This whole thing is a joke. it s over. it s done for me. over and done for me. he says it s secondhand information and it s hearsay. let s not forget, linda tripp s testimony in the clinton impeachment was hearsay and didn t stop republicans like him from voting to impeach and impeaching bill clinton. anyway, this isn t a criminal trial. it s an impeachment inquiry so that is irrelevant and it s just irrelevant. but lindsey graham says that he is done with it after one day. sounds like hiding your head in the sand to me because you d have to ignore a whole lot of evidence to buy what republicans are arguing. that there is no there, there. and i m going to take you through it. so let s start with the most obvious evidence that you would have to ignore, okay? you d have to ignore the transcript of the president s infamous july 25th ukraine call. right after president zelensky says that he liked to buy more anti-missiles from the united ....
Good to have you with us. good morning. so president trump wants to expose the whistle-blower. we heard it there because he thinks that person is making up false stories despite all the testimony we have already heard so far from the impeachment inquiry, and of course the transcript from the now infamous july 25th ukraine call backing up what the whistle-blower has said. so how significant is it that a u.s. president wants to expose a whistle-blower given what we know so far? i think it s less significant with respect to what the whistle-blower testified to than to a chilling effect affecting all federal civil servants. if the standard becomes that if you reveal information that s politically damaging to the president, the whistle-blower protections enshrined in law will no longer be respected and no longer be valid that your identity can be made public, that you can face the sort of storm of public interest and probably from what we have seen a great deal of threatening ....
