i'd like to hear shifty schiff, and i'm like to hear hunter biden and joe biden. >> and the problem is that the president is attempting to block damaging witnesses like john bolton, former house security adviser and others want to hear the testimony. others are saying that nancy pelosi is right to delay the articles of impeachment over to the senate. >> some of the republicans are now beginning to say, maybe we need witnesses and documents. had nancy sent the stuff right over, and mcconnell moved to dismiss, who knows what would have happened. ♪ we are family >> reporter: other witnesses want to get in on the act, inclug lev pi including lev parnas who is an indicted associate of rudy giuliani, and he sent out these photos of trump family members with the #let leshgsevspelevspe >> and then rudy giuliani is saying that he wants to do what he does best. >> i would love to try the case. i don't know if anybody has courage to give me the case. >> and the president is never going to have him in the senate trial, and starting with the problem that he is a potential witness. and a new poten

joe biden -- and this is why i am caucusing for joe biden, and i will stand with joe biden in a matter what. joe biden made it possible that didn't have to worry about my family if i but the ultimate prize in my job. he sought to what that families of those that lost their lives in my line of work, that their families were taking care of, and that is so important. family is number one in life. it never one thing my second family is my firefighters brothers and sisters. these guys have my back at all times. i don't know if you really understand that on a lot of, days we are called into some, very very bad situations. your worst days, and we see them again and again and environments that not good for us health wise and not good for us as far as being a dangerous situations. we face them almost daily. these guys have our backs. i back. i have their back. we practice what we call to win two out. when we go into a, fire there's two of us that go in there to rescue you and do the things that we need to do, to put your profiting get you out of that burning structure. there is two guys outside

jill biden is the life of candidate joe biden. rallyingd supporters and volunteers as they headed out canvassing for votes the last few days ahead of the 2020 presidential caucuses. >> i'm a teacher. i'm always on time. yay teachers. akshay: everyone, thank you, all, for coming today. thank you for coming to see dr. biden. it's so exciting. before she comes up and blows us all away, i want to introduce myself. i'm one of the organizers here in cedar rapids. real quickly, i am kind of shocked i'm here standing in front of her. this wasn't really supposed to happen. i mean, a month ago sitting in a corporate office in los angeles just typing away on a computer for eight hours a day. i got an email all of a sudden. within five hours of that email, i quit my job and leased my apartment and came here to iowa. mrs. biden: wow! hey! [applause] akshay: it was awesome. i'm so happy to be here. i came out here, not because it's glamorous to knock on doors for eight hours a day and call all of you - mrs. biden: in minus four degrees, right?

which is voters aren't going out to see joe biden because they already know joe biden. he's not new. why go see joe biden? pete buttigieg is new and people want to get a look at him. right? the other potential argument is pete buttigieg just is better organized here than joe biden. a lot of people believe that. the question is, on caucus night, if it comes to kind of reliable caucusgoers, the people who normally always go, there's no question joe biden's got a lead amongst those people. the unknown is, is pete buttigieg with all this money and organizes strength here, is he going to bring a bunch of new people into the caucus? that's what barack obama did in 2008. if that happens on caucus night next week and it's a huge turnout, it's almost certain that a giant turnout will benefit pete buttigieg and elizabeth warren on the other side more than benefit the guys who seem to be leading and that's joe biden and bernie sanders. >> it's going to be fascinating. and karine, an attempt at over thinking this. i wonder if -- i mean, the trump campaign cannot be so stupid as to

joe biden is going to change the fate of joe biden. joe biden is either going to win iowa and new hampshire or do really, really well in those two and have momentum going into the two states he's stronger and into super tuesday only three days after south carolina or not do well there. in which case there needs to be a viable centrist alternative to try to stop bernie sanders. that's the role mike bloomberg sees himself as playing. whether we get to a brokered convention, someone gets majority, that's uncharted waters. see what happens. most important, over 30% of delegates will be selected on super tuesday. if we democrats don't have a viable centrist candidate going into that then the sanders train could become unstoppable. that is the theory of the case. >> phil, we know -- >> if that happens the democratic party will erupt into a civil war like we have never seen. bernie sanders supporters are going to completely lose it. you thought 2016 was bad versus hillary, forget it under th scenario. >> we know the president loves to play, d

