very easy to put. the expected result is an acquittal the republicans who hold a fifty three seat majority in thee senate. of almost all. three of the chip against it is of coursese face. use of counter second i is obstruction of the congress it'll valves amount of phone calls on july the twenty fifth between. ukraine mr. queues of using it is always a confessional aid as leverage to make it to the on american citizen trump's police arrive showed. this process to. at the same time though cause interference with the us of the process trump is denied the allegations and with the- as- one is the expected that it will take that as it happens live. the democrats thank. this is certainly the process and

that already threatening to subpoena trump's former national city. as a john wilson who's- on. to reveal his book were blocked by the white house who come into this impeachment trial so we'll let the word from washington this is we go us into here so that. let's go to our core that chemical just on the who is awaiting us i kept on getting to you- run through what we're expecting to. well as there is not much suspense as to where the out. of this vote on the two counts as you said the- of power in the obstruction of. public image. will come. will it be acquitted we know though is that there will be at least one republican senator who voted against ecuador senator. many of you talk he had a just a couple of hours ago eighty a

very powerful and emotional speech on the floor and to explain why it would be a voting with the democrats for the room. of president breaking his party said that. any sleep last night thinking alright he said he knew that that there would be backlash from at the party itself as well as from at the present. but that could not. eight is. hoped to. then in office. as he- simply a give me a holing abuse of how and that's speech wass in powerful it's so in a find. well received we see as the demo assigned with the law of people. the courage of an mit romney who are we have is nolan's is standing for reelection anytime soon but it is a big break or from the room can a party. it

shows a minute ride a little. believe e it with h that room.. party he was this only s. the river party back in twenty twelve the have the- a party behind him and now it looks like he will be include only i sleep but he will. go to for the remote of the press. two do there are democrats. it's simply a conservative who still haven't confirmed whether they would be voting for removal or and knocks at but doug jones of alabama very conservativiv state hehe is up for reelection but he announced- earlier today and- thank. for the removal i don't trust those. mean that you'll like campaign but- at his ankle. and his- sortie as a set- and his duty is a to vote for the

removal of donald trump. and it's one of these things kept that i'm- people in that. case i now make are they going to put themselves in jeopardy up what they think is right looking at the evidence. we'll see. supposed course in. was anything but the cat. exactly well let none of that the senators so and it has to be said that on either side and made it seem like this was a thing to be impartial at any point we have courses the song and- analyst jury and leader. talking according. with the president's. s. t. o. graham saying. out that and he not going to be an impartial juror asks ass the th ere requires a but on the democratic side and also a lot of senators. he said that. he and remove at the press this even before this

impeachment process and so- it was on both sides very a political and- a political it is still a political and the way- you see the spin already is that's and the- answer saying what. the president will be impeached forever that's what nancy pelosi's and as the republicans are likely at the end of this vote going to stay here it will have been put in for ever. in the senate so it is really at eighty a device. senate at the private because house and why did it. it has not the delay. how most not on this of mp and room what was true a form ago when the for and began is almost a to a eggs to the same now. same as it is- now at t democrats only as of te

ball down republicans over a backing and their president and as long trump's as support j. going to look it so- is that a home in the division. see play out when in the house or in the senate it. with will later on you mentioned on. okay and while we have a moment before the senator vote. clearly her actions at this of the speech i'd because being seen by supporters as something that really. she the divisions in the country she of course describing his some state of the union speech as- basically a catalog of lies i'm paraphrasing it cools but i think it's not too far away but she's at. her words were a manifesto of and missed a truce and that's why as she said she

err ripped up and the pages of and that speech. was asked about it as was being hardware. and she said that that was courteous at to do okay during at the altar it is so. basically saying he could have done much worse a she had a house in matches i look. around here but we. eight of the- wind up i am see at that that number refuse the up of at the speed and the comments wait a raw really in by they the president and at the house it bar he is at the between the republic and democrat and that's pelosi for this. it may and that she spoke to them we- once this is all after this impeachment trial is over how are they going to move

