paper form that will democrats had given uut. il today, republicans had been given the choice to get the presentation in paper form or not. some republicans have chosen not to look at it. some senators wereki l and not taking notes. today, the desks are full of documents. an did not see a single senator nodding off. that is a funny thing to talk about, but these are long days and the chairsre hard an it's a very common to see briefth moment senators nodding off. i did not see it. this is an alert senate. there are two factors. there isat anticn of the president's side presenting his case very soon and pple are focusing on getting ready preparing for that. i also think there is a lot of consideration of the questions senators will ask once the president rests and senators

client's scheme to get her out of the way. the lawyer says this new recordin shows there needs to be more evidence and more witnesses added to th senate trial. president trump has been pushing back on this. the i white houses saying the president can do whatever he wants but the president atanged her when she testified sayshg was a bad ambassador and everywhere she went turned back. judy: this was a day when democrats turned to the second article of impeachment and wasn't until mid-to-late afternoon when it gets to obstruction o congress. what are you hearing in that regard? lisa: democrats produced letters, some from officials within the executive departments of the department of defense specifically, saying to house impeachment at the time,

chairmen, they were trying to help them get documents but they documents and sho letters from individuals and attorneys that were saying my client has choice but to follow the direct orders of his boss, president trump. and democrats haveummed it up, representative lofgren said the presidst's ord were indiscriminate and were wrong and shows wrong. spoke to a few senators,hat representative lofgren is reaching through to senators in a plain-spoken way that seems to be having an effect on both sides. what will they do t rest of the night? by dinner time, the democrats have three hours remaining of 24 hours. we are nearly at thend of it and see if they continue these arguments. i'mooking for the personal

on this story later this year. week and what we heard as mocrats make their case to remove president tmp from office. the analysis. "new york times" david brooks and karen tum you wills ti. it tum you will ti. what would you make thes demoave presented and how they framed the case? mr. davidson: a lot of talk. exhausting. but i think they are satisfied. and adam schiff was the highlight. a very good prosecutor, speaker.

if i graded them, i would give them an arch that trump d it. the evidence was overwhelming. i would give them a lower grade office. d he be removed the i thought they hit it less hard. all my friend's loved adam schiff's csing arguments. that's when he addressed why this is wor removing and he said trump belieid giuli and did it out of self-interest. that strikes me as true, but not a big crime and says you can't trump in the 2020 election. you can't impeach for something he removal part is a weak case. repuicans know he has done it. karen: the longer term of this

just byio the accumul of material that they have put out there, i think t democrats have done a good job in proving this wasn't a frivolous exercise and not impulsive thing they were doing as the republicans were saying to overturn the results of the last election. and the other thing is, the line out of siff's closing argument that really struck mes people keep talking about the institutional imperative heree whe said the framers couldn't protect ourselves ifri t and truth don't matter. that does sort of spe to where we find ourselves, the fmers worried about the most seems to trump evething else. mr. davidson: -- >> it is a moral critique.

does our constitution work judy: they have the majority. karen: probabl not going to get any republican votes to bring witnesses in. i think t house managers are not making this argument because they think that they are somehow going to change what everybody knows the outhi come of is going to be. judy: back to your point, earlier, david, interviewed deb fisher of nebraska, who say

they aren't ready to accept the premise that the president tried to persuade the presint of ukraine to investigate joe they still have a way to go. president who cou say, i messed up, i apologize. i make it up to ukraine. but it's not worth roving. this was the clinton approach. but trump has laid down the law that it will be all or nanhing. that requires a massive denial ofeaty. judy: is it enough for republicans to come back and say, basically repeat, this is a hoax, there is nothing here, let's move on? karen: they are likely to say ere has to be -- we keep hearing the phrase underlying crime, impeachment articles.

i'm not sure the constitutional scholars would agree wh it but that is the argument we will hear from the president's team. david: "wall street journal" editorial said setti the wrong standard for removing.de all pres do it. that will be the argument we will hr. judy: you say they have to mount some kind of a defense and can't dismiss it all. karen: the hardest thing is to deny the facts of what the president actually said in this phone catl. deb fisher told you aside, it's clearly whathe president's intent was. judy: there are four senators, david, who are running for president, who if it weren't for this impeachment trial would be campaigning in new hampshire and iowa. we are 10 days away from the iowa caucuses.

