Marie yovanovich and former Senior Advisor to mike pompeii so hes transcripts were released. But adam schiff misread the transcripts if i thought they supported his outrageous claims against President Trump. They in fact do not. Their testimony bolsters and vindicates the president. In short, summations of those depositions. The dimms tried to point both yarn vich and mckinley scared of and concerned about President Trump. Within that 317 pages of testimonies of the ambassador it was revealed she was aware of President Trumps scepticism about ukraine. Steve caster asked if she was aware of the president s deeprooted scepticism about ukraines business environment. She answers yes. And is then asked what she knew. She responds with that he, i mean he shared that concern directly with president poroshenko in their first meeting in the oval office. In a second damning excerpt. She said the Trump Administration policy stored ukraine has been stronger than that under the obama administration. She goes on to say President Trumps decision to provide lethal weapons to ukraine made americas policy toward ukraine stronger. A topic President Trump recently brought up during a meeting . New york. I gave you antitank busters that frankly president obama was giving you pillows and sheets. I gave you antitank busters. A lot of people didnt want to do it, but i did it. Lou yovanovich suggests if the meddling in the elections were to be true, it would upset bipartisan support for sue crane. She says if ukraine were meddling in our elections, i think it support you have provided to ukraine over the last almost 30 years, i dont know about that. Mckinley testimony shows he wasnt aware of the july 25 telephone call between President Trump and zelensky until it was publicly reported. It also show he had no knowledge of the ambassador firing. And he said every president has the right to remove an ambassador they dont have confidence in, end quote. There is nothing about aquid pro quo or obstruction of justice. It makes you wonder what adam schiff and the radical dimms were thinking when they released the scripts. You have s. Secretary of state mike pompeo. Mr. Secretary, great to see you, thanks for being with us. I would like to begin if i may with the Intelligence Committee hearings and its chair adam schiff. Do you believe these hearing are legitimate, appropriate . I from the beginning have been unhappy because officers at the state department have had to testify without counsel, without ability to prepare. The risk is that classified information would leak out or be spilled in a way the state department couldnt be overseen. I regret that. I wish they were open and fair and a process that reflected what the American People deserve. Lou the administration having to contend with external forces running into whatever these Intelligence Committee hearings represent. It has to be a difficult distraction. Today iran announcing that it is rubbing twice as many sentry fiewngs as would have been permitted under the 2015 agreement, and they continue, according to your departments report, to fund terrorism, hezbollah, hamas, the palestinianislammist jihad. Are sanctions really working . This is precisely what President Trump confronted when he became president. We had an agreement that allowed iran to have all the money it needed. They were engaged tonight during the jcpoa. Our efforts have been named at three pieces of the puzzle including the economics sanctions campaign. Hezbollah and the she a militias have fewer resources. We have on been at this fullthroated since may of this year. Are we having a real impact . We need to continue to press, and we need the world to recognize iran is the worlds number one state sponsor of terror. Lou are they fulfilling their responsibility to enforce these sanctions . We have had a different view than the europeans. But i think recently the europeans have come to see the iranians are moving in the wrong direction. I think the europeans will come to see this for what it is, a regime thats intent on trying to extort money from the west. I hope they will join us in our campaign. Lou let me touch about the announcement that as the president and you have announced, the United States withdrawing from the paris climate agreement. And as is required given the oneyear notice making it formal the United States will be exiting. Is that going to plan . It is. The president made a decision we would leave the Paris Climate Accord for a separate reason. It is american jobs that would be lost. Today was the first day we could file the document we did today and 12 months on well draw formally. Lou lets turn to china. You made an important speech last week. If we may, lets put up the line i think is fundamental here. You said its no longer realistic to ignore the fundamental difference between our two systems. Communist, and the United States, a free nation. Its extraordinary that we are still undergoing Cyber Attacks. They continue to steal intellectual property. The list goes on. You know it better than anyone. Its stunning stuff, as we try to create a meaningful, albeit reduced scope trade agreement. Yeah. Lou, i think thats right. Thanks for the kind word on the remarks. I thought they were important. I thought we needed to make sure the world understands the risks and the ramifications that we all just let go for too long. President trump has recognized this threat and we are taking it head on. I hope there is a good phase one deal. And where we can find places to cooperate we should. But you listed just a handful. Whats taking