the house of representatives which has a democratic majority, he mentioned democrats, passed a version this bill in july of this year which with support from dozens of republican members.a bipartisan effort in the house of representatives. at the end of the day it doesn't take undermining tps dramatically changing tps in order to get venezuelans temporary protective status. that is something the president could do without the house of representatives or the senate acting, he has chosen not to. there are those who want to try to create an excuse for the president but he has chosen not to do it, number one, number two is, the reality is, if we wanted to create tps for venezuelans, we could immediately do that right now. by having accepted my unanimous consent request because the house of representatives passed with broad obipartisan support we could do it right now would be on its way to the president and then of course he would have to decide whether to sign the legislation even though he could do it on his own right ou now. i hope we can work toward the goal that actually getting the v

house of representatives when they come to trial it is the u.s. senate that trying to the president on the impeachment charges and as you say you need 2 thirds vote of the senate of the republican controlled senate to vote for articles of impeachment it's unlikely so how do we explain the palosi the leading democrat taking this decision if if she doesn't think that she can get a conviction in the u.s. senate then why is she taking this. well that's been the big question here for 4 months basically and let's not forget we're also talking about the mother investigation not only about the phone call with the new or with the new ukrainian president so basically the democratic party feels trapped they believe that it's their democratic duty to hold the president accountable for all the accusations made in the mala report for obstruction of justice for instance and right now of course the important accusation against him is that he has been abusing power by trying to damage the most important 3 presidential candidate of the democratic party who very like

election they've already had 3 impeachment votes on the floor of the house of representatives in fact not only has kevin mccarthy the republican leader here in the house said that this is politically motivated but that is underscored by a representative by the name of mr kingston take a listen to what he had to say. this is politics everybody knows that the democrats have been trying to get some sort of traction because the economy's going we're at peace americans are feeling optimistic wages are unemployment is at historic low and the democrats are trying to get traction they've been trying this all year long if they really felt that they could have an impact they should have kept their mouths shut they should have not been talking about russia russia russia they should not have been talking about stormy daniels and michael levy on me but here we are just one more ploy on their book and by the way we all know this isn't going to go anywhere in the senate if nancy pelosi was really worried she would say before we move let's look at the evidence let's try to get some republicans on boa

house of representatives. goes ahead and begins impeachment proceedings against him it could actually help him in the upcoming election this is donald trump reacting to the move. was or whatever and if you take a look at the democrats they went down to see the president of ukraine and they asked him for all sorts of things it's the single greatest witchhunt in american history probably in history but in american history there was no pressure the way you had that built up that call it was going to be the call from hell that turned out to be a nothing cool. now at this point we've got a very strong number of reactions coming in from democrats hillary clinton elizabeth warren adam schiff and others are basically accusing donald trump of committing you know treason and betraying the country with the contents of this phone call however we have heard from tulsa gabardine other democratic figure in congress in the house of representatives she doesn't support the move to impeach trump says it would divide the country

in the house of representatives, in the senate and in the trump administration with the acting director of national intelligence joseph mcguire fighting for his life legally tonight. the speaker of the house today repeatedly accused joseph mcguire of committing a crime without mentioning him by name. she twice said this is a violation of law. those were her words. she was referring to joseph mcguire's refusal to deliver the whistleblower's complaint directly to congress as the law requires him to do. >> the law is unequivocal. the dni's staff -- it says the dni, director of national intelligence, shall provide congress the full whistleblower complaint. this thursday the acting dni will appear before the house intelligence committee. at that time, he must turn over the whistleblower's full complaint to the committee. he will have to choose whether to break the law or honor his responsibility to the constitution. >> and tonight in response, the acting director of national intelligence joseph mcguire released a written statement saying, in light of recent reporting on the whistleblower com

of washington where democratic house speaker nancy pelosi has announced a formal impeachment inquiry against president our u.s. correspondent. and simple o.c. the speaker of the u.s. house of representatives has come forward to announce the formation of a formal impeachment inquiry into donald trump nancy pelosi argues that donald trump has seriously violated the u.s. constitution this relates to a phone call and which donald trump was speaking to the ukrainian president and in the conversation he threatened to withhold over $400000000.00 of military aid from ukraine and he urged the ukrainian leader to launch an investigation into joe biden and his son hunter biden in their business dealings in the country this is nancy pelosi announcing the launching of a formal inquiry of impeachment into donald trump this week the president has admitted to asking the president to crane to take actions which would benefit him politically the action of the trial the actions of the trump presidency revealing dishonorable fact of the president's betrayal of his oath of office betrayal of our national security and betrayal of the integrity of our elections therefore today i'm announcing the house of repres

