i am stunned one of the three would be matt gaetz. here is pelosi thinking she is going to do something bipartisan. when we deal with situations like this. how did republicans act when we killed bin laden? we came together as americans. general petraeus said this is bigger than killing bin laden. why can't the democrats in congress understand that and give this president the respect and support he need. lou: certainly supporting this president, every republican in my judgment. every democrat should be supporting this president who is acting as an exemplar of any president we would have lead the free world. and he's doing so in ways that's of his detract tores thought never possible, achieving more than most of his supporters thought possible. it's been an extraordinary three years and promises to be an extraordinary another five. >> if this president gets another five years the next century will be the american century. if the democrats were able to win the white house and keep the majority of the house it would just be investigations

do they want matt gaetz or leader mcconnell? >> let's start more broadly and what the president wants and what the president wants is what he always wants, which he wants fighters who quote/unquote look the part o there on tv or out there in the halls of congress on the floor of the senate defending him in sort of the most fiery feisty way possible. yes, does p wsident trumpt even rdan or a matt gaetz though he's frustrated with him now for his juarez lution bil making the case in the court of public opinion? absolutely if you go back to the mueller probe, he wasn't looking for the best legal expertise and flip through the documents and look for the best strategy. he wanted for someone to make their case on tv. that's one of the reasons why he ended up with ry giuliani. that's what the president wants. it's not what leader mcconnell was. it's unclear where that will e up robert: when you're at the pentagon and they see a president aboute to f an impeachment trial, does north korea, iran do they see a weakened president trump or

i applaud matt gaetz. i worked with him on this issue. we had an amendment just like this in the national defense authorizing act. that's one thing i was fighting for that we didn't get to try to reassert congressional authority. >> yes, and gaetz one of the three republicans i believe who did vote. he said he did so despite the president's opposition to it. before i let you go, iraq, the iraq prime minister has conveyed secretary of state mike pompeo that they want to begin talking about a process for removing u.s. troops from iraq despite the fact that the fight against isis goes on. the president raised the possibility of imposing sanctions on u.s. ally iraq in response to that to force their hand. would you support such a measure if iraq demands the u.s. withdrawal? >> i would not support sanctions. look, this is an underreported part of this story. the consequences of the decision to kill soleimani. we have handed along a sort of back door victory here. number one, there were protesters in the streets of iran, protesting their govern

gaetz from florida had to say. in representative khanna's amendment, there were 27 republicans. 14 for ms. lee, 27 for mr. khanna. mr. khanna's resolution, directly related to the constitution and ms. lee's is directly related to what mr. gaetz said. whether you agree or not with what was happening in iraq, it's over. the bipartisan votes are a testament to the very strong public sentiment that sending america's young men and women to war must not be the decision of the command for the chief and from my perspective frankly certainly not this commander in chief who is so impulsive and so inclined to avoid and deny the advice of his secretary of defense and other intelligence related personnel. that is why as i said earlier, our founders enshrined in the constitution that only congress can declare war. that's why we have the war powers act that we adopted in 1973. it is why we are having this debate on the floor today. i strongly support both the lee amendment and the khanna amendment. the former would repeal the 200

congressman gaetz go agree with that assessment? do i think jay was particularly persuasive when he set up framework toe evaluate all of the evidence. this wasn't a crime by the president. it was a setup by people who didn't like him and didn't like his policies. and it was a setup that resulted from the failed setup of the cross fire hurricane, and investigation and the mueller report. it is my expectation that in the the coming days the president legal defense team will successful lay out fact that the house never produced a victim you know, basic tendency of a shake down is that you have someone who believes they were shook downs at some point and effective that president team pointed out that there was no victim in this case. >> all right, and what is the white house defense team doing right now? congressman, roger are they out drinking or are they out scribbling notes for monday? >> nobody is drinking. but i hope they get a good rest tomorrow. everyone will. look we've been prepared for this case for some time. everyone is chor

