tv Erin Burnett Out Front CNN October 4, 2019 4:00pm-5:00pm PDT
4:00 pm
cnn original series this weekend "declassified," untold stories of american spies with mike rogers at 9:00 p.m. eastern sunday nights followed by "this is life" with lisa ling sunday night. erin burnett out front starts right now. out front next had. breaking news. the white house just subpoenaed. democrats say the president's actions have left them no choice, the impeachment probe escalates tonight. plus make pence slamming a request for uk's documents from him. it doesn't appear to be serious. really? and the other breaking news this hour, doctors are revealing moments ago bernie sanders did have a heart attack. let's go out front. good evening. i'm erin burnett. out front tonight, the breaking news. president trump's white house up subpoena. house democrats issuing a subpoena to the white house moments ago. this is part of the impeachment
4:01 pm
inquiry. they say they're left with, quote, no choice after the white house refused to hand over documents related to trump and ukraine. this as congress this hour has obtained now documents in the whistle-blower complaint against president trump. the intelligence community inspector general deemed it both urgent and credible today, spent nearly seven hours behind closed doors on capitol hill. he gave documents showing how he worked to corroborate the whistle-blower complaint which, of course, alleges trump tried to get ukraine to dig up dirt on joe biden while he held up aid to the country. the story is moving at this hour. the big question now will trump order his team to defy a subpoena? because the president himself is defiant saying that all of this had nothing to do with joe biden. >> i don't care about biden's campaign, but i do care about corruption. his campaign, that's up to him. politics, that's up to him. i don't care about politics. >> well, we know he does care
4:02 pm
about biden a lot and goodness knows he cares about politics. first biden, trump mentioned him by name in the phone call with the ukrainian president multiple times specifically asking the ukrainian president to investigate even though it shows he didn't do anything wrong. he told congress in a newly released opens statement and we got it today and important to hear. i've known vice president biden for 24 years and that he would be influenced in his duties as vice president by money for his son simply has no credibility to me. i know him as a man of integrity and dedication to our country. we know trump cares about joe biden and one of the reasons we know is he singles him out for insults all the time. >> i'd rather run against i think biden than anybody. i think he's the weakest mentally. >> joe biden has truly lost his path. >> joe biden is not playing with a full deck.
4:03 pm
>> you look at a guy like sleepy joe biden. >> he brings him up all the time. he cares about joe biden and he cares about politics. nobody -- nobody cares about polls and who is up and who is down more than he? trump loves polls. >> we've got great poll numbers. our poll numbers are through the roof. >> every poll that i see and every poll that we have i'm winning by -- we're doing well. >> okay. trump's polls explain his obsession with joe biden. the most recent head to head matchup was a fox news poll, one the president would listen to. biden 52, trump, 38. quinnipiac, 54, trump, 38. and that is why trump cares so deeply about taking biden down. kaitlan collins is out front at the white house. the subpoena very significant. any response trt white house? have you heard anything yet?
4:04 pm
>> no. we reached out for comment and they haven't said anything. it just came out a short time ago and we should note the white house was expecting this. democrats signaled as much just a few days ago essentially saying they were sending a warning shot to the white house that they weren't messing around in this impeachment inquiry that they were pursuing and people back here at the white house have a different view of that. they've been arguing that not only are they going to keep their distance and they've been dismissive of these requests so far, but they say that's because democrats didn't vote to hold this formal impeachment inquiry. they're moving forward with nancy pelosi announced last week, but that is not the view here at the white house and that's why right now we've been in these discussions with the white house about this draft and letter that they're expected to send early next week is the time we're hearing and that's still unclear. basically, this letter that's going to dare the house speaker to bring a vote to the house floor to have her caucus vote on
4:05 pm
essentially, formally and officially doing this impeachment inquiry. the white house says they're not going to cooperate until they get that. right now they're still waiting on it. >> all rid. thank you very much, kaitlan. a showdown in the offing. denny hack, a member of the house commit. he was in the meeting with the inspector general. first, i want to start with the breaking news. the subpoena. obviously, there's a game of chicken and i don't mean to play light with it and this is escalating and it's a standoff. what happens if trump's white house defies you? >> so i think chairman schiff has made it abundantly clear that defiance of this act constitutes obstruction of a legitimate congressional inquiry and pursuit of impeachment and as a consequence of that we would assume or infer that he is not innocent of whatever it is that we're out to verify with the documentation. there's no other reason for him to withhold it, to hide it unless, of course, he's guilty. >> when does a vote happen and
4:06 pm
they're trying to say you have to do a vote before they do anything. what's your sense of when a vote would happen for actual articles of impeachment? >> we have some more work to do. we have some more people that we can add materially to our understanding of what went on here and we have several of them scheduled for next week and the former ambassador to ukraine is among them. we would hope that at some point we are able, while taking into account appropriate security precautions and an opportunity to talk to the whistle-blower himself or herself. so we have some more work here to do, to understand completely and all three dimensions, the actual story and narrative of what's gone on here. >> want to ask you about you will ask them if a moment because there's crucial testimonying come up and i want to know when you met with the inspector general who evaluated the whistle-blower complaint and deeming it credible and urgent and gave you documents today, i understand, and laid out his thinking and what he knew and
4:07 pm
when he knew it. what did you learn new? >> first of all, i want to say that my reaction to inspector general atkinson was much the same it was the first time. the man was incredibly thorough and approaches his job with integ letty and t integrity ask the very fact is that we're able to investigate the whistle-blower complaint is because he came forward with it. as a matter of fact, since the inspector general had the issuance of the call report they have verified everything that the complaintant put forth. so we now know if the in the president's own words that he actively solicited in clear violation of federal law the assistance of a foreign national government in support of his campaign in 2020. >> we also saw the text messages that volker provided to congress in his testimony this week. volker, of course, trump's envoy to ukraine, former.