on because what the americans can agree on emma craft's and republicans at. the car we need to move on and i think. there is of them want to back off the report want to pass and how does that happen when the president and the house speaker can't even talk to each other let alone and negotiate and discuss. of the union what kinds was a hard. volley over engine and it's- very interesting to see what the statement of donald trump will be after this is a- because at the white house says said there will be some sortt of state will it. arrive eight minutes. yet we would form it will. we'll have a statement and it's going to be mom more. and much more aggressive tone against the democrats at his state of the union speech. kevin good studies thank you very much indeed canada course turning

our attention straight away to what's happening. in the senate chamber that show you those that we coming in life i see that the chief justice john roberts sousa presiding and present. taking in the home. he start moans of the impeachment resident to donald trump so impeaching and in the us constitutition an impartial process the president is called the book out of a total of forty five us president since in the there are three present. to quit. they are johnson which in broke and donald trump jobs of the say the case against trump is more serious than that of the against others. he said to be clear. pop it seems there also some cries of a cover up in process here from twenty four coming at like with this. it's a crucial vote but for

many the impeachment is a foregone conclusion. they senators are expected to quits president donald trump overviews of power and destruction congress for a public. hi but for all sorts of reasons is probably a good idea to bring this thing up close here in the near future. the woman in the world one i'm- over the bottle full witness is. that's one to hear from former security john bolton office which that he had written a book which details how the president as you. the gay press. joe biden. in exchange for military aid democrats need for republicans to break ranks and vote in favor of consultant to testify but managed to any sway to republicans is susan collins. such an the monex admits such act were wrong but not impeachable paulista makowski hit out at the trial as

russians and floor. the lady three in a disapappointt impepeachment process for democrats on the second day none of their amendments to trial ruled by two through witching moves to hey key evidence. and down the test this. richmond trial in america's street to o exclude this is now. this countntry is headed towards the greatest cover up since watergate. democrats had hoped for so long drawn out process would embarrass the president ahead of elections in november but he did his republican have run it trump instead. this story how little for us to take you back to the us senate web were waiting at in use the senate. voting that in this case- to feel yet donald trumps intervention trial this of course and his two making them up forty states. and that would be for that built on the street.

roberts was great to have you with us at times like this because of insight is invaluable- into. what's happening at. a bit more about the cons what it it all means and what it could mean going forward. well you know i. listen to that through just now and- our correspondents- in washington- your own talking about morris to come to a stop with the democrats lead. they will still. they're going to make it to lexell there will be leaks between now and the like but we may very well see- john bolton testified before the house of representatives. decided yet. you will for him to test. if he is so good will john bolton you do that when you go before the house rep senses best about if he does. not the information that he has

i could be devastating. this you know what date how this is going to play out over the next few this is certainly the ending of this in this it trumpet. is it's not good to have even a minute it is going vote. but does it mean. politically because this is always really essentially a by that how is this going to play out in the election year twenty twenty in the u united states nobody thought the too. turn against. it was you. question was going to be further down the was this going to play against him off him in the leg all rights the that. reaction as we as we heard from our- jim is he's ready to has gone up a the loss we go note. the d. he's on a run of his head. the

no my results. st the speech. the democrats look up pulling ohio form is well with the s. of money in a in a he's like a press a role. nine in any other staging it this is the that's why they're bins to a on the back of that now of the fifth percent of the month but this a long way to go. but you. is fourteen. in and if the league started in the democrats growing callll in thingngs get o around for quickly all of us were talking the showing you is so. is in the- hi that on the wall take full screen to give our views a battle a pre of what's happening that and on this three sit in part of

what's it us tomorrow. it is number the this is. see house represent. feel by then the house by democrats the san dominates the- on this is up of this of the prop that i it within six row now this pop of the big issue the amount you. send not just with this administration the previous administration we had similar problems. and the question will be increasingly i. think you whether. or not. the us because she she- is in need for. one very well. now us. does not arise. well when the call was. it was the case is my own in the united states whether has not been the case polarization really being a bit. the civil all. a case in point but since then we've seen in other stages

as well. and i wonder to what people. think now whether something has to be done l let's look at the balance of power between- residents. reliligion the bomb that congress let's take a listen to what's haening in the senate chamber now recording that was also the first account. out of a piece of. i'll be. guguilty mr anima s cinema guilty miss smith. ms smith guilty stabenow ms stabenow guilty mister solomon. mister sullivan not guilty mr chester mr tester guilty mr fan. mr fan not guilty mr tell us mister taylor's not guilty mystery to me. mystery to a not