joe biden is in the middle. i am a deer hunter and i don't believe in gun control for some things need to have stipulations on them. i think that he will handle iran different. he is more of a diplomat than the rest of them. i think he is for the worker. socialisticr the type or promoting like bernie sanders and elizabeth warren. i think they are living in policies that do not represent what this country stands for. i think joe biden is a very good diplomat. he is more in the middle-of-the-road. i don't know if you remember the reagan democrats that voted for reagan but they were democrats. they were conservative. joe biden relates i am a steelworker. i think he relates to the common worker more. would beis best chance the experience he has dealing with people on both sides. he believes in some things, i am a member of the nra and i am against assault weapons. he is not out here trying to totally take the second amendment. i am an avid deer hunter. prospect of in the people who need especially the experience he

you have several reasons you support joe biden. let's start with the big one, which is electability. >> he's very electable in a way the rest of the field is not. i don't know what i would do soe of sanders versus trump. i don't know what i would do with that, but it's clear to me biden and mcconnell can work together. they could work together on trade, on immigration, on major economic issues that big business is interested in reasserting its influence in the republican party. i think it's a good thing all around. >> because trump doesn't have a characteristically republican view on trade, so you think he's vulnerable. >> let's be honest, he wasn't a republican until his 70s ch. that's a part of this here. and the populous part of the republican party now is distasteful to me as a libertarian, it's distasteable to the business community. i think it's a whole different ball game of biden and mcconnell working together. >> why do you think that biden mcconnell could be a key to like an immigration deal? >> a lot of presidents have t

it cuts both ways or does it favor joe biden? >> i think it cuts both ways and i think that iowa especially, though i would argue every single campaign any candidate is in, so much about it is about the ground game. that's what this is now. we call it gotv in the business, which is getting out the vote. it's identifying your voters, getting them to the polls, knocking on doors. the ground game is extremely important. otherwise democrats are very divided oaf who they really wa want. >> adrian, it was interesting to see that commercial, that digital add that invoked president obama's words and that's the message joe biden wants everyone to know, that he is part of the obama era, for good or for bad, for in the primary stage good. i'm curious to get your thoughts about how far the party has moved to the left because it's joe biden and mayor pete buttigieg cored nsidered to be moderat moderates. >> if you listened to social media, would you think it's the entire the democratic party are to the left. but just like maya said, this real

joe biden gave himself away. there is much to dissect in this but he immediately thought the guy was a bernie sanders -- i know. >> harris: any set i'm voting for tom steyer but i would vote for you in the election come in the general if you make it through. >> chris: it is him and tom, i guess. >> melissa: dagen is so right. he gave away his weakness. he said are you of bernie sanders supporters? speak to trick us before we all know it's biden and bernie at the top. >> harris: we have an abbreviated "outnumbered" because of our coverage of the impeachment trial continues at the bottom of the hour. "the new york times" reporting biden officials floated the idea of forming an alliance with amy klobuchar when they get to iowa. "the two campaigns could encourage their supporters in the state to back the other candidate in precincts where they fall short of the 50% threshold required to reach the second round of balloting." but amy klobuchar is reportedly not interested. chris. >> chris: what do they think the voters

are there are a lot of people on my side who want to call joe biden and hunter biden. i want to end this thing sooner, rather than later. i don't want to turn it into a circus. i think schumer said yesterday we are not willing to trade a joe biden for anybody. i think i know why. i want the american people to pick the next president, not me. and so what i think is the best thing to have happen is to have oversight of ukrainian potential misconduct and move on to the election. i am not going to move my vote to extend the trial. speak of the republicans have said that they heard nothing new in the opening arguments -- allowing for new evidence and witnesses. >> they say that i have enough to make their case. so, hearing from john bolton, the national security advisor of the present, they chose not to seek him. i would argue that if i were president and you wanted to call my national security advisor, i would probably invoke privilege. but the one thing i can tell you is that we don't want to start a process where you can do impeachment in the house in 48 days, shot legal

biden: so do you know what joe biden's education plan says? he says, number one, we'll triple the funding for title 1 schools, for the schools that need it, that the money will go to the teachers and resources. what does that mean? it's going to double the number of psychologists and counsellors who are in the schools. i am a teacher. i have been fighting for mental health in our schools. our kids are coming, they're bringing poverty, food insecurity, domestic violence. they need help. not only that, the teachers are saying to me, jill, it's too much. we're trying to teach english or social studies. our kids are coming to us because there's nobody at home. they're working two and three jobs. they come to us because they trust us. isn't that right? don't you feel that? >> oh, yes. mrs. biden: so one of the things joe is going to work on is mental health in rural communities. can i tell you right here in iowa, three days ago, i had a woman come up to me privately and she said, jill, your husband has to work on climate change. i said, of course.

