lindsey graham announcing the doj watchdog will testify before the senate judiciary committee on hisinto potential fisa abuses. the hearing is set for december 11th so what impact will this have on the impeachment inquiry? joining me to discuss his executive director of the american principles project terry schilling, thank you for joining us, we appreciate it. let's bring up lindsey graham's statement. is that i appreciate all the hard work by mister horowitz and his team. he will deliver a detailed report of what he found regarding his investigation along with recommendations as to how to make our judicial and investigative system better. how will this impact the ongoing impeachment hearing? >> this has the potential to turn the entire impeachment sham on its head which will be a going to find out in the inspector general's report is whether or not the obama administration and democrats in charge of the doj at the time weapon eyes doj to subvert a major nominee for the republican party in 2016 which isn't that crazy being that president obama weapon eyes to the irs to go after cons

ran investigations not of this magnitude obviouslou but when i was a chief counsel on the senate judiciary committee 15, 12 years ago. and yoknow how we did them? we had depositions behind closed doors d staff members like me, unknowunand nameless and hard-working sff members would take long depositions of people under oath who werspecial witnesses and an it for hours and hours and then there will be blic hearings coming following that but we didn't waste the public's time and then t members of the senate judiciary committee will have an rt opy based on what the staff had done, ask more ed direct questions, st, amli q questioned and the preliminary work to build the case so that other people can later do their job in public and that wl happen now but a senate trial is not like a criminal trial. i'll give you a way in which it isadically different. in a criminal trial, the jurors are not allowed to know anythin about se or much less go on television shs and talk out it, they are not allowed to know the defendant, lerally every single senate, all 100 of themorre on the r in some way for being for ores

menashi's hearing testimony before the senate judiciary committee was an embarrassment. he refused to answer basic questions from either democrats or republicans, basically saying to the judiciary committee my experience, what i have done, what i believe is none of your business. it was a deeply troubling nomination, to the point where even republican colleagues on the committee were chiding him to answer a question if he wanted a lifetime appointment to the secretary highest court in the land. he continued to refuse, but he still won all of their votes when his nomination came up last week. apparently, mr. menashi is hoping that in this busy week, we're going to hold this floor vote and nobody will notice. well, a lot of americans will notice, especially the tens of thousands of americans who have been the victims of the for-profit college scams. remember those schools? you've heard a lot about them, haven't you? all these schools that said they were colleges and universities. they were in it for a buck. many of them turned out to be frauds. they weren't really colleges

this information will likely come out, if it's on december the 9th, with a hearing in the senate judiciary committeen the 11th. potentially right in the middle of the house judiciary committee proceeding with an impeachment inquiry. so, it could certainly make things colorful. m. tia johnson, thanks so much for being with us. i appreciate it? >> thank you for having me. >> president trump says if he gets impeached, he wants a trial. but there is a lot to get through before lawmakers get to that. we'll check out the next stepping in impeachment and explain how this could all unfold. from all of the journalists at fox news, this is fox news reporting. ♪ without my medication, my small tremors would be extreme. without it, i cannot write my name. i was diagnosed with parkinson's. i had to retire from law enforcement. it was devastating. one of my medications is three thousand dollars per month. prescription drugs do not work if you cannot afford them. for sixty years, aarp has been fighting for people like larry. and we won't stop. join us in fighting for what's right. >> john: president trump says he

the senate judiciary committee scheduled a vote on his nomination tomorrow morning.ing, mr. menashi's nomination appears already to be in trouble. if they do vote on him tomorrow, that would be the third effort they've made to try to call a vote on him. his nomination keeps getting rolled over to new date after new date, because he is one of donald trump's most controversial nominees which is saying something given the roster donald trump has tried to turn into judges. we've talked about him on the show and his paper trail. for example on an italian prime minister's proclamation of the spearuratety of western civilization over islam, he says quote, he did nothing other than state the obvious, the obvious inferiority of islam. he also wrote how offensive it was that the matthew shepherd murder got so much attention. that obviously didn't need as much attention as it got. he also opined on the movement of campus rape. he said campus gineo centrists are throwing around these accusations but there's no similar leeway for men. and there's of course his law review article

horowitz will in fact appear before the senate judiciary committee. we will deliver a detailed report of what found in his investigations -- along with, there it is. recommendations as to how to make our traditional investigative systems better again. that's all coming up december 11th. meanwhile, bret, democrats have yet to invite the president, at least formally, to appear on capitol hill to take part in the impeachment inquiry, but despite his many complaints about the process, in a bit of a surprise today, the president said he wouldn't rule it out. >> to spending stomach depending on your perspective, it was either incredibly audacious or just plain inconceivable. president trump, despite bitter complaints about his fairness, tweeting his willingness to testify before the house impeachment inquiry. even though i did nothing wrong to wrong and don't like giving crowd ability to there's no due process hoax i'm a hero, i like the idea, and will in order to give congress focus again, strongly consider it. that online episode coming after a maelstrom

senate judiciary committee chairman the graham, hand over documents tied to the bidens and ukraine.raham wants more details on any calls biden may have had with the ukrainian president about the firing of the top prosecutor and anything related to burisma, he was on the board. donald trump is accused biden of pressuring ukraine to protect his son from controversy. new calls for israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu to resign. he is now formally charged with fraud and breach of trust and accepting bribes in three different controversies. this as me -- this is the first time a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime in israel. netanyahu denies the accusations calling them a witchhunt. supporters and critics held dueling protests in jerusalem as israel gears up for a possible third election this year. the navy is pausing review betty gallagher to determine if he should lose his seal trident. this follows a demand from the president who tweeted the navy will not be taking away eddie gallagher's trident pen. this case was handled very badly from the beginning, get back t

durbin: the senator from north carolina and i are both serving as you are on the senate judiciary committee. what i've asked for is a hearing before the immigration subcommittee so that senator lee can bring his bill forward. i can bring my bill forward, and we can try to work out our differences between us. that is usually how the senate operates. unfortunately senator lee announced on the floor last week he's opposed to any hearing on his bill. he doesn't want there to be a hearing and a markup. i think that's unfortunate. it really does not lead us to a bipartisan agreement that might actually solve this problem. and i might also say i think there is a fundamental flaw in senator lee's approach. he would take care of the issues facing those from india at the expense of immigrants from other countries. virtually every other country who would be denied the opportunity to apply for green cards while we take care of the backlog from this one nation. i don't think that's the way to approach this. if as senator from north carolina said we truly believe that more legal immigration of those with
