| 0:00.0 | All right, thank you, Anderson. I am Chris Cuomo and welcome to Primetime. |
| 0:03.6 | The articles of impeachment are coming tomorrow we are told. We're going to check in with a |
| 0:08.5 | player on what to expect. And two years worth of deep-state digs from this president were found |
| 0:15.6 | by his own DOJ to be wrong. And if he doesn't believe it, he can ask his daughter. Turns out she |
| 0:23.1 | is reportedly friends with the foreign former Intel agent who compiled the dossier and has been |
| 0:29.6 | demonized by her dead end. You cannot make this stuff up. So what do you say? Let's get after it. |
| 0:41.7 | Make no mistake. What the president has been telling you about the Russia probe being a hoax |

| 1:53.4 | I rely on most about these matters are in fact in the news tonight. Andrew McCabe, former Deputy |
| 1:59.6 | Director of the FBI and former FBI General Counsel Jim Baker. Gentlemen, good to have you as always. |
| 2:07.1 | Good to be here, Chris. Andrew, what does it mean to you? You know, it means a lot, Chris. It's |
