ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.
>> Bill: BRING IN NEWT GINGRICH
FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AUTHOR OF
A NEW BOOK CALLED "TRUMP VERSUS
CHINA."
CRANKING THOSE THINGS OUT EVERY
THREE MONTHS.
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN.
IT STRIKES ME BASED ON
YESTERDAY YOU HAVE TO HAVE A
PUBLIC HEARING IN ORDER FOR
DEMOCRATS TO SAY HERE IS OUR
CARDS.
WE'LL SHOW YOU OUR HAND.
>> THE FIRST QUESTION TO PELOSI
IS WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?
THIS GUY GOES IN, REPUTABLE
FOREIGN OFFICER, HE GIVES
TESTIMONY, I READ HIS WRITTEN
STATEMENT THIS MORNING.
AND THE REPUBLICANS WALK OUT
AND SAY WITHIN MINUTES THEY HAD
DEMOLISHED HIS ENTIRE TESTIMONY.
NOW, THEN THEY SAY BY THE WAY,
WE CANNOT TELL YOU ANYTHING
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.
YOU HAVE TO SAY TO YOURSELF WHY
IS IT THAT PELOSI AND SCHIFF
BELIEVE THAT THEY HAVE TO MAKE
A CASE IN SECRET BECAUSE THEY
CAN'T DEFEND IT IN PUBLIC AND
OF COURSE WHAT THEY'RE DOING BY
SELECTIVELY -- THEY'RE SMEARING
THE PRESIDENT.
THEY THINK IN THE LONG RUN
THEY'RE WEAKENING HIM.
I DON'T.
WHAT LINDSEY GRAHAM IS DOING IN
THE SENATE TO WORK ON A
RESOLUTION TO SAY THE WHOLE
THING IS A CHARADE AND THE
SENATE SHOULDN'T CONSIDER
TAKING IT UP DOING IT DONE IN A
WAY THAT WAS OUTLAWED.
THE SECRET HEARING WAS OUTLAWED
IN 1641.
IT IS INHERENTLY TO THE
ADVANTAGE OF THE STATE TO CRUSH
THE INDIVIDUAL.
SO WE HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING
LIKE THIS IN ALMOST 400 YEARS.
>> Bill: GET BACK TO THE POINT
ABOUT SELECTIVE LEAKING.
THE STRATEGY SEEMS TO BE
WORKING.
THERE WAS A POLL THAT CAME OUT
THIS MORNING THAT SAY 55% OF
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NOW FAVOR
THE IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY.
IF THAT'S YOUR STRATEGY IT
SEEMS TO BE GOING THE WAY THEY
WANT IT TO GO.
>> IF THE ELECTION WERE NEXT
THURSDAY IT MIGHT BE A GOOD
STRATEGY.
THE ELECTION ISN'T NEXT
THURSDAY.
WE WENT THROUGH THE WHOLE CYCLE
WITH RUSSIA AND MUELLER AND
EVERYBODY RUNNING IN CIRCLES
AND IT FADED AWAY.
NOW WE HAVE A NEW DEAL AND WE
HAVE SCHIFF INSTEAD OF MUELLER
AND WE HAVE A TOTALLY RIGGED
GAME.
IT IS ALL BEING DONE IN SECRET.
IT CAN'T STAY IN SECRET.
IT HAS TO COME OUT AT SOME
POINT.
THEN YOU HAVE TO FIND OUT AS WE
DID WITH THE WHISTLEBLOWER WHO
JUST DISAPPEARED.
THEY CAN'T BRING THE
WHISTLEBLOWER OUT BECAUSE HE
HAS NOTHING TO BLOW.
HE KNEW NOTHING PERSONALLY.
NOW HOW CAN YOU TAKE THAT AS A
SERIOUS CREDIBLE CHARGE?
>> Bill: YOU READ THE INTRO
THAT BILL TAYLOR READ YESTERDAY.
IT LASTED AN HOUR.
YOU WENT THROUGH IT, I WENT
THROUGH IT.
WHAT WAS YOUR TAKE ON IT?
>> MY TAKE IS THERE IS A VERY
SMART MAN WHO BELIEVED IN A
CERTAIN WORLDVIEW IN A CERTAIN
PROCEDURE BUT THE TRUTH IS
FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT USED
PERSONAL ASSISTANCE.
WOODROW WILSON DID.
THIS IDEA THAT SOMEHOW TRUMP IS
DOING SOMETHING UNIQUE IS A
PURELY MADE UP BUNCH OF BALONEY.
I PRESUME TAYLOR DOESN'T LIKE
TRUMP'S STYLE AND DISAGREED
WITH HIS POLLZ. ALL RIGHT SO
SAY I DISAGREED.
DOESN'T MAKE IT IMPEACHABLE.
>> Bill: RECALLING THE
AMBASSADOR IN MAY AS WELL.
>> ALL AMBASSADORS SERVE AT THE
PLEASURE OF THE PRESIDENT,
PERIOD.
>> Bill: MITCH MCCONNELL I
THINK WHEN YOU WATCH HIS
STATEMENTS AND READ HIS WORDS
CAREFULLY THEY CAN BE REVEALING.