and the speaker of the house is not going to invite an impeached president to deliver a state of the union address in the house of representatives in the middle of his impeachment trial in the senate. donald trump is going to be impeached by the house of representatives on at least one article of impeachment because, as of tonight, everything in the whistle-blower's report has so far proved to be true and more is proving to be true each day, including the most damning aspects of that whistle-blower's report. but the smoking gun evidence that will force the impeachment of donald trump are the words that donald trump spoke in the white house record of his conversation with the president of ukraine and nothing is going to change those words, nothing is going to make those words any better. and so for the majority of the members of the house of representatives who have said those words are worthy of an impeachment investigation, nothing is going to happen to make those words sound any better to them. there will not come a moment when any of them say, oh, i thought those words looked suspicious when i first saw them, but now two mont

we will never find the truth unless we use the power given to the house of representatives and the house alone to begin an official investigation. >> pelosi is telling colleagues the investigation will be done expeditiously. democrats hope to have it done by the end of the year. this is the last week in session for the house before a two-week recess. >>> obsession with impeachment. that's how president trump is trying to state it. they released this dramatic video less than 30 minutes after nancy pelosi's official announcement. cnn learns it was prepared week ago. quote, we were ready in case the democrats were that dumb, and they were. >> on monday he said it was all about corruption. on tuesday he blamed europe. >> my complaint has always been and i withhold again and i'll continue to withhold until such time as europe and other nations tribute to ukraine, because they're not doing it. just the united states. we're putting up the bulk of the money, and i'm asking why is that. >> the president claims there was never any, quote, quid pro quo" withholding of release of money. >> joe biden

members of the house of representatives are scheduled to go on a two—week...ion but a district court period when they would go home to their home districts that the house intelligence committee, the one that nancy pelosi spoke of, in that interview we've just heard, are going to stay here in town and begin their impeachment enquiry with focus on this ukraine story and there's word that even by the end of next week they could start issuing subpoenas and calling witnesses. while nancy pelosi was reluctant to give a timeline for this enquiry, it seems like they want to move reasonably quickly to start gathering information. this will be the first part of the process to try to remove donald trump. a vote in the house of representatives on impeachment will prompt a trial in the senate. anthony, over the past years we have heard a lot about impeachment, especially around those links to russian interference and the probe that went on there, the mueller enquiry. does this have a different feel? a different urgency from what we heard in the past when actually there was

security and betrayal of the integrity of our elections therefore today i'm announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry and directing our 6 committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella of impeachment inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is above the law. or president trump is already taken to twitter to slam the inquiry saying such an important day at the united nations so much work and some much success and the democrats purposely have to ruin and demean it with more breaking news what chant garbage so bad for our country. our times he joins us live now from washington so reaction there from president trump has there been any other 'd reaction coming in. funny you mention it actually we're imminently expecting reaction from nancy pelosi as opposite number in the house of representatives we have a 2 minute warning about 2 minutes ago that the that the house minority speaker will be speaking very shortly in congress to give their reaction but as you can see from donald trump's tweet defiance and in fact the one f

house of representatives has announced her congressional committees will form an umbrella inquiry it's goal gather evidence necessary to impeach trump that is the 1st of a long and uncertain path to removing him from office pelosi grounded her decision in the us constitution the actions taken to date by the president have seriously violated the constitution especially when the president says article 2 says i can do whatever i want the actions of the trump presidency revealed dishonorable fact of the president's betrayal of his oath of office betrayal of our national security and betrayal of the integrity of our elections therefore today i'm announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry and directing our 6 committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella pietschmann inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is above the law . the announcement marks a sharp reversal for pelosi who for months had resisted calls from within her own party to impeach a whistleblower complaint changed her tune however as it says susp

introduce, really, the person who made sure we got this done in terms of regular order in the house of representatives and that's the chair of the house administration committee where all of this was pulled together and we were able to get it over the finish line in the house of representatives. >> thank you, john. you know, i, in addition to the elements outline is he well by mr. sarbanes, there was a provision in hr-1 to secure our voting systems. all 50 states were targeted in the attacks, the cyber attacks in 2016 and we know that the attackers will be back. just yesterday the acting director of national intel against said this, quote, i think the greatest challenge we have is to major sure we maintain the integrity of our election system. we know right now there are foreign powers that are trying to get us to question the validity of whether or not our elections are valid. he went on to say, protecting the sanctity of our elections within the united states, whether it be national, state, local, is perhaps the most important job we have with the intelligence community. so for the past 200 days we

