side of the aisle, house democratic policy and communications cochair michigan congresswoman debbie dingellshe said the reason was in part because it has to be bipartisan moving forward, but thursday's big vote was partisan, so how are democrats going to convince the american public that this is not politically motivated? >> well, we need to make sure that they are air-operate transparent hearings, i agree with the speaker this past summer as i said before, i was -- i was receiving normallous amount of pressure, communicating with me a lot directly and i was very reticent and i'm worried about how divided the country is. for me it changed when a whistleblower had gone to inspector general, that president trump, inspector general, ruled it was credible threat and urgent and potential danger to national security, that requires following the facts, that requires investigation, thursday's vote was a process of how this investigation will continue, i think we need to make sure it's open and transparent, the american people see as much as they can like me i have not participated in any of the hea

with me is congresswoman debbie dingell. she serves as a senior whip.hank you for being with me this sunday. with the public hearing phase of the impeachment getting underway this week, what do you want to hear from three witnesses we just spelled out with marshall cohen? what do you want them to solidify or say? >> i want them to speak the truth. i think these public hearings are very important because we need to be transparent. the american people need to understand what the issues are to get the facts and we need to bring them along. i'm very worried at how divided this country is. and i think the president tries to pit people against each other. so now public hearings that are transparent in telling the facts help everybody understand what those issues are. >> so republicans -- you've heard them. they have put forward a list of other witnesses that they want to testify during this phase. and among them, the names are joe biden's son hunter and the whistleblower. in fact, gop senator lindsey graham said any impeachment will be invalid if those two do

>> i think debbie dingell is right.ave to show how we relate to the lives of people in this country. we have to explain what we're doing to keep them safe with gun safety legislation, what we're doing to protect our environment, what we're doing to protect workers in this country. these are critical issues that we need to talk about. the house has acted on these bills controlled by democrats. the senate controlled by mitch mcconnell has been a grave-yaya on all these issues. >>> let me ask you something that has not gotten a lot of attention that paves the way for virginia to be the final state to ratify the equal rights amendment. it would ban -- how likely do you think this actually happens? you do have some states that voted for it decades ago that have since rescinded those decisions? >> well, poppy, most americans believe we have an equal rights amendment in our constitution. we do not. there's been no democratic state that adopted a constitution since world war ii that doesn't include the equal rights amendment. m

joining me now, debbie dingell of michigan.ongresswoman, we appreciate you taking the time. >> good to be with you. >> i want to begin with the whistleblower who of course started this and public comments from a rally in kentucky yesterday from senator rand paul. have a listen. >> the whistleblower needs to come before congress as a material witness because he worked for joe biden at the same time hunter biden was getting money from corrupt oligarchs. i say tonight to the media, do your job and print his name. >> as you know, whistleblower laws are designed to protect the identity of whistleblowers so that they feel protected as they share information or evidence of wrongdoing. by attempting -- encouraging the outing of him or her both senator paul but also the president himself, are they encouraging breaking the law? >> yes, quite frankly, they are. those whistleblower laws are there for a very real reason, which is for our national security to protect people so that their lives aren't endangered or their jobs aren't endangere

debbie dingell of michigan, a democrat, also quick to tell you that part. >> sure. when we look back on this 20 years hence, when history looks back on this, this will not be the vote. this was nancy pelosi taking temperatures. this was nancy pelosi trying to get a little heat off of her members who are under fire for the perception that they are not operating at an above-board fashion. this is nancy pelosi sounding the depths to see what's going on. this is an incremental step, but we heard from her today -- she told bloomberg, "look, we are going to have a vote this month. we are going to have open hearing starting this month, and we are going to have a vote by the end of the year." >> harris: okay. tim morrison, kind of backing up the president, defending the president, saying he didn't think there was anything illegal on the call with ukraine's president. he just thought it might be complicated politically. does this mean the democrats are running out of options when they say the president committed any crimes? >> they don't need to show the president committed

. >> that could happen next week as well, debbie dingell is joining me, a democrat from michigan. glad to have you with us. i'm curious, do you expect the president or his counsel to show up? >> i never make the mistake of peeking for the president or his counsel i think it's well established that it's unpredictabl unpredictable. they is said they will not. when they set up it was unfair and it was to allow him to have process, to be able to ask questions by his lawyer. i would encourage him to participate, let the american miami see his side. let them ask questions. i don't know what he's going to do. i do know that would be established so it would be a fair and transparent process. >> we are supposed to know by sunday evening. >> i don't engage in deadlines until i am actually sitting in that hearing i'll let you figure that out. the last time they held a high profile hearing investigating the president that turned into a bit of a circus so how do you ensure this time around it's not the same results? >> i think the way this process was set up to visit this, i think it's very im

