so can we please call -- madam clerk, can we please call the consent agenda? >> clerk: items 1 through 6 are on consent and considered to be routine. if requested, an item can be removed and heard separately. >> president yee: colleagues, would anyone like to remove any items from the consent agenda? seeing none, on items 1 through 6, madam clerk, please call the roll. [roll call] >> clerk: there are 11 ayes. >> president yee: okay. then without objections, these filings pass unanimously. [gavel]. >> president yee: madam clerk, let's go to our regular agenda and all items 7 -- call items 7 through 9 all together. >> clerk: items 7 is the ordinance to amend the planning code and the zoning map to create the 3333 california special use district. item 8 is an ordinance to approve an agreement between the city and laurel heights partners to develop a site located at california street and presidio avenue with various public benefits. and item 9 is the ordinance to create an encroachment for laurel partners to occupy adjacent sections of 3333 california street to ma

and at least four phone calls or attempted calls between parnas and knnunez including one call on november 12 that lasted more than eight minutes. let's take a look at it with our in-house investigator andrew mccabe. andrew, thank you so much for being with us tonight, very important. the first question i don't know if either of us know the answer to and i'm going to ask it to a member of the committee later in the show. these phone logs never came up during the testimony. do you think that -- couldn't be an oversight. was there some kind of rule about what could be asked about and what couldn't in that testimony? >> i doubt it, chris. i don't think so. as we've said many times before, this is an impeachment, it's not a criminal proceeding, not a grand jury proceeding. so, in other words, if the phone records were obtained through grand jury subpoenas, there would be some restrictions on how you could publicize that information that's protected by grand jury secrecy. none of that really applies here. i think other factors may have led the committee to stay away from the phone records in th

not a good call, a perfect call. a friend of mine who's a great lawyer, did you know this would be the subject of all the scrutiny because the way you express yourself this was like a perfect call. >> it was a perfect call, in fact, it was two perfect calls. >> a perfect phone call, an absolutely perfect call. >> the thing is, however, we keep learning new details surrounding that july 25th phone call that the president has repeatedly called perfect with ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky. "the washington post" reports 29 times in the past three months president trump has used twitter to implore the country to read the rough transcript of his july 25th call. the president has also instructed his gop allies to use a similar defense writing on twitter back in november, the call to the ukrainian president was perfect. read the transcript. there was nothing said that was in any way wrong. republicans, don't be lead into the fool's trap of saying it was not perfect but is not impeachable. no, that is much stronger tha

just like he did not mention corruption on the july 25th call shortly after this call president trump asked vice president mike pence to attend president selenski inauguration but on may 13th president trump did an about face and directed vice president pence not to attend an advisor to vice president pence testified that the inauguration had not yet been scheduled and therefore the reason for the abrupt change of plans was not related to any scheduling issues. so what had happened in the 3 weeks between april 21st and may 13th when vice president pence was originally invited and then disinvited ordered or removed from the delegation a few things 1st on april 21st 25th vice president biden formally announced his bid for the democratic nomination for president then about a week later on may 3rd president trump spoke with president putin on the telephone one senior state department official testified that the conversation between president trump and president putin included a discussion of ukraine 3rd on may 9th mr giuliani told the new york times that he intended to travel to ukraine o

i bought the 87.5 call now the call is worth $2.50. you want to roll that up a bit i'd be incline to look at i'd be inclined to look at january 90 call. look to use that to finance the purchase of the january 90 calls that's how i trade it. >> we are joined by options play chief strategist tony zang for more insight into starbucks. welcome to the options set tony >> thank you. >> what is your play, trade on starbucks. >> dan i like the trade. i thought you caught the inverted head and shoulders at the right time broke out about and it run up to 92 when you volumes are cheap. trade up about 6% like you said. and normally with options play i think we start thinking about trying to parse gains here but i think -- i found an interesting play here where you can roll it out to february $90 calls trade that for an even trade. which means that you can actually roll this out to february, capture earnings which is a week after your expiration date and be able to buy yourself another month without spending any more money. >> you know brian i've b