and that is where joe biden will deliver. like i said, there are many great candidates in our primary with far-reaching ideas, but the plain fact is that there are many democrats and independents in other states across our nation who will not support what they see as pie-in-the-sky candidates when it comes to the general election. these big ideas could cost us the white house. the democratic party needs to be able to win the general election for all is lost. i'm going to say that again. the democratic nominee needs to be able to win the general election, or all is lost. and that's why we need to nominate joe biden here he's a leader who can unite the democratic party. he's a leader who can unite the entire nation. joe biden can walk onto the job on day one and begin to heal our shattered homeland and restore our nations standing in the world. we need joe biden. i wholeheartedly support him and i ask that you do as well. and now i am honored to introduce to you the next president of united states, joe biden.

he only cares because of joe biden. because he is trying to protect his own electoral interest, and that is exactly what alan dershowitz said. he said if it is in the national interest -- are you comfortable with that, david? do you think asking -- >> david: do you believe the founding fathers set up impeachment over a campaign finance violation? that is exactly -- then what law was broken? >> jessica: what law? that he took aid, that he got help in his -- >> jessica: that he put his personal interest over the interests of the nation. you could make the argument, of course, that it is in the national security interest to find out if another foreign power met over an election. it is a national security interest of the person running for president is corrupt. those are international security interest. this is not the first time that it has been frozen, reviewed, or canceled. the legal team has pointed out several interest. the northern triangle countries. that is not a new concept. to >> jessica: where any of the people t

joe biden, hunter biden. but the principle of all of this. senator schumer, you want to know why you have got no good witnesses? because your buddies smif * and nancy pelosi -- your buddies adam schiff and nancy pelosi never bothered their jobs. they are arguing obstruction of congress when there is no requirement the president turn anything over to nancy just because she asked for it. we have the opposite. it's called separation of powers. if the house wasn't so lazy or political, they would have taken their request for witnesses teen actual judge. then they might have had a leg to stand on in the ole obstruction thing. but they didn't do that. and who is to say whether the president would have resisted it. but they wanted to make this a schiff show. now, you want to redo with witnesses. it ain't going to happen. schumer can't help but insult the very jury he's trying to appeal to. that's how you know he does not care. he doesn't care about outcome. he only cares about how he will campaign. and any possible sympathizers he may have had, they

it was it strictly about burisma, which included hunter biden and joe biden. >> it's all about the bidens. it was never about corruption. strictly about joe biden, hunter biden. in terms of the involvement of the president here, mr. parnas went out of his way to note, to assert that not only was president trump aware of what he and mr. giuliani were doing on his behalf in ukraine trying to gin up this investigation to hurt joe biden, mr. parnas says that the fact that he was working for president trump is a point that was made explicitly over and over again in a very formal way in his dealings, in his meetings in ukraine. >> your attorney told the federal court in new york that you were both rudy giuliani's clients and you were working for mr. giuliani in his capacity as personal attorney to the president. >> correct. >> which, by the transitive property, makes it seem like you were working for the president as part of this legal defense. >> yes, absolutely. >> did anybody in the u.s. government or rudy giuliani actually convey to officials in ukraine you that were there as representative

joe biden threatened-- joe biden, vice-president. united states and we just saw a video which would encourage every news outlet to actually show the video of joe biden bragging how he told the president of ukraine he was going to cut off a billion dollars, he was going to block a billion dollars in foreign aid to ukraine unless they fired the prosecutor and in joe biden's own words, sonofabitch, they fired the guy. >> you said you'd answer the question, so-- >> hold on, hold on. >> i'm sorry, let him answer the question. >> i did ask the question-- >> i guess that the press moves to obsess over the latest bombshell. listen, i don't know what john bolton's book says or doesn't say. i've seen the new york times coverage, but at the end of the day, it doesn't impact the legal issue before this senate. the legal issue before this senate is whether a president has the authority to investigate corruption. so the house managers built their entire case on the proposition that investigating burisma skrupgs... we have just seen two hours of ev

