he's the first white house official to testify here. we have heard from defense department officials. this is the first time this has actually reached the white house. and it's almost like the layers of an onion getting peeled back. a few days ago we had the president implicated for the first time. obviously the initial call memo. a few weeks ago. for the first time a witness pointed directly at the president being involved. so it will be significant that a white house staffer is going to speak up here. >> so listen, he listened directly to the july 25 phone call between the president and the president of ukraine. taylor said in opening statement that he told him the call could have been better. will we learn more than what's in the transcript? >> it's hard too tell. at least we'll have context. what we're really witnessing taking place in the white house and the executive branch is a war between donald trumps inner circle and the professionals on the outer circle. they're working for the same man in many respects but have different app

we can't count on the white house. we can't count on the courts. they want to delay it and we need to look forward, look at what evidence we have, make the best effort, make the case and have a vote on the articles of impeachment. >> joining me now from capitol hill is garrett haake. what changes? you have coined a phrase that i've been using, the great letter writing campaign of 2019, where he writes letters to each other telling them what they think of the other one and what they are prepared to cooperate with or not. what changes, what has happened, where are we in this whole process? >> reporter: the republican strategy is coming into clear focus. they will stonewall their because through this following the lead of the administration to provide for no additional testimony, no further handover the documents. they essentially say that this entire exercise is invalid so they won't cooperate. with i think one interesting exception. we've heard republicans say time and time again that they want to see the transcript of kurt volker's testimony from l

but what are you picking up from your white house sources? >> i'm really picking up that they're all over the place and they're not on the same page and there's a lot of finger-pointing. but it's really, you know, it's more disjointed than ever. you saw yesterday president trump coming on and saying we actually can't hire trey gowdy for the job that we just announced we were hiring for as outside counsel because of lobbying rules he can't start till january. this is a job they wanted him on helping in an impeachment inquiry that they expect to be wrapped up by december. that there's internal finger-pointing about why they got themselves in that mess in the first place and whose fault it was. no one knows who's in charge, people don't know what they're supposed to be doing. but there is also sort of a sense that overall a confidence that president trump is going to barrel on in his re-election campaign and that confidence and the weakness of the democratic field that they think that overall he is going to win a second term. >> all right. well,