although i would say the call record is better evidence than their -- >> and the day after that call, david holmes testified that on july 26th he overheard the president ask ambassador sondland whether zelensky was going to do the investigation, is that correct evidence? >> that is direct evidence. >> and after the july 25 call record was released the president got on the white house lawn and again declares that ukraine should investigate a potential political opponent family the bidens, is that direct evidence. >> yes, it is. >> his own words. that seems like a lot of direct evidence. mr. goldman, was there other direct evidence that the committee relied on in addition to these? >> well there is a lot of evidence that i would call direct evidence because it's not hearsay. if any of the people involved in the scheme are talking to each other and they relay what someone else said, that is not hearsay. that would be in court a co-conspirator statement and that is admissible. so let's not get too far afield on talking about direct evidence -- >> we don't want to relive the law class. >>

on the call. the call summary shows president trump and president zelensky engaged in pleasantries and cordialities. the call summary reveals laughter. simply put, the call is not the sinister mob shakedown some democrats have described. president trump raised his concerns about european allies paying their fair share in security assistance to ukraine, a concern that president trump would continue to raise both publicly and privately. there is no discussion on the call, i repeat, no discussion on the call about the upcoming 2020 election or security assistance to ukraine. beyond the call summary, the next best piece of evidence are the statements from the two participants on the call. president zelensky has said he felt no pressure on the call. on september 25th at the united nations he said, we had a good call. it was normal. nobody pushed am he. on october 6th, president zelensky said, i was never pressured and there were no conditions being imposed. four days later on october 10th, president ze

call for introductions. first up for roll call for introductions today, supervisor mandelman. manai thank y >> can you, madam clerk. >> earlier today, house speaker nancy pelosi introduced articles of impeachment to impeach president donald john trump. donald trump solicited the interference of a foreign government to influence the 2020 united states presidential election and in so doing, used the powers of the presidency in a manner that compromised the national security of the united states and undermined the integrity of the united states democratic process. his actions have undermined our security and threatened our 2020 elections and violated his oath of office. as elected officials, each of us took an oath to uphold in true faith the constitution of the united states of america. the constitution provides the house of representatives the sole power of impeachment and provides that the president shall be removed from office on impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery or other high crimes and mi

what did happen is a call where sondland calls up trump at 5:00 a.m. and says, what do you want from ukraine? or as he put it -- he added a four letter word to it. and then apparently the president tells him, i want nothing. no quid pro quo, i want nothing. i want zelensky to do the right thing. >> in fact as you lay out, there's a phone call that definitely happened on september 7th, that multiple witnesses testified to, were deposed, discussed in their depositions. and so you are making the case here based on descriptions that actually match sort of what sondland was saying in this call. this may be the same call, why is that significant? >> the no quid pro quo part. and house republicans seized on that. but we have testimony from both the nsc's tim morrison and also ambassador bill taylor, we're told about this call the day it happened. you have trump talking to sondland and then sondland calls morrison. the president said, he wants no quid pro quo, but he wants president zelensky to go to the microphone and announce investigations. and we have the

stay away from any downed wire, call 911 and call pg&e right after so we can both respond out and keep the public safe. >>> tonight the house speaker nancy pelosi will take questions at a cnn town hall event in washington just hours after announcing the democrats are moving forward with articles of impeachment against the president. jake tapper will be the moderator. tensions are pretty high right now when she was asked a question at the end of her news conference about hating the president and she was really angry. >> for one thing, she's an be on servant catholic and the catholic dogma teaches that hating is a sin and she's gone out of her way to say constantly that she prays for president trump and her larger point is a cogent one is that impeaching president trump is not a small thing and nerve-racking for a lot of democrats and not to mention republicans and the president and tensions are running high. we have no idea what the impact of this will be on the makeup of the house and whether or not this actually helps to get president trump re-elected. >> she said this is strictly abo

he was someone on the call. -- invoked tim morrison. he was on the call. mr. morrison said that the goldman,was, by mr. you heard the call, you recognize president trump was not discussing the talking points at the nsc had prepared based on u.s. policy and was instead of talking about the investigations that fiona hill had warned you about. you reported it immediately to the nsc legal advisor. events?the correct mr. morrison said, that is correct. goldman, before your presentation, we show the testimony of ms. hill where she referred to what the president was trying to do as running a domestic political errand. is that what you intended to ask esther morrison? mr. goldman: yes. it was about the investigations president trump ultimately did discuss and asked president zelensky to do. these are the same investigations that were discussed and the only two investigations at issue throughout the entirety of the scheme. what our evidence found was any time there was a reference to investigations, it reference to the joe biden investigation and 2016 investigation. wh

