1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,600 Speaker 1: Well, last night in the wee hours of the morning. 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: In fact, the Senate did a voice vote unanimous. They're 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: going to fund the Department of Homeland Security, but they 4 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: are carving out additional funding for ICE and for the 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 1: border patrol that did not make it through this vote. 6 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: That partial funding is going to be set aside and 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 1: Republicans will pass it eventually via reconciliation. So Democrats are 8 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: acting like they won something, did they. Well, i'll unpack 9 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: it for you here spoiler alert. No, they really didn't 10 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: unless you define win by causing you pain, suffering, and misery, 11 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: because they think that helps them in November, and it might, 12 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: and they did do just that. Okay, here's chomping last 13 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: night at like two am. 14 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 2: He's in it, burning the midnight oil, just passing funding 15 00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: for most of the Department of Homeland Security. For detail 16 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: on what this all means, let's turn to our expert 17 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: Fox News Cheap congressional correspondent, Chad Program joins us from 18 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 2: Capital from the Capital, Chad, we just got it passed, right. 19 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 3: Well, they just passed this through the Senate. This is 20 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 3: something that they have been working on for hours and 21 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 3: hours and hours, and they did it without even a 22 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 3: formal role called vote. They did it with just a 23 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: skeleton crew inside the chamber here, and this might be 24 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 3: the beginning of breaking this impass. With the funding for 25 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 3: the Department of Homeland Security that has gone on now 26 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 3: for forty one hours, two hours, forty one days, two hours, 27 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 3: in about thirty seven minutes, it's really remarkable here that 28 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 3: this is the first genuine movement. This funds everything at 29 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: the Department of Homeland Security except funding for ice and 30 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 3: also a little bit of moneys and. 31 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: A little bit of money for the border patrol. All right, Later, 32 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: Chad actually rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and 33 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: got on camera this morning on Talks and Friends, engaged 34 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: some more details because you see, this isn't really done. 35 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: The House now has to vote on this. Oh, you 36 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: may be saying, wait a second, I thought the House 37 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: already approved this appropriation and the Senator, well yeah, but 38 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: see now the Senate has changed it a little bit 39 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: by carving out these little sections of ice and border 40 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: patrol additional supplemental funding. I'll explain in a sec So 41 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: now the House has to vote. It should go through. 42 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: We shall see. But here's Chad giving you more details. Listen, carefully. 43 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 4: Now, they won last night, and typically no one wins 44 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 4: government chuckdowns Democrats. They did not get some of the 45 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 4: ICE reforms that they asked for. Republicans did not get 46 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 4: full of DHS funding in this so you know Ice 47 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 4: is left out and border patrol is as well. Now 48 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 4: John Soon, of the Senate Majority leader, he said that 49 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 4: this was not about getting people necessarily to support the bill. 50 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 4: His charge last night was really to make sure that 51 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 4: there weren't objections when they moved this on the Senate 52 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 4: floor about two twelve this morning. There are only so 53 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,839 Speaker 4: many off ramps in Congress, and lawmakers saw this one 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 4: coming down the highway did not want to miss that one. 55 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 4: This is why the Senate has left town. This is 56 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 4: a jam job for the House of Representatives. Either the 57 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 4: House will take this or leave this. This has not 58 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 4: been pre baked with the House of Representatives. And we 59 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 4: also don't know the disposition of the President of the 60 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 4: United States. As I always say, this is about the math. 61 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 4: This will take a robust combination of Democrats and Republicans 62 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: to pass this bill. And keep in mind that yesterday 63 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 4: there were lots of Republicans on the record saying that 64 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 4: they wanted to fully fund DHS. They were not for this. 65 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 4: So how this is sold to the House today, we 66 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 4: just don't know. 67 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: We don't know, all right, So let me help you 68 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: out here. And again, I just want to be clear. 69 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: ICE is funded through twenty eight. Border Patrol is funded 70 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: through twenty eight. Everybody knows that, or through twenty seven. 