AND SAYING THAT THEY WISH TO
CHANGE THEIR VOTE.
THAT COULD TAKE -- HERE WE GO.
>> ON THIS VOTE, THE AYES ARE
232.
THE NAYS ARE 197.
THE RESOLUTION IS ADOPTED.
WITHOUT OBJECT, THE MOTION TO
RECONSIDER IS LAID UPON THE
TABLE.
>> SO THE HOUSE HAS IMPEACHED
DONALD TRUMP FOR THE SECOND
TIME.
FOR THE FIRST TIME WITH
REPUBLICANS -- TEN REPUBLICANS
CROSSING THE AISLE TO VOTE FOR
IMPEACHMENT INCLUDING THE NUMBER
THREE REPUBLICAN LIZ CHENEY,
DAUGHTER OF FORMER VICE
PRESIDENT IN AN EXTRAORDINARY
MOMENT, ONE WEEK ALMOST TO THE
HOUR AFTER RIOTERS STORMED THE
CAPITOL LEAVING FIVE DEAD.
>> PURSUANT TO SECTION 3A OF
HOUSE RESOLUTION 41, THE HOUSE RESOLUTION 40 IS HEREBY ADOPTED.
>> AND -- DOTTING THE "I" THERE.
SAVANNAH, PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS
BEEN IMPEACHED AGAIN.
>> -- IN THE ORDER OF THE
FOLLOWING OF THE HOUSE OF
JANUARY 4, 2021, OF THE
FOLLOWING MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE
TO THE PERMANENT SELECT
COMMITTEE OF INTELLIGENCE.
>> LET’S BRING --
>> MR. SCHIFF OF CALIFORNIA
CHAIR, MR. NEWSPAPER EZUNEZ OF C
>> WE WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP OUR
EYE ON THE FLOOR AND THE ACTION
NOW MOVES TO THE SENATE AND
THERE IS SOME SUSPENSE, CHUCK,
AS I BRING YOU INTO THE
CONVERSATION ABOUT WHAT EXACTLY
COULD HAPPEN THERE.
WE KNOW SOMETHING OF THE WHEN.
WE KNOW IT WON’T BE BEFORE
JANUARY 19th AND MAJORITY LEADER
MITCH McCONNELL HAS MADE THAT
CLEAR, AS OF TODAY HE IS NOT
GOING TO USE ANY MECHANISM TO
BRING THE SENATE BACK IN EARLY.
CHUCK SCHUMER, THE DEMOCRATIC
LEADER OF THE SENATE HAD BEEN
FLOATING THE IDEA TO DO THAT,
BUT THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
SO WE WON’T SEE THE SENATE IN
SESSION UNTIL JANUARY 19th, BUT
THE QUESTION IS THEN WHAT?
HOW MIGHT A TRIAL PROCEED?
WILL REPUBLICANS CROSS OVER TO
CONVICT?
WILL ENOUGH TO REMOVE FROM
OFFICE OR BAN PRESIDENT TRUMP
FROM HOLDING FUTURE FEDERAL
OFFICE IF HE’S ALREADY LEFT?
BECAUSE OF COURSE, THE OTHER DAY
TO MARK ON YOUR CALENDAR,
JANUARY 20th IS THE DAY THAT THE
NEW PRESIDENT IS INAUGURATED.
>> HERE’S ONE THING I WOULD SAY,
TODAY IS JANUARY 13th, THE START
OF THE TRIAL IS JANUARY 19th.
WE WILL LEARN A LOT IN SIX DAYS.
WE WILL GET -- EVERY HOUR WE SEE
MORE PEOPLE CHARGED.
WE LEARN MORE INFORMATION ABOUT
THE PLOT FROM LAST WEEK.
THERE IS MORE FACTS THAT ARE
FILLED IN AND ASK YOURSELF HOW
MUCH MORE WILL WE KNOW ON
JANUARY 19th THAN WE KNOW TODAY?
THAT SAID, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT
TIME DOES, RIGHT?
WHAT DOES -- WHAT DOES TIME DO?
DOES TIME CALM THE WATERS IN THE
GOP?
DOES SUDDENLY LINDSAY GRAHAM WHO
IS BECOMING THE CHIEF DEFENDER
AGAINST IMPEACHMENT FOR
PRESIDENT TRUMP IN THE SENATE.
DOES HE HAVE SOME SUCCESS
FINDING, HE NEEDS AT THIS POINT
TO LOCK IN 35, APPROXIMATELY,
35 --
>> DON’T FORGET THE BIGGEST X
FACTOR, CHUCK, PRESIDENT TRUMP
HIMSELF.
>> I NOTED THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP
MAKING HIS FIRST PUBLIC
APPEARANCE, HIS FIRST LIVE
PUBLIC APPEARANCE YESTERDAY ON
HIS WAY TO TEXAS.
HIS REMARKS WERE FOLLOWED WITHIN
JUST A MATTER OF HOURS BY MITCH
McCONNELL THAT REPORT IN "THE
NEW YORK TIMES "QWEST" THAT MAYB
OPEN TO IMPEACHMENT.
IT’S WASHINGTON, WE READ INTO
THINGS MAYBE WHEN WE SHOULDN’T,
BUT I THOUGHT THAT WAS VERY
STRIKING.
LAST WEEK MITCH McCONNELL SAID
YOU’RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY
TRIAL.
DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT AND
WITHIN HOURS OF THE PRESIDENT
SAYING, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF
PEOPLE THINK WHAT I SAID AND HOW
I CONDUCTED MYSELF ON THE DAY OF
THE RIOT WAS TOTALLY APPROPRIATE
AND WITHIN HOURS MITCH McCONNELL
WITH A SHOT ACROSS THE BOW, HEY,
THIS ISN’T OVER.
>> WE’RE STILL TRYING TO CONFIRM
ALL OF THAT TIME, BUT I’M WITH
YOU.
I THOUGHT THE ENTIRE THING
WAS -- IT ALMOST NOW IN
HINDSIGHT ESPECIALLY LINDSAY
GRAHAM TRAVELING WITH THE
PRESIDENT YESTERDAY, IT ALMOST
LOOKED LIKE McCONNELL SAID I’LL
GIVE YOU BY THE END OF THE DAY
TO SEE IF YOU CAN GET CONTRITION
OUT OF HIM, AND WITHIN MINUTES
OF WHEELS UP FROM D.C., THERE’S
THE HEADLINE IN "THE NEW YORK
TIMES."
NOTHING IN THIS TOWN HAPPENS BY
ACCIDENT AND THAT IS WHAT YOU
LEARN THE LONGER YOU COVER THIS
PLACE.
THE TIMING ISSUE IS ONE UNKNOWN
FACTOR.
I’LL TELL YOU THIS, I KNOW OF A
LOT OF POLLING THAT’S BEING DONE
ABOUT THIS, AND I’LL TELL YOU,
THE REPUBLICAN GRASSROOTS HAVE
NOT ABANDONED DONALD TRUMP, AND
NONE OF US KNOW HOW THAT IMPACTS
SOME OF THESE REPUBLICAN
SENATORS, RIGHT?
ARE THEY GOING TO BE MOVED BY
POLLS OR NOT?
ARE THERE 17 REPUBLICANS THAT
ARE THINKING THE WAY IT APPEARS
MITCH McCONNELL IS THINKING AND
GOING, YOU KNOW WHAT?
SHORT TERM POLITICS, IMPEACHMENT
MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA.
LONG TERM?
HAVING DONALD TRUMP AROUND IS
NOT A GOOD IDEA FOR THE PARTY.