the phone call that was perfect. the perfect phone call. i made a perfect call. not a good call. perfect call. in fact a friend of mine who was a great lawyer said, did you know this would be the subject of all of this scrutiny because the way you expressed yourself, this was like a perfect call. it was a perfect call. in fact it was two perfect calls. a perfect phone call. an absolutely perfect call. >> the thing is, however, we keep learning new details surrounding that july 25th phone call that the president has repeatedly called perfect with ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky. "the washington post" reports 29 times in the past three months, president trump has used twitter to implore the country to read the rough transcript of his july 25th call. the president has also instructed his gop allies to use a similar defense, writing on twitter back in november, the call to the ukrainian president was perfect. read the transcript. there was nothing said that was in any way wrong. republicans, don't be led into the fool's trap of saying it was not perfect but is not impeachable.

morrison, listened in on the phone call. he testified that he was not concerned that anything discussed on the phone call was illegal or improper. is that correct? >> yeah. he was worried about leaks. >> several democrat witnesses testified that it is fairly common for foreign aid to be paused for various reasons, including concerns that the country is corrupt and taxpayer dollars may be misspent. ambassador volker testified that this hold on security assistance to ukraine was not significant. is that correct? >>ni yes. a number of witnesses also said the same thing. >> for -- former u.s. ambassador to ukraine, marie yovanovitch, testified thattc in ukraine, ani quote, corruption is not just prevalent but, frankly, is the system. is that correct? >> yes.he all the witnesses confirmed the environment is very corrupt. >> mr. castor, ukraine energy company burisma holdings had a reputation in ukraine as a corrupt company. is that correct? >> big time. >> according to "new york times," hunter biden was part of a broad effort by

role call? call the role. >> mr. nadler? >> aye. >> ms. lofgrin. >> aye. >> so they're doing another role call, jeffrey toobin. this time whether to take a little recess surprising. usually the chairman can just say let's take a little break and we'll resume in a few minutes but this time they're doing a formal role call again. >> this is a metaphor about how you can fight about absolutely everything. but it certainly does seem like they will take a break at some point soon since the democrats have the majority, it looks like they will push through the recess. >> it's a fore gone conclusion. democrats have the majority. they will win. they'll take a break right now. let's talk right now about what we just heard. we heard a very, very powerful statement from daniel goldman on intelligence making the case that the president of the united states abused his power and should be impeached. >> an extremely dense and fact-based summary of the evidence that the intelligence committee heard. i just like to make one observation about this. i know it'

his call was anything, but perfect. >> from the get go, the republicans blasted the hearing and the entire process. >> this is not an impeachment and this is simply a railroad job. >> you are observing the right to be on yekt. >> gop interrupting and delaying the proceedings with procedural maneuvers. >> may i make a parliamentary inquiry. >> while chairman nadler previewed possible articles of impeachment which may include obstruction of justice going back to the mueller probe. >> president trump took extraordinary and unprecedented steps to obstruct the investigation including ignoring subpoenas, ordering the creation of false records, and publicly attacking and intimidating witnesses. this administration's level of obstruction is without precedent. >> the experts drew on history, repeatedly making the case that the country was founded on principles opposing absolute power. >> so kings could do no wrong because the king's word was law and contrary to what president trump has said, article 2 does not give him the power

the call was a perfect call. it was a perfect call. perfect call had a perfect phone call with the president of ukraine like, i mean, perfect. the call was a perfect call. the conversation was, i think, a perfect conversation that call was perfect. >> seth: i think he's trying to drive us all insane. [ laughter ] hearing -- hearing a grown man describe a phone call as perfect over and over and over again feels like an elaborate form of torture. i feel like i should be strapped to a chair in a basement with voices whispering from the shadows. >> the call was perfect. >> it was a perfect call >> it was perfect. >> the call was perfect. >> it was a perfect conversation >> it was a perfect call >> seth: all right, i'll tell you what you want to know! just stop calling a phone call perfect. nobody says that [ light laughter ] seriously, i'm almost certain that no one in the history of the english language has ever called a phone call perfect before think of the greatest phone call you've ever had in your life you've n