biden: life will get better with joe biden, i promise you. life with joe biden will get better. thank you for working for us. >> thank you. dr. biden: thank you. hello, how are you? >> i am so glad that you are campaigning. i wanted to say that the situation last night really made me understand why i was voting for joe for sure. i think his history makes them stand out from the other candidates. dr. biden: the experience, yep. >> that is one of my major concerns. dr. biden: he is ready day one. thank you. [laughter] >> i am a retired nurse, and i will go state to state if needed. dr. biden: oh, thank you! thank you. >> i will do that. dr. biden: i am counting on you. thank you. >> i will be there. thank you. dr. biden: hello, how are you? >> and you deserve to be first lady. dr. biden: thank you. >> i was working for the barack obama reelection campaign, and i was working for the bidens. he is the best candidate. dr. biden: thank you for coming. >> thank you so much. dr. biden: thank you. hi! hello, how are you? my family wanted me to be a lawyer or go into banking. i know that

if you back a statist like joe biden, shouldn't you be surprised by joe biden? speaker democrats, independence, some republicans look at joe biden and their reaction is, maybe somebody can be in the white house who doesn't say crazy things or do crazy things or looking at twitter 24/7 because we are afraid of war or conflict or something like that. the credit card stuff aside, i'm happy to talk about it -- >> tucker: wait, are you making the case you should vote for biden because he doesn't say crazy things, mr. clean and articulate guy? >> biden, as you know, tucker, joe biden says do not compare me to the almighty, could marry me to the alternative. he's going to be running against a guy who cannot pronounce the words "origins" or "anonymous." i'm prepared to take my chances. >> tucker: this is a sincere question expect he was literally a shell for the credit card companies based in delaware. he was one of the forces behind the bank received a bill that shafted a lot of people in the middle class. in the moment when people are yearning for populist economics,

attacking joe biden? attacking joe biden? it's not so foreign thing that looks like something that we've been fighting in the war on terror. it's actually fundamentally as american as anything. and it is an existential threat to the multi-racial, pluralistic and equal and open democracy that we've been fighting for in this country since people died on the battlefield in a civil war. battlefield in a civil war. >>> the growing fracture between elizabeth warren and bernie sanders is beneficial for joe biden. the press is on for a strategy he's employed since this primary began framing the race as him versus trump. instead of him versus the field. that is the spirit of biden's new ad out today. >> donald trump has made it clear -- >> joe biden. >> biden -- >> he has joe biden on his mind. because trump knows biden will beat him in pennsylvania, michigan and wisconsin. the state's we need to take back the presidency. joe biden stood on the world stage, helped make obamacare the law of the land and could step

i don't know if this is going to hurt joe biden. i think it may help joe biden. being smeared or being the center of this international controversy where the president is being impeached over it and then using the floor of the senate to go after biden, i think that may rally caucusgoers around it. we won't know until monday, but i think they've miscalculated. and it was just -- it showed what they're really about. >> i can tell you one thing i want to buy tickets to that beer you're going to have with paul talking about the clinton impeachment. that is something i would like to see. >> we will certainly send you the tab. >> thank you, gentlemen. thank you very much. >>> coming up, new details about what happened in the minutes just before the helicopter crash that killed kobe bryant. we have the latest in the investigation for you next. you always want to be able to deliver relief for your patients. get them out of pain, get them out of pain fast. we have a new product out there: sensodyne rapid relief. if you use it on monday, by thursday, you'll be enjoying tha