thank you. >> short statement from kevin mccarthy, the minority leader in the house of representatives blasting the speaker of the house, nancy pelosi, for formally announcing opening of an impeachment inquiry into the president of the united states. i want to go to the president's reaction now. he is right now on the attack as the threat of impeachment becomes more real. chief white house correspondent jim acosta is covering the president, up at the united nations where the president has been meeting with world leaders. the speech was vastly overshadowed, his speech at the u.n., jim, by what's going on in here in washington. >> reporter: that's right, wolf. the president lashed out at the house speaker awhile ago in her announcement of impeachment inquiry saying that this call for impeachment inquiry is what he described as breaking news, total witch hunt garbage. earlier he said he would release the transcript of the phone call with the ukrainian president to try to put this to rest. mr. trump has been trying to argue throughout the day he has done nothing wrong, he says there was no

committee of the house which will consider them, vote on them, and eventually, sometime between now and christmas it is hoped, there will be some sort of bow before the house of representativesic of course, making donald trump only the third us president to be impeached while being the subject of impeachment votes. but i have to say will be very unlikely he will be removed from office. that would require a two—thirds vote of the senate which of course is republican—controlled at the moment. what is the political calculation here? there is a chance, isn't there, that a president being cleared by the senate before going into an election will be strengthened? that is the problem as far as the democrats are concerned. and quite frankly why they have been cautious, at least the leadership has, about going into impeachment proceedings up until now for that very reason. the prospect it could backfire against them. bill clinton of course was one of only two previous presidents who had been impedes, and after that failed —— impeached, his popularity soared was not so they are aware this could backfire into the run up to next yea r‘s backfire into the run up to next year's elections.

democrats in the us house of representatives are launching a formal impeachment inquiry against donaldat he pressured the president of ukraine to investigate his political rival, joe biden. the british prime minister, borisjohnson, has defended his decision to suspend parliament but said he would respect a ruling from the uk supreme court that he had broken the law in doing so. let's take a look at some front pages from around the world. let's begin with the japan times and it's focusing on its environmental policy, whether it's falling behind the rest of the world. the paper asks why the country continues to push for what it calls clean coal energy. it also reports on criticism the country's new environment minister has faced for his comments at the un climate summit. meanwhile, the south china morning post reports on the cheapest sg phone to hit the market. someone at phone maker xiaomi was certainly listening, it says, when consumers called for cheaper phones. you can snap up the latest for around $500. and it was all smiles between the us and singapore, according to the straits tim

the democrats in the house of representatives now support impeachment but itld be seven, including a gang of five among them who are freshmen in the house. in the districts that trump one or the districts that hillary clinton one by not very much, they were what they call the majority makers. throughout this process speaker pelosi has been protecting those new democrats by holding on the left flank of her party that is demanding impeachment proceedings. now all of that with her movement toward impeachment or at least impeachment action has changed. house speaker nancy pelosi has registered calls for impeachment proceedings for months now and she has resisted those calls. i noted earlier that the source tells "wall street journal" that the speaker plans to announce a formal impeachment hearings in about an hour and a half. mike emanuel is on capitol hill. >> a number of our sources have been telling us similar things, as heading in the direction of a formal impeachment inquiry but they did not want to get out ahead of nancy pelosi's announcement at 5:00 p.m. ea

the ideas passed in the house of representatives. not all the ideas that i would like put into law, but some really good things got passed that would prevent a lot of violence, including the background checks, including closing the charleston loophole when that white nationalist went into that church and gunned down those parishioners only because a background check hadn't been completed. just giving a few more days, that's what that bill does, so the police officers can do their jobs or complete the background checks. how about my bill? that's a bill that's sitting on leader mcconnell's death, that's the boyfriend loophole. and what's the status? if you get convicted a serious offense of domestic violence against a husband or wife, most the time it's wives or someone in your house. you can't go out and get an ak-47, you can't go out and get a gun. that's the law right now, but if you get convicted of the same crime against a boyfriend or a girlfriend, usually girlfriend, you can go out and get that gun. we have had hearing after hear
