married, he tried to run her over. more to come on this, dana. >> dana: laura ingle thank you for following that story and we appreciate you joining us, i'm dana perino and i will be on "the five" for two hours from now but meanwhile. >> dana come a live look on capitol hill, the set to deliver the articles of impeachment to the senate today and speaker nancy pelosi announcing the manager to prosecute president trump at his trial, but the white house calling the whole thing a sham. also the president signing phase one of the trade deal with china. we will look at what it means for all of us and any minute now, both parties coming together to honor former nfl player for his heroic light off at the field. i'm trace gallagher. fox news reporting begins now. >> reporting begins with the house to formally deliver at the

house of impeachment to the senate. speaker nancy pelosi naming the managers who will prosecute president trump at his trial set to begin next week. speak with the emphasis is on comfort level in the courtroom. the emphasis is on making strong as possible a case to protect and defend the constitution, to seek the truth for the american people. >> piece speaker pelosi with house intelligence chairman adam schiff and house judiciary chair jerry nadler to lead the team of seven congressmen and women. president trump has denied doing anything wrong and has repeatedly said, his conversation with ukraine's president was perfect. today the ranking member of the house judiciary committee, georgia republican doug collins slamming the entire impeachment process. >> this impeachment process has been flawed from the outset. it resembles not a congressional action. it resembles more of a dr. seuss book not knowing which way it goes.

>> trace: the house voted to transmit the articles of impeachment to the senate and articles will be walk to capitol hill. the chief white house correspondent john roberts reaction from the white house, first chad pergram reporting live from capitol hill. chadha, what do the impeachment managers do now exactly? >> there is a meeting going on in the basement of the capital where all seven of these managers are getting together. i asked val demings a second term member, one of the impeachment members, when she found out if she could tell me. she kind of laughed and said no. but they were kind of gnomic kind of plotting their strategy but keep in mind, the senate majority leader mitch mcconnell allocates 24 hours for the house to present their case, divide that by seven, well, you can see where this is a lot of time for each of those managers. and the 13 managers they had in 1999, there is a lot for these managers to do. we don't know which ones will handle individual sections or

portfolios or lines of questioning. we just don't know. that is something they are trying to figure out right now. i am told they all found out that they would be impeachment managers in the last 24 hours or so. so they are planning their strategy, and also the president's team will have to come together to get their strategy together. that is why we think they probably won't get into the heart of this until early next week. >> trace: talk about the risk for both sides as they move forward to trial? >> this is going to be the big wild card especially if they bring in witnesses. there were 41, count them, 41 witnesses in the impeachment trial of andrew johnson in 1868. olton,he bidens 1 for 1to reciprocity withli that could get very dicey. we just don't know the political ramifications of a lengthy trial. we don't know if this helps democrats, hurts president trump, anything can happen. there is an old saying the most important impact in the most important thing in politics or

events. we have a big event. we thought that late january, february, dealing with the new hampshire primary and iowa caucuses, those would be the main event. this impeachment trial is a political event of the year. this will influence what happens on the campaign trail as we go into fall. because so tuesday is the big day chad, but what happens tomorrow in the senate? >> something we learned in the past hour or so, it looks like tentatively, they won't start their work receiving the impeachment managers in presenting the impeachment articles formally reading them before the senate until midday. the reason is, they are trying to get completion on the usmca trade pact between canada and mexico. just in the past hour or so, they start a debate on the senate floor on that definitive plan as they tried to get an agreement on to vote tomorrow morning and the impeachment articles later today, then we would move to the fourth phase middle of the day or early

afternoon tomorrow. then prepare for the actual, you know, meat and potatoes of the trial next week, trace. >> trace: chad pergram on capitol hill, continue with team faults to max fox coverage, john roberts reporting from the north lawn, john. >> trace, good afternoon to you. an event for signing of the new u.s./china deal but the president to sneak impeachment in there because it was an interesting scene. there were a lot of republican house members, kevin mccarthy of the minority leader seated in the front row but you move to the back and adjust as the event got under way, he ducked out. as soon as it finished and went on for about one hour 15 minutes from all of the other house members quickly ducked out because they had to get up to the hill to vote. he had to leave early to make a floor speech. the president said in a joke, he would rather have them, and you see there starting to head out, should i go this way, that way, let me go the other way. the president joking he would rather have all the house members up on capitol hill and

