1
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirks Show starts now.

2
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 2: Does he have the votes?

3
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: I think so.

4
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, Thomas Massey is indicated he's not going

5
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 3: to support Mike. But Mike's a good man, a man

6
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 3: of character, a man of integrity. I said this when

7
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 3: I seconded his nomination in front of the conference. I said,

8
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 3: you know, hard work doesn't guarantee success, but it sure

9
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 3: improves your chances. And Mike Johnson has worked his tail

10
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 3: off as our speaker. I hope he gets re elected today.

11
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,639
Speaker 3: I think he will. And the second thing, I think

12
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 3: the main reason here is is look on November fifty,

13
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 3: American people said secure the border, bring down prices, bring

14
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: down crime, and stop the weaponization of government against we

15
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 3: the people. The best way to get that done is

16
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 3: to come together today, unite behind Speaker Johnson, and start

17
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 3: working with President Trump to accomplish what the people told

18
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 3: us to do.

19
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: So I hope that's what.

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 3: Happens today, and I think I think that is. I

21
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 3: think it will.

22
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 4: Ninety nine percent of the members that I've been speaking

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 4: to and who will go to the capital today to

24
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 4: vote for the speaker believe that Johnson should be fine.

25
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 4: But they also know that there's a permission structure for chaos,

26
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 4: as predicated by two years ago, the last time we

27
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 4: did this only with Kevin McCarthy at the helm and

28
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 4: not Mike Johnson.

29
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: So there is an incentive structure for being a holdout.

30
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 4: But Republicans, the alphabet's actually going to be quite instructive here,

31
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 4: and we'll see do they let him twist in the

32
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 4: wind for.

33
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 5: A round or two?

34
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 6: Do they instead just get this.

35
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 4: Whole thing over with because the prevailing view at the

36
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 4: end of the day is that no one else can

37
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 4: get to two hundred and eighteen. But that's the conventional wisdom.

38
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 7: Until times it's threatened. The natal I've sent a really

39
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 7: tough position. Anybody in that position, outside of being a

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 7: single mom. I can't think of any tougher job in

41
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 7: this country right now, that van Speaker of the House,

42
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 7: because you've got all the egos. I mean, you know,

43
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 7: you've lived.

44
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 8: This life for a long time, You've seen it.

45
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 7: And then everybody thinks that they're going to be the

46
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 7: next Ember or art of some group, and then they're

47
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 7: going to, you know, get called on by the President

48
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 7: to negotiate a trade deal in North Korea or something

49
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 7: everybody's ego is pumped up when they get up here,

50
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 7: and then you got the new members coming in and

51
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 7: making sure that they're taken care of by the right committee.

52
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 7: So it's just an incredibly tough job.

53
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 4: Another thing that I'm hearing is that one of the

54
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 4: things that Johnson has really struggled with is is meeting

55
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 4: the demands of.

56
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 9: This hard right faction on these spending bills.

57
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: And this was.

58
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 9: Escalated again just last month when he came to a

59
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,519
Speaker 9: bipartisan agreement with Democrats on a short term government spending bill.

60
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 10: This is something that's going to persistently be more complicated

61
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 10: for Johnson.

62
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 3: There are a lot of people who vote present on

63
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: the Republican side. The risk of them those votes don't

64
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 3: count forward the majority, and that we have two hundred

65
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 3: and fifty serve votes by Hockey Jeffries. If enough Republicans

66
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 3: vote president, we could actually elect Hockeen Jeffries, not Mike

67
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 3: Johnson a speaker.

68
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: I mean, is that possible? Did that happen today?

69
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 3: It is numerically possible, absolutely, And now I'm not predicting that.

70
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 2: But they can't they can't afford a lot of members

71
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: on their side voting present.

72
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 3: Because that vote doesn't count forward the threshold.

73
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 11: There is no two hundred and eighteen vote majority in

74
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 11: the House for an effective speaker, for a speaker who

75
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 11: gets anything done, because that requires working with the Democrats.

76
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 11: And so let's assume that, either on a first ballot

77
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 11: or on a sub quotement ballot, Mike Johnson gets re

78
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 11: elected as speaker. Great, okay, is that really first prize?

79
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 11: Or is that or that the word down the list,

80
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 11: Because at some point, relatively soon, he's going to be

81
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 11: trying to pass some piece of legislation like keeping the

82
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 11: government open, like raising the debt ceiling, whatever, He's gonna

83
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 11: need Democratic votes and so he's going to get them,

84
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 11: and again there will be this threat.

85
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 12: So you got about seven Republicans.

86
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 13: Who have not committed, and Tom Massey says, don't even ask,

87
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 13: it's a know your thoughts about where they stand.

88
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 12: Well, I think outside of Massie, I think nobody else

89
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 12: is a hard no.

90
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 2: And so they have issues that they need to work.

91
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 8: Out with the speaker.

92
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 2: Look, this is bigger than all of us.

93
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 12: We have an agenda that we need to move forward,

94
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 12: very aggressive agenda that the Trump administration.

95
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 2: Wants us to pursue.

96
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 12: None of that can happen until we have a speaker.

97
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 12: We need to unite and get behind by Johnson and

98
00:04:52,800 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 12: get to work for America.

99
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 14: Every day there's a battle for your mind, raging information

100
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 14: coming from every angle, but the will to the sea.

101
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: I fear not.

102
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 14: You found the place for truth, the voice a generation

103
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 14: that still has the will to believe in the greatest

104
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 14: country in the history of the world. This is the

105
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 14: Charlie Kirk Show. Fuck a lot, here we go.

