  • >> THANK YOU.

  • >> IN 1998, SENATOR SCHUMER SAID

  • AND I QUOTE, THIS IMPEACHMENT

  • WILL BE USED AS A ROUTINE TOOL

  • TO FIGHT POLITICAL BATTLES.

  • WE THOUGHT WOULD SAY A

  • PREDICTION.

  • IT WAS A PROMISE.

  • NOW IT'S PLAYING OUT.

  • IT'S EXACTLY WHAT IS BEING DONE

  • HERE.

  • FOR THOSE THAT SAY WE DON'T

  • ADDRESS THE DEFENSES OR FACT,

  • HERE YOU GO.

  • THE IMPEACHMENT SERVES TWO

  • PURPOSES.

  • NUMBER 1, STOP THE INVESTIGATION

  • BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF

  • JUSTICE AND UKRAINE IN TO THE

  • CORRUPTION OF UKRAINE

  • INTERFERENCE IN THE U.S.

  • ELECTION IN 2016.

  • YOU SAID THIS WAS ABOUT OH, THIS

  • TERRIBLE RUSSIAN COLLUSION.

  • THAT FELL THROUGH.

  • IT'S ABOUT EMOLUMENTS, BRIBERY,

  • EXTORTION.

  • IT'S CHANGED.

  • ONE THING HASN'T CHANGED AND

  • THAT IS THE INTENT TO IMPEACH

  • THIS PRESIDENT.

  • IT'S ALWAYS BEEN THERE.

  • LET'S BE HONEST.

  • THE PRESIDENT TURNING HIS BACK

  • ON UKRAINE, THAT HAPPENED IN

  • 2009.

  • IN 2008, UKRAINE INVADED

  • GEORGIA.

  • WHAT HAPPENED?

  • BUSH PUT SANCTIONS ON RUSSIA TO

  • TEACH THEM A LESSON.

  • WHAT HAPPENED?

  • IN MARCH OF 2009, HILLARY

  • CLINTON WAS SENT TO RUSSIA WITH

  • A RESET BUTTON TO SAY, BUSH

  • OVERREACTED.

  • WE'RE OKAY THAT YOU INVADED

  • GEORGIA.

  • IT WAS A GREEN LIGHT TO RUSSIA

  • TO INVADE UKRAINE AND WHAT DO

  • YOU DO?

  • OH, YEAH, YOU SEND BLANKETS AND

  • MREs THAT YOU EAT AND BE WARM

  • WHILE THE RUSSIANS ARE KILLING

  • THEM.

  • THAT IS WHAT THE OBAMA

  • ADMINISTRATION DID.

  • THIS IS A TRAVESTY.

  • WE'RE IN BIG TROUBLE.

  • SCHUMER WAS RIGHT.

  • NOW IT'S LOWERED EVEN FURTHER,

  • THE BAR.

  • IT WILL BE USED FOR POLITICAL

  • BATTLES AND THIS COUNTRY'S END

  • IS NOW IN SIGHT.

  • I HOPE I DON'T LIVE TO SEE IT.

  • THIS IS AN OUTRAGE.

  • I YIELD BACK.

  • >> GENTLEMAN FROM NEW YORK.

  • >> I'M DEEPLY CONCERNED THAT ANY

  • MEMBER OF THE HOUSE WOULD SPOUT

  • RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA ON THE FLOOR

  • OF THE HOUSE.

  • I NOW YIELD ONE MINUTE TO THE