have them in the east room. listen then. >> some of the congressman may have a vote, and it's an impeachment hoax, so i would rather frankly, it's not going to matter because it's going well. but i would rather have you vote then sit here and need to in introduce you. there is a hoax going on over there. let's take care of it. the house votes 195-0 and we have three democrats. one of them actually left the democratic party and came over republican. >> trace: you heard the president saying things are going to go very well. they feel confident they don't have the 67 votes to remove him from office. the white house press secretary had harsh words for nancy pelosi. in his statement, the news conference this morning saying "the only thing speaker pelosi has achieved with a sham, illegitimate impeachment process is to prove she's focused on politics than the american

people." after the president signs a trade deal benefiting the country he will continue winning for americans. the democrats will continue working against the president. it was an interesting study in contrast. the president there in the east room with a room full of titans from american industry, signing this historic first ever trade deal between the united states and china. in the meantime, the democrats handed the articles of impeachment to the senate to try to take him out of office. there will be another study in contrast next week. the president, i'm told, still planning to go to doubles tuesday morning at 11:30 he will give a speech to global economid economic forum but at the same s underway. >> greg: this is the first trade deal with china. >> the president said during the campaign in the first year of his presidency that he wanted a comprehensive trade deal with china. everything all at once. it became quickly apparent that

was not possible. so now they were doing it in phases. this is phase 1 deal and this will cover to some degree, the trade deficit or disparity, at least, between the united states and china. china promising to buy $200 million more in u.s. goods including additional $32 million in agricultural over the 2017 baseline. it will begin to implement protections for u.s. and intellectual property. it will address, to some degree, technology transfer and began currency manipulation. in exchange the president relaxed current tariffs, held up implementing new tariffs from about $370 billion in chinese goods will stay on and the president said he could impose more sanctions if china does not live up to its end of the deal. listen here. >> i'm leading them on because otherwise negotiating is very tough. but they will all come off as

soon as we finish phase 2 and that would be something that some people on wall street will love, but from what i see, they love this deal the way it is now. we have very strong cards. >> leo, the chinese vice premie, liu he, senator chuck schumer who against china came out very critical of him today commencins agreement does not address the fundamental issues of chinese subsidy in the issue and as well, government ownership of chinese industry. but rather, the trade representative said that will be addressed in phase two if they can get it done, trace. >> trace: for now the market seem to like it up 29,000, john roberts on the north lawn. john, thank you for bringing ohio congressman who is on the house judiciary foreign committee. an impeachment manager during the president impeachment trial. congressman commit is great to see you here. you have said you believe the

democrats are running an unfair impeachment proceeding compared to what you and your 12 colleagues did back in 1999 with president clinton. explain. >> i certainly think that is the case. we really bent over backwards with the clinton impeachment to make sure that the president due process rights were protected at that time. we allowed them to have witnesses virtually all stages to cross-examine witnesses, present evidence, it's been just the opposite with president trump and of course, today, nancy pelosi, the speaker did appoint the house impeachment managers saying in the bottom line, it really doesn't matter, it doesn't change the fact that this president did not commit an impeachable offense. i think we all know that is where the senate is ultimately going to come down. >> trace: you mention how speaker nancy pelosi bringing up the managers, introducing them and while she was doing that,

congressman, she defended holding onto the articles for almost a month. listen to her and then i will get your response. >> this is for evidence. insist that we wouldn't be in this situation have we not waited. and insist that there be, that there be witnesses. and that we see documentation. and now, you see some of that change happening on the senate floor. i hope it does for the good of the country and to honor the constitution. >> what do you make of her argument? >> i think the speaker has been playing political games with this, back in the clinton impeachment we sent over the articles of impeachment immediately. that is what is expected to. that is what everybody expected her to do. in this case, i thought when a reporter mentioned she was talking about delaying it for maybe a couple of days or maybe even longer, i thought they were kidding. nobody had really speculated about that, but clearly what she

was trying to do was get political leverage over the senate. it is up to them how they want to handle this at this point in time. she was trying to get leverage over them. it just didn't work. it kind of blew up in her face, i think. >> trace: i was doing research on you congressman, and your hometown newspaper has been asking you about impeachment for more than a year. a year ago, you did an interview about impeachment in january of last year. this has been on the agenda for quite some time. >> it absolutely has. in fact, ultimately, they came up with this ukrainian deal, but let's remember the russian collusion that dragged on at the expense of 20 some million dollars and went on for months. ultimately determined there was no russian collusion. and the attorney general indicated no obstruction of justice. and so unfortunately, we have a number of democrats in the house

and a lot of their base who never really accepted the results of the 2016 election. they wanted to impeach this president since he took office. now, they are getting their way to the extent that yes, he will be impeached. he already has been by the house. clearly since he didn't commit an impeachable offense he will not be removed from office. all this money wasted, this time wasted, we should focus on important issues for the american people. >> trace: i have to go, congressman i have about ten seconds. 1 for 1 thing, john bolton and republicans get hunter biden, your thoughts. >> that is up to the senate to commit that and if they want to do that, that is fine with me but quite frankly, i don't think it is likely to happen. >> trace: congressman steve chapa tacoma good to see you. >> thank you. >> trace: up next reaction from the other side of the aisle, sending articles of impeachment to the senate,