4:08 pm
he has now resigned. perhaps the most damning message that we all heard and saw came from bill taylor. bill taylor in this text which came out in the volker testimony says i think it's crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign. okay. this is the top american -- diplomat in ukraine, a stunning text and i think it's important, congressman to make sure that was sent before anyone in america knew there was a whistle-blower or any issue with ukraine. no one knew there was a story. that's what people who were involved thought this was. they thought it was a quid pro quo. what was the most powerful evidence that you've seen between the inspector general testimony and the envoy. were there other texts or other things that are powerful? >> first of all, the call report and the president's own words in which he said directly after a discussion about the sale of javelin missiles to ukraine, i need a favor. i need you to do us a favor,
4:09 pm
though. and that combined with what ambassador taylor said about it being crazy to withhold security assistance, i think, are incredibly damning. their own words and i would respectfully suggest to you that's why everybody on the republican side seems to be in full-blown attack mode. i've said to you before that they only have four play, deny, attack, play the victim and change the subject throughout outrageous pronouncement. they're attacking the process. they're attacking the whistle-blower. they're attacking the inspector general. a republican senator today attacked president obama. they're attacking chairman schiff. they're doing everything except defending these words which are unbelievably in and of themselves incriminating. >> before we go, obviously, you have the subpoena to the white house and i know you're giving them a deadline, i believe, two weeks from now. your committee gave a deadline tonight for secretary of state mike pompeo and rudy giuliani,
4:10 pm
that's the subpoena deadline tonight. they've got a few hours. where do things stand? >> i don't have much optimism whatsoever that they'll comply with the law. they've shown no regard for it thus far to date. what's really at trial here isn't just the narrow behavior of the incumbent president of the united states and his violation of this particular federal statute. it is the very principle of the rule of law and i don't it is that people who would hold public trust and those of us who were privileged by these positions are obligated under the constitutional oath of office to adhere to the law. we are and those who aren't will be held accountable sooner or later. >> thank you very much for your time. >> you've welcome. >> democrats want u crane's office, and the vice president slamming that request this hour. plus so many are so stylent, but now some are speaking out. that ahead and more breaking news, doctors saying minutes ago
4:11 pm

4:15 pm
breaking news. vice president pence slamming house democrats who are demanding documents from him as part of the impeachment inquiry as to whether president trump pressured ukraine's president to investigate joe biden in exchange for aid. pence's office saying issue quote, given the scope it does not appear to be a serious request, but just another a dechlt by the do-nothing democrats to call attention to the partisan impeachment. he could be hit with subpoenas like mike pompeo and rudy giuliani who as i indicated have until midnight tonight to respond and you heard the congressman on the intelligence committee they have not yet done so. out front now, former attorney general ann millgram and carl bernstein, and glen donad who represented president clinton during his impeachment hearing and evan perez. trump sent pence in his place to meet with the ukraine president
4:16 pm
at one point. pence was told about the call where trump pressured the ukrainian president to investigate the bidens and unclear if he knew all parts of it even though he may have been give know a transcript. he may not have known about a quid pro quo, but he's at the heart of this, right, evan? >> right. he is at the heart of it. one of the things we know about mike pence is haez a careful person. it's hard to believe that he would not have read carefully that five-page transcript of the call. it's hard tobl that he wouldn't have prepared himself as much as he could before he went to this important meeting. he is someone who is well known for doing exactly that. i think the democrats want more information because they're not buying the story right now that the vice president's camp is telling, and as you said, he's enmeshed in the middle of all of this because he is the one who has that face to face meeting with the ukrainian president.
