0:00.0	All right, thank you, Anderson. I am Chris Cuomo and welcome to Prime Time.
0:03.4	Look who's finally back. Congress, impeachment drums beating once again time to test a judiciary
0:10.0	member about this big vote this week. What about waiting on the people to send a signal? What about
0:15.9	waiting on Speaker Pelosi? You hear what she said today about the new push? And did President
0:21.6	Trump put one of our top spies at risk with loose lips? Did his tweets and talk about what was going

1:40.5	Good to see you, Congressman. Welcome back. Thank you, Chris. Good to be with you.
1:43.6	So let's test this first. What is this vote? We expected somewhere maybe around Thursday. Why does
1:50.0	it matter? It matters because it formally sets up a House judiciary inquiry into impeachment of
1:56.6	Donald J. Trump. And it sets out the same parameters as were existent under the Republican team that
2:02.9	had the Clinton impeachment and the Democratic team when the Dixon impeachment came up.
2:08.1	All right. Same rules. So two reasons not to do it. Just to test the idea. First is,