[applause]. >> hey everyone, who'sexcited for doctor biden ? thank you so much for coming, we really appreciate your support . i'm a local organizer here in nashua. for the past four years of my life in college i've witnessed my best friends question there were because their views of users push them around or posted naked photos of themonline . arour current administration proposed weakening title ix policies because attitude that disrespect women have been normalized to the person who holds thehighest position of power in our country . that's why it's so crucial that we elect a leader like joe biden who's been a pioneer for justice and thought toempower those who are vulnerable through the violence against women act . we all have a duty to empower our fellow americans and joe biden will restore the soul of our nation,

joe biden is starting to worry. and bernie's surge can be very problematic for those in the center who want to take out trump. the. trish: it's amazing that we are even talking about it. how screwed up is hat? kennedy: and they are buying it. trish: cdc confirming the first human-to-human transmission of the coronavirus here in the united states as the world health organization declared a public health emergency. can it be time for a china travel ban? the administration is thinking about it. we are talking about it after this. i'm your mother in law. and i like to question your every move. like this left turn. it's the next one. you always drive this slow? how did you make someone i love? that must be why you're always so late. i do not speed. and that's saving me cash with drivewise. my son, he did say that you were the safe option. and that's the nicest thing you ever said to me. so get allstate. stop bossing. where good drivers save 40% for avoiding mayhem, like me. this is my son's favorite color, you should try

the opposite for joe biden. younger you get, when you start at 18 years old, biden getting blown out. older you get, you get to 65 plus, that's where biden's sweet spot is, a mirror image, opposites of each other, biden and sanders in terms of support. one of the questions with the iowa caucus, such a clichÉ to say it is all about the turnout, who shows up to vote, but the caucus is being different from a primary, having to commit to a couple hours at a public meeting, publicly declaring a preference, you tend to see turnout lower in caucus than primary, a different more specific type of voters turning out in caucuses. expectation that the caucus number will be higher this year than ever before. there's a question whether that gives sanders a leg up, and you look at the iowa polls, a couple new ones out of new hampshire, one had sanders up double digits. i have been talking about this for months, possibility for him or anyone putting together what's been a powerful combination in democratic primary politics thr

clearly to help joe biden. i don't think was any question to help joe biden. you had to sit there because -- so what did they do? they sit there and tried to defend joe biden yesterday. .. the establishment trying to help joe biden. they say that joe biden, it is okay for him to get rid of a prosecutor, but for a president to get rid of an ambassador is somehow sinister. >> you learn more about it. i have been appear for a year. everybody says it is a very complex place. there's a lot of corruption going on. [inaudible] >> we are learning more about that. we will see their rebuttal tomorrow. we have another day to say the same thing again. we will find out in the next few days what the president's plan was. >> did something change to convince president trump? >> we will find out. >> we will find out. >> you don't want to hear the same thing over and over again. new witnesses and documents. >> we will have a fair trial. this is the houses decision. they decided not to subpoena john bolton. they rushed this through and then put it on our lap. a very partisan man

biden, possibly for pete buttigieg, but mostly joe biden. people want to turn to a reassuring figure in a time such as this. these are not ordinary times. if you look at all these polls, you're seeing as candidates drop out of the race, a near 50/50 split between the liberal idealists or bernie sanders or elizabeth warren and then those who believe the democrats need to reach out to moderate swing voters. that's why people are behind biden even if they're not enthusiastic about him. buttigieg, amy klobuchar to some extent. it's hard to see a bernie sanders supporter being persuaded to move away from him for any reason. they haven't done so so far so they probably would not do so in this crisis. knowing the trump era, we'll be talking about an entirely different crisis a week from now if not an hour from now. >> possibly, back in 2011 and 2012, president trump tweeted out several times that president obama would start a war in order to, quote, get elected. there's one of them there. now the question is whether president trump is using in stra

biden was part of that era. >> he was. >> has the era bypassed joe biden? >> i don't think so. >> iope not. >> it's still in there. mean, joe's a lovely -- not only a lovely person, but he was always a good legislator, inwo terms of how hed across the aisle, how he -- you have to remember, joe was there before john was, and john learned a great deal from joe. >> if you could be helpful to joe biden, would you? in the race? >> i'm trying to -- i'm gonna y to stay out of it just because it -- it's -- i -- i'm not -- i'm not the politician in the family. it's really ghan and her father that were. but -- so i'm gonna try to stay out of itbut i do -- i do like joe biden. he's a very good friend. he helped us through a verdark time. >> so, if you could be helpful, would you, at the right time? >> it depends. i mean, i struggle with -- it will turn out what kind of candidate he ends up being. you know, i still hope for the moderate, bipartisan joe. i think the question he will have to answer is, will he be pulled to the hard progressive left. i have my limitatis w