. >> even members like congresswoman debbie dingell, democrat of michigan don't know whether the president will send a representative to next week's impeachment hearing. melanie zanona is back with a preview, she is congressional reporter for "politico" and a returning veteran on this broadcast. melanie, give folks at minimum, a kind of viewers guide how will these hearings that we've become used to now in the intel committee, how will it seem different in judiciary? >> this phase is going to look a whole lot different when it shifts to the judiciary committee. the intel hearings were focused on fact witnesses, gathering evidence, and putting it on the table. when the judiciary committee takes over, they are putting this into context. the first hearing they are going to try to define what is an impeachable defense, they are going to bring in constitutional and legal experts, and democrats know this is their last chance to move public support in support of impeachment. i think both sides are going to be coming in guns ablazing. you have members on both sides who are fierce fighters for thei

. >>> turn to congresswoman debbie dingell of michigan senior when and co-chair of 9 house policy and communications committee. first, i have to ask. you might have insight into this the rest of us don't. in idea when to expect the intelligence report? >> the staff is working on it, making sure it is thorough and accurate. it i myself am waiting like the american people to read it. i'm not on those committees and have no inside intelligence but i think they are trying to target it for next week. >> you expect you'll learn anything new we haven't already learned from the hearings in that report? >> i do believe that there may -- we've got to always protect our national security. there was testimony in classified settings, but i think they will summarize it in a way that not only i, my colleagues and in both parties, but the american people can understand and what they recommend to the judiciary committee. i think it's very important that we have a very, this is really a very serious time. i think one i never thought i'd have to vote on something like this. i take it very seriously. we'

so this hour we bring in the democratic congresswoman from michigan, debbie dingell. nice to talk to you. you have been one of the members of your caucus to reserve judgment. i'm interested, after the past week of open testimony, has your mind changed? >> well, deeply disturbed i i think the thing that bothered me the most was when the president tweeted or used his twitter account to attack a witness while she was testifying yesterday, which was l ambassador yovanovitch. i think congresswoman and liz cheney and other republican women members who said it was inappropriate and it was inappropriate. leland: marsha blackburn also said that. is that really impeachable? >> it was concerning. i think these hearings are very important. i think these open transparent hearings are very important. i think the american people need to understand what the issues are. leland: right. but typically, though, impeachment is to impeach someone for a crime, whether it was the watergate break-in, whether it was bill clinton's lies. has this gotten too confusing for the american people, som

. >> john: debbie dingell articulated the democrats position. how are republicans reacting?republicans are saying they are unified. they make the case that they do not believe house intelligence chairman adam schiff closed the deal. here's a sample of the republican side. >> what we all agree is this is not an impeachable offense here. and at the end of the day, every allegation they have made, quid pro quo, bribery, extortion, nobody has any of that. it's very plain to see what they have been doing, what they have been doing for the last three years. >> assuming democrats have the votes in the house. it would then be on not senate for what we are hearing, john, a trial that is expected to be two weeks or so, early next year, john? >> john: mike emanuel in the halls of capitol hill this afternoon. let's bring in fox news sunday anchor chris wallace. chris, do you expect from what you are hearing there in washington that this will, in fact, end up with hearings in the house judiciary committee? >> well, i'm not sure whether there are going to be hearings or not. it is certain

then congressman debbie dingell who said, "absolute, this was not impeachment."as emphatic the other day on "outnumbered." "this is only an investigation." how many democrats would you say are in that camp? are those people you have to win over if you are adam schiff or jerry nadler? >> marie: all but two democrats voted for this in the house, so i would say they are pretty united. it's bigger than just the call. it's not a transcript. colonel vindman testified there were things removed from it, which i think we should see. next week i think we will start getting to public hearings. the american people -- >> harris: there's pressure on democrats to do that. >> marie: they have said the whole time they are going to. my point is it's not just about the call. it's about a pattern of the relationship with ukraine in the military aid that was held over months. the call is but one part of it. >> andy: i was only interested in the call because that's what he was talking about. let me make this one point -- the president is freezing his defense in place by saying again a