what do we know about the races? how does the race look? david: both sanders and is looking. i think the senatorshat are nouse forced to be washington are going to suffer. it is a small electorate in iowa. and are last minutes changes things and so i think it's a serious advantage for klobuchar, warren andanrs and will have to struggle with it.: juf you look at the polling , you have a really large number of residen of iowa who haven't naired down t candidates. 60% have said they haven't made up their minds at all. that is what these last days are

r. so i agr with you. most hurt by this is amyay be iowa-centric strategy and looking for a bribingthrough there. karen: you were in iow do you pick up on the ground talking to people why it is tha biden and sanders are the most appealing? e are two men with very different approaches t government? karen: it's the hearts versus head. those in it for bernie sanders, they are passionate about their decision and the people who are coming around to the vice president are pragmatic in their decisions. they think he is the guy who can go the distance with trump. dy:avid, we are watching. we are all hoping to get t iowa

before the caucuses but we'll see what happens with the impeachmenrial. the last thing i want to bring up, someone that david knows well. when jim was the anchor and lost yesterday, he died in his sleep. it's a luge lost. tell us about the jim lehrer you ow. >> i was with him 10 years in this building and the story i tell, i was a budding young version of this and when i said something that i thought he like that methe "newshour" and if i said something craft and i would see his mouth. i uld chase the cink will. but in that subtle way without saying a word, he taught me how to do this and set a standard of

excellence. it wasn't just me but all of us who worked in this building. we understood what was the right way to do this and that lives on. what could be greater that defines what excellence is. and the final thing i wou to say, off the air, he was way wilder than he was on the air. much more fun. judy: you used e term moral ecology. he said he was very smart he supplied applied what was right. you followed his career.n: ka fellow from san and tone -- san antonio. it is a coincidenhat he and

the "newshour" came wlongn they did. and the news accelerate with social media. what he really understood at you need to take time and sotimes pause and go deeper into a subject and ask why and how. and that is what really would be lost these days if it weren't people for people like jim lehrer. dy: there is a lot of discussion of what has happened to the news media and being challenged by the president and others w say we are biased and not doing the job we should be doing and the news is flying by too fast. it is the principles that jim laid down. one of the great dinner parties is with him and his wife and jim sheefer and talked about dallas in 196 and they were all

there. and they cover all those events from dallas to obama. and it was a geration of journalism. and some people said it is a passing of an era, but we are still here and we try to carry on in this tradition. judy: we wl carry on at the "newshour," but it is a los that we mark. karen andavid, thank you. judy: as we continue to grieve the loss of jim lehrer, we want to close tonight with the voices of our own staff and "newshour" family. we know he touched so many lives and the outpouring from you, our

viewers, has also touched us all. for those of us lucky to know jim personally, he leaves an indell international imprint on our lives. >> he cared about us, and the news. and that is a rare commodity. >> it has been 28 years since i wrote news summary copyor jim lehrer and i still have his voice in my head. is it correct, is it fair andin as few words as possible. >> i remember i would go down to the control room and watched the stories i produced as they aired and one of the screens othe wall showed jim lehrer and he would watch the pieces as they aired and he looked disinterested which wasn't good but sometimes he would get interested and lean forward and smile. and that was cool. >> jim wase lur best but hardest teacher.

the one you wanted to do you best wor for. he held you to very high standards and heno let you when you didn't get it right. but when you got it right, he let you know and others knew as well. >> he would represent the best of journalis he quib the guing light for students that is accurate and fair. >> integrity was the keyword and still is. that was jim's gift to all of us and should be remembered for it. >> watching jim as a kid growing up, you knew you wereatching up the staard. it was what journalism can be and what it should be. you saw it could be skeptical, tough but fairll andf those things are at the cor of what we do. >> jim leaves behind a core set principles, you our viewers

are just as smart if not smarter and it's our job to present the news and you can make up your own mind. >> it felt like i was a par of the "newshour" family. >> a lot of people looked up to jim as a reference of what true and goods journalism i and for us here, we are and will be simplified. >>e sent an email, good job and it meant a lot. the one, not b many, each and every one of them. >> we were havg a meeting in his office and giving us his advice about whatoo it t to become a journalist and he said if youear a fire siren or police siren and you don't wonder where it's going or what it's going for for, then you don't have a drive to be a journalist.

>> my grandfather introduced my granddaughter who works forim lehrer and that is the testament ofim what did and this organization. it has launched careers ofre hu of journalists and walk around a little bit taller. >> while the other channels made a business of yelling at people, he showed us night after night that it was, in fact, possible to create a program where people could disagree agreebly about matters that jim, thanks for taking a chance. >> he alwaysei felt f stories were important and had to be told. and iember in the monday morning, someone suggested a story that nobody heard anything about, jim would say we are going to cover it. who else wld do it?

>> about 19 years ago, i was diagnosed with cancer and it was very scary for me and ver nervous and jim lehrer found me walking in the hall one day and said to me, your job is to tell me whatever it is i needecause whatever you need. >>e loved the "newshour" family andoved the news and for that, we are all the better. >> and i'm convinced why he connected with millions and so good with what he did. >> to these days, i will think what would jim do and i know journalistic standards will be engrained with me. here are the rules he had as

read by our staff. >> rule number one, do nothing i caenot d >> number two, cover, write and prestot every with the care i would want if the story >> number three, assume there is one other side or version to every story. >> number four, assume that viewers a smart, caring and as good a person as i am. number five, assume the same. >> number six,ssume personal lives are a private ma matter unless it mandates otherwise. >> number 7, and clearly labele ything. >> number eight, do not use anonymous sources unless in rare or monumental occasio. number nine, i am not in the entertainment business. >> it has been said 100 times,
