JUAN WILLAIMS (CO-HOST): So, Jesse, when President Trump was impeached the first time, it was on the basis of putting pressure on the Ukrainian president to get negative information on Biden. And I think we're just running in a circle here, back to that incident. What do you make of this?
JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): I think I speak for everybody on the show when I say this: Rudy Giuliani is a national treasure. Don't disagree, I speak for everyone on the show when I say this. The guy took on the mob, he took on crime, Al Qaeda, counselor to the president, and now Democratic prosecutors want to lock up a 76-year-old icon for a lobbying technicality, Juan? Because he advised the president that he should fire a rotten ambassador? You don't have to register to lobby for that.
...
You're not disturbed by the pattern that two Trump lawyers have their homes raided? The campaign manager has his home raided, another confidant had his home raided? You're not disturbed by that pattern? The fact that Democrat prosecutors are waging political warfare for the benefit of the Democratic Party? Just to purge Trump, because he challenged the system? I mean, that should scare everybody, Juan.
