CONTACT WITH 2020 CANDIDATES IN

THE COURSE OF WORKING WITH THE

GOVERNMENT THERE.

THE ANNOUNCEMENT COMING AS

FORMER VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN

FOR THE FIRST TIME CALLED FOR

PRESIDENT TRUMP'S IMPEACHMENT.

>> DONALD TRUMP WAS VIOLATED

HIS OATH OF OFFICE, BETRAYED

THIS NATION AND COMMITTED

IMPEACHABLE ACTS.

TO PRESERVE OUR CONSTITUTION,

OUR DEMOCRACY, OUR BASIC

INTEGRITY, HE SHOULD BE

IMPEACHED.

>> Sandra: GRIFF JENKINS IS

LIVE FROM WASHINGTON WITH THE

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS THERE.

SINCE HOUSE DEMOCRATS LAUNCHED

THE IMPEACHMENT VEHICLE.

THE FORMER VICE PRESIDENT WHO

REFRAINED FROM CALLING FOR THE

PRESIDENT'S IMPEACHMENT IS

CHANGING HIS TUNE AND WARNING

THE PRESIDENT WHO HE PICKS A

FIGHT WITH.

>> WITH HIS WORDS AND HIS

ACTIONS PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS

INDICTED HIMSELF BY OBSTRUCTING

JUSTICE, REFUSING TO COMPLY

WITH THE CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY.

HE PICKED A FIGHT WITH THE

WRONG GUY.

>> THE PRESIDENT WOULD

COOPERATE IF THERE WAS A FULL

VOTE AND FAIR CONDITIONS WAS

QUICK TO RESPOND TO BIDEN.

>> President Trump: BIDEN IS

DROPPING LIKE ROCK.

I DON'T THINK HE IS GOING TO

MAKE IT.

I DIDN'T THINK HE WAS GOING TO

MAKE IT FOR A LONG TIME.

THIS IS ONE WAY TO DO IT.

HE SEES WHAT'S HAPPENING TO

HIM, I GUESS HE IS NO LONGER

THE FRONTRUNNER.

HE HAS BEEN HIT AND CAUGHT

RED-HANDED.

>> THIS AS THE ATTORNEYS FOR

THE FIRST WHISTLEBLOWER ARE

ISSUING A STATEMENT TO CLARIFY

MISCHARACTERIZATIONS WHAT THEY

SAY IS ALLEGED POLITICAL BIAS.

OUR CLIENT HAS NEVER WORKED FOR

OR ADVISED A POLITICAL CAMPAIGN

OR PARTY AND SPENT THEIR ENTIRE

CAREER IN POSITIONS IN THE

EXECUTIVE BRANCH AND IN THESE

POSITIONS ARE CLIENT HAS COME

INTO CONTACT WITH PRESIDENTIAL

CANDIDATES IN THEIR ROLES AS

ELECTED OFFICIALS, NOT

CANDIDATES.

THE NEXT STEP TO WATCH FOR IN

THIS INQUIRE RE IS MARIE

YOVANOVITCH EXPECTED TO TESTIFY

TOMORROW.

WE COULD SEE THE STATE

DEPARTMENT TRY TO STOP HER.