place, or the cyber secure attacks. Those are serious risks and President Trump takes them seriously. We need the world to join us in that. Lou mr. Secretary, we thank you very much for your type. Secretary mike pompeo. An update on the huawei rsh chief financial for. She was arrested last year for proud c c c c she wanted to move someplace warm. But he wanted snow for the holidays. So we built a snow globe. Ill get that later. Dylan but the one thing we could both agree on was getting geico to help with homeowners insurance. What . Switching and saving was really easy i love you what . Sweetie hands off the glass. Ugh call geico and see how easy saving on homeowners and condo insurance can be. I love her i am royalty of racing, i am alfa romeo. President trump we are looking at arms control right now. We are dealing with china and russia. I think they would like to do it is snrition when we are talking about nuclear weapons. But we are look at a major arms control agreement with russia and china and maybe somebody else. Lou the president talking about a possible arms deal in the future with russia and china. Commerce secretary wilbur ross says President Trump and president xi jinping are considering a number of new sites to sign the socalled phase one of the prospective trade agreement including alaska, hawaii or even china. According to chinas foreign ministry. President s trump and xi have been in contact through the the negotiation process. The u. S. Government warned that huawei represents a Security Threat to a number of countries, including our allies. Joining to us talk about all of this, dr. Michael pillsbury, director for the center of strategy at hudson institute. This business of the president and and president xu talking d president xi talking through the this process isnt surprising to me. They are in constant contact, at least that was the way it was portrayed. Fake news or not. The president said hes in telephone contact with xi jinping. Friends of mine at the white house estimate its once a month. I think the spokesman for the Chinese Foreign ministry phrased it to include deputies. I would expect from what the chinese strategy for negotiations has been with our country and others. The last few weeks and the last few days is when the most horse trading as we would say gets done. They want to do the deal at the last point. Which is why i think wilbur ross said in bangkok today, and i adream with him. This deal is getting very, very complicated. Lou is that another way of saying its just a bit raising greater doubts about the success of signing something . No, its about the text and what will be included. There needs to be some kind of enforcement mechanism for phase one or the whole thing is just a disaster. Pushing too hard would cause them to renege again and back out of the talks. Lou the greater surprise would be if they actually kept their word, it would not, based on previous behavior . Thats not diplomatic, lou. Lou i apologize, thats one of the reasons i do this and not that. One of the reasons anyway. Representative lighthizer made it clear hes focused on enforcement of any deal. Does it seem to you that we are there . Not yet. I try to be optimistic. I think the president is a master negotiator. But until he turns his attention to the final phase. We are not going to know if hes got the office in beijing opened up thats going to be where complaints are heard. We are not going to know if what ambassador lighthizer discussed a year ago will be set up. The Appeals Court process by which the chinese are punished, we say when, not if. I have a hunch its not there yet. As we watch the Cyber Attacks continue, the theft intellectual property, as there is a discussion about whether the chinese want the president to lift the tariffs. The question becomes, do these tariffs remain . Do the tariffs set to go on september 15, do they go into effect . The president has more than once extolled the virtues of these tariffs. I think hes exactly right, frankly. Its a main source of leverage. There are 29 Chinese Companies on the black list and the pressure seems to work. Lou Huawei Wilbur Ross made it sounds like they are coming off of it. They will still be on the list is what he said, but they will have some waivers where American Companies can sell chips to them that are in our interest to sell. But huawei, i think they stay on the list forever. Lou as you and wilbur ross talked about, its complicated when you can have a national Security Threat that only Certain Companies can do business with. I think the president is focused on the leverage he has. Our own Economic Growth is part of our leverage. The president keeps mentioning how many trillions more our gdp is now than several years ago. The entities list is another one. There is a third, which is the effort to slow down the chinese closing on us. They have been growing three times faster than us the last few years. They are ahead in a lot of the technological areas. The president s goal is china is not going to surpass america, at least not on his watch. Lou we would love for you to talk about the metrics of the relationship as well. The growth you are describing is deeply concerning at the very least. I would just love to have you back to discuss that some detail, if you have time. The politburo in china has been focusing on new technologies they want to use to surpass america, block chains. And they are surfacing us already in some of these areas. Lou well take up that danger with dr. Michael pillsbury in the immediate to the near future. We are coming