joe biden gets railed into a reason to testify here is joe biden. >> if you're the nominee is it going to be harder to run against president trump if he's acquitted and able to claim vindication after what he said about your family? >> it's irrelevant. there's no choice but to nancy pelosi and the house to move. he has in fact committed impeachable offenses. whether the senate makes that judgment or not it's for them to decide. and so it doesn't really matter whether or not he's gone after me. i've got to be in a position that i think about the american people. i can't hold a grudge. i have to be able to not only fight but also heal. and as president of the united states that's what i will attempt to do. >> you know, jonathan, the attacks on joe biden's family have been so deeply personal against his one remaining son. and for him to say i can't hold a grudge, i have to be able to not only fight but heal, i don't understand that answer. do you? >> no, i thought that was a really bad answer. he didn't have that bad of a debate and he very well might be the nominee but you've got to pros

when sanders' surrogate called joe biden corrupt in a op-ed and of course joe biden is corrupt. sanders didn't stand by her. instead, he apologized. >> joe biden is a friend of mine. i have known him for many, many years. he is a very decent guy. joe and i have strong disagreements on a number of issues. and would will argue those disagreements out. but, it is absolutely not my view that joe is corrupt in any way. >> tucker: what's your view on joe biden essentially taking bribes from the credit card company wrecking your snrif sanders didn't say. he folded. he did the same thing four years ago he refused to attack hillary clinton over email scandal. he gave her a pass. how did she repay him? by attacking sanders and his supporters as sexist. while suggesting that millions who back him are a bunch of, quote, nobodies. a journalist at the gray zone, one of our favorite guests joins us tonight. great to see you tonight. two things, do you think that sanders' recent rise and we will see if it sustains but it's real. is the result of the establishment on the democratic side coalesci

military aid to ukraine was being frozen until ukraine investigated joe biden. so will bolton be called as a witness? at times it was hard to tell who was on trial. president trump, or the bidens. the president's lawyers launching a full throated attack on joe biden and his son hunter. also tonight, remembering kobe bryant, the legend of the los angeles lakers. but first, president trump's impeachment trial. defense attorney alan dershowitz dismissing the report of the new bolton revelations of a quid pro quo. >> if a president, any president, were to have done what the "times" reported about the content of the bolton manuscript that would not constitute an impeachable offense. let me repeat nothing in the bolton revelations, even if true, would rise to the level of an abuse of power, or an impeachable offense. >> so joining me now, cnn's shimon prokupecz, also elie honig and timothy natally. elie, let's talk about dershowitz, saying even if bolton's manuscript is accurate, it's not an impeachable offense. >> no, how could it be okay for a president to do -- aga

biden is responding that we know that vladimir putin now sees joe biden as a threat, and any american president who had not repeatedly encouraged foreign interventions of this kind would immediately condemn this attack on the sovereignty of the elections. and we asked both russia and b r reece ma for comment, and they did not comment. a and they are accusing the u.s. government of not doing anything to protect the integrity of the elections. >> and this is not alone. >> no, we heard from the top elections person shelby pearson who said along with russia, you have china and north korea and others who are the hacktivists. >> and the spirit of those who are not saying anything about it today could be targets tomorrow. >> right. >> and you can see the cnn debate tonight in partner with "des moines register" only here on cnn at 9:00. and you can follow me on twitter or facebook or twitter. our coverage continues right now, and i will see you now, and i will see you tomorrow. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com iowa for the cnn democratic debate and the final debate for the contest of the

it was strictly about the burisma, which included hunter biden and joe biden. >> it's all about the bidens. it was never about corruption. strictly about joe biden, hunter biden. in terms of the involvement of the president here, mr. parnas went out of his way to note, to assert that not only was president trump aware of what he and mr. giuliani were doing on his behalf in ukraine trying to gin up this investigation to hurt joe biden, mr. parnas says that the fact that he was working for president trump is a point that was made explicitly over and over again in a very formal way in his dealings, in his meetings in ukraine. >> your attorney told the federal court in new york that you were both rudy giuliani's clients and you were working for mr. giuliani in his capacity as personal attorney to the president. >> correct. >> which, by the transitive property, makes it seem like you were working for the president of the united states as part of his legal defense. >> yes, absolutely. >> did anybody in the u.s. government or mr. giuliani actually convey to officials in ukraine you that were ther

