biggs, representative biggs and perry impeachment inquiry shows deep state continues to undermine trump. you say if we have learned anything from the last two weeks, it is the reality of the deep state or swamp democrats have been relentlessly attacking president trump since the election and they have been joined by the washington establishment. a cadre of career diplomats have come to the intelligence committee to testify against president trump in the impeachment inquiry. tell us a little bit more what you mean by this deep state. guest: what i saw firsthand, especially in the skiff and the testimony of the inter-- inter-agency members -- that was a term hereto for not used, inter -- these folks seem to be -- this is my characterization, my opinion. i think many people. it -- got it and seemed affronted that the president was badly in what they saw as their purview. we write the talking points, we set the policy and make decisions and all of a sudden the president has been interjected or interdicted himself. i wrote it down in my notes, one of these individuals said i suppose the pres

congressman biggs and congressman gohmert. you have done great in the congressional hearings in the house. senator lindsey graham asked, will you subpoena the telephone reports of adam schiff the way they did with devin anyone's. his answer was that ain't going to happen. the way i read what some of these senators are saying, fit gets to the senate, we won't make this a long process. do you get the sense they don't have the hunger you guys have? >> they are in what used to be called the gentleman's club. it's more laid back, and you don't want to ruffle any feathers. but the trouble is, they are playing destruction, wreaking havoc on our country. you said we were conduct scorched earth policy. it's those who have been making ashes out of themselves on the other side. judge jeanine: i agree. you guys have been fighting like hell. adam schiff says in the "new yorker" the president doesn't give a shi about what's good for the country. what's good for ukraine. >> the fact of the matter is we have more people working than ever befo

congressman biggs, they will be spooning in the oval office. this is how a lunatic it has all become. >> you know, maxine waters, don't forget she's been calling for impeachment come almost 100 of them voted for impeachment before we had the zelensky phone call. >> laura: impeach 45, impeach 45. >> exactly, yeah, and she is also the one who advocated people to harass, physically, verbally, people who supported president trump, people in his cabinet. i offer a motion to signature for that. the reality is, she is unhinged on this. that is really unfortunate, but that is where we are. and she's not alone. she's not alone. >> laura: welcome if you think this is unjust, trump, president trump, you are a russian asset, basically. that is their argument. robert, we raised an issue last night and so itching to get your opinion on this. in andrew jackson's case, when they took back the house and the senate, his censure was ultimately expunged by the senate. could you see something urhappening here akin to that? is it possible under the constitution that

congressman jim jordan, andy biggs are there, and they will be stepping out to join us later in the hour, so don't move, okay? also tonight, the activities we found here don't vindicate anybody who touched this. that's a quote from who? the inspector general. that was one of the many monumental lies from him during this hearing today on fisa abuse that happened all day long in the senate. so what can we do to make sure this stuff doesn't happen again? and we don't want campaigns -- of either party -- targeted by members of the deep state, intel committee members chris stewart, he has a plan, and what punishments tonight we might be finding gold i would, now that horowitz says this was back in the hands of the geo day and fbi. former attorney general jeff sessions, interesting person to talk to tonight, has intriguing thoughts, and this is great, eric trump, just saw him in the green room, he is ready to go, okay? on how this impeachment struggle could be his father's finest hour, and why nancy pelosi made a colossal mistake with turning this over to schiff. and, okay, you know there's go

joining us now with more is minority whip caucus chairman andy biggs. gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us. congressman scalise, the press conference how they want more evidence. aren't they kind of de facto to impeach the president without evidence? am i reading this right? they already took a vote, no d they have enough evidence to impeach. this seems backwards. >> we said this all along, there was no crime. the president committed no crime . it was an impeachment in search of a crime, and they never found one. all of their witnesses, star witnesses said there was no crime, no bribery, and now you've got pelosi carrying out her own quid pro quo. she is trying to say, i won't give you the papers unless you do this. and is that what they were accusing president trump of? joe biden did quid pro quo he bragged about. i will take the taxpayers money if you don't fire the prosecutor. president trump is feeling one who didn't do one. but they impeached him for it. this is bizarre. and look, there is no faith. it is time for her to give this up and fin

