jim? john and carrie. one of the top 100 investment advise advisers congrats >> thank you >> number 25 >> top 100 >> top quarter according to my math >> thank you >> the overall markets, the nasdaq is trying for its 10 th straight day of gains. if that happens it would be the first time that's happened in a decade so it's great. people are buying stocks feels like almost like they're worried about just gooing it up, santa clo santa claus rally, whatever you want to call it, but i'm worried about next week. >> that's legitimate to be worried about it, but let's not worry too much let's be joyous and expect to ring in the new year with sp enthusiasm >> your caution is warranted we probably will give some of this back in the new year. that doesn't mean we have to have some sort of correction i'm not calling for that all the forces are aligned for the market to be stable, if not go higher. feds on the said line. trade tensions with china have eased for the moment profits should be growing. i don't see any reas

john kelly was the deputy to jim mattis when they led the marines into baghdad in 2003. that is a very, very tight relationship. with jim mattis gone, john kelly left, as well. host: fall river, massachusetts, andrew. good morning. peter bergen and his new book, "trump and his generals: the cost of chaos." good morning, andrew. caller: trump and his generals is just like the way he runs his business. like playing a guitar. he uses the string and then when it goes sour, he throws it away. in his business, he owes tons of money to people, files bankruptcy, and blames it on one of the strings, tosses it out, and puts a new one in. and the company has been in business for four or five generations in the family, and trump sits there -- oh, i filed bankruptcy and i am ok. and this guy insults a war hero like john mccain, and the republicans sit on their butts and don't jump all over this clown. host: thanks for the call. let me take his point, the sentiment he has and those who do not support trump, and ask you this question, how did we get here? guest: the election of trump?

jim jordan, john ratcliffe, mike johnson and mark meadows. everyone except meadows met with the white house counsel this week. what do you make of those picks? >> standards. as you would expect. these were people that were sort of stars or performed or good at making the case for the president when it was this the house. one interesting thing plessy did is she drew a line in the sand. she said i am not sending this over until i believe it is fair. so by definition, whenever she sends it over, she is saying it is fair. if she sent it over tomorrow, apparently she undercut chuck schumer's whole case because she is saying it is fair that it went there. she has to extract something from mitch in order for it to be fair in her opinion. i don't think mcconnell is perfectly fine to approve judges in the meantime. >> like, this isn't -- the things he has done are unethical. like what he did with merrick garland. and the idea he would refuse to even try to have a fair process and that's something we shaw laud, i disagree with that. i think in the end

you've heard a number of republicans whether it's congressman john ratcliff, doug collins or jim jordanree have been probably the president's most vocal defenders in the house proceedings and you're seeing them trying to really try to defend president trump ahead of the senate trial. you're also seeing president trump really much put all of his eggs in one basket ahead this have senate trial, very much, you know -- there is this feeling among republicans and administration officials that this is going to go smoothly for the president and that the president will easily be acquitted in that trial and that this will politically work well for the president. president trump even said last week that, you know, he hopes this is dragged out and that more witnesses will be called. so we'll really have to wait and see, but republicans very much gearing up for this in the hopes that it's politically feasible for them. >> julia, give us more on the candidates likely to represent each side. let's start with the president. who does he want to defend him? >> i think the president obviously wants a num

jim jordan, john radcliffe, withe blew holes in it because it's so easy. we have the facts on our side. all they have is hatred of president trump. all they had is not liking a man who came to office to do what he said he was going to do and he's doing. if you have facts and truth on your side, it will win every time. >> sean: you're probably glad that congressman collins didn't get the promotion to the upper chamber. >> i'm glad he's where he's at as well. >> four facts never change, jim jordan. not only that, five meetings after the four facts. i don't think anybody could do it as well as you do it. explain? >> you're kind. but i loved your monologue because the disdain that these people that they brought in today -- these professors have for us regular americans who voted for president trump, never forget, sean, 17 days ago, the speaker of the house on a sunday show called the president of the united states an imposter. the guy who had 63 million people vote for him, the guy who won by landslide, the speaker of the house calling the president of the uni

