classified system amid these allegations that that amounts to a cover-up. that admission matches almost verbatim what is in the whistle-blower complaint which goes to say, "one white house official described this act as an abuse of this electronic system because the call did not contain anyone remotely sensitive from a national security perspective." all of this as house speaker nancy pelosi is narrowing the impeachment inquiry to focus on ukraine with democrats pushing for a vote as soon as next month. president trump signaling how he plans to fight this telling attendees of a private event in new york this is war. >> so the whistle-blower came out and said nothing. said a couple of people told me he had a conversation with ukraine. we're in a war. these people are sick. >> with me now, cnn senior white house correspondent pamela brown. pamela explain further how these officials are explaining where these were stored? >> a white house official acknowledged a key graph of the whistle-blower was accurate. in a statement it said nfc lawyers directed the classified document, talking about the transcript between zelensky and trump, be handled appropriately. what the white house is saying according to the senior official is, yes. nsc lawyers directed it be listed in the code file, nothing wrong with it and making the argument the transcript was classified as every head of state transcript is, but, brianna, the code word system that the crypt was moved into is reserved for highly classified transcripts that include information like covert operations. it's not typically used to house classified information like a call with a head of state that doesn't have the more sensitive layer to it as i just mentioned. we are told, brianna, the white house began to clamp down on who could see head of state calls after the leaks. president's calls with the head of mexico, with australia and with putin. it raises questions whether this was the only transcript moved there or whether there were other transcripts moved there that also didn't meet that threshold of highly classified information. it is interesting, too, that this does corroborate part of the complaint, and as you know, brianna, the president continued to go after this whistle-blower, attacking the credibility of the whistle-blower, calling the whistle-blower biased. at last check according to a senior administration official, though, the president nor the white house knows what the identity of this whistle-blower is, brianna. >> pamela brown, thank you so much. and now one of my next guests joined 300 former national security professionals in signing a letter to sound the alarm about the president's actions with ukraine. it reads in part "if we fail to speak up and act now our foreign policy and national security will officially be an offer to those who can most effectively fulfill theerogative prerogatives." it goes on "this is serious enough to merit impeachment proceedings." and with me, a washington investigative correspondent for the "new york times," also a cnn national security analyst. jeffrey, to you first. the white house coming out and saying, yes, information was moved, but the line from the white house is that this was appropriate. so as someone who understands how these things work, explain it to us. >> sure. there are systems that the white house has to appropriately handle information of a very sensitive nature for national security purposes. i think what's most troubling about what we've seen in the whistle-blower's complaint and what we've learned so far through your reporting and others is that this transcript seems to have been moved from one system, from one server, to another server, as a way of protecting the president's personal misconduct or protecting the president from embarrassment. not for national security reasons. one key point. these systems are designed to protect our nation's most closely-held secrets. the reason for national security that those information systems are in place and it's very unusual, in fact, unprecedented in my experience to have information moved from one system to another for other than national security or classifications reasons. >> i wonder if the white house is more comfortable trying to say, no, we do this sometimes. look, we have leaks. if they're more comfortable to explain the movement of this transcript which they say is essentially not a big deal than to discuss the content what is in the phone call is there anything to that? >> of course, it raises questions about what other calls, other transcripts, were indeed processed and handled in this way, but as we and others reported, there were several officials listening to the call who immediately were concerned. not necessarily for classification reasons or national security issues. concerned about what the president said on the call. so inside the white house there was a worry that this was a problem. so the fact that this transcript was handled this way does raise concerns, as you said, that this was done for political reasons, besides any kind of actual national security reasons and, of course, then if other calls were processed this way, then why? >> jeffrey, this statement to cnn from the white house, the white house says national security council attorneys directed this ukraine call can transcript to be moved. you were on obama's national security council. jack quinn, former clinton white house counsel, just said that sounds so odd to him, that white house lawyers would say