julia ainsley, what do you know? >> reporter: well, nicole, you laid it out perfectly.f this indictment goes through, which seems more likely today, it will be incredibly polarizing. some people see andrew mccabe as someone who's been caught in the crosshairs, that what he did was really not very legal, white house council for clinton and obama was recently acquitted for and that is lying to federal investigators. and they say his statements to investigators both the fbi and the inspector general of the justice department were not as contradictory as they are being made out to be. and of course the root of what he would be lying about that disclosure to the "wall street journal" in 2016 was not illegal in itself. others say that in order to preserve the fbi, this is something that needs to be prosecuted. and so today we learn from a source familiar with the decision that now deputy attorney general jeff rosen said, no. in fact, mccabe cannot appeal to avoid criminal prosecution. imminent. but we understand there are still a lot of moving pieces in all of this, but it's

our hans nichols and evelin farkus and julia ainsley. the whole issue of impeachment that geoff bennett just talks about. in this particular issue, there was a quick pro quo that president trump offered the ukraine president in the conversation. the justice department could clear some of these up but they say they are not going to. >> it was the justice department gave the intelligence committee not to give over the whistle blower complaint. the heart of that, ali, whether or not there was a quick pro quo. we know the u.s. was holding $250 million funding temporarily from ukraine. the question is was that discussed on the call and that would be the heart of any impeachment inquiry. it was the office of legal council that gave that advice. if that sounds familiar, ali, that's because it is the same quadrant and the same council at the justice department that is said that you can't indict a sitting president when we were looking at the mueller report. it is the office of legal council used to be a little known. about why they may have made

julia ainsley is joining me with more on what she's hearing from her sources.ough your latest reporting. >> jacob soboroff and i obtained two sets of documents, which taken on their own it's hard to see how the trump administration made this dix when it comes to curbing immigration coming from guatemala, the single biggest contributor to undocumented immigration this year. the first is research about climate change. it shows people starving in the western highlands because they can't get enough food due to drought and a fungus on coffee leaves. the second document is what they did about this. instead of focusing on programs like usaid which provides farmers with supplemental income so they can provide for their crops and feed their families, instead they cut aid and did more law enforcement in guatemala, providing 90 people from i.c.e. and customs and border protection, equipment to try to beef up law enforcement to control immigrants coming through gaut ma on the way to the united states. basically what you have a the trump administration ignoring science, ign

justice correspondent julia ainsley at the doj, geoff bennett on capitol hill. kristen, let me start with you. we just heard from president trump a few moments ago. what did he have to say? >> reporter: well, craig, not surprisingly he was defiant. he tried to argue this is an extension of the democrats' witch hunt against him. he quickly pivoted to the economy. we'll play his sound in just a second. taking a step back, it's giving us a preview, craig, into what we can expect to see from this president over the next several months as this inquiry gets under way. we're going to see a president who is going to argue there's nothing to see here, there was no explicit quid pro quo. geoff is going to break down what the democrats will argue in the counter to that. they'll tease out the fact that you do have him essentially pressing the president of ukraine to investigate his chief political rival, former vice president joe biden. it just underscores the extent to which, politically speaking, this is going to be tricky for president trump, craig. here he is at the u.n

joining me for more on the story is julia ainsley. >> this is interesting.is is an effort to push asylum seekers further south. the united states entered into a similar deal with gaut uatemala. if you are an asylum seeker you will be asked did you pass through elsal va do on your way here. if you did you would be ineligible in the united states and could be sent back there. this really matters for people from el salvador and other countries south of there. he sat down with the foreign minister of el salvador today to sign this agreement. she was hopeful that there would be more opportunities such as investments in the united states but right now immigrant rights activists are furious saying they must claim asylum and go back to the country with one of the highest homicide rates in the world. they say there's no way this is a country that is safe for asylum seekers and that the united states is forcing this before they have really done the work to make this a safer place. >> julia ainsley, thank you so much. let's go back to georgetown. it's friday. you've go
