  • TODD: IMPEACHMENT REACHING A

  • BOILING POINT AFTER THE GOP

  • SENATOR, MITCH MCCONNELL AT

  • LOYALTY TO THE WHITE HOUSE.

  • >> AN OP-ED SAYS IT IS ANOTHER

  • DEMOCRATIC TALKING POINT.

  • TODD: THANKS FOR BEING HERE

  • FRANCEY.

  • MITCH MCCONNELL SAID, QUOTE, HE

  • WOULD WORK IN TOTAL COORDINATION

  • WITH THE HOUSE AND IS NOT

  • IMPARTIAL ABOUT THIS AT ALL.

  • GOP SENATOR LISA MURKOWSKI SAID

  • SHE WAS DISTURBED WHEN SHE HEARD

  • HIS COMMENTS.

  • BYRON YORK ISSUED THE FOLLOWING

  • OP-ED.

  • THE SENATE IS NOT A JURY AND

  • OTHER MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT

  • IMPEACHMENT.

  • DO YOU AGREE WITH BYRON YORK'S

  • ASSESSMENT.

  • >> BYRON IS RIGHT.

  • THIS IS A QUALIFIED LEGAL

  • PROCEEDING.

  • THE BIG NEWS IN HISTORY, DONALD

  • TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED, PEOPLE CALL

  • THAT INDICTMENT, WE TRY TO

  • EQUATE THAT TO THE LEGAL SYSTEM

  • BUT THAT IS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT

  • POINT THAT HAPPENED AND IT WILL

  • BE A HISTORIC NOSE ON HIS

  • RECORD.

  • IT IS NOT LIKE AN INDICTMENT

  • WHICH IS GENERALLY HANDED DOWN

  • BY A GRAND JURY IN SECRET.

  • THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT THIS

  • PROCESS THAT REPRESENTED FULL

  • AND FAIR FUNDAMENTAL DUE PROCESS

  • WE EXPECT UNDER THE

  • CONSTITUTION.

  • THIS IS PURELY POLITICAL.

  • MCCONNELL IS COORDINATING WITH

  • THE WHITE HOUSE, IN THE SAME

  • POLITICAL PARTY, NOT A SURPRISE.

  • >> GREGORY WAS ON CNN AND SAID

  • THIS ABOUT LISA MURKOWSKI.

  • TAKE A LISTEN.

  • >> HE IS GOING TO WORK HAND IN

  • HAND WITH THE WHITE HOUSE,

  • ORCHESTRATE THE TRIAL WITH WHAT

  • THE WHITE HOUSE WANTS, TAKING

  • THE OATH OF OFFICE.

  • >> DURING THE IMPEACHMENT

  • INQUIRY REPUBLICANS WERE

  • COMPLAINING THE REPUBLICANS

  • WEREN'T THERE AND IT WILL MOVE

  • TO THE SENATE AND MITCH

  • MCCONNELL WORKING HAND-IN-HAND

  • WITH THE WHITE HOUSE SO THE

  • DEMOCRATS HAVE A POINT

  • COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME

  • THING, UNFAIR PROCESS?

  • >> I DON'T THINK SO AND I WONDER

  • WHERE SENATOR MURKOWSKI WAS WHEN

  • ADAM SCHIPPERS CONDUCTING

  • PROCEEDINGS IN SECRET AND WHERE

  • ARE HER CALLS FOR HIM TO RELEASE

  • THE FINAL TRANSCRIPT OF THE

  • INSPECTOR GENERAL OF THE

  • INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY WHICH

  • REPORTEDLY CONTAINS THINGS

  • FAVORABLE TO THE PRESIDENT AND

  • UNFAVORABLE TO THE SO-CALLED

  • WHISTLEBLOWER.

