white house lawyer, mr. chairman i understand you agree with the position and the advice provided by the department of justice that has been used by administrations in both parties. chairman nadler, i'm not going to debate it. it's nonsense. bill weld was a staffer at the same time that hillary clinton was a staffer working on the impeachment of richard nixon. bill weld say republican candidate running against president trump in the republican primaries. bill weld joins us now. governor, thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you, lawrence. >> i want to work backwards with your experience in the nixon impeachment proceedings to a discussion of where we are with iran. let's start with that. these moments in that meeting yesterday where white house counsel are leaning in over a witness who no longer works at the white house saying she didn't even answer the question about where her desk was. >> clearly they are trying to obstruct the investigation and there is no longer any reason to delay impeachment pr

he said that today's outcome would have been welcome for both mexico and the white house. certainly mr trump is going to be pleased he is getting this reaction from mexico — thousands of national guard on the border, a commitment to tackling the human trafficking organisations that operate in this country, and obviously certain things on remaining in mexico while your asylum claim is going through in the united states. that was particular key for the trump administration. but i think mexico can afford to be quite pleased too. let's face it — they've avoided the tariffs, which was, i think, their main objective. just remind us, what was at risk for president obrador and mexico? just how crippling could these tariffs have been? they'd have been awful. i mean, let's remember that it's somewhere in the region of $350 billion worth of trade heading north a year. so, if you imagine a 5% tariff on all of that, that's going to be extremely painful for producers and manufacturers in this country. whether or not that's avocados and tequila or car parts, fridges, cars themselves.

trump will need to keep the white house, including florida, north carolina, and arizona. but mr. trump's campaign believes biden's record on trade and his previous support of nafta are weaknesses the president can exploit. >> joe biden thought that china was not a competitor of ours. joe biden is a dummy. >> iowa farmers have been crushed by his tariff over china. >> reporter: among iowa democrats, biden remains the favorite. today the former vice president dismissed the early surveys. >> i see all these polls. they give them to me. they don't mean a thing right now. this is a marathon. >> reporter: that iowa poll also showed that roughly three in four voters here want many of those running to be the democratic nominee, now numbering 24, to drop out. the president is concluding at an iowa gop fund-raiser just outdes moines. the trump campaign is also keeping its eye on massachusetts senator elizabeth warren. one senior campaign official describes her as authentic and the real deal. >>> jon stewart took his crusade for 9/11 first responders to capitol hill. he laid into congress f

mcgahn's counsel and stated he did not agree with the white house or mr. mcgahn and offered to continue negotiating. the chairman also gave mr. mcgahn a deadline of june 7. this past friday, to respond. meanwhile the rules committee notice add markup of this resolution on june 6. one day before the deadline. i think we are seeing the pattern here. this revealing error -- this is a veeling error, butterest roars acan could he when you are pushing action at light speed a a court will decide whether the house has standing and the case is right and whether the congress is entitled to the information. as also been said the proposition is a gamble. here, mr. speaker, we are gambling with the power of a co-equal branch. this approach is untested and can do significant harm to congress' article 1 authority. lastly, mr. speaker, i must make mention the authorization of the general counsel to seek probono legal services circumvents the house ethics rules. mrs. lesko: i yield another minute. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman allowed an additional minute. mr. col

hicks, do you recall if you knew why mr. lewandowski was at the white house that day? lawyer, objection. chairman nadler, were you present for any portion of that meeting? lawyer, objection. question, do you know if anything else was present for any portion of that meeting? objection. have you discussed that with anyone outside the white house. objection. have you discussed that with anyone outside the white house? objection. i know this sounds like slam poetry, but legally this whole thing probably has a point because congress not only notes wants to ask hope hicks these questions and other white house staff these types of questions, they think that hope hicks and other white house staff will ultimately be legally compelled to answer these questions by a court, because a court, they believe, will eventually rule that the basis on which these lawyers, the white house and the justice department are objecting here, is a made-up basis. it's not a real legal basis to prevent a witness from testifying to congress. and so, i mean, in pages and pages, for hours and hours and

mr. buchanan: ok, here we go. black white and loyalists, including 3000 free black servants to the maritimes. new brunswick and nova scotia where elizabeth johnson ended up. these figureske from a wonderful book, " liberties exiles, americans abroad and the revolutionary world." i think it is just excellent. 6000, including 500 mohawk to quÉbec. 5000 to ease florida who eventually had to leave with the spanish, when the spanish got florida back. about 8000 mostly white loyalists and 5000 free black loyalists to britain. 2500 white loyalists to the bahamas, bringing with them some 4000 slaves. jamaica, 3000 white loyalists and up to 8000 slaves. and she believes the total immigration was 60,000 with the caveat it could probably be increased by 10%. it's also, she believes, safety conclude the white loyalists took some 15,000 slaves with them. >> thank you. mr. buchanan: yes, sir? then. we have time for one more. here we go. mr. buchanan: >> you've barely mention native americans. mr. buchanan: beg your pardon? >>

commitments on trade are still all up in the air as long as mr trump is in the white house. well i don't think this is what's really important right now we've got an agreement in place that vice president pence signed with canada yesterday we need to have his signature with mexico and right now we're not going to sign anything with mexico until they make an agreement to do whatever it is president wants beyond that congress is not willing to pass it in both houses and until that's going to happen it makes no sense to put that bill up for a conversation or to potentially be passed as you see that nancy pelosi is saying that she's not going to do it unless she gets some other concessions once the deal's already been. he's changing the position and that's going to change the deal so unless we can make the deal go as it was originally agreed there's going to be changes but that's part of government and politics in general there's constant flux constant changes and we all speak for the narrative of the day and yeah you had some very interesting specifics lauren about specific mod

it is about the complete untethering of the white house with mr. trump's enablers here in congress of any accountability. that's really what's going on here. and on our side of the aisle, we are fighting to restore accountability. and the legitimate form of our government. in terms of the role of the legislature. and so let's not have any illusions about what really is going on. and that's why i'm happy to support the measure in front of us, and i hope all of our colleagues will join us. and i thank my friend for yielding. >> it's my pleasure, and i yield back the balance of my time. >> there being no further discussion on the amendments to the resolution, the question now carries on the adoption of the substitute amendment offered by the chairman. all those in favor shall signify by saying aye. all those opposed, no. in the opinion, the ayes have it. the ayes have it. the amendment is adopted.
