SO I ASSUME THEY SENT SOME KIND

OF REPORT TO THE JUDICIARY

COMMITTEE AND THERE WILL BE SOME

PROCESS AND HOPEFULLY DUE

PROCESS BUT I HAVE FRANKLY NO

IDEA BECAUSE THIS HAS CHANGED

THROUGHOUT, THEY WERE ALREADY

DOING DEPOSITIONS AND THEN THEY

HOLD A VOTE WHICH THEY COULDN'T

KEEP ALL THEIR MEMBERS IN LINE

FOR, SO WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHAT

THEY HAVE IN STORE FOR US NEXT.

>> Bret: WILL YOU MOVE OVER TO

JUDICIARY TO DO THAT?

>> WHEN THE LEADER PUT ME IN

INTEL, I AM STILL ON THE

JUDICIARY COMMITTEE ON OVERSIGHT

COMMITTEE.

>> Bret: SO YOUR GUESS IS IT'S

GOING TO COME TO AN IMPEACHMENT

VOTE BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR.

>> I DO THINK THAT'S THE PATH

THEY ARE ON BUT AGAIN, YOU NEVER

KNOW WITH THESE GUYS.

THIS WAS THE MOST UNFAIR PROCESS

I'VE EVER SEEN.

WE WEREN'T ALLOWED TO CALL THE

WITNESSES THAT WE WANT, THE ONES

WE WANTED THEY IGNORED.

EVEN TODAY THEY HAVEN'T RELEASED

ALL THE DEPOSITIONS SO THERE

WERE CERTAIN TESTIMONY GIVEN IN

THESE DEPOSITIONS TAKEN IN THE

BUNKER OF THE BASEMENT OF THE

CAPITAL WE COULDN'T USE AN OPEN

HEARING.

SO WE WILL HAVE TO SEE BUT I

ANTICIPATE, THAT'S MY BEST

GUESS.

>> Bret: TODAY, DAVID HOLMES

WAS THERE, TO TESTIFY ABOUT THIS

PHONE CALL BETWEEN AMBASSADOR

SONDLAND AND THE PRESIDENT OF

THE UNITED STATES.

TAKE A LISTEN, AMBASSADOR TAYLOR

AND THEN YOUR QUESTION.

>> THE MEMBER OF MY STAFF ASKED

AMBASSADOR SONDLAND WHAT

PRESIDENT TRUMP THOUGHT ABOUT

UKRAINE.

MR. SONDLAND RESPONDED THAT

TRUMP CARES MORE ABOUT THE

INVESTIGATIONS OF BIOTIN.

>> WHY DIDN'T YOUR BOSS BRING UP

THE CALL?

>> ARE REFERRED TO THAT CALL, HE

NODDED KNOWINGLY AS THOUGH HE

HAD BEEN BRIEFED ON IT.

>> I ASKED WHY HE DIDN'T SHARE

IT WITH US.

>> EVERYONE IS NODDING, OF

COURSE THAT IS WHAT'S GOING ON.

OF COURSE THE PRESIDENT IS

PRESSING FOR A BITE AN

INVESTIGATION.

>> Bret: YOU GO DOWN THAT ROAD

AND GET TO THIS POINT WHERE A

LOT OF THE WITNESSES SAID THEY

CAME TO THE CONCLUSION IN

COURTING AMBASSADOR SONDLAND,

100% BY SEPTEMBER 8TH THAT THE

AID WAS TIED TO THE

INVESTIGATIONS OF BURISMA AND

BIDEN IN 2016.

>> MR. SONDLAND SAID THERE WAS

ANNOUNCEMENT THAT NEEDED TO BE

MADE BY PRESIDENT ZELENSKY THAT

THEY WOULD DO AN INVESTIGATION

INTO BURISMA AND THE BIDENS AND

THAT IF THE ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT

MADE, THEY DON'T GET THE CALL OR

THE MEETING ON THE MONEY.

AND THEY GOT THE CALL, THEY GOT

THE MEETING, THEY GOT THE

SECURITY ASSISTANCE DOLLARS AND

THERE WAS NEVER AN ANNOUNCEMENT

FOR PRESIDENT ZELENSKY OR ANYONE

ELSE IN UKRAINE AND THE

GOVERNMENT SO THIS IDEA THAT

THERE WAS A QUID PRO QUO DID NOT

HAPPEN, AND YET THEY CONTINUE TO

SAY THIS IS IMPEACHABLE.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT THAT AT ALL.

THIS IS ABOUT THEY HAVE NEVER

ACCEPTED THE WILL OF THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE WHEN 63 MILLION

AMERICANS IN AN ELECTORAL

COLLEGE LANDSLIDE SAID WE ARE

GOING TO SEND DONALD TRUMP TO

WASHINGTON AND SHAKE THAT TOWN

UP AND THE ESTABLISHMENT HAVE

NEVER ACCEPTED THAT AND THEY

WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES, FBI

INVESTIGATION, DOSSIER TO GET

HIM OUT, THAT'S WHAT THIS IS

REALLY ABOUT.

>> Bret: ONE, DO YOU BUY THAT

THESE PROFESSIONALS DIDN'T TIE

BURISMA TO BIDEN?

ALL OF THESE GUYS SAYING VOLKER

AND SONDLAND, SECRETARY PERRY,

DIDN'T TIE THAT BURISMA HAD TO

DO WITH JOE BIDEN?

>> SOME OF THEM DID TIED TO THAT

>> SOME OF THEM DID TIED TO THA

THAT.

KURT VOLKER HAS A DISTINGUISHED

CAREER, SPECIAL ENVOY.