joe biden and donald trump. and so if he can somehow manage to win even one of the first two states, it puts him in an incredibly strong position goin biden winning in the first of four states would be michael bloomberg. at that point most would rally around biden as the presumptive nominee. >> what do you think of the fight we saw in the last days between elizabeth warren and bernie sanders? it's ugly. elizabeth warren claiming bernie sanders said a woman couldn't win when they met in december of 2018. again, his campaign denies that. i heard a lot of progressives yesterday saying, guys, come on. eyes on the prize here. got to beat donald trump. can't tear each other to shreds with these interparty fights. what's the impact of them going at each other and as steve said, they needed to separate from each other but i think a lot of progressives said i wish they wouldn't do it on this. do it on an issue. not something as serious as a claim that a woman can't win and become president in this country jrchts the firs

in this case, potentially joe biden. this is what we talked about in the mueller report and now we're seeing it happen again. i hope that we do everything we can to keep all of that out of our elections and that's why it's so important for instance that we continue with this impeachment trial in a fair manner because at the end of the day it's about election interference. this time by ukraine or trying to -- donald trump getting ukraine to interfere but he might be inviting the russians to do so as well. >> congressman krishnamoorthi, i appreciate you being on with us and i hope you come back when we do know who the house impeachment managers are. we should note that house republican leadership you're looking live there at kevin mccarthy. so far much of the discussion has revolved around iran. if there's news on the impeachment we'll bring it live. we want to back to kasie hunt on the hill. i wanted to live with you for a moment in this. because the news is developing at a rapid clip and what else you're hearing and what

joe biden needs to be put in. was -- joe biden was vice president, he can be president. >> thank you. dr. biden: glad to hear that. hello. how are you? >> i have a question. , [inaudible] titian are -- i was a norton -- a nurse practitioner, and there were 2500 patients involved. and i do not know how to begin to advocate. dr. biden: did you talk to maggie hassan. >> no. dr. biden: you have to go and see her tomorrow, because that is a state problem and i should note -- and i know that she would help you. >> a little direction and i can take it from there. dr. biden: let us know how you are making out. anthony will give you his card and let us know. she is great and you will get the job. thank you. >> thank you. dr. biden: you are welcome. >> thank you. [laughter] dr. biden: hello, what is your name? >> becky. dr. biden: nice to see you. thank you for coming out. you have one? oh good. thank you for being here. hello. >> my name is jackie. dr. biden: how are you? >> good. so excited to meet you. dr. biden: thank y

he has a tremendous amount of respect for joe biden. he has always said he believes joe biden is a person of integrity. they have philosophical differences. he believes in medicare for all and opposed to war in iraq. and expand social security. it's fair to draw policy contrast. he said he doesn't want any supporters launching personal character attacks. >> do you think this trial hurts him on the campaign trail? he won't be out there. >> i don't. he's got a tremendous amount of surrogates and a ground game in iowa that's going to really propel him. and he has to do his duty. the politics are secondary. >> all right. congressman, thank you for your time. i appreciate it. >>> democrats storming iowa today with two weeks until votes are cast there. and two front runners in particular are going after each other. why are sanders and joe biden at odds? talk about it more, next. [alarm beeping] {tires screeching} {truck honking} (avo) life doesn't give you many second chances. but a subaru can. (dad) you guys ok? you alright? wow. (avo) eyesi

and hunter biden situation the headline reads joe biden, his son and the case against a ukrainian oligarch for the quote was incredibly of the vice president's anticorruption message may have been undermined by the association of his son hunter biden with one of ukraine's largest natural gas companies, burisma holdings, with people who are concerned about appearance of conflict, we wanted to correct that headline. shine is attending the task of isolating 3 cities with a combined population of 18 million people in order to stop the threat of the deadly virus. there is a confirmed case of the us and fears about more. ice as neil has more on the coronavirus. >> reporter: this is breaking in the last couple hours, 25-year-old woman was hospitalized in new jersey, doctors are still evaluating her. they haven't quite diagnosed are just yet. medics are monitoring 16 people with close contact with patient 0 as he's being called in washington state. those people have not developed the illness that are being watched. another suspected victim is in a california hospital, that patient arrived at lax f