71 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: Excuse me, everybody knows that, all right. Now. This appropriations 72 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: bill had supplemental funding going to those agencies, and it 73 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: passed the House, and Democrats were fused to pass the 74 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: entire Department of Homeland Security funding including TSA and the 75 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: Coast Guard and all those other things, because they were 76 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: demanding changes to how ICE did their job. Right, They 77 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: and everybody who's been down this road with us on 78 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: this program over the last several weeks knows the two 79 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: biggest sticking points. I mean, because some of the things 80 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: they were asking for, like body cameras on ICE agents 81 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: like DHS was totally we're on board with that. Give 82 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: us as many body cans as you want, because we 83 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: know we're in the right. Well, we'll put the body 84 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: cameras on immediately. We don't even need to debate this, right, 85 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: So they got a lot of those things, and if 86 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: you want to talk about some sort of pyrrhic sort 87 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: of political appearance victory, that Democrats could go back to 88 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: their screaming minions in the streets and say look what 89 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: we got. They could theoretically claim a scalp because Christy Nome, 90 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security, has been reassigned to a different job. 91 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: Mark Wayne Mullen has now replaced her. I mean, we've 92 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: got a brand new Secretary of Homeland Security from when 93 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: all of this started with their defunding, And of course 94 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: Tom Holman is now in charge. And Tom Holman has 95 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: already announced a reduction of ICE and CBP presence in Minneapolis. 96 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: So if Democrats wanted to claim victory about this with 97 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: just those things, they could have, but they refused to. 98 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: In fact, at the beginning of this week, Republicans made 99 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: a proposal, and the proposal was exactly what passed last night. 100 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: But Democrats refused this proposal earlier in the week Monday night, 101 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: they said, no, we demand that the masks come off 102 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: ICE agents. Right that anyone who's been watching the show 103 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 1: for the last several weeks, you know that the two 104 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: biggest demands were no masks on ICE, and any person 105 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 1: illegally in the country detained and moved toward departation by 106 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: ICE must have a judicial warrant. Those have been the 107 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: two biggest sticking points. Those have been the two big demands. 108 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: Those of the things that Democrats were willing to die 109 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: on the hill for because of course they prioritize illegal 110 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:10,239 Speaker 1: immigrants before they prioritized the citizens of this country. This week, 111 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: earlier in the week, that's what they demanded. Nope, we 112 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: want those judicial warrants and we want the masks off. Well, 113 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: they didn't get it. They basically passed exactly what Monday 114 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: night had. So they spent all week saying, no, we're 115 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: not gonna find anything until you get those mass off 116 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: ICE agents and you get a judicial warrant for deportations. 117 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: They didn't get it. So how did this happen yesterday? Well, 118 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: you got to go in the wayback machine one more day. 119 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: Yesterday afternoon, the President made the final gambit on the chessboard. 120 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: Here's how CNN reported it. 121 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 5: Well, break it news that our politics lee. President Trump 122 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 5: has just posted that he's ordered the Department of Homeland 123 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 5: Security to quote immediately pay our TSA agents. Although it's 124 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 5: not entirely clear how that will work or what authority 125 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 5: he's utilizing for that order. I want to get straight 126 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 5: to CNS. 127 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: Oh, you cute little teleprompter reader with a good head 128 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: of hair and maybe a journalism degree. I'm sorry you 129 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: don't understand these things, but you just haven't been watching 130 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: what's the word I'm looking for the news. Over the 131 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: past several years, there have been many times where President 132 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: Trump has been frustrated with Congress to fund certain things 133 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: that need to be done. In fact, just a few 134 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: months ago, when the Democrats shut down the entire government 135 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: because they wanted reforms to healthcare, which they never got. 136 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: During that shutdown, the President demanded that the Pentagon pay 137 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: our troops. How was he going to do that without 138 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: any money? While he moved money from other programs at 139 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: the Pentagon suspended those programs, and they shifted the dollars 140 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: over to pay the troops. In the first term, when 141 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: he wanted the wall built on the southern border and 142 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosian Democrats refused to fund it, he shifted funds 143 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: from the Pentagon in national Defense instead of doing it 144 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: through the Department of Homeland Security, and he claimed that 145 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: the building of the wall was national defense. Didn't need 146 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: Congress because the already money was already there, and as 147 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: commander in chief, he demanded that it be done, and 148 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: he did it. So anyone who's actually been watching the 149 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,119 Speaker 1: news for the last well, you know, couple of years 150 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: or months for that matter, my friend knows exactly the answer. 151 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 1: He said, enough with all of this, we've got easter 152 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: coming up. People are going to be traveling, Suspend some 153 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: programs in the Department of Homeland Security, move those cash 154 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: amounts over to the payroll, and pay TSA. 155 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 6: But that's right. 