what do you look at when you see those roads that nancy pelosi was talking about?igence community's assessment on russian interference in our election that was done in january of 2017, there's a reference in there to a russian who was saying that the champagne corks were going to be popping in moscow because russia would be able to have its way in ukraine and syria with donald trump's election. unfortunately, that was a very prescient comment. but it's clear that trump's ignorance of u.s. national security interests as well as global affairs is just handing over to vladimir putin the opportunity to increase russia's influence and ability to shape our world events as the u.s. recedes from its traditional responsibilities and obligations, particularly to our allies. and the removal of u.s. troops from that syrian area with the kurds is just the latest example of donald trump continuing to ignore what our responsibilities have been. it's quite interesting that trump continues to tout what he has done for the u.s. military, but i think he wants a parade ground military

nancy pelosi has the right to do this.f you look at the constitution there is wide latitude for them to decide how they want to do this. the question is why would she do this? if you look at prior impeachment proceedings they all happen the same way where you've done in public, given the white house the ability to call their own witnesses, cross-examine witnesses. the goal of this was to show that things were done transparently and to convince the public of your cause because this is a political exercise. nancy pelosi's risk is that paul is mostly what you are seeing in those numbers, democrats tightening their stance on impeachment. nancy pelosi needs republicans and independentss to come over in big numbers, this is not going to do it because it will look like an inside job. >> this is what richland i had to say about that is on the same page with you. >> shortly after trump was elected, the washington post created a new motto type slogan. everybody laughed at it. democracy dies in darkness. yes it does and if you ask me

what is nancy pelosi's strategy from here?een opposed to this and suddenly she did a 180 and is going full steam ahead. she does not want to lose this, does she? kevin: so much of the focus has been on republicans and how they are navigating this. you are correct to point out the significant political challenges that the democratic controlled speaker of the house faces. she has to hold together to from the democratic party democratic-socialist's like alex -- alexandria ocasio-cortez. impeachment with something -- was something the base of the party has wanted, but it was not until the moderates got on board that she jumped in here on this. for the speaker of the house, she has to make sure this is something she can sell not only to the base but also to moderate members. guy: what does this mean for the rest of the agenda, the bread-and-butter business that congress would normally be enacting? what is a mean for usmca? what does it mean for the bread-and-butter issues? kevin: i have been told repeatedly by lawmakers, by congres

nancy pelosi is there.n to the speaker of the house. >> i had the -- just coincidental opportunity to be at breakfast with someone who served with him in the state ledge lay in maryland, and they said when elijah cummings would stand up in the state legislature, the house of delegates as it's called there, the room would fall silent. everyone wanted to hear what elijah has to say, and that is, of course, what was the case in congre congress, in his committee and in the country. he used to always say our children are our living messengers to a future we will ne

nancy pelosi is not afraid of them. what the president is trying to do there is keep republicans in their corner to make this partisan. especially on a day when the documentary evidence before you is pretty damning for the white house. this is a get everybody in the republican/democrat travel corners before they read all this stuff and maybe think, oh, we might have a problem here. >> look, it is true that the custom has been, as much as you can call it a custom since impeachment is so rare, but in recent history, there have been votes to formally start an impeachment inquiry. but as you mentioned, it is absolutely not necessary. what he's trying to do is very obvious, which is to try to put the democrats who are maybe in trump one districts and others who maybe are not that comfortable with this on the record to support the impeachment inquiry so they can run more effective ads against the democrats. but it does go both ways. they are retiring almost 20 retired republicans right now who don't have any political reason

we have to go back to building our country. 99% of nancy pelosi's time is spent on this. she should worry about lowering, the price of drugs which i have done. it is hard to do without the help of congress. border security. we have hundreds of miles of wall under construction on the southern border. she should worry about infrastructure. she should worry about the usmca. she is not doing it. i saw part of her press conference. i'm sorry to bother you with this, mr. president, because we have other things to talk about. she said drug prices. she has been trying to get drug prices down for -- how long has she been in congress? are you see was happening to her district? it is called tent city. we sent a violation to the city of san francisco, unsafe water, unsafe conditions, environmental. our epa is sending nancy pelosi, with all the talk about epa, there are needles and drugs all over the street. there are tents. there are people dying in squalor in the best location, san francisco. you have to see what's happening to san francisco. you have to see what the democrats have

nancy pelosi has the right to do this.ou look at the constitution, there is wide latitude for them to define how they want to do this. the question is why would she want to do this. if you look at prior impeachment proceedings, they all happen the same way whether you do them in public, you given the white house the ability to call their own witnesses, cross-examine witnesses, and the goal of this was to show that things were done transparently and to convince the public of the rightness of your cause because this is a political exercise. i think nancy pelosi's risk here is that you just have that pole, that's mostly what you're seeing in those numbers as democrats hardening their stance on impeachment, but nancy pelosi, she needs for republicans and independents to really come over in big numbers. this is not going to do it because going to look as though it's an inside job. >> this is what rush limbaugh had to say about that and he's probably on the same page with you. kim? >> shortly after trump was elected, "the washin

nancy pelosi and adam schiff. >> good morning everyone. being here as we observe the district work in the holy days. as we gather here our members across the country are having communication with their constituents on two subjects in particular, one perhaps. the first is on our legislation hr3 to lower the cost of prescription drugs now. we're very pleased at the response members are receiving as we've asked them to go out there to receive public comment on hr3 and when they return we will be ready to proceed in committee and others to present the legislation. hr3 is important because as i've said to you before, across the country you can see grown men cry at meetings because of the cost of prescription drugs. it's almost impossible for them to be healthy and financially healthy with the rising cost of prescription drugs. in the last year's election it was a high priority and it continues to be. when the president says he can't do anything because he has a threat of impeachment or the consideration of impeachment i hope he doesn't mean he