joining me is congressman matt gaetz. congressman, great to have you with us.ant to get your reaction to the president and another record trade deal. another record week of achievements. >> what was so notable to me. as the democrats were signing the sham articles of impeachment our president was signing phase one of the china deal that will totally reset the world economy in favor of the american work. the establishment of both parties have been unwilling to confront the economic threat china poses economically and militarily. and the democrats through this impeachment are trying to make our country weaker. lou: how do you walk around that chamber with these people who are so hateful and willing to live in a cesspool of deceit? trying to bring down a man. they are venal. work at his heels. it's insane that the national left-wing media continues to toll rate it quote comment what they know d continue to tolerate it what they know is pure hate and an effort unending it seems to overthrow this president. >> i tried to be a happy warrior. but i think what proves y

but there were three republicans who voted for it including matt gaetz of florida who has always been one of the president's most staunch supporters in the house. >> representative gaetz said though he does support president trump ask, that he still thinks it's is prudent for congress to be consulted. but this was a pretty symbolic resolution. it doesn't have much power behind it. president trump doesn't have to follow it and there is nothing that says he has to, even though speaker pelosi has tried to maintain that it has real teeth to it. jon: the white house is saying there was about to be an attack on american interests in the middle east. >> we had specific information on an imminent threat. and that includes attacks on u.s. i am bassies, period, full stop. >> you said you didn't know precisely when and where. >> those are inconsistent thoughts. we don't know which minute or date could have been executed. soleimani * was plotting large scale attacks against american interests and those attacks were imminent. jon: they didn't want a benghazi on its watch and therefore they ordered

congressman gaetz, i want you to react to this. specifically, focusing on this guy, watch. >> they withdrew the subpoena, that you created a and they are asking you to become complicit in that evasion of the court. it's ridiculous. obstruction? for going to court? it's an act of patriotism to defend the constitutional right of the president because if they can do to the president, they could do it to any of you and they could do it to any american citizen. >> laura: exerting his right, his right, so they want to punish him. >> last time i checked this is why we have courts, when there is a conflict between branches. that is why we have people who wear black robes around us to solve disputes. but he did a phenomenal job today and i am here for the cipollone dynamic. it is clear those two guys are little competitive of one another and we are getting the best of both of them. they were both phenomenal and i think they got better as the day went on. >> laura: congressman, thank you very much for being here late night. for all of you. w

matt gaetz, i think this is important. the president said something. you are surrounding yourself with some of the same people as your predecessors. i don't think that's a good idea. that was revealing, because it showed the president thinking, wait a minute. i don't know if i can trust you. then, we have the whole issue of all of the corruption. you know, the president does have a sworn duty to faithfully execute the laws of our land. they never once talked about it, matt. >> if anything, it proves that the president was entirely correct to be skeptical about ukraine and whether or not corruption would impact u.s. investment in that country. democrats are really scraping the bottom of the barrel if they think that lev parnas is their star witness. we've all successfully smoked out that the steele dossier was a part of a foreign interference campaign against our democracy. it may very well be with these russian payments to lev parnas as part of a disinformation campaign. as this moves to the senate and we look at witnesses, sean, one witness i want to

congressman matt gaetz is back with me.gressman, it seems like we are hearing a lot about the nsc these days and bolton is connected to all of it. >> the good news is since mr. o'brien is in that role we have seen a lot of turnover at the nsc and we are draining the swamp. and the nsc has not been exclude from that reform effort. does anyone find it suspicious that john bolton has bullet testimony and we didn't mare a people from him. now all of a sudden when we are here on the eve of a motion to dismiss the impeachment, all of a sudden there are bombshell revelations. trish: i finds it suspicious and deliberate. it's about a lot more than money. maybe it publisher wanted to get it out there because it would help sell copies and the timing. but i think it's about something bigger. he holds a grudge. i think this is revenge. >> i don't believe john bolton is particularly thrilled with his tenure at the white house. i view the world like the president does through realistic read on our foreign policy. i asked the president on