156 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: He's going to go to the White House correspondent, and 157 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure that she's smart enough to know this. 158 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 5: As Kristen Holmes, the North ont of the White House, Kristin, 159 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 5: I know this is like just happening. We're trying to 160 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 5: figure lots of things out here. What do we actually 161 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 5: know right now? 162 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: Well, we're asking all the same questions that you are. 163 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: So if you want to go say so. She doesn't 164 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: know either the fact, that's exactly what the President did. 165 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: He said, screw you Congress, screw you Thoon, screw you Schumer. 166 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: I want to pay TSA. So we're going to pay them, 167 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: we'll move the money along and then lo and behold. 168 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: Seven eight nine hours later, Schumer comes in and says, yeah, okay, fine, 169 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: we'll go ahead and take the deal you offered us 170 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: on Monday. Why because the Democrats then realize that they 171 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: could no longer inflict pain on you because President Trump 172 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: was relieving the pain by paying TSA. And if they 173 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: can't make your life miserable, what's the point. Because that's 174 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: their political strategy. You must view everything going on in Washington, 175 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: DC right now through a very important lens, the midterm 176 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: elections in November. Democrats want control of the House and 177 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: maybe even the Senate, and they are trying to create chaos. 178 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: They are trying to create misery. They are trying to 179 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: harm the economy because if you were angry, if you 180 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: are miserable, and you think that your life is worse, 181 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: that benefits them. Understand that you having a crappy twenty 182 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: twenty six is good for Democrats, So they're gonna do 183 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: everything they can to make you have a crappy twenty 184 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: twenty six. Here's Chuck Schumer claiming victory of sorts, which 185 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: is odd because the two things they wanted they didn't 186 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: get But here's Schumer. 187 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 7: In the wake of the murders of renee Good and 188 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 7: Alex Pretty, Senate Democrats were clear, no blank check for 189 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 7: a lawless ice and border patrol. This long over due 190 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 7: agreement funds TSA, the Coastguard, FEMA, SISA, strengthened security at 191 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 7: the border in the ports of entry, and keeps Americans safe. 192 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 7: This could have been accomplished weeks ago if Republics hadn't 193 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 7: stood in the way. 194 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: That's not true, because weeks ago they were demanding judicial 195 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,239 Speaker 1: warrants for detentions of illegal immigrants and deportations of illegal immerants, 196 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: and they were demanding ICE to remove their mass. They 197 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't budge. He's lying. Go back and check the record. 198 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: This could not have happened weeks ago. They were still 199 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: going to stay on those issues. Sorry, it's just a lie. 200 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: Fact check me. Go ahead, Chuck. 201 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 7: Democrats held firm in our opposition that Donald Trump's rogue 202 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 7: and deadly militia should not get more funding without serious reforms, 203 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 7: and we will continue to fight for those reforms. 204 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: Wait, that would have been the moment where he could 205 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: have said, we demanded that that rogue militia He's calling 206 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: an agency that he voted to create a rogue militia. 207 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: What a despicable jerk. He just said, we would not 208 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: allow that rogue militia to go without reforms. And then 209 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: that would have been a great moment for him to say, 210 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: and we got those reforms. But he didn't say that, 211 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: did he He didn't say because he didn't get any reforms. 212 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: What did he get? No, he didn't get anything. So 213 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: this is an interesting victory lap and it's really interesting 214 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: to see how the media is covering this, suggesting that 215 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: Republicans in some way caved. 216 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 7: The militia should not get more funding without serious reforms. 217 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: Did you get up? 218 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 7: And we will continue to fight those reforms. 219 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: They're going to continue to fight. 220 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 7: I'm very proud of our Democratic Caucus. 221 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, you should be super proud. 222 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 7: Okay. 223 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: And then in the middle of the night, right after 224 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: they did their little voice vote and they moved on, 225 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: the senatet ajourned and they left, they went home for Easter. 226 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: Save Act still on the table, no action on the 227 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: Save America Act. They're just going to leave. They're just 228 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: going to go. Here's John Thune. Thune, Reagan National Airport 229 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: majority leader, escorted right after he got through TSA fascinating, 230 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 1: isn't it. So the Save America Act sits there, continuing 231 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: to wait for a vote, not going to happen, and 232 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 1: now you bounce it back to the House. So now 233 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: Mike Johnson, who's been sitting there waiting for the Senate 234 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: to do something and just pass, now he's got to 235 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: get his caucus back. He's got to get all the 236 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: congressmen back to vote on this stupid thing because they've 237 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: made this little exception, this little exception on continued supplemental 238 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: ICE funding. Again, I want to repeat, ICE is funded. 