joe biden is the strongest candidate to do it. he beats trump by the most nationally and the states we have to win. this is no time to take a risk. we need our strongest candidate. paul: we are back with dan henninger, kim strassel and kyle peterson, so kyle, you were out in iowa last weekend following joe around, does that ad mesh with his stump message? >> yeah, he talks about electability but he talks more about himself as anecdote and talks about when i first got in the senate in the 70's, republicans an democrats would fight like the devil and go downstairs and eat together at senate dining room and we need to get back to that. he presents himself assort of a centrist, he wants public option in health care, he doesn't want medicare for all which would cost $35 trillion he says, one of the difficulties with that, he's in the center while he himself has been pulled to the left. paul: in terms of the agenda? >> public option, for instance, you know, couldn't pass in 2010 when obama -- paul: even though democrats controlled both

joe biden was on the campaign trail talking about sexism in the 2016 election. what's going on between sanders and warren started out as a sanders supporters who were being instructed to attack warren supporters on the basis of being elites and he went to frame it like i am working class joke, not biden, but the proverbial joe, and warren is being backed by a bunch of college educated whites. >> melissa: is he right? >> jessica: if you look at the breakdown, she has a plenty of working-class support, he has more. the sanders supporters are famous for being horrible online trolls and really digging deep. these are people that said that hillary clinton was the other side of the coin of donald trump, made that direct comparison. >> melissa: i'm glad you brought up hillary clinton because her spokesperson was quick to land, saying "bernie blamed warren's staff in his initial statement calling them liars, when it now appears he was lying while shaming them. imagine if a female candidate had done the same, where the situation reversed. we would watch 14 new cycles abo

look at who joe biden might pick as his running mate. >> a lot of joe biden would consider choosing a republican is running mate? >> the answer is i would but i can't think of one right now. there are some decent republicans that are out there is still but here is the problem right now, the well-known ones, they've got to step up. >> michael bloomberg getting october this idea, quote, as president i will turn the east room into an open office where i will sit with our team, some official functions never tweeting but the rest of the time i will be where a leader should be, with the team. you like this? >> of all the ideas i have heard during the democratic primary, of all of them and i'm talking the craziest of the crazy i think this might be the worst of the ideas. no one in america, no human like an open floor plan. if you work at the company, we have some open floor plans here but you have to learn to get along with people. you need your space, fences make good neighbors, offices make good colleagues and the east room is for ceremonies, there is a history to the white house and we w

it is baseless and the defense team with the hunter and joe biden allowed to happen and in the ukraine and then it turns it into the atm machine. and there is media reports that have suggested the dnc staffer met with ukrainian officials. i don't know if that is true but if we are going to open this up to additional inquiry we will go down the road and then we would explore that and whether or not there is any credibility if the dnc is working with ukraine. >> while your vote to be? >> i will let you know friday but right now i feel comfortable with the idea i have enough. people think that you can deal with this it will not happen. i will make a prediction 51 republican votes to call hunter and joe biden and the whistleblower and the dnc staffer. >> i have said basically it would be wrong for president trump to raise this issue. the democratic misconduct does not matter not to believe the biden affair that media reports for the july 25th as much as i like joe biden he needs to answer questions of why he received millions of dollars from burisma when he knew that it was a conflict of i

lying about joe biden. now we know that vladimir putin also sees joe biden as a threat. i've reached out to multiple officials here at the white house, andrea, so far no response. but, again, as you say, that top dni election official did tell our ken dilanian that the u.s. is tracking the gru having activity including those efforts to hack into burisma. and as we are on the air right now, just moments ago, hillary clinton tweeted this, russians appear to be rerunning their 2016 hacking playbook once again to benefit donald trump. she goes on to ask a series of questions including will the russians help pick our potus again. she's already weighing in as we continue to drill down on specifically what may have happened here, andrea. >> kristen welker, thank you so much for that update. and joining me now is eric swalwell who serves on the intelligence and judiciary committees and was running for president yourself this year. first of all, what do you know about this recent report? >> not enough, andrea. that'