A DEFINITIVE NARRATIVE ON THE

SPIRIT HE WAS THE FIRST WITNESS

THAT ADAM SCHIFF CALLED AND YET

HIS TESTIMONY IS THE ONE THAT I

THINK BEST TELLS THIS ENTIRE

STORY, THIS ENTIRE EPISODE WHERE

THERE WAS NEVER A QUID PRO QUO,

THAT IT ULTIMATELY GOT

DELIVERED.

SOMETIMES THESE THINGS GET HELD

UP.

WE HEARD TESTIMONY FROM LOTS OF

PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THAT AS

WELL SO IT ALL WORKED OUT IN THE

END BUT A NEW GUY NEVER BEEN IN

POLITICS WHAT WE'VE GOT, NEVER

NEVER BET ON POLITICS AND WANTED

TO CHECK HIM OUT AND PEOPLE DEAD

BUT THE 55 DAYS AT THE AID WAS

HELD, THE VICE PRESIDENT

AMBASSADOR BOLTON, WENT THERE

AND MET WITH THIS GUY AND THEY

ALL COME BACK AND SAID THIS, HE

IS THE REAL DEAL, REFORMER,

RELEASED THE DOLLARS THAT'S

EXACTLY WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP DID

EXACTLY WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP DI

DID.

>> Bret: AMBASSADOR SONDLAND

CALLS PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE

PRESIDENT HAS MESSED REFERENCED

IT MANY TIMES, I WANT NOTHING,

NO QUID PRO QUO.

AT THE SAME TIME, THE HOUSE

INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE LAUNCHES

THIS INVESTIGATION BASED ON THE

WHISTLE-BLOWER.

WE DON'T SEE A COINCIDENCE THEY

ARE?

>> I DON'T BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE

VICE PRESIDENT PENCE MET WITH

THIS GUY, HE HAD THE REFORMS

THEY DID IN THEIR PARLIAMENT

WHERE THEY STARTED THIS

CORRUPTION COURT WHAT THEY GOT

RID OF THE FORMER PROSECUTOR.

THERE WERE REFORMS THAT WERE

NEEDED AND YOU HAD A PRESIDENT,

DONALD TRUMP IS NOT A BIG FAN OF

FOREIGN AID IN THE FIRST PLACE,

HE WANTS EUROPEAN COUNTRIES TO

SHARE MORE OF THE BURDEN.

HE UNDERSTOOD THE CORRUPTION

PROBLEM AND SAID UKRAINE IS ONE

OF THE THREE MOST CORRUPT

COUNTRIES ON THE PLANET, PLUS HE

WAS CONCERNED ABOUT INFLUENCE OF

THE 2016 ELECTION AND THINGS

UKRAINIAN POLITICIANS WERE DOING

TO PERSUADE.

ALL THAT PACKAGE AND SAID BY THE

WAY, YOU'VE GOT A NEW PRESIDENT

SO HE SAID LET'S CHECK THIS GUY

OUT AND EVERYONE CAME BACK AND

SAID.

>> Bret: WHEN YOU HEAR

DEMOCRATS SAY IF IT IS ALL ON

THE UP AND UP, WHY DON'T YOU

GIVE US MICK MULVANEY AND

JOHN BOLTON, WHY DON'T YOU

RELEASE THE DOCUMENTS IN THE

WHITE HOUSE ON THE

STATE DEPARTMENT TO COMPLETE THE

PICTURE IF IT IS ALL ON THE UP

AND UP?

>> WHAT I SAID YESTERDAY AS IF

IT WAS A FAIR PROCESS, THEN YOU

CAN ASK US THAT QUESTION BUT

UNTIL THIS PROCESS HAS A

SEMBLANCE OF FAIRNESS OR DUE

PROCESS FOR THE MINORITY AND

MORE IMPORTANTLY FOR THE

PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES,

UNTIL WE GET TO THAT, WHEN WE

GET THOSE THINGS DONE MAYBE WE

CAN TALK ABOUT THAT BUT THAT IS

THE WHITE HOUSE IS CALLED.

I SEE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SEE

HOW UNFAIR THIS HAS BEEN

THROUGHOUT.

>> Bret: YOU THINK THE

PRESIDENT WILL BE IMPEACHED?

>> THEY'VE GOT THE NUMBERS BUT

WAS MOST TELLING ABOUT THAT VOTE

A FEW WEEKS AGO AS TWO DEMOCRATS

CAME OVER TO OUR SIDE.

IT DOESN'T LOOK PROMISING.

BASED ON THE WHISTLE-BLOWER,

SEEING WHAT HIS MOTIVATION WAS

FOR STARTING THIS WHOLE THING.

THAT IS THE PART THAT BOTHERS SO

MANY AMERICANS AND WHY THEY KNOW

INSTINCTIVELY THIS IS UNFAIR.

>> Bret: YORK COLLEAGUE ON THE

COMMITTEE SAID HE DIDN'T LIKE

THE CALL, HE THOUGHT IT WAS

INAPPROPRIATE.

CAN YOU GET THERE?

>> NO.

PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS HIS OWN WAY

OF CONDUCTING BUSINESS.

I LIKE THE WAY HE OPERATES.

I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE LIKE

A GUY WHO COMES HERE AND IS

SHAKING THIS TOWN UP AND AGAIN

AS I SAID, THE FACTS ARE ON THE

PRESIDENT SIDE AND THE AMERICAN

PEOPLE HAVE SAID THIS HAS BEEN

TOTALLY UNFAIR.

>> Bret: TWITTER QUESTION,

HAVE YOU EVER WORN A JACKET?

>> I HAVE.

YOU HAVE TO WEAR ONE ON THE

HOUSE FLOOR AND I ALWAYS DO WHEN

I'M AROUND THE PRESIDENT.

>> Bret: THANK YOU.