239 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: This was additional money. Okay, no one in ICE has 240 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: missed a paycheck throughout this entire thing. But now because 241 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: of this fig leaf show that Chuck Schumer demanded, Now 242 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: Johnson's got to get the House back. And guess what, 243 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: Speaker Johnson, he's rightly kind of pissed about this. 244 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 6: He had all remembers theaters vetterics this morning about say, 245 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 6: it's infuriating that Democrats are willing to inflict paint on 246 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 6: the American people simply so they can defund the agency 247 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 6: that is responsible. 248 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: Literally, that's right, it is infuriating, and that's exactly what 249 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: Democrats are willing to do because they want you to 250 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: feel pain. Tom Emmer also kind of pissed about this. 251 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 8: Let's start out with our Seker is very unhappy. I'm 252 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 8: not happy our whole leadership group. What the Senate did 253 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 8: was frankly not right. We are going to make sure 254 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 8: that border is funding. This is about making sure that 255 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 8: President Trump's number one part promise was that the border 256 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 8: was going to be secure. He's accomplished, with Republican leadership, 257 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 8: incredible things with the southern border. It has never been 258 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 8: as tight as it is right now. But we are 259 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 8: not going to allow these radical anarchist Marxist socialist Democrats 260 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 8: to literally stop or create an open border situation again 261 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 8: like we experienced under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. And 262 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 8: we're going to make sure that we continue to deport criminal, 263 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 8: illegal aliens. This is what Americans want. 264 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: If there's a no vote in the House today, does 265 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: that mean that the Senate has to come back to 266 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: do it all over again. 267 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 8: The House will have a solution. That's as much as 268 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 8: I can tell you. There'll be more on that very shortly. 269 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 8: I think the leadership team with the Speaker has been 270 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 8: working through this. Again, they did this at three in 271 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 8: the morning, Stewart, instead of doing it in the light 272 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 8: of day when all of American can watch what's going on. 273 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 8: They did this procedural move early in the morning. By 274 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 8: the way, it sets dangerous precedents going forward. If you 275 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 8: could take appropriations bills and start to take out pieces 276 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 8: that you don't like, this will never end. So we're 277 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 8: working through it in the House. We will have a 278 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 8: solution and the Speaker will announce it, hopefully within the 279 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 8: next hour or so. 280 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: That's a great point, and I just want to and yes, 281 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: of course they're pissed. They're pissed because they want to 282 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: go home too, just like John Thune did it three 283 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: in the morning. They are pissed, and they have every 284 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: right to be pieced because they did their job. They've 285 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: got a more neuro majority than Fune does, and they 286 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: did their job, and they passed the appropriations and they 287 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: send it over. And Johnson has been fighting, and Johnson 288 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: has been leading and not so much. I'm sorry, you know, 289 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: I want to help him, but he didn't want to 290 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: nuke the filibuster because it would be a horrible precedent. 291 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: You don't want to do that. President, No, no, no, 292 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna nuke the philibuster. You can't do that. But 293 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: he's okay allowing for this precedent. I mean, where does 294 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: it end. So now the House is going to pass 295 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: in appropriations, but they're gonna send it over and the 296 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: Democrats will just sit there like whiny little babies and 297 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: pick and choose what parts of it they're willing to 298 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: say yes to. And then the other ones got, oh no, 299 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: you got to cut that out, carve it, and then 300 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: said you can't run a government like this. And let 301 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: me be clear, what Chuck Schumer wants is the good 302 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: old days where just he and the President and Nancy 303 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: Pelosi or whoever, five powerbrokers would get into a back 304 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: room and they would create this giant omnibus package and 305 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: it would be at the last second before a shutdown, 306 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: and then they would throw and it would be, you know, 307 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: six thousand pages long, and they would jam it out 308 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: there and it was full of garbage, and everyone had 309 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: to vote on it. Doesn't matter what they know. You 310 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: want to read it? Oh hell no, just vote on 311 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: it otherwise we're gonna have a shutdown. We made an agreement. 312 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: Leadership made an agreement, so we need the votes now. 313 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: That's how it's been done for the last like fifteen years. 314 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 1: Johnson finally gets in there. He goes, No, we're going 315 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 1: to do an appropriations for this part of the budget. 