that should be moved. what do you think? >> i completely agree. the white house lawyers, lawyers for the national security council of to protect the you'll of law. their job, essentially the traffic cop making sure nsc officials are following the rules and the law. it's deeply troubling these reports suggest nsc lawyers or white house lawyers were directing information to be mishandled or handled inappropriately. that raises serious red flags and real does need to be investigated. >> conducting themselves or whether or not that happened? >> both. >> talk about nancy pelosi. the speaker said that the attorney general, barr, who is mentioned in this phone call, but insists the doj does, that the president didn't actually reach out to him in the way he said he was going to in the phone call. pelosi says he's gone rog, adam schiff has little confidence the doj will be able to investigate barr or giuliani. schiff told them he expects subpoenas and working through the recess. what are you expecting from the administration? >> one natural process of things might be that the attorney general might recuse himself from something like this. we know how the president feels about recusals of the attorney general into these matters. that's unlikely. the fact barr is mentioned directly by the whistle-blower does then raise concerns about, or questions, about just the extent that the justice department would look into it. remember, the justice department has also, barr ordered an inquiry into this whole matter involving the election in 2016 that is currently being handled by an attorney, a u.s. attorney in connecticut, john durham. there's always this ongoing doj investigation, and so it's, it appears, you know, certainly congress will try to get information from the doj, and you can see why democrats in congress would not think that barr is an honest broker in this but not expect that he was going to recuse himself from this. >> thank you both. appreciate it. so what's going on with rudy giuliani as he faces intense heat?

gop senator mitt romney called the transcript troubling. other republican senators, many of them, say they haven't read it, or they have no comment on the whistle-blower complaint. joining me now to discuss former congressman and 2020 republican presidential candidate joe walsh. joe, thanks for joining us. >> hi, brianna. good to be with you. >> congressman, first i want your reaction to this complaint and the white house now acknowledging that officials did direct this ukraine call transcript to be filed in a separate, more highly classified system. they're clearly saying it was appropriate and confirms this was moved. is that an impeach offense in your eyes? >> absolutely, and brianna, let's pull ourselves back for a minute, because we tend to over analyze and over complicate every with this president. what have we learned this week? we learned that the president of the united states asked a foreign government to interfere in our 2020 election. that's what the american people found out this week stounding at that, right? the president asking a country to interfere in our 2020 election is the very issue that has torn this country apart for the last two or three years. russia interfering in our 2016 election, and we find out this week that this guy in the white house asked another country to interfere in our 2020 election? brianne narcs it's impeachable. >> it's clear that this president, and this is a serious thing to say, doesn't give a damn about this country, and, brianna, this is a gut check. this is gut-check time for republicans. >> he has certainly said publicly in the abstract prior to all this coming to light this kind of thing was okay. he would do this kind of thing. now we've seen the phone call. we've seen the memo. we've seen the complaint. he doesn't still at this point, he's attacking the whistle-blower. he doesn't seem to think that there is anything the matter with all of this. >> and, again, brianna, not surprising, because to put it quite simply, we have a president who doesn't have any respect for the rule of law. he doesn't have any respect for truth, and he's got no guardrails. look, all donald trump cares about is donald trump. and this phone call, what we learned this week makes it clear. if there's one issue, brianna, eating at this country for the last three years it's foreign interference in our election, and here's -- here's the president of the united states just a couple months ago on this call, it's quite literally like he's giving his middle finger to the american people. i don't care about that. i'm going to ask another government to interfere in our 2020 election. i dare you to come get me. he's giving the country the middle finger and republicans better understand that. >> joe, you said there are no guardrails. i think it's pretty stunning to a lot of people, because a lot of americans think there are guardrails. there are laws that government figures including the president, are supposed to operate within, and then you even look at this whistle-blower process where the doj, and william barr a part of this complaint, and the white house, the president being at the center of this, get brought into this. this almost doesn't even go to congress. what is this revealing to you about how things maybe need to change, because there should be guardrails's shouldn't there? >> brianna, there should be guardrails and the attorney general doesn't work for donald trump. the attorney general is, works for