4:17 pm
>> should he be worried, mike pence? the next step would be a formal subpoena? >> yes. i expect he'll be subpoenaed given the statement that he made. there are so many people that are involved in this in one way or another and as evan said pence is directly in this. they have to find out what messages and what conversations he had, what he knew and when and absolutely, this will not stop with him saying it's not a legitimate request. >> carl, can he -- will it fly that he says i knew nothing about it? yeah, i was briefed about the call and i had the transcript, and i didn't know why i was told. >> there's nothing credible about what he's saying and more important, let's pull back. what are we really looking at here? we're looking at an impeachment inquiry that suggests with some real factual basis that there has been a conspiracy led by the president of the united states or might have been, but looking like a real likelihood, a
4:18 pm
conspiracy led by the president of the united states to undermine our electoral system by kneecapping his most formidable political opponent, joe biden and trading and mortgaging our foreign approximately see to his own political ends and who might be involved in this, perhaps, conspiracy? the vice president of the united states. the president's personal attorney, perhaps the attorney general of the united states. all of this is going to get sorted out in the coming weeks and months, but also we're talking about high crimes if this is what happened and there's little doubt if the record is established these are high crimes. >> glen, to that point, how does this compare to what you went through, right? an impeachment inquiry about a guy lying about sex to what we are seeing now involving foreign policy and a possible quid pro quo. >> to follow up on carl's point
4:19 pm
thsh this is a legitimate impeachment inquiry. with all due respect that was about personal conduct and lies about personal conduct that were elevated to a partisan exercise. none of the senior officers of the clinton administration were involved in any meaningful way because it was private conduct. here as ann and carl said it's a significant core of the trump cabinet who have to get lawyers, who are fact witnesses and who might be adverse to one another and who will be instructed by lawyers that they shouldn't talk to each other, and this is an allegation of abuse of power to what hamilton and madison were talking about in the federalist papers and it's core impeachment material. >> you have the white house itself being subpoenaed and you've got this deadline for rudy giuliani, deadline for mike pompeo, the white house now subpoenaed and mike pence likely to be subpoenaed and the
4:20 pm
subpoena was just delivered to the chief of staff mick mulvaney. >> that's right. the white house says they're not going to play ball with this because they say it's illegitimate and there's an interesting thing that the president did today. one of the things that he is essentially daring nancy pelosi and the democrats to do is to formally vote on an impeachment inquiry to essentially formalize this process. one of the things they want to do is the republicans want to fight on the same ground by being able to subpoena witnesses and perhaps be able to bring up some of the things that the president has been trying to bring up on joe biden and other parts of the story. so i think that's part of the other game that they're playing here is that they want to be able to fight back and right now only the democrats are able to wield subpoenas and so on. that's the other game that's been played and it's a political one. >> carl? this involves a likely cover-up which is also a conspiratorial
4:21 pm
act. >> you're talking about putting it on the server and the people knew about that. >> yes, and also about the lockbox and about those conversations, those summaries that are now in the white house under digital lock and key and what do they reveal about, and the white house does not want to give up those documents, those conversations with putin, with ukraine or any more of these leaders, with china and that's going to be a huge fight, but there is, again, the suggestion of two parts of a conspiracy to undermine the electoral system, to hold our foreign policy hostage to the president's personal wishes and needs and then to cover it up involving all of these people and perhaps involving the state department, as well. >> one question that i've had as we learn about more and more calls being put on this unprecedented code name server,
4:22 pm
right? whether it's china or putin or muhammad bin sal man in tman wh sided with the cia. if they were going to cover this up and they were going to put it on that server, why didn't they just try to destroy some of it? >> that's a good question. because it doesn't seem like any red line was one -- >> i guess that's what i'm saying. it seems that what i'm saying it's crazy, if you're willing to do this, where do you draw the line? >> too many people saw it. that would make it worse. >> that would require the involvement of additional people and that would cross the line into real violations of the record-keeping obligations and just whether trump's people would call it a deep state. these are probably people who take their obligation seriously and thankfully weren't corrupted by the same impulse that has affected a lot of other people in this white house. >> i think that's right. the reality is people use the amount of sort of obstruction
4:23 pm