316 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna do an appropriations for this department. We're gonna 317 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: do an appropriations for this department. It's regular order. We're 318 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: going to do it department by department and get it done. 319 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: And they hate that, and that's where we are and 320 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: the House. They do deserve to be pissed off. But 321 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: just understand something. Schumer and the Democrats and Hakim Jeffres 322 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: they put you through all of this garbage and all 323 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: of this crap and they didn't win anything. And that's 324 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: the other reason why he's pissed, because it's garbage what 325 00:17:54,200 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: they just got. You really want to know and again, 326 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: fact check all of this, you guys, I know you're 327 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: getting the news differently from other places, even people who 328 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: are conservative who were way angrier at about this and saying, oh, 329 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 1: we caved and Schumer won. Didn't win a damn thing. 330 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: But don't believe me. Talk to the guy who used 331 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 1: to be governor of New Hampshire and now he's in 332 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: charge of the organization that represents the airlines. All right, 333 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: they have been hit very hard by all of this. 334 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: He was on Fox and Friends this morning and he 335 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: was asked, okay, so you got TSA funded. How did 336 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: this happen? Was this because Schumer won something? All right? 337 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: Talk to mister Sununu. He'll tell you your reaction to the 338 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: breaking news overnight. 339 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 9: Let's go Thank you, presis I mean absolutely this is. 340 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 9: This has been five weeks of torture for these poor 341 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 9: folks that are coming to work, not getting paid, still 342 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 9: making sure all the pressure that they have to bear 343 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 9: when you have literally tens of thousands of people waiting 344 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 9: to get through your security, but they can't rush them through. 345 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 9: They take their time with each one, making knowing how 346 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 9: important that job is. So the President stood up. Congress 347 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 9: couldn't get the job done. He said, I'm going to 348 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 9: just do this thing we gave you. He gave it 349 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 9: a process, He made sure that the Congression process had 350 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 9: its option to move forward. They just couldn't get it done, 351 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 9: and he said enough is enough. And so late last 352 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 9: night you saw the Senate come back and actually pass something. 353 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 9: The Democrats didn't get any of their policy extras that 354 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 9: they wanted in there. They passed so they could fund TSA. 355 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 9: Hopefully the House will do the same today. I haven't 356 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 9: seen the President's executive order just yet, but none of 357 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 9: that would have happened if the President hadn't. 358 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 7: That was the catalyst for this. 359 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: Undoubtedly, there you go. That's the bottom line here. Democrats 360 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: shut down this whole department, the Department of Homeland Security 361 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 1: that includes TSA, the Coast Guard, the Border Patrol, everything. 362 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: They shut it all down. They demanded the defund ICE, 363 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: which they couldn't do because ICE was already funded from 364 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: the Reconcilia package last year, so that was never going 365 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: to happen. And then they demanded that ICE no longer 366 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: wear masks, and they you get a judicial warrant for 367 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: every single detainee that was apprehended and then or every 368 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: illegal immigrant that was detained and sent for deportation. They 369 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: did not defund ICE, They did not get ICE to 370 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: remove their masks, and they did not get the judicial warrants. 371 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: What they did was they caused misery. They caused misery 372 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: for all of you. And when President Trump yesterday said 373 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 1: enough with this, I'm doing an executive order. We're gonna 374 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: pay TSA no more misery. The Democrats said, well, game's up. 375 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 1: We can't make Americans lives miserable anymore, so let's just 376 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: go ahead past this thing. We'll go home for Easter 377 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: and we'll come back and find something else to make 378 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: Americans lives miserable again. And if you're buying into this, well, 379 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,479 Speaker 1: they didn't get the additional funding for ice some border patrol, 380 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 1: every single penny. In fact, probably more funding for ice 381 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 1: some border patrol that got carved out last night in 382 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: this ridiculous, unprecedented maneuver to give Chuck Schumer some fig 383 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: ley for his next fundraising memo. Every single one of 384 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: those dollars will be in the next reconciliation bill that 385 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: only needs fifty votes in the Senate. So none of 386 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: it matters except Democrats somehow have now communicated to their 387 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: base that they fight, and you know what, they're right, 388 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: They do fight, They fight, and they make your life 389 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: miserable and they think that will help them in November. 