the united states of america. and, brianna, that's interesting. you just raises what is probably the second most disturbing thing we learned this week. whistle-blowers in america should be revered. they should be praised. they should be protected. you have the president of the united states yesterday basically saying the whistle-blower is a spy and should be hung for treason. look, brianna, if i'm president i can tell you what, i believe in transparency and if a whistle-blower has a complaint, a whistle-blower should be able to take that complaint directly to congress, and i would encourage a whistle-blower to do this. donald trump, again, acting like some sort of mob boss, he thinks everything is about him, and it's not about the country, and i'm going to be a broken record again, brianna. the republicans have to decide. this is gut-check time. are they going to defend trump or are they going to defend the rule of law? >> congressman, what about so many voters who support donald trump? i mean, what is -- not disparaging voters who support donald trump at all, but my point being, they have a point of view, they are attracted to his message enough that this other stuff we're talking about doesn't matter enough to influence that support. what sdl that tell yodoes that u about what you need to listen to from voters, you're a candidate, and what you need to be providing voters? >> his voters, brianna, have so much invested in what he was, and i get that, because his voters are the same folks listening to me on the radio for the last six years. they're tired of both political parties. they're tired of the political system. so they said, let's put this guy in the white house and he'll shake it up and drain the swamp. i can tell you, brianna, that being out there in new hampshire and iowa and campaigning, i'm beginning to sense more and more every day his voters are fed up with the drama. they're fed up with waking up every single day and there's another trump scandal or issue in the news. they're just tired with it. i actually think, brianna, his voters are going to move before congressional republicans will. it will take some time. >> it might take that for congressional republicans to move indeed. thank you so much. geraldo rivera would like to "beat up the rotten smidge whistle-blower." one example how this is playing on the president's favorite channel. we'll discuss with michael smerconish next, and if white house officials tried covering up this call, hiding this, are they legally exposed?

the president's personal lawyer is pointing a finger back at the president's administration? >> so rudy giuliani has been portrayed in a lot of this thus far as a rogue agent. in the complaint, the whistle-blower uses the word "circumvention" to describe concerns he was hearing from others about rudy giuliani's role. now giuliani responds and shows these texts. one of which is thanking him for his involvement and comes from someone named volker, our special representative to ukraine. the point giuliani wants us to realize he was very much on the team and acting at the behest of the state department. i look at that and say to myself, okay. mr. volker, one more person whose testimony will probably come out in the wash that we will hear from before this whole process runs its course. >> the reporting out of the volker camp is basically that they have rudy giuliani running amok and they're trying to contain him and he's the president's personal lawyer. so they're being nice how they talk to him? >> it could be that, but then again it could be because he's so close to the president that he's given deference and they rely on his connection to the president to run interference. i mean, i looked at the text and looked at the complaint. it's hard to square the two of them without taking testimony from each of them. >> let's talk about how this is playing outside the beltway. outside of the coast here. and let's talk also how this is playing on fox news. let's listen to geraldo rivera just this morning. >> so it's going to be the president of the united states in a conversation intercepted by a rotten snitch i'd love to whop him, that's another story. imagine this president his whole tenure in office marked by snitches, rats and back stabbers and it's amazing how he functions at all. >> this is, of course, what the president is listening to. what, though, do the president's supporters, maybe people who voted for president trump, but you know, they're not so sure what are they thinking, michael? >> so in the olc legal opinion, you get into the weeds brianna in a hurry in this case. there'sali alit lot something f everybody. a reference made to this indisia of political bias on the part of the whistle-blower. to your point, the president's supporters i'm sure when we get a look at this individual will say, uh-huh, political bias. then you read the next sentence, it says, nevertheless, was deemed to be krcredible. detractor of the president, it's a credible individual. my gut check is, and i know cnn has not yet squared away the reporting as to who exactly this person was and what their job was, but commonsensically i say if it was someone working in the intel community given access to the white house, it's not like they talked a talk radio show off the street. vetted to? get their gig and seemingly will have credibility. although in the complaint acknowledges much of this is hearsay. relying on the reports of others. so i think there's a lot of testimony