AINSLEY: OKAY.
THE AUDIENCE IS SO EXCITED
FOR OUR NEXT GUESTS.
FRUSTRATIONS AT A BOILING
POINT ON CAPITOL HILL AS
HOUSE DEMOCRATS POSTPONE
THEIR IMPEACHMENT VOTE.
STEVE: REPUBLICAN
CONGRESSMAN DOUG COLLINS
BLASTING DEMOCRATS FOR THE
DELAY SET BY CHAIRMAN NADLER
AND HE JOINS US LIVE FROM
OUR NATION'S CAPITOL.
YOU ARE ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO
BE ON THE COUCH WITH US
TODAY.
BUT A FUNNY THING HAPPENED
BETWEEN HERE AND THE COUCH.
WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT?
>> I THINK IT'S CALLED
DEMOCRATS AND TELEVISION
CAMERAS IS WHAT HAPPENED
LAST NIGHT.
THEY GOT TIRED.
AND THEY SAID THAT THEY --
THEY SAID CHAIRMAN NADLER
MADE A CALCULATION GET IT TO
ANOTHER MORNING AND DRAG
THIS OUT A LITTLE BIT
FURTHER BECAUSE THEY HAVE
NOTHING THEY HAVE ON THIS
PRESIDENT.
WE PROVED ALL DAY YESTERDAY
THAT THE FACTS ARE JUST
WRONG.
THEY ARE ON THE WRONG SIDE
OF HISTORY.
LAST NIGHT TO BE, I GUESS,
CUTE BY HALF THEY SAID WE
WILL PUT THIS OFF TO GO
PRAYERFULLY CONSIDER WHAT
WE'RE GOING TO DO AT 10:00
A.M.
BRIAN, THEY HAVE NOT
PRAYERFULLY CONSIDERED
ANYTHING FOR THREE YEARS.
THEY WANTED TO CONSIDER
SOMETHING THIS HAPPENED.
CHAIRMAN NADLER DONE NOTHING
BUT CONDUCTING THIS
INVESTIGATION TO THIS POINT
THIS YEAR.
IT'S A TRAVESTY TO THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE AND IT WILL
SHOW UP NEXT NOVEMBER.
AINSLEY: SAYING IMPEACH,
IMPEACH, IMPEACH.
FINDING REASONS TO IMPEACH.
THEY FINALLY GET TO THE VOTE
AND THEY DON'T WANT TO DO
IT.
THIS MORNING THEY WILL DO IT
WHEN ALL THE TELEVISION
CAMERAS ARE WATCHING WHEN
CALIFORNIA IS AWAKE.
WHAT WAS YOUR REACTION?
I HEARD YOU LAST NIGHT
SAYING THIS IS A KANGAROO
COURT.
THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
HOW DOES THIS CHANGE
EVERYONE'S PLANS?
LISTEN, I'M NOT SAYING
CONGRESS SHOULDN'T WORK.
I'M GLAD YOU ARE ALL THERE.
I'M SORRY IT'S INTERRUPTING
YOUR CHRISTMAS AND GOING
HOME THIS WEEKEND.
BUT, WHAT WERE FOLKS SAYING
IN THE HALLS OF CONGRESS?
WERE THEY SAYING I WAS
SUPPOSED TO BE AT MY
DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY
TOMORROW?
THEY ARE JUST DOING THIS FOR
SHOW.
THEY ARE HIJACKING YOUR
WEEKEND BECAUSE THEY JUST
WANT THIS TO BE ON
TELEVISION.
>> RIGHT.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WAS WHO
WANT TO FOLLOW ME AROUND, I
WILL SHOW THEM HOW WE WORK
ALL THE TIME.
I WORK FOR MY PEOPLE IN THE
NINTH DISTRICT OF GEORGIA.
I HAVE NO PROBLEM BEING UP
HERE.
WHAT I DO HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH THERE IS NOTHING
CONTROVERSIAL ABOUT THIS
VOTE.
THEY KNOW HOW THEY ARE GOING
TO VOTE.
THEY HAVE KNOWN.
THIS WAS A STUNT BY MY
CHAIRMAN THIS IS BUSH
LEAGUE.
THIS IS WHAT THIS WAS.
NORMALLY IN ANY ENVIRONMENT.
THE CHAIRMAN AND RANKING
MEMBER TALK ABOUT SCHEDULING
ISSUE.
WE CAN DISAGREE ABOUT THE
COLOR OF THE SUN WE TALK
ABOUT SCHEDULING.
WHAT I DID FIND OUT LAST
NIGHT SOME OF HIS OBSERVE
MEMBERS DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS
GOING TO PUT IT THE T. AT
10:00 THIS MORNING.
THIS SHOWS HOW SCARED
THEY'RE OF OPTICS AND
POLITICS AND HOW THEY DON'T
HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE AND MAKE IT
UP AS THEY GO.
THEY THINK IF THEY SAY IT
LONG ENOUGH OR LOUD ENOUGH
PEOPLE WILL BELIEVE THEM.
BRIAN: ONE THICK THAT WAS
OUTRAGEOUS.
WHEN THEY SAID THAT DONALD
TRUMP IS LEAVING THE
UKRAINIANS OUT THERE WITHOUT
ANY WEAPONS AND YOU DON'T
BEING HE NO WHAT IT'S LIKE.
YOU SERVED IN THE MILITARY
THERE IS A LOFT REPUBLICANS
THERE AND THAT'S WHERE THE
RUBBER HIT THE ROAD FOR YOU
GUYS.
BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS
ADMINISTRATION DIDN'T GIVE
THEM ANY WEAPONS.
THEY GAVE THEM SUPPLIES AND
THEY GAVE IT TO A THIRD
NATION.
NOT EVEN DIRECTLY TO
UKRAINE.
THE PRESIDENT DELAYED MONEY
AFTER TWO YEARS OF GIVING
THEM MONEY.
>> BLANKETS DON'T STOP
BULLETS.
YESTERDAY ERIC SWALWELL WHO
COMES UP WITH AMAZINGLY BAD
IDEAS.
YESTERDAY DECIDED TO DOUBLE
DOWN AND TRIPLE DOWN ON THIS
IDEA THAT UKRAINIANS DIED
BECAUSE THE MONEY WAS BEING
HELD.
UNDER SECRETARY HAIL
DESTROYED THAT ARGUMENT.
ALL THE MONEY WE ARE
DISCUSSING IS FOR FUTURE
EVENTS NOT THE CURRENT.
THEY KEPT PERPETRATING THAT
LAW OVER AND OVER AND OVER
AGAIN.
IT'S NOT FAIR TO THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
NO ONE DIED BECAUSE WHAT WAS
HAPPENING.
THAT WAS A PROPER USE OF
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S AUTHORITY.
IT WAS NOT DUE EVEN UNTIL
SEPTEMBER 30TH.
TO SAY THAT UKRAINIANS DIED
BECAUSE THE MONEY WAS BEING
HELD WAS A LIE TO THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
THEY OWE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
AND FRANKLY THE UKRAINIAN
PARENTS WHOSE KIDS DIED USED
AS A PROP AN APOLOGY.
STEVE: DOUG COLLINS JOINING
US FROM CAPITOL HILL TODAY.
