We had to arrive at 7 00 this morning for a sweep of our vehicle, we are seeing secret Service Agents and bombsniffing dogs. The president left new mexico after a Campaign Rally last night.

President trump . Welcome to the lead. Im jake tapper. We begin with breaking news. House democrats right now holding their first impeachment inquiry and it has gotten ugly fast. Testifying today is former Trump Campaign manager Corey Lewandowksi who at the direction of the white house is refusing to answer most questions. Lewandowski never worked in the white house.

Lewandowski is doing everything he can to frustrate the democrats seeking his testimony. Cnns manu raju is on capitol hill. Manu, what has lewandows