390 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: And you know what would be awesome, You know, it 391 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: would be terrific if Republicans fought back and said everything 392 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: that I'm telling you right now. But by the way, 393 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: this just in and I'm just seeing the news as 394 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: it develops. The House has rejected this, this pile of 395 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: garbage that the Senate has laid at their feet, and 396 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: they've said no, they're not going forward with it. It 397 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: looks as though they are stand by this from a 398 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: House staffer, they're rejecting the Senate bill. They're going to 399 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: do a clean sixty day cr continuing resolution that fully 400 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: funds all of the Department of Homeland Security, including Ice 401 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 1: and border patrol. Wasn't that hard to convince the leadership 402 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: team on this. Johnson, Scalise, and Emmer deserve a lot 403 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: of credit that from a source on Capitol Hill. So 404 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: watch that space. The story is not over, and maybe 405 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: all those senators that just got ushered through the airport's 406 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 1: security last night at three in the morning will get 407 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: ushered right back on in their home states and come 408 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,120 Speaker 1: back and finish the job. So now here we are, 409 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: the Senate has left town with that package that I 410 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: told you is a horrible precedent and doesn't give the 411 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: Democrats anything they want, but now forces the House to 412 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: come back and vote on this thing that you know 413 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: they should have never had to vote for in the 414 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: first place, and the House is pissed off about that too. 415 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: So now here comes the Senate Majority Leader John Foon 416 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: as he's had his flight home and he's, you know, 417 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 1: tan rested and ready sitting in his recliner next to 418 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: his fireplace there in South Dakota, and he decided to 419 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: take to the X platform to communicate to everybody exactly 420 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: how great this turd sandwich is. Let's summarize where we 421 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: are after a forty plus day Democrat shut down of 422 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: the Department of Homeland Security Number one, ICE and CBP 423 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: are funded thanks to the working families tax cuts and 424 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: the foresight of President Trump and public in Congress. When 425 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: I told you that ICE and CBP were already funded 426 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: through the Reconciliation bill. After holding DHS in the American 427 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: people hostage for over forty days, DEM's got zero restrictions 428 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: that would prevent ICE and CBP agents from doing their 429 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 1: job safely. That's true. Due to dem obstruction of the 430 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: appropriations process, ICE and CBP will get even more funding 431 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: through budget reconciliation. In other words, Hey, Mike Johnson, do 432 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: the hard work and heavy lifting for me, please. I 433 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: got to get back home. Fine, Dems have once again 434 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: established themselves as the open borders, defund the police party 435 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: heading into an election, and five DEM leadership has proven 436 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: once again they can't be trusted to make a deal, 437 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: which begs the question, if you're a DEM senator or 438 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: one of their left wing supporters, what is this really 439 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: all about. Well, I mean that's true, except for the 440 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: fact that he could have stayed in town, pushed back, 441 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: made that case on the floor of the Senate, actually 442 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: done the job and made the Democrats pay the price 443 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 1: in real time. But Easter's coming after all. Well, again, 444 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: this was all based on the supposition that Johnson and 445 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: House leadership would just fall in line and bring the 446 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: votes to bail john Thune out. Well, as I told 447 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: you a little earlier, my reporting and my sources texted 448 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: me during the show saying it ain't gonna happen, and 449 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 1: that seems to be exactly the case. Just about to 450 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: twenty minutes ago, on a phone call with journalists, Speaker 451 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: Johnson said, we cannot set a precedent of not funding 452 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: some agencies. When pushed by minority, they shoot the hostage 453 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: and get a ransom, and we cannot allow that, nor 454 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: will they allow that, and apparently majority with Tom Emmer 455 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 1: says that he was on a call with President Trump 456 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: and President Trump is on board with Speaker Johnson's plan. 457 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: That's according to a source familiar with the situation. Lauren Bobert, 458 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: by the way, also tweeted public service announcement to Senate schedulers, 459 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 1: you may want to book a return flight for your boss. 460 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: Our work here isn't finished. In other words, as my 461 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: source told me, and as I told you during the 462 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: show live as I received that information, the House says, 463 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: screw you, Senate. We did the heavy lifting, we did 464 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: the hard work, and now you want us to eat 465 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: your turn sandwich. No, we're not what because understand something. 466 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: If they go ahead with this, that means the next 467 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: appropriations bill the Democrats don't like, they'll do the exact 468 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: same thing and again and again and again. This is 469 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: the third time they've tried to shut down the government 470 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: in less than a year. So Speaker Johnson says, Nope, 471 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: not going to do it. We did the appropriations bill, 472 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: You've had the appropriations bill. You pass the appropriations bill. 473 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,120 Speaker 1: You really want to go home for Easter, you really 474 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: want to keep the government funded. Here, we'll give you 475 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: a continuing resolution to just keep everything funded as it is, 476 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: and that's it, that's all we give you. So the 477 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: House will pass that, and the Senate. Yes, we'll be 478 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,120 Speaker 1: returning to Washington, d C. And well, stay tuned. It'll 479 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: be a very interesting weekend and lord knows, we'll talk 480 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: about it on Monday right here on your favorite news 481 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: political analysis
