Chad pergram is live on capitol hill with more. Chad . Reporter well the big debate right now what would a senate trial look like . The Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer sent a letter to Mitch Mcconnell the majority leader, laying out a timetable, in january, on the 6th, hearing from impeachment manage earns prosecutors, and managers on the ninth. Calling for specific witnesses. Among others he called for four total. He wants acting white hughes chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and former National Security advisor john bolton. Unclear if they cut a deal on this. This is what Chuck Schumer wants. Listen. I havent seen a single good argument about why these witnesses shouldnt testify, or these documents be produced, unless the president has something to hide and his supporters want that information hidden. Reporter in 1999 the key to the senate trial with president clinton was that the minority leader and the majority leader, tom daschle, trent lott, they got together and forged a deal. They werent going to have witnesses on the senate floor. Trent lott i spoke with him recently. He indicate having witnesses testify on the senate floor during an impeachment trial is risky. If they dont do this in the right way, if they have witnesses on the floor, i think it takes on a context that could be, could be harmful. It is bad enough. If this turns into an absolute mudslinging process, it will make things even worse. Reporter this is what schumer said about that he said we dont even know the evidence that these witnesses would present. It may be exculpatory, it may be incriminating. I followed up asking about the 1999 model with president clinton. This is what schumer said. 1999 was a different case. There were reasons we did not want Monica Lewinsky to testify. Tomorrow morning, 11 00 they go to the House Rules Committee to set up parameters of debate in the house. They wont actually debate the articles of impeachment on house floor until wednesday. You have to go to the rules Committee First to get a rule, determines what the Playing Field will look like. Jim mcgovern of massachusetts is the chair of the rules committee. He indicated to me today he didnt know how long the debate would last. He thought they would wrap up, vote on articles of impeachment on wednesday reasoning. It would not drift into thursday. The question on capitol hill how Many Democrats might vote no. We think its a handful. President trump started to tweet democrats from vulnerable districts. He says democrats will be absolutely decimated in their districts because of the impeachment hoax. Today a bunch of freshman democrats who flipped districts from red to blue, came out in flavor of impeachment among them, Elissa Slotkin of michigan, jason crow of colorado and ben mcadams of utah. Liz the house is scheduled to got on christmas recess on friday. With a lot to get done. House judiciary chairman, jerry nadler says the president is committing crimes against the constitution. Jody hice of georgia. Great to see you. Your reaction what jerry nadler is saying . That is absolute absurdity. We had ongoing evidence supporting the president. The fact he has not committed any crimes yet the democrats continue to cry wolf on this issue and it is just another attempt that the democrats are trying to take, that they have been doing ever since the president was inaugurated. They are just trying to get rid of him. Theyre trying to disenfranchise votes of 63 million americans. They will stop at no links to try to accomplish that. Liz New York Times conservative columnist david brooks tells pbs, quote, that the articles of impeachment are vague. To him they seem amorphous, not concrete abuses of power, that he can see that are criminal that meet the level of criminality threshold. Impeachment is underwater with voters. Real clear politics average of seven major polls look at that, a little over 47 oppose. A little over 46 support. So, you know, democrats have talked so authoritatively that the facts are there, that the facts are uncontested. Watch House Speaker nancy pelosi doing just that. Quid pro quo, bribery, bribery, that is in the constitution, attached to the impeachment proceedings. You yourself accused him of bribery. Why did you decide not to make bribery one of the articles of impeachment. I myself am not a lawyer. Sometimes i act like one. Not as often as i act as a doctor. I Practice Medicine on the side without benefit of diploma too. Liz correct me if im wrong, the witnesses that the democrats brought forward, did any of them raise their hands yes, we have evidence of bribery . That is the whole problem. In fact we have i believe like 3,000 pages of testimony, only one time did the word bribery come up and that was in reference to joe biden of the democrats have been all over the map with this. It was quid pro quo. It was bribery. It was treason. It was extortion. Now they come up with articles that are extremely vague as you mentioned earlier, that really dont specify anything that the president has done. And frankly theyre in trouble with this. Some democrats beginning to jump ship. As you referenced we have polls that are against this the people of america are seeing this for what it is. They are seeing this as a total sham, witchhunt against the president. I believe the democrats will pay heavily for. We know that the democrats are pouring millions of dollars into vulnerable politicians districts. Republicans are pouring millions of dollars as well. We have reports coming in it looks like house impeachment will happen. Were hearing 20 democrats in districts trump won are expected to vote for it. What are you hearing . Were hearing similar type things. There is no question they are going to proceed with this they have too much invested in it not to, i think it is virtually impossible for nancy pelosi to back step at this point. You know, what they are doing is attempting to appeal to their radical leftwing socialist base. And as a result, all year long, it has been about things like impeachment. It has been about socialist policies like green new deal. They have shown themselves absolutely incapable of governing. And were hearing similar things. They are going to proceed with this. I dont know how Many Democrats are going to stand with, with pelosi, how many are going to oppose impeachment. That is yet to be seen but theyre definitely going to move forward wit. I believe they will pay for it. Liz congressman hice, hope we see you soon. Looking forward. Liz markets rising for a fourth straight day. President trump, here he is, touting the economy. Watch this. Jobs numbers are incredible, best in 51 years. And i think soon well be able to say historic if we go a little bit lower, well say, in the history of our country the best job numbers. Liz were also tracking the news that boeing will announce that it is suspending, it did announce it is suspending the production of the 737 max jetliner. That is set to happen in january.

