Cottage. Paul marcs life at the white house with more. This video really just came out last hour or so. It was released to fox news and other media organizations across the country. As you mention, it came from the attorney of lava parnas who is a former associate of rudy giuliani. This video appears to be taken in 2018 and it made have been recorded on a cell phone. It bounces around disc because it was being taken discreetly. It appears to be showing President Trump saying get rid of her. And saying she may not be supporting the president. The video is about an hour long and you can see it is just raw footage here. We asked the white house about this on friday because the report was about the existence of this tape in the comments about yovanovitch. The presser told on friday that every president in our history has the right to place people who support his agenda and policies within the administration. We reached up to the white house to see if they have any additional comments but we have not heard back. Meantime President Trumps lawyers are arguing that the impeachment case its making its way up on capitol hill is all about overturning the 2016 election and then hindering the election going into 2020. One should listen to at the white House Counsel had to say on senate floor earlier today. And they did not tell you what that would mean for our country. Today, this year, and forever into our future. They are asking you to do something that no senate has ever done. And they are asking you to do it with no evidence. Now the president s defense team said the presentation was a sneak preview of what they will be laying out on monday. It appears the president was watching the proceedings based on his tweet late this afternoon he wrote any fairminded person watching the senate trial today, would be able to see how unfairly i have been treated in this indeed beat total partisan impeachment hoax this should never be allowed to happen again. That was the president on twitter this afternoon. We expect the defense team to continue to argue the president did not have assistance on anything and the comments that president zelensky said there was no quid pro quo and he did not expect any pressure. We expect that would happen after people of asked question. We have not seen the president on camera today. We know hes expected to keep a busy schedule next week as impeachment moves on. Eric are wrapping up the first of opening arguments in them Senate Impeachment trial, the defense team claiming the Democratic House managers have no evidence to convict or support removing the president from office. All this amid the looming question of whether the senate will eventually call new witnesses. On the first day, i said i thought they did a good job of weaving a tapestry that was compelling lest it stand up to scrutiny. What i say today that tapestry looks a lot different than it did a few days ago. And thats the way trials are conducted. They made the argument that no one really knows what the president intended. Mick mulvaney knows, and all likelihood mr. Blair knows, mr. Bolton may know. Why shouldnt we have witnesses and documents here. Speed five many wondering if formal break from the pack for witness. We well break it all down from us from the hill. Brevity was the word of the day in the senate trial as the president s lawyers began their defense. Heres white House Counsel Pat Cipollone. We are going to be very respectful of your time, we anticipate going about two to three hours at most and be out of here by 1 00 oclock at the latest. They were out a lot earlier than that. This was a concerted effort from President Trumps legal team to sway senators after hours of lengthy arguments presented by the Democratic House impeachment managers. Deputy white House Counsel defended the president s late july phone call between the president and the leader of ukraine. The fact that president zelensky had no pressure at all and did not perceive any connection between a Security Assistance and investigations board in any ordinary case, and any court, be totally fatal to the prosecution. The judge would throw it out, the case would be over, what more do you need to know . The president s defense team tried to undercut the house impeachment managers again raising questions about the whistleblower, the Intelligence Committee which is chaired by adam schiff. I dont even know who the whistleblower is. The whistleblower came to our committee, and the president s counsel was perfect but silly ambiguous about this. And said we got some kind of advice. While the advice that he or she, the whistleblower got, was you should talk to a lawyer and you should talk to the inspector general. I spoke today to someone who is familiar with this. The president thought things went very well and he wants to wrap this up expeditiously. The key now im told is for people to not screw up on the sunday shows that they go out there and defend the president and the republicans try to get their message out as they go into the trial come monday. Eric theres a lot there tomorrow we have the Public Affairs show on Fox News Sunday. Arthel from one right now we are bringing in oklahoma senator he is the chairman of the Armed Services committee. Center thank you for joining us. Aside to be with you. Arthel what do you think of the president s Defense Team Arguments of what you make of the brevity of their presentation . First about a thing its a good idea because they are going to get 24 hours, i guess it is. It doesnt matter if its saturday, monday or tuesday. The president feels, and i was with him yesterday, in fact the handle argument with him because he was saying we should not even be starting on saturday and i countered a lot of your people they are working people. They are there on saturday want to see it. So they split down the middle. I think they had two hours today maybe two and half hours and the rest of it there will be 21 hours in the next two days on monday and tuesday. So i think that is good, i think they may not even use all of their time. You see once we go to that, we go to the questions from the members, ive got my questions i am ready, and then we are coming down to a close. So it could all be ended this week. Arthel was there anything particular you are listing for today and did you hear anything that is change your mind . I really didnt, first of all i was very familiar with all of the accusations, all the namecalling, all the yelling and screaming that has taken place with the 24 hours we had schiff in the crowd in there. So i was watching that and i know all those issues. But i do all of them to be false. So i knew before they came up and defended it what the real truth was in those areas. You have to remember there are only two articles that they voted on. And both of them. [inaudible] the first one being no direct evidence, it was all hearsay, it was not directive. And when you talk about the obstruction of congress, and the abuse of power, those things were all stopped on the obstruction of congress. I dont how they overlooked it. But apparently its not just the public that was cheated or the president that was cheated out of his Constitutional Rights during the process and the senate and the house, it was also the house members. Because they are supposed to vote before they have an impeachment before it goes to the senate. And they never voted. And so i would say in terms of the obstruction of congress, thats not valid anyway because they never legally voted on it. So i liked what i heard, i think they did a good job. And i think also dated there was somebody things they did not talk about. I chair the Armed Services committee, and i bet 75 of the talk that we suffered through for the last three or four days, was about whether or not the president was offering the right help to our ally. And i happen to know what that situation is. I know because the first time we voted on it, was in 2016, that was during the Defense Authorization bill of that year. Oddly enough, two of the people, all of them that were there serving at that time, including shift voted against the help for our friends. They spent most of their time talking about that and they actually opposed it. So that is going to come out loud and clear. But the first major thing i think youre going to hear on monday. Arthel if you are talking about ukraine. Kiger short answered you expect any witnesses . [booing] no i dont think so but its a vote that is going to take place. All we have to do is pick off for republicans and there be a vote. I dont think there are. I am not a lawyer, but i know something about the process, and when you develop your case and have your depositions, youre ready to go to court, you dont come to court and ask for witnesses after youve already presented your case unless you know your case is not working. So i think the real motivation is for them to keep this president busy. Here weve got a lot of things we should be doing, were doing a great job in the economy, were building our military, look at the judges we have right now. So good things are happening, but they would like to stop those things from happening so they can talk about impeaching the president as long as they can between now and november. And we are just not let that happen. Arthel all right senator jim inhofe of oklahoma, thank you. Eric know that the sports term.