>> trace: breaking news coverage continues at the house where handing over the articles of impeachment to the senate. we just heard from republican congressman and former impeachment manager steve chapa and nell congresswoman debbie dingell, from michigan,

thank you for joining us. i would like to begin by asking the same question i ended with the congressman. what are your thoughts on the new talk of this 1 for 1 thing where if the democrats get john bolton to testify, the republicans would like to see hunter biden testify and so forth? >> i would say this. this is about the president. i think it is about what happened at the white house. and i think it begins because the president was trying to be political with officials obligations. i would discourage it. i think that nobody is above the law in this country. but i also want to see us get on and get on with the work of the people. the senate needs to be a fair, open chance process and the senate. we have a lot of work to do for people. >> trace: i want to put this on the screen. this is what the president tweeted, this was the deal of the democrats. "here we go again another con john do-nothing democrats.

all of this work was supposed to be done by the house, not the senate. clearly indicating, he doesn't want witnesses. he wants this thing to be dismissed. >> you know, i'm going to say this. when president clinton was impeached, when the republican congress were members of the republican and democrats want to hear certain witnesses and were subpoenaed, they appeared. the president has refused to let any member of the administration testified. and so i think the people wanted to be a fair trial and the senate. they want people to understand what the issues are. you have seen more information that is not allowed to come out before the impeachment occurred in the house. it is dripping out because the media is finding it. and i think it is important that the senate and a very nonpartisan, calm, deliberative way get all of the evidence and the american people know what it is. >> trace: you mentioned, you know, the president has not

allowed these witnesses. in fairness, the democrats could have subpoenaed them, could have gone to court to get the witnesses and the information they wanted when they have the chance at the time, fair? >> there were some court cases, john bolton's assistance was an example and the court to see what was going to happen. but i even think they want this to move quickly. there was some issue, some based on what the president had done that were not. but the senate has got the ability. they are the ones that are going to, i hope, going to hold a very fair, impartial, transparent hearing that the american people can see all sides. if this president has got things he wants the american people to know about why he did it, then he should have the lawyers be presenting it so the american people see it. >> trace: are you disappointed at the partisan nature of this? if this was a courtroom trial, the senators would be disqualified because most of them are on the record saying what they believe.

there is clearly no impartiality here. >> i think there are some members in their impartial but i will tell you i'm deeply bothered by the impersonal nature of all of this. because i will tell you, it was one of the reasons i did not come out for impeachment last summer under enormous pressure. i had no choice. nobody is above the law, and my job is to protect national security. but we know that rush is trying to divide us as a country. and we have been more divided than we ever have been. we have to come together as america. and remember we are americans first. republicans, democrats, independents, whatever we are, that is after we are american. and what that is like and everything it stands for it. >> trace: how do you respond, very quickly, congressman that impeachment has been weaponized? >> well, if someone wants to say that my would actually say the republicans are the ones that did that. but i'm not going to take the partisan shot. we all have to be fair, open,

and honest. >> trace: congressman dingell, think it's much. >> thank you. >> trace: wall street reacting to the largest economies and a head more the china and u.s. signing phase one of the trade deal and what it means for your as a caricature artist, i appreciate what makes each person unique. that's why i like liberty mutual. they get that no two people are alike and customize your car insurance so you only pay for what you need. almost done.

>> trace: breaking news. important live look on capitol hill where any moment retired nfl player who lives with als, steve will receive a congressional gold medal. the metal has the highest civilian honor awarded by congress. steve come if you don't know played seven seasons with new orleans saints. the defensive back in one heck of a defensive back before he retired 2008. 2011, doctors diagnose the former pro with als, also known as lou gehrig's disease. it is a progressive nervous

system disease that left him paralyzed. but that has not stopped steve gleason from working to find a cure for als and he has been adamant about that. house minority leader kevin mccarthy honoring him now. let's listen into this. >> steve has an incredible team sitting with him right today. beside him, michelle, an amazing family. they are baby daughter, gray. this award goes to them as well. >> steve on behalf of a proud and grateful nation. thank you for all you do with als. you have set the example of dignity, perseverance for all americans. may god continue to bless you. simply put, the world is a better place because of you. congress is proud, the nation's proud, and we thank you and bless you for your life, for your work, and most importantly your strength and courage.