. >> gregg: joining me now for a reaction, republican congressmen matt gaetz and andy biggs. looking at the latest polling data, bernie sanders is gaining momentum big time. and he is, for example neck and neck and may win iowa, he is a head substantially in new hampshire and boy, his fund-raising is taking off while elizabeth warren is tanking and all of a sudden, they will be forced back to washington in january off of the campaign trail with a senate impeachment trial. >> perhaps elizabeth warren's decreases in revenue correspond to her campaign not wanting to pay her wealth tax. but i think the bernie sanders ascension in the polls is a sign the venezuela wing of the democratic party is showing a little life here. you just got to wonder, gregg, who will win this on the democratic primary? you got joe biden as the blundering gas machine that he is. you've got kind of the weekend at bernie sanders campaign trudging along but gaining momentum and then elizabeth warren who has had her ebbs and flows. i don't see a winner in the field yet. >> gregg: you know, congressman biggs

biggs, you are not recorded. mr. biggs notes no. >> has everyone voted that wishesas to vote? >> am i recorded? >> ms. scanlon, you are not recorded. >> ms. scanlon votes aye. mr. correa votes aye. >> the clerk will report. >> there arel 24 ayes and 17 n. mr. goldman, you may begin. >> thank you, mr. chairman. chairman nadler and ranking memberr collins and members of the committee, we are here today because donald j. trump, the 45th president of the united states, abused the power of his office. american presidency, for his political and personal benefit. president trump directed a month's long campaign to solicit foreign help in his 2020 re-election efforts, withholding official acts from the government of ukraine in order to coerce and secure political assistance and interference in our domestic affairs. as part of this scheme, president trump applied increasing pressure on the president of ukraine to publicly announce two investigations helpful to his personal re-election efforts. he applied this pressure himself and through his agents, working within and outside of the u.

congressman andy biggs and former whitewater independent counsel robert ray are here tonight to respond. also tonight, the failure of the 2020 democrats to push back successfully against the presidents roaring economy will be the story of next year's election. we are ready here at "the ingraham angle" and frank luntz to explain it all. the publication "christianity today" most of you have never heard of them up but it comes out for impeaching the president. and an obvious attempt to boost its lagging sales and subscriptions. ralph reed is here tonight to deliver a fiery response, also come it wouldn't be friday night without raymond arroyo and chris desk christmas themed "friday follies" in which holiday song is number one? it just hit number one. and this cannot be true. am i reading this? we speak exclusively to santa. wait a second. a small santa replaced forget this, wearing a trump 2020 hat in a private photo. but first, it is time to put house democrats on trial for perpetrating a massive fraud on the american people. i started this conversation last night and tonight, we will con

and it just didn't happen. >> laura: congressman biggs it is embarrassing. this whole thing, this entire process, i've tried to treat it seriously when i can buy at the time i want to burst out laughing because they are taking a baseball bat and knowing it will hurt when they get themselves in the face, and they smash, smash, smash. b maybe it won't hurt this time. and then maybe it will be on the floor unconscious soon. i can't believe they keep doing this. >> i'm with c you on that. i find myself saying if i wasn't here, i would not believe this. this is so self indignation to the highestnd degree. you know. it is comical in one sense. because you see them rushing around. let's face it. nadler had to write a longer on then schiff because he was left out. who knows what will happen next. >> laura: bob, we will talk to the senator in a moment, but this most of the senate. given what you have seen and the abuse and fisa and the politicization of all of this from the beginning with surveilling the trump administration and they were spied on my what do you thin

congressman biggs, where do things stand at very moment? >> where we are where we were a week 1/2 ago. nancy pelosi is basically holding on to the articles. she is not transmitting, she is softly backing away from her original reason why, she wanted leverage, wanted to control the u.s. senate trial which she cannot do. so, question is, and you have asked it, framed it right, is she going to transmit? if so, when will she transmit? what impact will that have? unlike any other time in the history of this country. where you have the speaker of the house trying to control the senate doing its constitutional duty. charles: beyond the hubris of speaker of the house trying to dictate how things go in the senate, it feels like the democrats, particularly nancy pelosi, grappling as this thing lingers on. hasn't served them well with respect to public opinion polls, fund-raising things like that. i feel they enter into an area and they're not sure how to get themselves out of it? >> i agree with you. they kept, as going through this. nancy pelosi sai

