here was kevin mccarthy and devon nunes on fox news last week. >> we had john ratcliffe destroy taylor'shole argument. >> congressman ratcliffe tell us what happened. >> we can't really talk about it but what we're fighting is just his question in 90 seconds refuted everything of what adam schiff puts out there. there's no quid pro quo. maria: congressman we know that you're limited in terms of what you can say about these testimonies but what can you tell us about that quid pro quo argument? >> well, what the democrats wanted to believe is that ambassador taylor's testimony would support what the whistleblower said when in fact his testimony established the opposite. he established as a matter of law and as a matter of fact, that a quid pro quo involving military aid could not have occurred on july 25 in the call between trump and z elinski, because neither any ukraine yankees was aware there was a hold on military aid on july 25 so as much as the democrats who quickly tried to spin-out of that and say well when we said quid pro quo on july 25, we really meant some time in august , and

house republicans, minority leader kevin mccarthy, oversight committee jim jordan and intel member devon nunes sent a letter to the inspector general michael atkinson inquiring into whistleblower requirements changed. and according to attorneys who represent the whistleblower, the law has not changed. and there is no requirement that whistleblowers stick to first-hand information in their complaints. precisely because those filings are designed to trigger official investigations that would uncover such first-hand information. >> and the theory stems from reportingly the conservative outlet the federalist that is a previous whistleblower form stressed the importance of first-hand information in complaints sent to congress a new form which asks respondents to check a box if they are reporting first or secondhand information was posted days before the ukraine whistleblower's complaint. and a clarifying statement yesterday, the office of the inspector general of the intelligence community said quote, by law, the complainant need not possess first-hand information in order to file a complaint. in t

from debriefing president trump on ukraine because a former aide to republican congressman devon announ nunesnvinced the president that he was the national security adviser instead of colonel vindman. testified that he was told this directly by his boss at the time, nsc senior director for u.s. and russian foreign affairs, fiona hill. hill told vindman that she and national security adviser john bolton thought it best to exclude vindman from the debriefing to avoid an uncomfortable situation, he said. joining our discussion now is chris whipple. he literally wrote the book on how a white house is supposed to be run. it is called "the gatekeepers: how the white house chiefs of staff define every presidency." except mick mulvaney, apparently, chris, at this point. trump has had some -- has had the worst relationships with white house chiefs of staff ever. this is a fascinating level, what we saw this weekend where let him go home and not even tell him what's happening. >> yeah, let me just begin by conceding what we've been trying to tell me for a long time, lawrence, which is the subtitle of m

devon nunez. congressman nunes. thanks for being with us today.ant to get your retook the arrest of two individual this week who supposedly worked with rudy giuliani. i would like to find out if you know how they do or don't tie into rudy, as well as the u.s. ambassador to the ukraine, maria yovanovich. >> thanks for having me on. the first thing i thought was hilarious about the two. they were first described as ukrainians that were arrested that were friends with rudy giuliani. that was the story for the first few hours. then they found out they were mayor and citizens. then they were described as foreign-born. okay. this is just more of an attempt by the main-stream media to run air cover on the russia hoax which is turned into the ukrainian hoax. i don't know who these people are. but they are american citizens. american citizens cannot commit campaign finance fraud. it said clearly in the indictment no one knew they were committing campaign of finance fraud. just because rudy giuliani knows someone, it's just more of the same to pump people u

here and what happened between the explosive meeting between the president and speaker pelosi and devon nunes in syria why he is leading the charge in congress to hold turkey accountable and the senator will be here, plus senate judiciary chairman how is he preparing for the possible impeachment trial, plus more of my exclusive interview with the secretary of state mike pompeo this morning could pulling troops from

region there in the mid east but back here at home earlier in the program one of your colleagues devon nuneshing he said that really struck me among other things. he said very quickly that the intelligence committee has not had a briefing on some of these kinds of matters in about a month, because they've been focus focused on impeachment. aunt that kind of interesting the contrast of the big big moments happening, these big challenges around the world and the house intelligence committee is focused on domestic politics. >> yeah, that's all the intel community is doing, i mean, all the intel committee is doing right now is focusing on impeachment. i think representative nunes is absolutely correct. ed: well congressman i don't want to interrupt you or cut you short but here is the president of the united states. we've been anticipating him let's hear from the president. president trump: last night, the united states brought the world 's number one terrorist leader to justice. abu bakr al-baghdadi is dead. he was the founder and leader of isis, the most ruthless and violent terror organizatio

nunes is with us. also he's a house minority leader, that would be -- i guess you're not a leader yet. you hope to be one day. minority whip, steve scalise. devon, i know you can't tell us everything but my sources are pretty clear. it's a complete adam schiff shutdown. republicans can't ask questions, republicans can't do pretty much everything. you have read it this so-called resolution. this resolution, newt gingrich offered bill clinton in 1988? >> i think people should be asking themselves, especially if you're a democrat, where is jerry nadler? nobody's seen him for like two and a half months. he is like the missing men in action. so clearly schiff and the intelligence community democrats, they completely obliterated the intelligence committee. it's now known as the impeachment committee. that resolution is just more of the same and i'll tell you, you mention that you haven't seen this in your many years in radio and tv, i have never in my life seen anything like what happened today. i mean, they have been bad and most of these depositions but to interrupt us continually, to coach the witness to decide whether or not what we are going to