god bless! [applause] >> ladies and gentlemen the honorable charles schumer of the united states senate will thank you. leader mcconnell, leader mccarthy in so many others including the great true breeze. now i'm told that today is true breeze's birthday. i wouldn't recommend that anyone celebrate their birthday visiting congress. but drew, we are more than happy to have you. seriously, it is an honor to join with all of you today to celebrate the extraordinary steve gleason by awarding him the congressional gold medal. only 163 people have ever received this honor, george washington, nelson mandela, mother teresa,

and now, steve gleason. now rebirth, that is the name on the statue outside of the superdome in new orleans showing steve's famous blocked phone against atlanta. of course, that famous play did more than swing the momentum to the same against the rival falcons. that play inspired hope in a city beset by tragedy. after such devastation, it gave everyone reason to cheer. but today, we are not here to honor steve for his relics on the football field, but to recognize his truly heroic life off of the field. a life spent helping those who struggle with als and other degenerative diseases experience a rebirth of their own. i know the disease. my dearest uncle, a well-known

obstetrician in new york struggled with als for three years before he passed. as many as 30,000 people have als in the united states. half of those affected die within three years of diagnosis. it can strike anyone at any ti time. which is what happened to steve. in the face of a disease so awful, and a stroke of faith so cruel for such an active person, steve could have simply cursed the darkness. many of us would have simply asked "why me?" but instead of piercing the darkness he chose to light a candle. he chose to inspire and help others braving als just like he is. and as steve, himself, has said, most people with als don't have the resources to rebuild their lives on their own. but thanks to the work of team

gleason, thousands of patients now have access to groundbreaking technology that helps restore dignity to their lives. in 2018, as a result of this advocacy come at the steve gleason act was signed into law with better access to speech generating devices with americans with diseases like als, helping these patients until the day when god willing, we find a cure. ten years after katrina, if you organizations wanted to put together a rep prospective so they asked prominent new orleans to address the city. let me close with a sample of what steve wrote. he wrote "like the city's levees in 2005, my invincible body has failed me. but like the residents of the city built 5 feet below sea level, i chose to be an

idealist. when the world sees tragedy, idealists see opportunity. when the world folds its hands, idealists double down. when the world retreats, idealists reinvent. we must be steadfast, and iacocca my deals." so steve wrote. our country could use a few more ideas and our world could use a more steve gleason's. today we honor the one we have with us. congratulations, steve, god bless you and your family. [applause] >> ladies and gentlemen to honorable mitch mcconnell, republican leader of the united states senate.

>> well, of course, when we think of steve gleason, we transport back to the superdome on that monday night. as others have noted, that epic block pond was a redemptive mom. steve didn't single-handedly rebuild new orleans that night. but every single american new at that moment the big easy was coming back. who could have predicted that? steve grew up in spokane. he went undrafted in the nfl. what if he hadn't snuck into the saints practice squad? what a reminder that god has

plans for each of us that we never could have imagined. to block a punt, you have to put your body on the line. you may not even get the glory of running the ball into the end zone yourself. but your extraordinary efforts puts everyone around you in a better position to succeed. and of course, that is what steve gleason is still doing every single day. one of the paradoxes in medicine's medical issues are so personal and so private, and yet, progress requires awarene awareness. it takes awareness to develop technology, to help people live their lives to the fullest. it takes awareness to find cur cures. it takes people like steve and

families like the gleason's who are willing to be open about their challenges and carry the torch. after all, it was another famous athlete lou garrett who battled with als that introduced it to the public this illness. so i don't think any of us will be shocked at future generations when we look back and think, how fitting that it was another great athlete an american hero who changed the course of this disease for so many and ultimately helped to end it. we know that steve is a practicing catholic and the catholic tradition emphasize asking for prayers and help from the saints. [laughter] it emphasizes that we are not alone. others are rooting for us. the saints have paved the way.

well, steve, that is just what you mean to so many people. you are paving the way. you are cheering them on. they've got their saints, all right. number 37 to be precise. so steve, you your congress thanks you, your country thanks you. it is an honor to present this metal and place you in this historic company where you belong. [applause] >> ladies and gentlemen to honorable nancy pelosi, speaker of the united states house of representatives. >> it is my honor to join the distinguished leadership of the congress of the united states, the louisiana delegation in

so compelling and the fact that steve gleason has made life at her so many people. he has a great american whose very name is synonymous with hope. the hope to restore the city devastated by hurricane katrina. and i won't go into football plays because they have been appropriately addressed. the hope you give to those living with als and to their families, and the hope that you instill in all of our hearts as you have turned adversity into opportunity. as you had said from adversity heroes are born. you are truly one of them. for nine years, steve has lived each day and a tribute his motto, no white flags. to surrender his fight, has helped thousands of people win players. and the fight against a disease that robs people of their speech, steve has helped give back so many people their