[roll call vote] [roll call continuing] [roll call continuing] [roll call continuing] >> has everyone voted? has everyone who voted wishes to vote. >> korea you are not recorded. >> i vote aye. >> anyone else wish to vote. >> 24 ayes, 17 no, sir. >> the ayes have it and the motion to table is agreed to. mr. goldman, you may begin. >> thank you, mr. chairman. chairman nadler, ranking member collins, members of the committee. we're here today because donald j. trump, the 45th president of the united states, abused the power of his office, the american presidency, for his political and personal benefit. president trump directed a months' long campaign to solicit foreign help in his 2020 reelection 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 reelection efforts. he applied this pressure himself and through his agents wo

1.23 spot 33 call. you sell that for $2.15 and buy the 1.25 calls for 1.45. net-net collect 70 cents on a spread that at the most could be worth $1.67. we can calculate approximately the likelihood in a normal circumstance that's going to end up in the money. this is a trade that will typically have a higher than even probability of profit why? because this makes money if ibb goes sideways, if it falls and even if it goes up a little bit. obviously the risk being it breaks out from here but we mitigate the risk of loss by buying the upside call. >> this is an interesting options trade. if you are looking for a stock guy or gal and saying that thing has 115 or 110 written all over on a pullback the next couple months you'd say option prices are relatively cheap i would look to make a 10% move to the downside and willing to risk maybe 2% or 3% to achieve that mike's trade is different. mike looks at the probability of success and saying to himself i have a pretty high probability of a small gain here and

five calls with giuliani in the space of 15 minutes. five calls. two days later, nunes has four calls with parnas, who has been charged with illegally funneling foreign donations to republicans in 2018. we don't know what was said on those calls. nunes has refused multiple requests for comment from cnn, including dodging a question from our very own manu raju. look. >> reporter: what is your reaction to being named in the report, sir? >> hmm? somebody say something? just kept walking. now, take a look at this. rudy giuliani's phone records for april 24th. see those highlighted calls there on the screen? they're all calls between giuliani and the white house, eight of them, on the very day ambassador yovanovitch was told to get on the next plane and get out of ukraine. you remember giuliani waged a public campaign against the ambassador. so the timing of all those calls is interesting to say the least. and speaking of the timing, the report indicates that house investigators got hold of those phone records in september. that was well before the publ

thank you for my calls. guest: it is one of the issues that democrats are still discussing now, the environmental aspect of this agreement. some of them were extreme asks, only extreme in the way that it was not likely to get through in a bipartisan way. some democrats were demanding language on climate change in the agreement, using that exact term. a lothe phrase we hear about isa lot of export pollution in mexico. host: give us your best guess for a timeline in congress to approve or disapprove the usmca. do you expect that to come in the last few weeks of 2020, or do you expect it before the presidential debate, the you expect it after the election? when do you expect an actual vote on this up or down from congress? guest: i would say up until the last couple of weeks, i thought they could still get it done this year, but just looking at the calendar, there's a lot of outstanding issues. mexico is pushing back on some of the demand. democrats are not fully on board. there's a legislative days on the cale

the substance of the call and the political nature of the call. >> and they reported the call, that they actually reported that to the internal legal channels. i placed colonel vindman's testimony about why he reported the call on the screen. am i correct that the call was based on the fact that the president was asking a foreign power to investigate a u.s. citizen? >> yes, and he was not the only witness to express that concern. >> am i correct that he reported this concern because he thought it was a sense of duty? a duty he felt something was wrong? >> as you know, lieutenant vindman was a purple heart winner from iraq, and he's been in the department of defense for 20 years. he has a great sense of duty and great patriotism to this country and felt compelled to follow that since of duty and report it. >> she testified as you brought out or was brought out earlier that it was unusual and inappropriate, is that correct? >> that's right. >> when vice president biden got involved with the european union and the imf and germany and france and said, you have to do something about corr

i've called before, i'm calling about the -- i'll stay on topic. i think what we should do is let the president do his job. no one negotiates like him. this guy's been negotiating with people all over the world for 40-plus years. and yet the establishment, including c-span, including most of your hosts, i've criticized you when i called the comment line, it's amazing how many times you want to cite to the "the washington post," "the new york times", yes, you did fox news today. yes, you did. good. keep doing it. saying that you've done multiple media sources, but 90%-plus of "the washington post" and "new york times" -- it doesn't mean you're quoting multiple media sources. host: what about the situation in north korea. let's stay on topic. caller: no one in north korea talks to the leader the way he does. probably no one in any other country. donald trump has been successful negotiating that way his entire life. so far he's done a pretty damn good job, i think, in everything he's done. so let him do his job. now, history will judge him. if it turn