mcmaster, jim mattis, john kelly.tent people like mark esper the defense secretary, but they're not really going to stand up to trump and he's sort of unplugged and we've seen the results. >> what did these generals think of the president overall? because you write about moments that seem like out of body experiences. one has to do with south korea and its capital seoul and meetings the president had repeatedly about the north korea, south korea conflict. trump remarked why is seoul so close to the north korean border. trump was regularly briefed that north korea possessed -- trump saud they have to move, the officials in the oval office weren't sure if trump was joking. trump repeated they have to move. >> i think they just tuned this stuff out. trump makes a lot of these kinds of comments. is he joking? is he serious? it's hard to tell. but over time i think these things began to accumulate, and also, it wasn't just a matter of trump's kind of way of approaching things that the military wasn't happy about, they disa

and we know that a number of republicans, whether it is doug collins, jim jordan, john radcliff, theyave been very voke until defending the president and trying to curry favor towards the president and defending him publicly. so i believe you will see doug collins do that today. tomorrow, you're going to see this potentially taken to the house floor for a vote. and then that could potentially go into thursday. if speakers take a while on the floor and we're expecting republicans to once again defend the president. so this process, even though it is moving very quickly, is slated to get messy. >> we have heard a lot from freshmen democrats amidst this entire process, those that are supportive of im peaching a president, also those that are not necessarily supportive of impeaching a president, especially those in swing districts, you can't help but think about congressman jeff van drew who has decided to become a republican amidst all of this. what kind, if we're talking about those supportive of impeaching a president, what kind of political response are we expecting from some of those

that is why you see john durham looking back at the efforts and the efforts of people like jim comey d john brennan to look and see if this started before the official's cross fire hurricane date of july 31st. i have seen classified documents that show that it did. >> jason: your service on and off the judiciary committee and intel committee is really insightful. i appreciate it. congressman mcclintock come i wish i could go back to you as well but i have to wish you both a merry christmas. thank you again for joining us tonight. again, thanks to both of you. tonight, even democrats are starting to realize impeachment is not only bad for the country, but also a political nightmare. the infighting has officially begun. and in the last nights debate, andrew yang called out his own party. watch this. >> the media did not do his favorite by the recent donald trump became the president and the first place. if you turn on cable networks, news today, you would think he is the president because of some combination of russia, racism, facebook, hillary clinton and emails all mixed together. abo

eric swalwell, val demings, jim ratcliffe. johnhere are 12 freshman members on the judiciary committee, 8 of republicans.s, 4 the oldest member, jim sensenbrenner. the oldest member, jonah goose -- committee counsel will once again take center stage at today's impeachment hearings. republican steve castor will anve double duty, providing opening argument and presenting the case against impeachment. steve castor also working with the judiciary committee serves the minority counsel and is the former chief investigative counsel for house oversight, so he made the rounds in several committees for republicans on the house side. he practiced commercial litigation in philadelphia and washington, d.c., degrees from george washington university law school. daniel goldman will present the case for impeachment, viewers will remember him from the intelligence committee hearings where he served as majority counsel, he is the former deputy chief of the organized crimes unit in the office of the u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york

i would like to turn to the panelists to appeal to any , startinguestions with sophie and then john and jim. >> all right. i do not think i was clear when i read out that statement from the hanoi theoretical journal about why the revolution must and whyolent victory peace talks and negotiations with the imperialists are not worth the time. le ywas not a statement by un. that was an anonymous author writing in the journal in 1964, which expressed one point of view coming from hanoi. we have records of statements by le yuen that say seven quite different. he was -- that say something quite different. he was known as an advocate of the southern evolution but was also consistent in lobbying for , and may governments at one time have been fairly hard line on his feelings about the saigon government which he felt was a puppet government that should be destroyed but the same time he also spoke about the need for peace governance in the south. he was some but he said even in his 1968 statement before the hanoi central committee, before the tet offensive, that his goal, or he saw the goal of the tet

. >> and i would like to combine something john said earlier and something jim said about where the pocket's going so john was talking about those companies that get a lot of revenue overseas i would take that one step further saying we're seeing opportunity outside of the u.s. in international equities, so anytime you get signs of a bottoming of growth which i would say we're getting some mixed data, but i think bottoming is a process so that's okay we expect a recovery in 2020 and so the higher cyclicality of international equities, the more export dependent, points to better opportunities, specifically in internationals >> we're seaing that value is going to outperform or is going to at least -- >> i didn't say that i thought it was clear if you get phase one, if you don't r, we're dead in the water. >> no. we're not dead in the water. a lot of companies doing great >> talking about value >> ooip talking about everything >> you just made the case for energy >> i did, but the whole time and for months, i've predicated this on phase one getting done. there's nothing new in what i'm saying c

