don t think that s what the founders of this country had in mind. indeed, i think that when they
given that the evidence of this misconduct is so clear and uncontested, are we prepared to just get over it? i for one don t think that we should get over this. i don t think that we should get used to this. i don t think that that is what the founders of this country had in mind. indeed i think that when they prescribed a remedy, this kind of conduct by a president of the united states putting his own personal and political interests above the interests of the american people was exactly why they prescribed a remedy as extraordinary as the remedy of impeachment. and the house intel report being described today by jonathan allen as a, quote, news bombshell because it also includes evidence we ve never seen before. call logs that show repeated and at times lengthy communications between rudy giuliani and phone numbers of the office of management and budget. that was the agency involved in holding up military aid. evidence summed up by ari melber, quote, the calls are coming from are i
complete the report? will it be released by the time congress returns in early december, for example? you know, we ll take the time that s necessary and we re at work on compiling that report right now, but again, we have continued to learn more information every day. and i think that s going to continue. so we may have to file addendums to that report. we may have other depositions and hearings to do, but because the evidence is already overwhelming and uncontested, we want to provide that to the judiciary committee, to make sure that we protect the country in the election that s yet to come. do you think it s possible that there will be other parts of the articles of impeachment that do not have to deal with ukraine? i know that this is let me put it a different way. if it were up to you, and i guess again, it s up to chairman nadler and the judiciary committee, but if it were up to you, would the articles of impeachment, should they be written, focus only on ukraine? well,

and this is a very live issue. whether matt whitaker right now is back channeling information about the investigation to trump. how we ll find out about it, if that s happening, who will collect evidence of that, who will prosecute it, if it is proven, which is made all the more complicated, all the more dire and urgent by the prospect that matt whitaker may not just be providing intelligence to the white house, he may be actively throttling the investigation secretly right now from inside the justice department, and how would we know about that? on top of that, within the last 24 hours, we have evidence that the president definitely, this is confirmed, uncontested, that he has another ongoing source of information from inside the mueller investigation, namely his former campaign chairman, paul manafort. this revelation that his former campaign chairman, who is
