React to all of this dire political theater by moving to new record heights, the house of representatives in the midst of it all, all the drama also passed President Trumps usmca, the new trade agreement with canada and mexico. 1. 3 trillion worth in a matter of fact, in the midst of all the political turmoil the radical dems aversion for more than three years, President Trump succeeded in delivering another Major Campaign promise. Continuing to balance and make reciprocal u. S. Trade in with House Speaker pelosi decision to delay delivery delivery and with the house now adjourned for the holiday, there will not be any action until early january. The president maintaining that the dems entire process is a hoax, set up and the republicans are now winning because of hello sees outright default. For more we turn to chief White House Correspondent john roberts. Reporter thank you very much. Its a great honor. In the oval office welcoming former democratic congressman Jeff Van Drew to the congressman party he insisted the impact of last nights vote to impeach him is minimal. It does not feel like impeachment you know why its a phony deal and they cheapen the word impeachment, its an ugly word but they cheapen the word impeachment. Article two is adopted. The president took aim at House Speaker nancy pelosi for holding back on sending the articles of impeachment to the senate. Their playing games and they dont want to put in articles and ridiculous phony articles and i think theyre not allowed to do that. On capitol hill democrats tried to move past impeachment brokvoting to approve the usmcaa margin of 385 41. Nancy pelosi taking credit for the new trade deal. Of course will take credit because what he proposed did not fill the bill of what he described. At last Nights Campaign rally, President Trump said he did not care who took the credit as long as it got past. Whatever it takes. White house staffer said it was laughable that pelosi would claim the deal as her own. Its been sitting on her desk for a year. President trump is taking the heat for one moment at the battle creek rally when he criticized Michigan DemocraticDebbie Dingell and mocked her late husband john asked about it several times in the oval office, he simply ignored the question. Lou thank you very much. Earlier tonight on capitol hill, Senate Majority leader mcconnell declared the senate is at an impasse on how to proceed with setting rules for any future trial of the president and mcconnell blasted speaker closely for not sending over her articles of annoyance and hinting there may not be a senate trial of any kind at all. Some House Democrats implied their withholding articles. Or some kind of leverage, i admit, im not sure what leverage there is in refraining from sending us something we do not want. Meanwhile other House Democrats seem to be suggesting they prefer never to transmit the articles. Fine with me. Lou fine with him. Joining us tonight litigator formal federal prosecutor, independent counsel for the whitewater investigation, robert ray, first of all, the majority leader has a sense of humor that is been submerged for some time, i love the idea that he could not proceed with the advantage would be not sending over something he did not want. On the partisan impeachment front if its turn for the surreal and the other half, the country is in great hands and things are going really well its a good dual screen. Lou it is. And in fact as we pull back with the camera, what is revealed is a country in better shape than it has been in decades. Workingmen and when women in this country and the beneficiaries of the president who is doing exactly what he said he would do is restore prosperity for all americans. The president is evaluated in the eyes of history of whether or not they did and accomplished what they said they would do when they ran for office. This president is doing something for all of the future president s. He sent forward a work schedule that will change their lives because they are going to be judged against what hes been able to accomplish. Is also said something important. Lou he says something important all the time. An important marker that this should never be allowed to happen to another president again. Lou i dont know if it will order it wont but i do know that i happen to the best president it could possibly of occurred because this president has a strength and the courage, the moxie, what ever you want to call it to deal with it. He is setting the standard and hes unusual and i dont know anyone else that could have done them it is that straightforward. Lets turn to the nonsense of pelosi, we have a lot of people who could emulate her readily across the country. I think she needs to stop playing games. On the one hand i dont know if theres a requirement that the articles of impeachment are put in a box and wrapped in paper and delivered to the United States senate. The house action, they are done, the over with so when it finally gets there, my view is senator mcconnell says you dont send a startlearticles theres nothings to do, on the other hand if the house is taken in action, i dont know what the democrats expect, there is not. Lou they had a star chamber for three months, its the same nonsense. I dont have any idea what this means. Lou mcconnell is making it clear that hes not playing games and there will be a date and an hour in which he will no i think that is right, we know when that is in january and whoever shows up shows up. If the democrats choose not to show up to bat. Lou i like what the president said, it looks like we won by default because shes afraid to send over the articles. She does not have the ability or power, she is a speaker of the house but she does not have the ability or power to take to the United States senate what it will do. Lou i want to play something that the president said in battle creek michigan it doesnt feel like being impeached. It does not feel like were being impeached. [laughter] the country is doing better than ever before and we did nothing wrong. We did nothing wrong and we have tremendous support in the Republican Party like we have never had before, nobody has ever had this kind of support. Lou it does not feel like were being impeached. He is right, doug collins was saying that as well. Lou right there with the president on this. I like solidarity. The presence of the doesnt feel like it because its a farce. That is a national leftwing media that are the puppets of the Democratic Party and particularly the radical dems, they are carrying off an absolute fraud against the American People, the national leftwing media are acting as if this is really serious, the theatrics and bony nonsense. In legal terms i get weather here. Lou because youre a smart guy. I also think so but thats always something to debate. The bar has been set too low, making the argument for weeks that the democrats walk right into this by not having articles of impeachment that charged a crime, they fail to do that and when it finally gets to the senate i believe a wellfounded motion to dismiss should be granted by majority of the United States senate and we need to get rid of this and move on in the best interest of the country. Lou we are here because this party decided along with the deep state, the permanent Administrative State and bureaucracy they will overthrow our president the Republican Party is united to see that will not happen. Lou by the way that is a major newsbreak and its wonderful to see. Good to see you. Up next, china is fighting back against americas huawei. Poses agreed National Security threat, does it or does it not. What are the National Security inflammations of a trade deal of balance reciprocal trade deal with china.