right back. Stay with us. I get it all the time. Have you lost weight . Of course i have ever since i started renting from national. Because national lets me lose the wait at the counter. And choose any car in the aisle. And i dont wait when i return, thanks to drop go. At national, i can lose the wait. And keep it off. Looking good, patrick. I know. vo go national. Go like a pro. Lou the Left Wing National Media revealing the difficulties rrp strategy behind the release of selective testimony. Jim been it tweeted House Democrats are choreographing the releases of the testimonies so when amplified by media reports we together the case against President Trump. I cant imagine a clearer statement of acting in concert between the media and the radical dimms. And the ambassador to the European UnionGordon Sondland reversed his testimony with a threepage written statement. And in it he claims his memory regarding military aid being withheld from ukraine has been miraculous live refreshed. Imagine an ambassador who didnt have his wits about him on the day of the hearing on this issue. After reading on thered testimony of he reversed himself and is contradicting himself. Sondland doesnt directly tie the president to any other effort to use aid as slench. Sondland even describing a conversation on whether the white house was withholding military aid into the bides. The president said i want nothing, i want no quid pro quo. I want president zelensky to do the right thing, that is, fight corruption. Joining us is stephanie grisham. Your reaction to this testimony that is being released as if we didnt know that, being released and choreographed with the national media. No surprises there obviously. But the transcripts released today show what the president has been saying all along, that he did nothing wrong and there was no quid pro quo. Volker even said hes just presuming the aid was linked to something and admitted he didnt know yes was presuming it. These transcripts are good for the president. Showing this entire time hes been telling the truth. Its why the white house released the transcripts in the first place. Its no surprise to me its taken this long to come out. Instead of fund our military or passing a budget or passion usmca. This is what the democrats have been doing and its clearly backfiring on them. Lou i would think they would at least pause to rise from their seats and applaud the president for all he achieved in three years. They never produced a president who has done as much as he. Dont you think they should hip hip hooray to acknowledge his accomplishments . The recordbreaking crowds at all of his events are where the hip hip hoorays are coming from. The dems are doing that because he gets so much done and they know he will win in 2020. This is backfiring on them. We look forward to the next few weeks and we look forward to getting back to work on behalf of this country. Lou the great thing is the president never leaves that occupation. He does so much, sometimes i think because of the consternation and ignorant opposition of the dimms. Its frankly frustrating and maddening to watch these rad california dimm fools in the Intelligence Committee carry out their charade. Last night in kentucky, to see mcconnell and rand paul standing there with him, governor babin. Thats unity and something we are beginning to see more of. This has to drive the left, the dimms nuts. I think this is what he has been doing since before he took office. This is how he thrives. You tell him hes not going to win, hes going to win. Here is a man who has never been in Public Office before who went up against 16 politicians, won the presidency, is doing more than any other president , has gone the results for two years. Its driving him crazy. You would think they would learn. But the more you pushback on him the harder he will fight. And they will have to deal with him for the next four years. Lou as you were taking us back down memory lane to 2016 campaign. Those moments were sweet indeed. The new evidence that an attorney for the socalled whistleblower is, well, something of a partisan hack is the way some would put it. Well have much more after this quick break. Do you recall, not long ago we would walk on the sidewalk all around the wind blows we would only hold on to let go blow a kiss into the sun we need someone to lean on blow a kiss into the sun we needed somebody to lean on all we need is someone to lean on peyton, what abrad, welcome to peytonville.

Lou two former twitter employees accused of spying on prominent opponents of the Saudi Arabian government. Federal prosecutors save the two men worked with the saudi government middleman to get personal information on thousands of personal accounts of dissenters including a close ally of jamal khashoggi. Newly uncovered tweets show the socalled whistleblowers attorney mark zaid is nothing more than a never trumper partisan. He retweeted news about sally yates getting fired, captioning his tweet with coup has started. Impeachment will follow ultimately. There is even one about how cnn will help bring down the president. Zaid said i predict cnn will play a key role in President Trump not finishing out his full term as president. There seems to be confusion about when well see the Inspector GeneralMichael Horowitz report on fisa abuse. Sources tell the Washington Post the report will be out by thanksgiving. But another anonymous source says a number of complicated issues makes that unlikely. Do you believe the fisa abuse report will be released before or after thanksgiving . I think we a
