julian smith did ask the speaker robert newton to called the speaker robert newton to called the assemblye wouldn't do that unless there was agreement by all parties. now it is clear we do have that agreement. i think the feeling would be with the irish and british governments is that they bond that assembly up and running, evenif bond that assembly up and running, even if there is no one there, just actually up and running tonight. certainly tomorrow. because there is a danger, they are opposed to part of this and be some of the grassroots, if the members of the assembly go back to the grassroots and touted them, maybe they will get and touted them, maybe they will get a lot of feedback, negative feedback about this and that might put pressure on them. but if the assembly is up and running ben it is harder to collapse again. they might have reservations about it but at least it is up and running. i would expect may be some progress on that tonight or even the word is possibly tomorrow. a quick thought about the impact on people's lives (whispers) peoples everyday life there? because we h

smith. is giuliani contradicting himself here? which scenario would be more beneficial to the trump team? is he right about the role chief justice robertsld play? >> regarding chief justice roberts, in order to dismiss a case in the senate, that would be up to a vote and it's unli unlikely to see the vote even ending in a 50-50 tie that would allow roberts to make such a decision, right? you would need to have a certain number of republican senators come over, but just barely not enough to get it over the threshold where the dismissal would be, you know, put to the side based on a vote. and it's really difficult to see chief justice roberts if such a 50-50 vote did take place be willing to put his thumb on the scale that hard and dismiss the case outright before anything is even heard -- anything is presented from the house. the scenario giuliani is presenting is highly, if not downright impossible to take place. so difficult to see it happening. >> in the meantime, you had speaker pelosi who had been holding the articles of impeachment to try to negotiate for a trial that would include some witnesses and documents. so when she does han

roberts and the senate sworn in today, but questions are looming over whether the senate will call witnesses. so joining me now for some perspective on this, veterans of two other modern day impeachment processes. guy smithent advisor, and john dean, whose watergate testimony was key in ending nixon's presidency. so they know. they know the score here. good evening, gentlemen. john, i'll start with you. nixon was never in the position trump was in today. he resigned before the senate trial could begin. and you say the charges against trump are far worse. why do you say that? >> well, they involve national security. nixon was involved in covering up a bungled burglary -- actually two bungled burglaries. one that was known, one that was unknown. really, the abuses of his power surfaced as a result of the watergate investigation showing his things like revenge against enemies, the misuse of the cia and the irs and the fbi. those all surfaced as a result of the inquiry into watergate. so that's what he would have stood trial for, and he realized he was dead guilty, and he was going to be impeached. at that era, he lost the senate because he lied to them so often. and they finally said, enough, we can't suppo