that they have to to get something out of -- out of view and at that moment in time they just didn't want it to go out widely. this idea of putting it under this pass code, this lock code was a sure, very quick way to basically get something out. >> it is as equivalent to the nixon tapes. nixon didn't want to give up his tapes in watergate and the you will tapes ultimately are what did him in. here we have the president's word, paraphrased, his actions and his conduct and that's going to be the big fight. >> all of you stay with me. next, the republicans. a few are now speaking out against the president so who and why and where are the rest of them? the breaking news about bernie sanders. doctors revealing he had a heart attack when he was admitted to the hospital earlier this week and dr. sanjay gupta out front. performance comes in lots of flavors. there's the amped-up, over-tuned,

4:28 pm
the breaking news this hour, house democrats are ramping up their impeachment inquiry. they have just issued a subpoena to trump's white house. it comes after the white house refused to hand over documents related to trump and ukraine. now tonight some republicans are ripping president trump not just for ukraine, but also publicly asking china to investigate 2020 rival joe biden and his son. mitt romney today tweeting when the only american citizen president trump singles out for china's investigation is his political opponent in the process it is strange credulity to suggest that it is anything other than politically motivated. by all appearances, the president's brazen and unprecedented appeal to china and to ukraine to investigate joe biden is wrong and appalling. that's the sitting senator mitt
4:29 pm
romney. former cia officer will herd said this on camera today. >> i think it's terrible, and it's something that i wouldn't have done. i think that is something that a president of the united states shouldn't be doing. >> okay. everyone is back with me. carl, let me start with you. look, senator romney and congressman hurd are in the minority. >> they're off in a corner. >> but look, there are others who have spoken out, you know, congressman turner, about the call itself although not about anything, and ben sasse. i'll get to that, but what do you make of those two actually speaking out? is that a moment of courage right now? >> i think it's courageous, perhaps to an extent in romney's case. hurd all along has been a lone voice in his party. >> yes. >> but what's happening with romney and i have not spoken to people around him in a while is.
4:30 pm
>> is the question is he setting himself up to possibly run for the presidency if this thing becomes more and more toxic if there are other republicans who move toward what he's saying? it's's long shot that this would happen rid now. everybody is pretty much in lockstep. this president, we have seen the president of the united states at his most unhinged and that, too, is having a big -- in the last few days a big effect on republicans if you talk to them in private. they are really concerned about the stability of the president of the united states. >> and glen, you know that the -- that what the other party is doing is crucial. i mean, certainly carl knows it from covering watergate. what matters here is what republicans are going to do. we know the democratic point of view on this. it's what republicans are going to do. are people going to speak out? >> right, and you saw certainly in the '90s a lot more democrats were on the president's side spoke out. not many ultimately went along for impeachment and they certainly decried the conduct in
4:31 pm
a way we haven't seen here and the republican ranks are very tight and it seems they're very episodic anomalies where you saw senior democratic senators speak out against the conduct and we haven't seen anything like that -- >> this is where watergate is very relevant because the heroes of watergate were republicans who broke ranks and that is why richard nixon had to leave office and barry goldwater, the nominee, marched to the white house and told richard nixon that he did not have the votes in the senate to survive a trial including goldwater's own vote and was that the end of nixon and nixon decided that day -- >> a far cry from that now. >> when you look at the senatorial ranks which is where this will go down if there is to be a move and obviously mitt romney is the lone voice, and you have others who have criticized parts of this, right? let me talk about rubio. he has said, china posed this
4:32 pm
most significant threat and not only the economic interests of america and other democracies, but also the freedom and openness and that's his point of view and yet today he this this to say about trumpee private plea. here's marco rubio. >> think he did it to get you guys and i think he did it to provoke you to ask me and others and get outraged and others. he plays it like a violin and then he falls right into it. that's not a real request. >> okay. so evan, what he's trying to say is it totally would not be okay, but he didn't do it. is that opening the door here? at least he's not saying it's totally fine. he's just saying it was a joke. ? right. exactly, that their is what's happening on a curve, you know? that's the same way that the
4:33 pm
just said in the request and they looked at what the president said on that call and they sort of decided look, he being haven't been serious and if someone else would have done this then other people would have a different reaction, but because of the way the president speak, i think he does get graded differently and it does get treated differently. the question is, right, when the president of the united states says something, in the past, at least, it was taken seriously and we've seen it repeatedly including from the justice department, when he tweets it's not what the government policy is or that's not what we mean, and so i think that's exactly what's happening all over again. >> can we look at the fact that he has said allegedly and with some justification, we have reason to believe it, much the same thing to the australians, the chinese. the people of ukraine and the prime minister and president of ukraine, to boris johnson.