. >>> i want to bring in now democratic congresswoman debbie dingell. you very much for being with us this morning. >> good to be with you. >> i know you were just getting plugged in in the studio, but president trump spoke for about 25 minutes. we're about to play the tape. he made several comments that i would love to get your reaction to related to what's been happening on your end of pennsylvania avenue on capitol hill. specifically that he believes there should not be public hearings because he says this is all simply a hoax. what do you make of that? >> i actually find it very interesting. i'm someone that thinks that we've got to be very careful and very methodical. i was someone that understood the importance of closed hearings because of national security issues, republicans were pressing for these hearings to become more public. i do believe we need to be transparent, release as much information as possible, include the american people as much as possible. so now that things are becoming public, this all began because a republican president tr

congresswoman debbie dingell is co-chair of the policy and communications committee.ast time we spoke it was three weeks ago after the vote took place on the rules and regulations and how the process would move forward. you assured the american people then that you would work hard and endlessly to make sure the president saw a fair process. what did you see play out this week and your decision whether or not the president committed an impeachable offense? >> we're still in the process. we had two weeks of very open and transparent hearings of which there were a number of things that i found deeply disturbing. but here are the next steps. we'll have to decide -- not me but the leadership of these committees if there is anybody else that will testify that's been asked to testify. the intelligence committee is drafting up its recommendations. it will then go to the judiciary committee. i'm waiting to read all of those recommendations and what goes to judiciary. i go home at night and try to see what's happened at those hearings like the american people have but quite fra

charles: doug, thank you so much, what does that mean as we move forward, michigan congresswoman debbie dingell joining us. >> charles to be with you, and i love the red suit charles: thank you very much, i'm getting mixed reactions on twitter but most people like it. >> i love it. [laughter] charles: speaking of reactions, what do you make of the american public which, you know, they've had a couple of weeks and people are becoming disinterested or not really a lot of folks saying, okay, let's go ahead and remove the president from office? >> so, you know, when i'm home i hear from everybody and i don't hear from a lot of con people, i hear from both sides of my district, people thinking he should be impeached an not doing enough, from those that think, wait until the election next year, and i think those numbers reflect probably what i hear as i'm out and about. for me i got targeted last summer, tom steyer put ads for not moving on for impeachment, i was worried then and i'm worried now how russia is trying to divide us as a country and how divided we are as a country and how russia is tryin

leland: debbie dingell of michigan up next, the democrat will be here in the next hour. >>> gillian:an army officer has been released from prison, reunited with his family. he's one of two service members president trump pardoned this week. he also restored the rank of a convicted navy seal. lucas tomlinson has all the details. >> reporter: gillian, president trump personally called all three men to share the news. this morning on "fox & friends," one of those pardon -- former green beret major matt goldstein -- thanked the commander in chief. >> to be able, you know, discipline in very austere circumstances. back here it's become synonymous with suspension of your constitutional rights. i think it sends a clear signal that the president of the united states is paying attention, that he's not going to be backed off by, or you know, institutional elements of dod that are going to try to, you know, retain their ability to do certain things and forced outcomes. >> reporter: goldstein had been charged with murdering a suspected taliban bomb maker in 2010. in a fox news interview in 2016,

i am sorry, but i am right here in debbie dingell's district tlaib is above me, she looks stupid whenhe says nobody came to washington to do that. not y's above the law, even the president. you don't have to look any further than talib. she multiple times, everybody knows, her whole problem with president trump is i.c.e. and getting the people -- these different relatives and whoever up there, she's been on tv saying her community's been terrorized by i.c.e. and everything. terrorized by enforcing the law? she's saying she wants all her constituents. she took an oath of office as well to protect and defend the constitution and the laws of the land, and she is actively harboring fugitives from the law . that is the law. host: i'll leave it there. thank you for your calls, text messages, and tweets, as well as your comments on facebook page. just past 8:00 here in washington, d.c. we are going to continue in just a moment. the book is titled "how to read the constitution and why", joining us here at the table is kimberly wehle to talk about the impeachment process. she teaches at the un

and they will not compete with any level that mexico pays their workers, which debbie dingell said wass confident this deal would pass. watch this. >> i think there's no question that if she puts it on the floor it will be overwhelmingly voted. so the real question is when or if she is willing to put it on the floor. for the good of the country, that would be the singular accomplishment of this congress. maria: one of the issues is going to be the single biggest accomplishment of president trump. when you put the tax cuts and the deregulation aside, usmca is apparently going to create 100,000 plus jobs. >> great for canada, great for mexico too. keeps a lot of cap ex in north america. i can't see any downside on this deal. maria: don't you think voters are going to get upset if this doesn't go through and will they hold nancy pelosi accountable. >> what they'll get upset about is that nothing is going getti. a lot of people are starting to tune out of all the details. the fact that nothing can get done outsite of impeachment, i think it's frustrating people. there's a lot that needs to