  • DEMOCRATS ARE CRYING FOUL WHEN

  • THEIR OWN PROCESS IS SHOCKINGLY

  • BEREFT OF DUE PROCESS, THE

  • PRESIDENT HAD NO PRESENCE IN

  • INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE HEARINGS,

  • NO REPRESENTATION BY A LAWYER.

  • THERE WAS ALMOST NO

  • CROSS-EXAMINATION, REPUBLICANS

  • WERE NOT ALLOWED TO CALL THE

  • WITNESSES THEY THOUGHT MIGHT BE

  • RELEVANT TO THE PROCESS SO IT

  • DOES SEEM VERY HYPOCRITICAL AT

  • THIS POINT TO ME FOR THE

  • DEMOCRATS TO BE CRYING ABOUT

  • FAIRNESS.

  • >> INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT LISA

  • MURKOWSKI SAYS BECAUSE OFTEN

  • TIMES WHEN THERE'S A SLIGHT

  • FEELING THERE COULD BE A LITTLE

  • BIT OF A BREAK WITH THE PARTY IT

  • IS OFTEN SUSAN COLLINS OR LISA

  • MURKOWSKI LEADING THE CHARGE,

  • LET'S SWITCH GEARS ENTIRELY,

  • PETE BUTTIGIEG RUNNING FOR

  • PRESIDENT SAYING THERE SHOULD BE

  • NO JAIL TIME FOR DRUG POSSESSION

  • INCLUDING METH AND COCAINE AND

  • IMMIGRATION PLAN THAT WOULD

  • DECRIMINALIZE DEPORTATIONS, A

  • LOT OF THINGS THAT WOULD FALL

  • UNDER DEPORTATION.

  • CERTAINLY MODERATE THOUSAND 20

  • RAISE, PETE BUTTIGIEG AND THE

  • DEMS?

  • >> I HOPE NOT.

  • I AM FOR LAW AND ORDER.

  • I'M A FORMER PROSECUTOR.

  • I HAVE SEEN THE RAVAGES OF METH

  • AND COCAINE THEY LEAVE ON

  • COMMUNITIES OF VIOLENCE THAT

  • RISES WHEN PEOPLE BECOME

  • ADDICTED TO THESE SUBSTANCES AND

  • ARE DESPERATE TO GET THEM NO

  • MATTER WHAT IT TAKES,

  • BURGLARIES, ASSAULTS, MURDERERS.

  • I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYONE WHO

  • SAYS DECRIMINALIZING DRUGS WILL

  • LEAD TO A DECREASE IN CRIME.

  • I FEEL LIKE THE OPPOSITE WILL

  • HAPPEN.

  • CARLEY: LET'S LISTEN TO PETE

  • BUTTIGIEG LAYING ON HIS PLAN.

  • >> INCARCERATION SHOULD NOT BE A

  • RESPONSE TO DRUG POSITION.

  • >> METH OR COKE OR ANY DRUGS,

  • INCARCERATION.

  • >> THIS IS A BIG DEAL BECAUSE

  • HE'S CONSIDERED ONE OF THE

  • MODERATE CANDIDATES AND YOU LOOK

  • AT SAN FRANCISCO THAT HAVE

  • DECRIMINALIZED APPS POSSESSION

  • AND THINGS LIKE THAT YOU HAVE TO

  • WONDER WHY PETE BUTTIGIEG WOULD

  • THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA WHEN

  • WE SEE CITIES LIKE SAN FRANCISCO

  • AND THE HOMELESS CRISIS AND THE

  • DRUG ISSUE TAKING PLACE OVER

  • THERE.

  • >> IF YOU WANT TO EQUATE IT TO

  • CHILD EXPLOITATION OR CHILD

  • PORNOGRAPHY DO WE WANT TO

  • DECRIMINALIZE POSSESSION OF

  • THAT?

  • POSSESSING THESE SUBSTANCES IS

  • NO DIFFERENT THAN POSSESSING

  • CHILD PORNOGRAPHY, YOU ARE

  • CREATING THE DRUG TRADE.