4:34 pm
so he's gone around the world with this to try and undermine the campaign and biden by offering something perhaps to these other foreign leaders. >> and here's the thing. a lot of this will come down to voters and we're talking about republican senators and the pressure they're under and here's what johnny ernst had with a voter at a trump caul ha hall and here she is. >> where is the line? when are you guys going to say enough and stand up and say you know what? i'm not backing any of this? you yourself served. you didn't pledge an oath to the president. you pledged it to our country and you pledged it to our constitution. >> i can say yea, nay, the president is going to say what the president is going to do. it's up to us as ng members of congress to continue working with our allies making sure that we remain strong in the face of adversity. >> it's okay for our president to extort other countries? >> you know -- okay.
4:35 pm
we're going to move on to another question. but what i would say is we can't determine that yet. so not jumping to any conclusions. we don't have the full story yet. >> this is an extraordinary exchange and the thing i love about it and i watched it this morning is that it reminds all of us that the senators and the president work for the people of the united states of america and this woman is sitting there asking the exact questions who saw the president speak, china shouldn't be investigating biden and uk, australia, great britain and to watch the president of the united states abuse his power and not raise questions and support an inquiry to find out what happened and to get the evidence together. the people who matter most in this are people like this who are asking questions and at the end of the day i believe the white house will not be able to resist subpoenas and requests and the american public will
4:36 pm
want to know is anyone interfering with the election in 2020. >> thank you all very much. >> breaking news, doctors just revealing presidential candidate bernie sanders suffered a heart attack earlier this week. trump can't stop ranting about joe biden and his son, but are the president and his children, do they have big problems when it comes to profiting from office? ♪ things you can do with schwab: you can earn more when you invest your cash. ♪ you can get a satisfaction guarantee. ♪ you can also wonder why our competitors don't offer that. schwab, a modern approach to wealth management.

breaking news. the sanders campaign confirming the 2020 contender suffered a heart attack earlier this week. sanders left a las vegas hospital earlier today. he was hospitalized there tuesday night when he was at an event and he experienced chest discomfort. two stents were placed to clear a blocked artery. that is all we knew at the time. it could be a quit recovery and his doctors saying in a statement, quote, after presenting to an outside facility with chest pain, senator sanders was diagnosed with my iocardial infarction. i apologize to the doctors out there. that is a heart attack. out front now, dr. sanjay gupta, chief medical correspondent. i apologize for the term, but perhaps meyer ry error reflects people feel, confusion, what does that say to you?
4:41 pm
>> erin, that was the big question in all this. you know that he'd been hospitalized and he had the stents placed and in terms of his recovery overall and the question has been and did, in fact, his heart -- did he have a heart attack and did he have a period of time when his heart muscle wasn't getting enough blood flow and part of the muscle died and that's what happened in a miocardial infarction. >> he went to the first hospital where, in fact, that heart attack, the miocardial infarction was diagnosed and then he was transferred to the second hospital for the stenting and they've known about this since tuesday night and obviously, this is the first time that we're hearing about it. we don't know, as well, was this a mild or mild heart attack or was this a more severe heart attack and a heart attack is a heart attack for most people and mild versus severe means how much heart muscle was affected
4:42 pm
by this. someone who has had a mild heart attack their heart function may be limited somewhat, but not significantly. obviously, if it was a more severe heart attack his heart function would be more limited. a couple of clues, erin. one that you mentioned two and a half days in the hospital and that's pretty quick. if this were a more severe heart attack he'd probably be in there longer. so that's, you know, one thing that the doctors, i'm sure, take into consideration and he's getting back in the campaign trail after taking some time off. we don't know how much time that mean, necessarily, so there is still some -- some unanswered questions in there, some details that we'd still like to have. >> but you know, the other day when you spoke, if there is a heart attack and part of the heart muscle dies you take so much longer to recover. even if it's mild, you can return fully to where you were
4:43 pm
before. i guess what i'm saying, he's an energetic guy and a passionate guy. there's no one more energetic than he. >> right. >> is he going to be able to just jump back in at full speed or is there going to be a ramp? >> i think there will be a ramp. i think there's no question that i think any doctor will probably say, look, the goal of this procedure was to get you back to your way of life and your level of activity, but it's not going to happen overnight. you'll have to go slowly and ramp up to that level of activity, but that is the goal and that is part of the reason you do this procedure. there are two things to sort of think about when you're thinking about this. one is that the heart is a muscle and it wasn't getting enough blood flow and it hurts and that's why people get chest pain. when you restore the blood flow people feel better because you're getting the regular blood flow as the heart muscle is demanding it and the flipside is
4:44 pm