Here is the next question, will democrats face voter rage over impeachment when they go home for this friday on christmas recess .

Liz welcome back. There is growing trouble with what democrats now demand in the nafta 2. 0 trade deal. Are these poison pills that we warned you about that could ruin the deal . We warned you about this months ago. Mexico balking at what democrats want. Edward lawrence has the latest from washington. Edward . Reporter liz, confusion in mexico over usmca threatens to cause tensions over the trade deal. Some mexico senators concerned usmca as ratified would allow u. S. To pick up five inspectors, go into mexican factories to make sure theyre comply ant with trade regulations. Mexicos top trade negotiator insisted that was not the case and flew to the washington to make sure his interpretation held. In a letter released this afternoon by u. S. Trade representative Robert Lighthizer said up to five attaches are there for technical assistance, not inspections, something undersecretary emphatically reiterated. Anything you ask, reduces the coverage of the negative. There will not be labor inspectors. Reporter mexico already ratified usmca of the house takes the first steps tomorrow in the ways and means committee, setting up ratification vote for the full house on thursday. White house economic advisors feeling good. Im very optimistic it will pass in the house and it will pass in the senate because i think most people understand on balance, more than on balance, this is a progrowth deal that is going to really help the American Economy and the american workforce. Reporter the senate expected to take up ratification after the impeachment trial in january or early february. Then canada, will have to ratify usmca. Back to you. Liz edward lawrence, thank you so much. Okay, were going to dig into the trade deal, china trade deal later in the show with michael pillsbury. He will be on with us in a few moments. Next case, north korea threatening to send, quote a Christmas Gift to the United States as the dedenuclearization deadline for a deal, it is about to expire. Here is President Trump threatening, basically responding to this threat. Watch this. Were watching it. Well see. I would be disappointed if something would be in the works and if it is, well take care of it but well see. Were watching it very closely. Were watching north korea. Were watching many places actually very closely but north korea were watching very closely. Liz lets bring in my next guest, retired fourstar general, fox news senior strategic analyst, general jack keane. Great to see you, general. Good to see you, liz. Liz reports are coming in we have a top u. S. Diplomat rejecting north koreas hostile deadline talks. Reports are saying were not bowing to pongyang. What exactly would that Christmas Gift from north korea be . We can only speculate but i mean north korea threatening is something that has been a pattern of theirs for decades. Clearly theyre very frustrated because, remember, liz, at the hanoi summit, they wanted complete sanction relief from the United States entirely. They were going to give us hardly anything in return. Not a single missile, not a single Nuclear Weapon would be destroyed and President Trump did exactly right thing and walked out of there. So the sanctions now, all these months later, have greater impact. That, theyre playing this hand as leverage to try to get us to reduce sanctions. Now what could they do to get our attention . I dont think it would be shortrange other mediumrange rockets which is what they have been firing for the last six months. If they really wanted to do something that will create a crisis, then that will be longrange Ballistic Missiles or a nuclear test. I doubt the nuclear test. But nonetheless, any one of those, i think would forfeit the peace negotiation progress that President Trump and kim jongun have established with the two summits and one impromptu meeting in june. I think it would put us back likely in the crisis again, where we begin to talk about military options back on the table. Well see whether this is just rhetoric or there is something substantive here that will change the nature of the relationship to date. Liz lets move over to europe and nato. Nato chief stoltenberg said nato is now, quote, facing its most complex security environment in history, rising tensions between member countries. Threats from russia, terrorism from china. I want to point out that the eurozone is facing its worst Economic Growth in about seven years. Really severe flatlining problem there, almost tipping into recession. Your reaction to all of that . Well, i think there is a point to be made here. The Global Security situation has clearly worsened with the competition with russia and china and irans regional objectives which actually impact on europe as well in terms of terrorism and the spread of radical islam despite everyones best efforts to push back on it. Those are threats that they are facing but at the same time they have significantly weakened Political Leadership in many of the european countries. These social democracies, that have been in existence now have proven to be failed systems in terms of providing for their people, strengthening their economy, you note, the economy is in serious problems. The, problems that they have with unions and defined worker benefit programs are causing significant problems to these governments because the weight of all of that on the government does not permit, the weight of that on the private sector does not permit the kind of growth you would see that is taking place in the United States for example. So, yes, i agree with him. These are serious challenges, internally to europe and also externally. At the same time you have britain who wants out of the European Union. And that also is reverberating throughout the European Union in terms of other countries payment acts with he will. Liz whether other countries will defect. Were not hearing that yet. General jack keane, youre terrific. Love your insights. Come back soon. Okay. That is general jack keane. Up next, republican devin nunes, the debate is this, is devin nunes right to say adam schiff cannot be trusted with congressional oversight duties. Here is the debate, adam schiff claiming he was quote, unaware of fbi abuses of fisa court when adam schiff who last year led the charge in attacking devin nunes when devin nunes spelled out the problem in his memos, the same problem that the doj watchdog found. That debate coming up. Tment opportunities firsthand. Like a biotech firm that engineers a patients own cells to fight cancer. This is strategic investing.
