>> DO YOU HAVE ANY ANXIETY ABOUT
ANY OF THE STUFF WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT IMPACTING YOUR ABILITY TO
HOLD CONTROL OF THE HOUSE?
>> DOESN'T MATTER, BECAUSE WE
CANNOT HAVE A PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES UNDERMINING HIS
OATH OF OFFICE.
PETE: HOUSE DEMOCRATS STILL
PUSHING TO IMPEACH PRESIDENT
TRUMP.
NANCY PELOSI GOING AS FAR TO
JUST SAY IT WOULD BE WORTH
LOSING THE HOUSE MAJORITY.
ED: CONGRESSMAN DEVIN NUÑES,
RANKING MEMBER ON THE HOUSE
INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
GOOD MORNING, SIR.
>> MORNING, GUYS.
ED: WHAT IN THE WORLD WERE YOU
THINKING AS YOU SAT NEXT TO ADAM
SCHIFF AND HEARD HIM MAKE UP
WHAT THE PRESIDENT SAID IN THAT
CALL WITH THE UKRAINIAN LEADER?
>> WELL, SO MANY PEOPLE AROUND
THE COUNTRY HAVE SENT ME THE
PICTURES OF MYSELF AND JOHN
RATCLIFFE AS HE'S SAYING THAT,
WE'RE THINKING TO OURSELVES,
WAIT A SECOND, THIS ISN'T WHAT
HAPPENED.
AND THEN THE, LIKE, 30 SECONDS
LATER ALL MY COLLEAGUES WERE --
YOU CAN CATCH IT ON SOME OF THE
FILM -- WE'RE SITTING THERE
TALKING K AND WE JUST STARTED
LAUGHING LIKE, OH, MY GOD, THIS
GUY JUST MADE ALL THIS UP.
HE JUST FABRICATED A STORY.
PETE: HAVE YOU SEEN THAT BEFORE?
IS THERE PRECEDENT FOR WHAT THEY
DEEM TO BE A SERIOUS HEARING,
WE'RE GOING TO GET TO THE BOTTOM
OF IT, AND THEN SOMEONE GOES
INTO STORYTIME?
>> WELL, BY THEIR OWN ADMISSION,
IT'S NOT SERIOUS BECAUSE LATER
THEY CALLED IT A PARODY.
SO THE DEFINITION OF A PARODY IS
IT HAS TO BE COMEDY.
SO BY THEIR OWN DEFINITION,
THEY'RE NOT SERIOUS, THIS WHOLE
THING IS NOT SERIOUS.
THIS IS SOME KIND OF CONCOCTED
PLAN THAT THEY HAVE TO DRIVE
QUICKLY TOWARDS IMPEACHMENT.
THIS'S WHAT THEY'RE USE --
THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE USING THIS
FOR, AND HOPEFULLY, THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE -- THEY SAW THROUGH THE
RUSSIA HOAX.
THIS IS THE SEQUEL, LIKE THE BAD
UKRAINIAN HOAX, AND I DON'T
THINK IT'S GOING TO BE ANY
BETTER.
ED: CONGRESSMAN, WE'VE BEEN
TALKING ABOUT HOW UKRAINE'S
FORMER PRIME MINISTER BREAKING
SOME NEWS THIS MORNING SAYING HE
BELIEVES FORMER VICE PRESIDENT
JOE BIDEN'S BUSINESS DEALINGS
SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.
DO YOU THINK THEY'RE TRYING TO
DISTRACT FROM THAT STORY, AND
HOW DO YOU PLAN TO GET TO THE
BOTTOM OF ALL THAT?
>> WELL, I KEEP REMINDING PEOPLE
THAT WE HAVE LONG BEEN
INTERESTED IN THE ORIGINS OF THE
RUSSIA HOAX.
OUT ALL BEGINS AND ENDS -- IT
ALL BEGINS AND ENDS IN UKRAINE.
SO I SAY THIS BECAUSE IF YOU GO
BACK TO THE STEELE DOSSIER, THIS
IS THE CLINTON-PAID-FOR DIRT, IT
ORIGINATED IN UKRAINE.
IF YOU BELIEVE THEIR SOURCES, IT
ORIGINATED IN UKRAINE.
SO LET'S JUST BRING THIS BACK TO
REALITY HERE, OKAY?
SO WHAT DID PRESIDENT TRUMP DO,
SUPPOSEDLY, THAW SAY?
HE SAID, HEY, I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT HAPPENED IN UKRAINE.
WHAT HAPPENED?
WHAT WERE ALL THESE DEMOCRATS
DOING, WHERE WAS THIS
INFORMATION COMING FROM?
THAT'S WHAT THE PRESIDENT DID.
THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT TO IMPEACH
HIM ON.
NOW REMEMBER, WE MAY HAVE TO
BRING BOB MUELLER OUT OF
RETIREMENT HERE --
[LAUGHTER]
BECAUSE BOB MUELLER LOOKED AT
ALL OF THIS, OKAY?
HE KNEW THAT THE CLINTON
CAMPAIGN, CHRISTOPHER STEELE,
FUSION GPS, OTHER DNC
CONTRACTORS, OKAY, LIKE CHALUPA,
THOSE ARE ALL DEMOCRATS, ALL
AMERICANS EXCEPT FOR ONE BRIT.
THEY ALL GOT THAT INFORMATION
FROM THE UKRAINIANS, OKAY?
SO IT MUST BE A CRIME.
WHERE THE HELL'S BOB MUELLER
WHEN WE NEED HIM, BECAUSE HE