. >> thanks, jim. >> looking at that "new york times" reporting there, you have mark esper, the defense secretary, secretary of state mike pompeo, and the then national security adviser johnolton going to the president and saying, release this aid, it's in america's interests. should they testify, bolton, mulvaney, esper, pompeo, before the senate? >> jim, as you know, chuck schumer, the democratic leader in the senate, has called for the testimony of at least two of those individuals, mr. bolton and mr. mulvaney. i think that is essential because they have relevant information about the key circumstances i think a lot of americans want to know more about. one is the national security implications here and obviously the question of aid. but what the reporting today or yesterday i should say in the reporting this week about what transpired there, is indicative of the concern that was raised within the administration long before it got up to the level of pompeo and others and esper by folks who were in the national security apparatus of our government worrying about this way back in july, even before july in some circumstances, and i would urge people to read the house inte

we heard mccarthy say jim jordan and john ratcliffe and doug collins. >> that would be very good for us. you look at the party. 200 republican senator members of the house right now, only 13 women. that's about to drop to less than 10. on the other hand, our party is incredibly diverse. it does give us a chance to show off some of the spectacular freshmen we just elected last year. >> you want to see one of them on there? >> at least one. >> really? >> absolutely. >> that's a lot of fresh blood. >> a lot of them come from very deep backgrounds, been prosecutors and cia agents and constitutional scholars. we have a good team. >> so how long can the speaker hold onto these articles of impeachment. >> i don't begin to second-guess her. i suspect it won't be that long. she wants to be enough pressure to have the right kind of fair trial, for example, witnesses and documents. on the other hand, we didn't go through all this national pain to get to the impeachment without wanting there to be a trial. i don't see us holding them indefinitely. >> so, senator blumenthal said he hoped early ja

you can make matters worse for yourself if you try to push this too far, john. >> jim acosta at the white house, thanks so much for being with us. more now on the maneuvering between the house and senate, pelosi and mcconnell, and of course the president. joining us, a juror when and if it comes to that. senator richard blumenthal, member of the judiciary committee and a democrat from connecticut. thank you so much for being with us. will there be a senate trial? >> there will be a senate trial. it is required by the constitution. the issue of when the articles of impeachment will be sent to the senate is a decision for nancy pelosi to make and very understandably she wants some assurance that it will be full and fair, not the sham and charade that mitch mcconnell is apparently going to give the president. and what's striking about the report that you've just heard, excellent reporting by jim acosta, is the assumption by the president that he can set the terms of his own trial. and that assumption is well warranted by mitch mcconnell saying he's going to take his cue from the white house.

john is off. jime with you as always. >> we begin with a nasty winter storm causing havoc across the u.s. bringing heavy snow, freezing rain, and destructive winds. there are thousands of flight delays and driving conditions are dangerous. the west coast is also coping with snow, flooding, and power out annals. 50 million americans are under winter storm alerts this morning. >> this week the first public impeachment hearing in the house judiciary committee will proceed on wednesday without president trump's lawyers. they have decided not to participate. according to "the washington post," four constitutional scholars, three chosen by democrats, one by republicans, are expected to testify about the standards for impeachment. today members of the house intelligence committee will review their report. all of this happening as president trump heads to london this morning to attend the nato summit. we begin with miguel marquez. he's live with our top stories. so we saw you there about an hour ago, looks li

it's our interesting that you met with white house counsel yesterday along with representative jim jordan and john under consideration to be on the president's defense team. is that accurate and would you accept such a role? >> you know, i'm really not at liberty to talk about that. i would be delighted to serve on the defense team. i feel very strongly in the president's case and if he asked me to serve in that capacity, i certainly would. but there's really -- i don't have much more to talk about this morning. >> you heard the senate majority leader make his case to the floor and you know that he is opposing any witnesses being called during a senate trial. i want to play the senate majority leader 20 years ago on cnn when a democratic president faced impeachment, his position on witnesses in the senate trial then and then get your reaction. have a listen. >> every other impeachment has had witnesses. it's not unusual to have witnesses in a trial, and i think we're handling this in exactly the appropriate way under the constitution and it will end soon. >> why were republicans in favor of witnes