during the hearing, congressman matt gaetz on his game also rebuked the democrat star witness right toer face. great moment for him, take a look. >> when you talk about how liberals want to be around each other and conservatives don't want to be around each other so they have to spread out, you may not see this from the ivory towers of your law school, but it makes actual people in this country -- you'll get to interrupt me. now let me also suggest that when you invoke the president's son's name here, when you try to make a little joke out of referencing barron trump, that does not lend credibility to your argument. it makes you look mean, makes you look like you are attacking a family. the minor child of the president of the united states. >> keyword minor child, and the professor issued a half-hearted, phony apology but make no mistake that it was a mitigated disaster for the democrats. this was worse than the schiff show, how stupid do they think we are? they are bringing three liberal, trump hating professors who live and work in their ivory towers all trying to convince us that th

matt gaetz of course, probably one of the president's most intense defenders. he voted with the democrats today on the war powers resolution. joining me now democratic congresswoman of new jersey. she's a u.s. navy veteran who voted for the war powers resolution today. explain to me your vote today, congresswoman. >> as you mentioned, i'm a navy veteran. i was a helicopter pilot and i flew throughout the middle east. and i just feel very strongly that if our soldiers and sailors will be brave enough to go overseas to fight for this country, we in congress have to be brave enough to engage in these debates. i was on active duty when we passed the 2001 and 2002 aums and i don't think anybody at the time would have thought we would still be fighting under the 2001 aumf now in 2020. >> what do you say to those who say this shows division externally to iran or that it was playing politics in the words of your fellow freshman max rose to bring up a war powers resolution? >> you know, a lot of us have fought for this country over the years. i don't think we play polit

with support from three republicans, including -- this may surprise you -- trump ally matt gaetz who says the president might have preferred he voted differently. i'll bet. he's probably right on that one. that as we may be much closer tonight to the next step in impeachment, the senate trial. nancy pelosi says that she'll send the impeachment articles to the senate when she is good and ready. but suggesting that could be soon. sources are telling cnn that she hasn't tipped her hand, but she is telling people privately to stay close. and there is news tonight about one of the president's favorite -- i want you to listen to this. i was just talking to chris about it. okay. this is one of the president and his supporters and the maga and far right conspiracy theorists, this is one of their favorite conspiracy theories. it involves, of course, hillary clinton, his attempt to smear her with false accusations that she did something wrong when the government decided not to block the sale of a company called uranium one. well, now the justice department is saying -- this is the trump justic

so why did gaetz get left off the impeachment fun club?ecause he dared disagree with trump a single time. after trump's drone strike on iranian general qasem soleimani, gaetz pushed back and voted to rein in trump's war powers. big mistake. if your lips leaves trump's ass even for a second to put on some chapstick, you're dead to him.

the constitution to speak to these matters of war and peace. >> trace: you clearly differ from matt gaetzyour thoughts, congresswoman? >> we served together, and i have a lot of respect for him. but i disagree about this particular vote, because of the timing if nothing else. there were no hearings on this resolution. he did not go through regular process. it is a concurrent resolution, which is similar to resolutions that we pass here authorizing the boxcar derby to be held on capitol hill. it has no force of law. it was clearly the democrats trying to send a messaging bill, they don't like the president and want him to be reelected, and want to approve of what he did. and iran needs to see a show of unified strength from america. he needs to see congress coming alongside this president when our troops and embassies are threatened and stand as a unified front against him. so i think it was poor timing. it was the wrong idea. and i could not support this. >> trace: congresswoman, a little bit more breaking news coming in, laura ingraham finished up her interview with the president, she as

i think matt gaetz would be one of them. >> ed: what do you think about some of those players being added to the president's team if there is a senate trial and how do you reach your own decision to say, look, i'm going to stay being an advisor on the inside, not the outside. >> ed: the president has a really good lawyer in pat cipollone. there is a political component to this and i am a huge john ratcliffe fan. in addition to being an incredible lawyer, he was the attorney in texas, understands the politics, just harry and house intel, he has conducted the depositions, he's defended the positions. if there needs to be as someone with a political background to understand the chronology of the process, radcliffe would be fantastic. the president would win of the vote was today. i don't like surprises. i do not like when this is, i do not know what they are going to say. if the vote were today, the president would win. my advice to him, go with the defense team you've got now. radcliffe, jay sekulow, and get to the vote as quickly as possible. it's just not good for there to be a lot of sur