HERE IS PART OF WHAT HE SAID
YESTERDAY ON THE HILL.
>> UNLIKE OTHER PROCEDURES IN
THE SENATE, THE MAJORITY LEADER
DOES NOT REALLY HAVE BALL
CONTROL HERE.
WHEN IT COMES OVER FROM THE
HOUSE, WE HAVE TO TAKE IT UP.
I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG THIS
WILL GO ON.
>> Bill: I'M CONFUSED BY THAT.
IT SEEMS LIKE HE IS OPENING THE
DOOR TO THIS.
HE LATER REFERENCES JUSTICE
ROBERTS.
THE CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE U.S.
SUPREME COURT.
THE WAY THE RULES OF
IMPEACHMENT PROCEED IN THE
SENATE, TWO WEEKS AGO HE HAD A
FACEBOOK POST SAYING AS LONG AS
I'M SENATE MAJORITY LEADER
IMPEACHMENT GOES NOWHERE.
HE SAID BY THE RULES WE HAVE TO
TAKE UP IMPEACHMENT.
THE QUESTION IS HOW LONG WE
SPEND ON IT.
I DIDN'T HEAR THAT SAME ANSWER
YESTERDAY.
IS SOMETHING CHANGING WITH HIM?
>> WHO KNOWS?
MITCH MCCONNELL IS AN
EXTRAORDINARILY SMART MANAGER
OF THE SENATE AND HAS A PRETTY
GOOD SENSE OF WHERE HIS MEMBERS
ARE.
HE HAS A FEELING AND I'VE
GOTTEN THIS FROM SEVERAL
SENATORS, THIS IS A POINT TO BE
WISE AND CALM AND JUDICIOUS,
DRAW THE CONTRAST WITH THE
DEMOCRATS IN THE HOUSE.
BUT THE SENATE ALWAYS HAS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SAY THAT THERE
IS NOTHING HERE.
IF A GRAND JURY REPORTS AND THE
HOUSE IS A GRAND JURY IN THIS
SETTING.
IF A GRAND JURY UTTERS
SOMETHING, THE SENATE CAN TURN
AND SAY NO, WE DON'T BELIEVE IT
AND WE AREN'T TAKING IT UP.
THEY WOULD TAKE IT UP LONG
ENOUGH TO DISMISS IT.
>> Bill: WHICH COULD BE FIVE
MINUTES OR A MONTH OR LONGER.
>> RIGHT.
AND MCCONNELL SAID LOOK IN A
WORST CASE YOU'LL BE HERE ALL
OF DECEMBER.
CLEAR YOUR SCHEDULES FOR ALL OF
DECEMBER.
>> Bill: TULSI GABBARD GOING
AFTER HILLARY CLINTON OF BEING
A RUSSIAN AGENT.
HERE IS WHAT SHE SAID IN RETURN
YESTERDAY.
>> HILLARY CLINTON, YOUR
FOREIGN POLICY HAS BEEN A
DISASTER FOR OUR COUNTRY AND
THE WORLD.
IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THE DAMAGE THAT
YOU'VE CAUSED.
IT IS LONG PAST TIME FOR YOU TO
STEP DOWN FROM YOUR THRONE SO
THE DEMOCRATIC CAN LEAD WITH A
NEW FOREIGN POLICY.
>> Bill: IT STRIKES ME THAT
PUTIN IS LIVING DEEP IN THE
HEADS OF ALL AMERICANS.
RUSSIA AND UKRAINE AND
COLLUSION AND ON AND ON.
AND THIS IS MORE EVIDENCE OF IT.
>> I DON'T THINK PUTIN EXISTS
MUCH IN THE UKRAINE CASE.
THAT'S ABOUT CORRUPTION IN
UKRAINE THAT WOULD EXIST
WITHOUT RUSSIA.
I THINK PUTIN DOES EXIST DEEP
IN HILLARY'S HEAD.
SHE REACHED THE CONCLUSION SHE
COULDN'T POSSIBLY HAVE LOST SO
THE RUSSIANS MUST HAVE STOLEN
IT AND THEREFORE IT'S THE
RUSSIANS' FAULT.
BUT THIS IS VERY SIMILAR TO
WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE HOUSE.
SOMEBODY SHOULD SAY TO HILLARY
CLINTON, SHOW US YOUR PROOF.
YOU MADE A TERRIBLE CHARGE
AGAINST A MEMBER OF CONGRESS
WHO IS A MILITARY VETERAN.
THE BURDEN IS ON YOU, HILLARY,
TO PROVE WHAT YOU JUST SAID AND
THE SAME THING IS TRUE IN THE
HOUSE.
PEOPLE SHOULD SAY TO SCHIFF AND
PELOSI YOU DON'T HAVE THE GUTS
TO DO IT IN PUBLIC.
WHY SHOULD WE TAKE YOU
SERIOUSLY?
>> WE'LL SEE IF IT GOES PUBLIC.
MY GUESS IS IT HAS TO.
MR. SPEAKER, THANK YOU VERY