voices. it is important to know how grateful we should be to steve. thank you, steve, providing cutting-edge equipment to tens of thousands with neuromuscular diseases or injuries. thank you for ensuring passage of key laws, to ensure access to speech generating devices to those who live with als. thank you for eye tracking technology for those who are paralyzed. and thank you for mobilizing the largest als research project with people living with als are front and center of the action. of course, these most beautiful achievements are forever engraved, and we are thrilled that you are with us today. we are also touched by the beautiful video journals that steve has recorded for his children which will serve as immortal reminder of his boundless love. steve's story reminds us we are

all one accident, one incident, one diagnosis, one phone call away from death life changing situations and needing quality, affordable health care. all americans have the right to health care, including technologies, equipment and care services that help them live happy, healthy, and meaningful lives. you are making that possible. sometimes, i too, in a catholic and as you know faith, hope, charity. people ask me, where is hope? i say hope is where it has always been, sitting right there between faith and charity. faith and in between theft, faith, hope, and the goodness of others. and until faith and goodness have given people better hope, hope for those that are

struggling in the face of adversity. steve has said in his words if we have a purpose in life beyond being a cog in the human machine, mine is to help and support to inspire people. i would like to motivate the world. and indeed, you have. steve, you have, indeed, motivated the world. congratulations on this award with a symbol of your courage and of all who refused to give up or give in to adversity. now, it is time for us to present the congressional gold medal to steve gleason. [applause]

>> trace: we are having audio issues here but what is happening steve gleason is about to receive the congressional gold medal. what they are doing is, they will put this system qc up there. this is part of why he has been paid tribute to come as you can see them kind of clapping there.

they wanted to put this system up there so steve gleason could say a few words. it is part of this amazing technology that has allowed so many people with als the ability to speak when they could not speak. that is what this -- let me just listen. >> announcer: ladies and gentlemen, mr. steve gleason, >, they are, everyone.

andrew mccarthy, senators, representative and members of congress. also, thank you for coming spea. just so everyone knows, today is drew's birthday wish you a very capital happy birthday, brother. me. i feel that more importantly, i feel that represents some joy, encouragement and even triumph the tens of thousands of extraordinary families currently als.

also, the millions of extraordinary people in this country living with disabilities or other illness all of you ordinary humans who experience adversity, tragedy, or anguish. no one is immune from anguish. officials. nfl players, or the most famous. i suppose, i don't see my story as a football story or even a als story. but rather a human story. the truth is that we all experience pain in our lives. but i believe that the problems we face are our opportunity and to define our human purpose.

i believe that adversity is our opportunity to keep exploring, because we will all face pain and tragedy. but it is clear to me that beyond the human capacity of imagination, our greatest strength as a species has been our ability to bravely share our weaknesses and vulnerabilities with each other. during that, we are able to understand each other's issues and collaborate together to solve problems and overcome any obstacle. while sharing once a week, this may not be common practice for people, especially for politicians in an election year, wink, wink. [laughter] sharing my weaknesses was an entirely critical for me to play eight years in the nfl.

and, it has been unquestionably critical to my survival and purpose for the past nine years living with the diseases dreadfully beautiful as als. i am grateful to the literally thousands of people who have direct the uplifted me both emotionally and physically in my 42 years. most importantly, i am grateful to my parents for instilling in me many of the values i have used to be successful. and of course, my wife, michel michelle. this is not the life we imagine th.and it hasn't been easy. but through communication and compassion, we are carving up an awesome existence. in addition to having the understanding that i had to share my weaknesses to survive

and succeed, i am fortunate to have a motivation and reason to live. our son, rivers, and our daughter -- they give me purpose. the purpose of a lifetime. some of you may disagree, but i believe there has been no greater time in history to be human. at the same time, i don't think anyone here or anyone watching will disagree that we as a country and more appropriately, we as a global species face enormous challenges in the coming decade of the 21st century. challenges like exploring and colonizing other planets or thoughtfully solving climate change, or the challenges of genetically engineering superhumans, or positively harnessing the seemingly

miraculous power of artificial intelligence so people's disabilities are turned into super abilities. these challenges provide us with an exponential opportunity as americans and humans. because, if we can keep exploring, share our weaknesses with each other, and compassionately collaborated to solve problems, our human potential is boundless. if we can work to understand and solve each other's problems, and each other's pain, compassionately, then truly, all things are possible. thank you again. to the people of the united states of america, our nation i am so proud to live in for this unbelievable honor. have a wonderful day.