we call it a home. some presidents called a house, some presidents called it watch most and a house i will say but we love the white house. it is a special place and our country's a special country and i just want to thank you, you gotta come down to, mingle will have a good time tonight but happy new, year merry christmas, happy hanukkah, are going to have a fantastic year. we're going to have the best year we have had in many decades this is, we are set up for one great big beautiful success. thank you all for being here, thank you for being with us thank you for being with us. thank you.. >> and that was a little bit earlier in the evening and then at 10:43 pm, or 10:53 pm eastern time, the president tweeted this out. nancy pelosi just got duped in an interview to admitting that she has been working on impeaching me for two and a half years. in other, words she lied. this is the radical left do-nothing democrats plan all along, long before the ukraine phone call impeachment hoax. salvador is in state

some people might say maybe they were too many calls. there's rift raft on these calls. the president of the united states calls a leader of another country whether it's boris johnson or mr. zelensky. privacy is defined differently when you're the president. who is usually on these calls as a matter of american protocol? >> it's going to depend on what the nature of the call is. if there's a covert operation you want to alert a leader to that would be different than some diplomatic talk. every conversation should be in the national interest. if it's in the national interest, rather than the president's interest, then you would want more people on for the following reasons. one is the national security staff and the national security council serves as the connective tissue for what was agreed upon. secondly, you want to have a memorialization of what happened so you want people on the call who are not involved in theasse leaders action was. what was agreed to so there can be after actions or action plan for the agencies. that is assuming the call is in the national intere

that call will then expire worthless. that leaves us just net long this march 350 call. we're long that call outright. we're long it at a net cost of $2.70. so what wed paid for the spread. and we have absolute upside potential. unadulterated upside potential because now after the february expiration we are just long the call long at $2.70. so that's our cost that's our max risk. >> all right good stuff, scott nations. tony, a comment, thoughting with criticism. >> agree, disagree. >> i agree with this trade very much netflix just got above the 200 day moving average this week i think it's supportive of the stock moving higher. however i think the fact -- the trade is very smart because it risks less than 1% of the underlying stock price to effectively bet the stock moves higher after earnings in late january into february up to 350 level. i'm bullish on the stock but don't think the stock is running to 360, 370. having the 350 cap is smart risks less than 1% great trade. >> good trade. i guess that's the buy if we were doing the other game up next it's been difficult ti

click, call or visit a store today. >>> ambassador to the eu gordon sondland testified about a call where president trump apparently said he wants no quid pro quo. well, the president claims this vindicates him in the impeachment inquiry. the question is did it actually happen? i want you to take a listen to sondland's testimony and how the president ran with it. >> he said, i want nothing. i want no quid pro quo. i just want zelensky to do the right thing, to do what he ran on or words to that effect. i still cannot find a record of that call because the state department and the white house cannot locate it, but i'm pretty sure i had the call on that day. >> i say to the ambassador in response, i want nothing. i want nothing. i want no quid pro quo. tell zelensky, president zelensky, to do the right thing. >> hmm, he had to read that. interesting. president trump isn't the only one clinging to that line of testimony. here are his republican defenders. >> on september 9th and most importantly reading from your deposition, you called president trump to ask him what do you want from ukraine

i hate when people call it a transcript or manuscript, it's not actually the verbatim phone call. from what i learned today, if you listen to both sides of the scholars, they were setting a president for understanding the constitution of moving forward with what we can move forward to. i wish the democrats asked turley more questions and in colorado i think neguse was the only democrat that was asked any question. if you listen to what he was saying, as of right now it's not an impeachable offense and i think what he's saying is that until we get mulvaney, pompeo, giuliani and mcgahn to testify, then we won't have any of these facts because they have set a barrier amount ruled those people. unless those people are going to testify and give the truth under oath, then really there are no facts and both are right. those people are the ones holding all the answers to all the questions and leads to the doors and a locks that we know. you could compared to el chapo, everyone agrees el chapo should have been prosecuted but it's a very long time to bring about the witnesses. >> thanks dan