that needs to be taken before we really can look at evidence and know what it is. i know there's a rush. people want to weigh in and know immediately which way it cuts. i just think it's premature. >> just to your point, though, michael, about hearsay, because we always want to be careful about, did this person actually see the phone call? no, they didn't. but when you read what the whb hb sa whistle-blower said about the phone call it matches the memo. almost reads as if they did read the transcript. >> to your point, when you look at the whistle-blower complaint, i've not heard anyone thus far say, uh-huh. take a look at what was stated in it, and's it's incorrect. i mean, i guess mayor giuliani would say well they accused me of circumvention and i was circumstance come veening anything, but you're right. the whistle-blower apparently didn't hear, see the transcript of that call. i just reread the paragraphs. they really are an uncanny match for what we did find in the transcript. >> yeah. michael, thank you so much. michael smerconish. >> thank you. and be sure to watch "smerconish" saturday mornings at 9:00 eastern only on cnn. speaker pelosi says attorney general bill barr has "gone rogue." new details about when the justice department first learned of the whistle-blower's allegations. t-mobile's newest signal reaches farther than ever before. with more engineers. more towers. more coverage! it's a network that gives you ♪freedom from big cities, to small towns, we're with you. because life can take you almost anywhere, t-mobile is with you. no signal goes farther or is more reliable in keeping you connected. but allstate actually helps you drive safely... with drivewise. it lets you know when you go too fast... ...and brake too hard. with feedback to help you drive safer. giving you the power to actually lower your cost. unfortunately, it can't do anything about that. now that you know the truth... are you in good hands?

>> well, certainly michael atkinson, the inspector general of the intelligence community, felt it did fall within that definition, and certainly sometimes on difficult legal issues reasonable minds can differ including reasonable legal minds including those of the department of justice lawyers at the office of legal counsel. those lawyers wrote the opinion that the complaint, the topic of the complaint, did not involve the funding or administration of intelligence activities and the subject of the complaint, that being the president, was not a member of the intelligence community. it was a very, i would say sort of technical reading of the words of the statute to say that this is not something that is within dni, is the director of national symbol ens intelligence's purview and requirement to send to congress. mr. atkinson disagreed, persistent and continued to ask for guidance so it could get to congress, he felt it was important to get to congress and asked for guidance from the director of national intelligence on how to ensure that this report would get to congress. >> does this complaint warrant a criminal investigation, in your view? >> so reading the complaint in combination with then reading the memo that was released, i guess it was yesterday, that is sort of a rough transcript of the call, the rough transcript itself i think is indicative enough to warrant further investigation. at least based on my experience 20 years as a federal prosecutor and three more years over at the national security division. there are several, indications of several different types of crimes, not just campaign finance violations but also bribery and gratuities, and so i was surprised to learn and i still have friends and colleagues i rep very, very highly at the department of justice and i don't want to guess what their legal rationale might have been because we haven't seen it in writing. all we've done is heard from justice officials through their spokesperson i guess that they determined not to go further with the investigation, and that did surprise me. >> do you worry that those lawyers are in a tough spot here? and that they could be influenced? >> i certainly think that there are lawyers in a tough spot at the department of justice. certainly career lawyer whose have made, you know, years and in many cases decades out of doing criminal investigations and doing other investigations, national security investigations. i think that these people are of utmost integrity and would stick by their viewpoints but ultimately report up within the chain to political appointees and so the political appointees do ultimately have the final say on matters like this. >> very good point. mary mccord, thank you so much. >> thank you. president trump making threatening comments and accusing the whistle-blower of treason. we're going to talk about the impact of his war on u.s. intelligence agencies will have on u.s. national security. also, joe biden, one of the president's targets here says sp president trump is trying to hijack and election. we're oscar mayer deli fresh and you may know us from... your very first sandwich, your mammoth masterpiece. and...whatever this was. because we make our meat with the good of the deli and no artificial preservatives. make every sandwich count with oscar mayer deli fresh. i've always been faand still going for my best, even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's a better treatment than warfarin... i want that too. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. what's next?