could john brennan and jim clapper and others in the obama administration be under the microscope of john durham? >> i would be worried if i was one of the above you just named. durham is tough. he's a career prosecutor. he has gone after fbi agents, cia operatives. that guys not scared of going after the top of the heap here. dave: guy lewis, always a pleasure to see you. do democrats have a border policy, any border policy? a lot of them want to get rid of i.c.e. >> i think it's a call to action on several levels. >> i amee replacing i.c.e. with something that reflects our morality. >> we'll examine i.c.e. and its role. david: new pictures show a violent clash at the border. one suspect ramming his truck into a border patrol vehicle. also tonight, new year, new fad diets. dr. siegel is here to tell us which ones. it may slow your aging. can't wait for that one. remember new york city's missing new york mayor. he increased spending in the big apple more than any previous mayor. but that didn't stop the homeless crisis. and has all his spending stopped anti-i mittic attacks. rather th

republican minority leader kevin mccarthy said his plan for house republican impeachment managers is john radcliffe, jimand doug collins who really led some of the vociferous opposition that came from republicans during the impeachment. >> yes, they did. >> that was the diplomatic way of saying it. the president wanted a circus. they delivered for him on that. do you think as the speaker considers managers that has an impact on who she chooses to represent democrats? >> i think she's going to pick the strongest, the strongest managers that will deliver the message, conduct a trial and i would hope that the whole country does not want to have a circus. the senate can be more sometimes too rigid and whatever but i don't think the senate's going to want a circus and i think senator mcconnell and what i do know of him is that he is not going to want a circus in the united states senate. i think that the managers that i have a great deal of respect for the minority leader and try to cause chaos but we have to stop causing chaos in everything that we do. our democracy is threatened by this daily confrontation

. >> the only way to be convicted, 67 votes, two-thirds of the majority in the senate, jim baker, only if john bolton comes up and says something so damaging to this president or new audiotape, probably unlikely. >> low probablity. and if he's wise he will listen tohy advisors telling him, let's keep this short and tight and we know where this is going to go, let's keep it as short as possible. >> that's what he should want but not sure if he does. his advisors in the senate would like it to be as quick as possible even though the president wants others like hunter biden to testify. you used to work in the obama administration, the white house is further restricting who can listen in and have access with the president's phone conversations with foreign leaders because they're so upset about the leaks that emerged from his phone conversation with president zelensky of ukraine. >> right. we don't know if the president is repeating some of the investigation by the house right now. i used to work on the lists and calls. there are two separate lists. call participants and call read-outs. there are

the next couple of months is being early awaited to the people like mark meadows and jim jordan who believe this man johnurham of concticut is the person who isoing to finally put people in handcuffs. that's what a lot of trump aligned republicans say that this is the person who is going to charge people. robe: so that's what some republicans want. but the bigger picture is where stees truth? there's the durham report, the i.g. report? where is the truth? >> there is no single truth i mean, there is. karoun said as jake said. n and there are different ways of looking that report. and everybody's going to pull it out if you listen to fox or msnbc. even this week, you heard very starkly different versions of reality. listen to the president talk. what he says at times has very little bearing on, you know, the facts set f that you wouldre the democrats. and getting them on the same spage really, really -- the probably imnoble this day and age. we're so atomized, we're so polarized. not just in our politics but our social interactions that we live in these separate universes and they don't meet. >> president

john ratcliffe, former u.s. attorney that did an amazing job. i go to jim jordan, doug collins, these are individuals i would pull in at the white house. we've been at this. remember democrats have been trying to impeach the president for 2 1/2 years, changing whatever they could find every step of the way from the mueller report to quid pro quo, extortion, bribery, what they came up today with articles that meet nowhere, no facts but through all the battles you have to want people who have been through it, understand it, been in the hearings even when they were in the i ba. that testimony, who has been in the rooms, those three individuals are ones that i would actually recommend to the president. maria: of course congressman radcliffe has been a friend to this program. been on many times. he knows cold what took place. he saw all the redacted documents. he knows what took place in terms of 2016 as so-called coup as you put it. stay with us. i want to hear about victories you have had going into 2020, your priorities. back in a minute with the minority lea