we see in the call logs in a nunes takes calls from rudy giuliani going back as far as april, he takes a longer phone call from left are pv parnas. and nunes has not talked about any of this, he is programs the single unfriendliest member of congress when it comes to nonfox news reporters on capitol hill. i don't think that he has taken a question from me since i've been up here. but we'll keep trying. he also has a frosty would be an understatement relationship with chairman schiff. i don't think i saw the two of them make eye contact. but he also has gotten very close to the white house on a number of issues before even to the point where he touched the hot stove. remember, during the house intel committee's russia investigation, he had to take a step back from that after it was revealed that he had been at the white house a lot of people thought back channeling with the white house on what the committee was up to. so once again he is at the center of this. he has alluded to this saying all of it will come out in time, that he might be suing people, he is litigious for coverage that

february 140 calls to close. and they used the proceeds of 6,005 cents or so to buy six fur of march 1.45 calls. breaking even at february expiration they sold the january call rolled them up and out a month and playing for a brokeout of the 52-week highs. i think that's interesting because i think you want to go to the carts and talk about this this is the range, the 55-week high the stock is up 11% on the year. that's incorporated in in move over the last month and a half or so. obviously bouncing off support in the 125, 126 area this fall but lets go to the five-year chart. this has been in the wedge paternity here constructive clarity you had the move here this is about $145 this is why this trader takes this position in the money now all of the sudden in the last week and rolling it out moont and up a little bit. playing for possibly a breakout. this is about $150 if you believe the valuations story this is the sort of name that if you do have some of the headwinds, the regulatory stuff out of the which, the

it's called the starr report. they could go through it and then they could look at all the evidence was all there. we had to hire a u-haul truck to send it up. they had the opportunity to go through it and determine if were going to release this information to the public and so forth. what happened here was the cart was way before the horse. first of all there was no special counsel or investigation. there was no staff investigation. there was no equivalent or counterpart for the senate select committee on watergate which was so effective in doing what, not in the kind of speech a finding that has gone on here for the past three months, but actually finding fax. the select committee could have been volunteer. all were very concerned about, the ukraine phone call, let's form a committee to explore this in them will determine if we can get to testimony of the people and administration, et cetera. none of that was done. let's just send it to the house intelligence committee, to adam schiff, let him use his judgment,

there are calls from rudy giuliani and sondland. sondland makes calls to the white house. trrgs after those two calls, totaling 20 minutes to the white house, he then texts curt volker and says potus real a wants the deliverable, which he said in testimony meant the announcement of those investigations. that is donald trump drelkt directsing and that is hard evidence and is there has been no rebuttal to that. >> thanks for getting up way too early to talk to us on live television. is there any way to measure was this worse than what was expected? if for no other reason, the presence of these phone logs, which are hard to explain away as mayau noted. >> i think that is a new twist that the white house and the president's advisors weren't necessarily expecting. because i will note the white house has been in the dark on this process because they've not been cooperating. they've refused to participate in this event. so that means their lawyers don't have access to what the witnesses are happeneding over. that could come as a surprise. the idea the president's personal lawyer,

three were called by the democrats. harvard law professor noah feldman, stanford professor pamela karlan, michael gerhardt and one was called by republicans, george washington university professor jonathan turley. they conducted the best version really of the debate about what the constitution requires, what it means to live in a democratic republic. the three democratic witnesses agreed that when the person entrusted with the most amount of power, the president of the united states, has forfeited that trust to such a degree by abusing his office, the extraordinary remedy of impeachment is not just available but necessary. you need to do it. >> president trump's conduct as described in the testimony and evidence clearly constitutes impeachable high crimes and misdemeanors under the constitution. the words "abuse of office" are not mystical or magical. they are very clear. the abuse of office occurs when the president uses a feature of his power, the awesome power of his office, not to serve the interests of the american

it is more than a phone call. everyone comments it is just a phone call, but it is withh olding of the funds, the denigration of the ambassador that was right all he working through anticorruption measures in ukraine -- he worked to get that woman's job eliminated and tarnished during the process. and people. i do not understand how there is one single individual that of the understand -- that doesn't understand that he shouldn't be impeached -- that he should be impeached and removed from ce.i those two callers were very disappointing, very uninformed about what the power of the presidency is. remember, we as an independent country left a monarchy left so we could have -- left a monarchy so we could have a constitutional republic. so we could substitute the constitution for a king, and trump is overrunning all of that. that should horrify all american citizens. thank you. gary, calling to from sterling, virginia on the republican line. good morning. caller: thank you. good morning jesse, i don't believe i've ever