Sober up to 17. The house today past President Trumps historic 1. 3 trillion usmc trade deal with canada and mexico, 385 41 in the bill heads to the senate but the Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell says they will not be about until after late january. A reminder to listen to my report three times a day coast to coast on the salem radio network. House minority leader Kevin Mccarthy condemning the radical left for their partisan ugly boat last night and mccarthy mocking Speaker Pelosi for not sending those articles often impeachment to the senate. Now we have a known speaker of the house that is so embarrassed that she admits the failure that she will not send it to the senate. So embarrassed that i watched in her press conference she would not take your questions. That is not a good legacy to have. Lou joining us tonight byron york, fox business contributor, good to have you with us. Lets start would not sending the articles of impeachment that she so desired so many months ago, what is going on . It seems a crazy idea, the house just passed these two articles of impeachment and the democrats are going to take them hostage and tried to pressure republicans to hold the trial that they dont want to hold anyway on house terms. It is really odd this started and operable by lawrence tribe and the liberal professor who suggested that. And apparently just caught on, i believe it is on the 16th so this came up really fast. Lou and no one seems to understand what advantages gain, what the purposes, may be a sequel to the oped by lawrence tribe who is looking more like us and our kissed rather than leftist. Remember also the trump russia affair, the reporting of that. Lou i have to interrupt, im trying to understand what was the trump russia affair, i thought that was disproved and he was exonerated. During whole trump russia investigation all the coverage was predicated on this idea that there is really big news out there, we dont know about it yet but theres bombshells out there waiting to be said discovery. A partly what is going on, some quarters of the Democratic House there are people who believe and bombshells out there about trump ukraine that have not been discovered yet, what about the money that went to his wife in the Southern District of new york is going to do something. Thats a perennial among the circles. So they think theres great evidence that the house has ignored by rushing to impeachment. Remember they said they had to rush to impeachment because the president opposed an imminent danger to our electoral system. Now they want to wait a while and hope something great comes up. That is apparently the thinking behind some of this. Lou that thinking, that is hardly thinking. That is a fantasy, conjuring more crab at the event for three years. Dont you believe, i want to know seriously, dont you believe that the radical dems have slightly underestimated the intelligence of the American People because they could just check on the most recent polls over the last few weeks in which the president continues to rise, their standing continues to decline in the opposition to impeachment of articles rises steadily through that time. They look like fools and theyre behaving by fools, i cannot imagine anyone ever trusting them with public office. If you look, those trends that you just mentioned, think about yesterdays talk is on passing articles last night, the speaker of the house came out this morning, on wednesday night she impeach the president of the United States and on thursday morning she comes out that she doesnt want to talk about it. Then we go into a crazy were holding our own heart articles hostage routine. Then you ask yourself given the chains that you mention, is that going to help for democrats, it seems very unlikely that it would. Lou it is so stunning, i want to quote the wall street editorial board. I love what they wrote, if we can put this up as a fullscreen. They said mr. Trump will be acquitted in the senate and democrats may have help mr. Trump with reelection. Congratulations to the resistance. I truly believe that is the bottom line and if they want to persistent with a stupid idea of delaying sending over the articles of impeachment based on more crab narratives, that is their choice but i think the only beneficiary will be republican candidates in the president being reelected. Theres two elements of what theyre talking about, one the state of the country, you were just talking about what the Economic Indicators in the records we have had this year in the market and all of the rising wages, republicans are very happy with judges being confirmed, there is all that as a result of the term presidency and then there is the feeling and its really supported by what weve seen today the democrats are not playing fairly trying to get him, they been trying to get him from the very beginning. Lou they been trying to overthrow the president of the United States. They wanted to do it would trump russia, now theyve done this impeachment and theyre doing the wacky trick of not sending the articles over. It gives you the impression that theyre not playing fair in the senate and the much smaller world, some of those republicans who are said to be wavering, they are actually united with their party by the upper session that the house is not playing fair. Lou even a suggestion with the radical Democratic Party would not be any help whatsoever it would probably be the death as a matter of fact, even the rinos and the people you are referring to. By the way the other chief advantage that has arisen as a result of the sinister nonsense of the left and that is the Republican Party united in the senate and the house and that augurs well for 2020 as well. You get the last word. You are right, what are the things most striking about the house, 0 votes for either article of impeachment, back on october 31 when they have the boat to extend the inquiry republicans were proud of getting 0 votes, they were hoping they could do it again and they did.
