but as soon as you start saying look this could impact the 2020 alexion the courts tend to act a little bit quicker so this is a big step by the democrats the republicans there saying that the democrats are acting outside the jurisdiction and not doing it whether it's been done in the past the reality is that previous impeachment hearings have started in committees in the congress it's then going to the floor of the house and then a vote at the senate so strictly speaking they're following procedure but the republicans are trying to say this is not the way these things are done that's not how it was done during bill clinton's case but this is the reality that don't trump is facing and impeachment is moving closer so let's talk about his vice president mike pence who has you know for the most part stood by president trump has not been critical of anything he has done in relation to ukraine so what does that mean for him. well we often say there's very little daylight between mike pence and donald trump but it might pence might feel that it was slightly thrown under the bus about a week o

by investigating someone who may be known from its opponents in the 2020 alexion but we should be very clear about what we're talking about right now that it's not that there are more whistle complaints no more official whistleblower complaints in some ways this actually helps us understand the process that the that the inspector general for the intelligence community went through once you receive that initial whistleblower complaint that is he spoke to others to corroborate that initial whistleblower complaint what we're talking about now is corroboration of the one of the only whistleblower complaint that is people who listen to the conversation were able to say yes we did have those concerns so that's what we're talking about right now but that this person who is being referred to as another whistleblower is now being represented by a lawyer which could prove significant as we move this process forward but there it remains only one official whistleblower complaint nevertheless it does at least appears a possible pressure on the u.s. president's there was always talk that more could

there were concerns that donald trump was asking the ukrainian government to get involved in the 2020 alexion by investigating one of the tribes potential opponents on the 22 of the election joe biden and if the existence of a 2nd whistleblower undercuts trumps argument i was trying from south reacting to this. that wasn't the only argument of the trump administration has been putting forward old trump is maintained and that's one of the reasons why he's quite happy about other countries to look into all of this but it's part of his role as president to look out for the national security of the united states and if joe biden is vice president or any of the other democrats or even if the whole russia get investigation began as a result of malfeasance of some sort corruption maybe in the intelligence community maybe the democratic party if the ukrainians were involved that it's his job to get to the bottom of it this is all part of the national security so he's continuing down that line he's saying look i think as someone who safeguards foreign policy national security it's in my right to be qu

from this this is a bit of a political gamble for both parties as they move forward we've got it alexion about just a little more than a year away. it can really but we've been talking all the republicans with let's listen in to won't the house minority leader kevin mccarthy say we now found after the fact that adam shift and his staff actually met with the whistleblower the only person in this congress who knows who the whistleblower is is adam schiff the only person who is withholding the whistleblower from coming forward is that i'm sure. we look at the phone call for a quid pro quo somebody has to take an action for another there's nothing in that phone call that is wrong or impeachable. if you had the transcripts that we've been going for more than 3 weeks that no one's been able to read you would again go forward was wondering why this is moving forward no one is my understanding down there has ever said there was a quid pro quo for the same fear that hamilton said 100 more than 200 years ago is what watched came forth today so this isn't about the republican party this is about th

about a witch hunt about something that is about to go on that's coming in the future namely the 2020 alexionis a different thing there are a number of people in the base who may not stay on board and that so all of this is being looked at through the lens how this will play out for individual candidates in the 2020 a lecture so i think we're at a potential tipping point and it will see. the where this all winds up and where its financial backers lined up where his base in terms of population and vote lines are and where his own administration line up and if and that's what we're seeing now is everything seems a little more fragile a little more and balanced and the energy which is being pushed into this in in these hearings is quite intense and it's just one person after another done in a very clean fashion in terms of names representations and the kinds of statements that are be given out so there's a lot of amendment up momentum on the part of these 3 committees in the house and that's going to captivate the narrative for a long time and it's and so the real question is how about play out