of his biggs biggs thank you -- mr. biggs: thank you, madam speaker. form, h.r. 5038 would subject growers to a new rivate right of action in federal court. as a result, these people would face countless and frivolous the forms of damages and other litigation costs. he bottom line is that many american farmers and other agricultural employers would be sued right out of business. of the vision is one main reasons that arguably the biggest agricultural group in the american farm bureau, does not support this bill. recommit would 204-a andikes section b of the bill. this motion to recommit is supported by the american farm i ask all members to support it as well. as a technical matter, madam speaker, we seek to recommit the judiciary committee, and that's think itng to me and i should be of interest to all of us here, because in just a few ours, that committee is going to meet on a completely bogus impeachment. over a week ago, every republican member of the signed a committee letter to request a minority day hearing. going to have the markup hours, and w

back with andy biggs from washington you heard it, sir. your reaction. >> well, i have several points to make. when she talks about a monarchy, that's why we have elections. the second point is if this really is an exigent circumstance why did we take off all the time in august, september, october, november, with no action on impeachment or investigation. the third thing is professor turley said yesterday and he is exactly right, there is no evidence here. so when she says the facts are not contested, she is flat out not telling the truth. the facts are highly contested here. and we have not had fact witnesses in the committee of jurisdiction that will be marking up articles of impeachment. professor turley said going forward on such flimsy evidence, that's how he described it, in such a fast, quick manner without a thorough investigation -- he is not opposed necessarily to impeachment. he says you can't do it the way you're doing it, it will undermine the notion of impeachment in the future and there won't be a president who is not subjec

plus, steve scalise and andy biggs, this is a great lineup, explains why jerry nadler's missionary hearing might be a bigger sham than schiff and that is going to be a little later. then i expose how the democrats' impeachments do may need a redo. then, it was not said in poll numbers and a lack of cash brought kamala harris' campaign crashing down today. are you ready' for this? racism and sexism. now they are eating their own on those charges. charlie hertz is going to break all that down for us and the media's latest distortion. but first, on a straight party line vote, house intel committee democrats and approved theirr impeachment report a few hours ago and it claims there is overwhelming evidence that trump misused his officean to pressure ukraine to investigate biden and obstructed the house and impeachment inquiry along the way. the report also includes nine t key findings of fact -- i should put fact in quotes -- that makes specific charges against the president. we will get into those in a moment. despite having his name at the top of the report. congressman adam schiff reallyo w

andy biggs, co-chair of the border security caucus. if the president is such an imminent threat as pelosi has been claiming for several months, which is why she has to rush through the articles of impeachment, then her halting the process seems to make no sense unless she was just lying all along which is my bet. what do you think? >> you are right on. look at it. she herself said they have been trying to impeach president trump for 2 1/2 years. then at the end of september she said we have to do this. it's a critical thing. we have to get this done before the election or else he will steal the election. for him to come out and hold the articles and not transmit them to the senate as if that's going to get her leverage. it's just making her look bad. it's a bad faith move on her part. it's bad faith all the way. that's consistent with what we have seen for through years. gregg: lisa murkowski says she is disturbed that mitch mcconnell would coordinate with the white house. she is apparently oblivious that in 1999 tom daschle coordinate

biggs' amendment that it's not true. it's real clear. ukrainians signed two major anti-corruption measures. that's exactly what they did, high anti-corruption court when the parliament was first sworn in and they got rid of absolute immunity for members of their parliament. two pretty darn important anti-corruption efforts. mr. morrison, when he testified in front of this committee, told us -- excuse me, when we did his deposition, he told us when they were there with ambassador bolton visiting with ukrainians august 27th, they told us they were tired because they had been up all night, preparing this legislation, putting it together. that's how focused they were on this. when it passed and it was enacted, that's, in fact, when the aid was released. >> i yield back. >> i yield to the ranking member. no? yield to mr. gaetz. >> thank you, mr. chairman. house democrats would have you believe that somehow this impeachment effort is the outgrowth of organic activity from the president when the reality is that they've intended to impeach this