106
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 1: Okay, everybody, radio stations across the country.

107
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: It is a new year.

108
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: Our first broadcast of the new year. Honored to be

109
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: with you, guys. We have right there a picture and

110
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: picture look of the new Congress. It is the opening

111
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: day of the one hundred and nineteenth Congress. The American

112
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: people spoke, and despite all of the prognosticators and experts,

113
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: Republicans are going to control all three chambers of government,

114
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. Well it'll be

115
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: too brainches, Yeah, I guess three chambers is fairness? Will

116
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: two chambers all three levers of power, you could say.

117
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: There's a lot of questions though, and today as we

118
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: are doing this broadcast, it's going to be happening live.

119
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: We have a very serious Speaker of the House situation.

120
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson's tenuous speakership might collapse today. The new Congress

121
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: is assembling, and that means Congress must select a speaker.

122
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: Republicans have the narrowest majority in living memory, and that's

123
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: making things very complicated. Two years ago, Kevin McCarthy needed

124
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: fifteen rounds of votes. You remember that that was only

125
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: two years ago, fifteen rounds of votes to become speaker,

126
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: and he lasted less than ten months. When McCarthy went

127
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: into the House vote with two hundred and twenty two Republicans,

128
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 1: he could lose more than one and still become speaker.

129
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson is going to this House vote with only

130
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: two hundred and nineteen Republicans. That means Mike Johnson can

131
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: only lose exactly one Republican vote. Means if he loses too,

132
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 1: there's no majority. Thomas Massey has said he's not voting

133
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: for Johnson no matter what. So that's one vote that

134
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: Johnson can lose. He needs everybody else. It's very very

135
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: little margin for Mike Johnson. Now it's possible we could

136
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: be in for a day of theatrics. There are Republicans

137
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: who may vote against Johnson on the first ballot to

138
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: show their independence, but then back him by the end

139
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: of the day. Of course, every speaker vote takes about

140
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: an hour, so these stunts could waste quite a bit

141
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: of our time. But that is Congress for you. A

142
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: lot of people are saying that there is If there's

143
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: no speaker, it could prevent Trump from becoming president because

144
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: the House can't conduct business and so it can't certify

145
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: the election results. In my opinion, I think this is

146
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: actually very much mistaken. The Constitution clearly describes how the

147
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: presidential results are certified, and it does not require the

148
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House because the Constitution says what to

149
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: do directly. We went through this, by the way, with

150
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: the asked Kevin McCarthy CAROUSELA votes with the Kevin McCarthy carousel. Remember,

151
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: you can pass pieces of legislation without a speaker, You

152
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: can do emergency pieces of legislation without a speaker. You

153
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: can do anything without a speaker. A speaker is not

154
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: technically necessary. A speaker is not prescribed as far as

155
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: the Constitution of the House of Representatives. New members can

156
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: be sworn in by anybody. A speaker. House does not

157
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: need to do that. This is all just tradition and

158
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: House rules. So but I guess for tradition's sake, you

159
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: need a speaker. Trump, for his part, has loudly come

160
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: out in favor of Mike Johnson, posting on truth social

161
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: saying that quote, a win for Mike today will be

162
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 1: a big win for the Republican Party. That, if nothing else,

163
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: maybe enough to salvage Johnson, because far more than ever,

164
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: this is Trump's Republican Party, and any Republican scene as

165
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: sabotaging his agenda will be primaried very quickly. So look

166
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: the circumstance in front of us as the new House

167
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: meets right now the one hundred and nineteenth Congress is

168
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: will Mike Johnson stay to speak of the House? And

169
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: the answer is likely yes. By the way, I want

170
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 1: to hear from you freedom at Charliekirk dot com. Do

171
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: you want Mike Johnson to stay? Do you want Republicans

172
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: to stay behind him? The reason this is even a

173
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:35,719
Speaker 1: discussion was the way this ridiculous December spending bill was negotiated.

174
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: The reason that this is even being discussed, The reason

175
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: that this is even in contention is the way that

176
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: all went down. Remember, Speaker Mike Johnson quietly and secretly

177
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: negotiated a deal behind the scenes to create a multi

178
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: thousand page bill I think it was like fifteen hundred

179
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: pages to be specific, with Hakeem Jeffries and with Chuck

180
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: Schumer and create this behemoth call it a continuing resolution

181
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: when it really wasn't. That included funding Ukrainian biolabs, that

182
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: included the worst funding for the Democrat NGO's censorship organizations,

183
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: all to try to cut a deal for a continuing resolution.

184
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 1: House members were not led into this negotiation. They were

185
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: not allowed in on this conversation. They were not in

186
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: the room at all. House members were not involved in

187
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: any of this or made part of the process, and

188
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: it now has turned them pretty angry. It has fired

189
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: them up, and for very very good reason. Many of

190
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: these House members that we had on our program, such

191
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: as Byron Donald's and many others, they've said, we were

192
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: not even involved in this process. And look, the final

193
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: deal was better than it was thanks to you the

194
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: grassroots standing up. The final continue resolution was better, but

195
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: we still did not win the way we should have

196
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: a CR should it have been one page. We should

197
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: have got a debt ceiling, and we got zero spending cuts,

198
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 1: all because why members of Congress wanted to get home

199
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: for Christmas. Members of Congress wanted to get home for

200
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: a Christmas vacation. Nurses, airline pilots, er doctors, police officers, firefighters,

201
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: they all have to work on Christmas. Members of Congress

202
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: did not. And so look on this program. We're not

203
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 1: going to like lead the battalion and say we must

204
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: remove Speaker Johnson, but I will say passively. We just

205
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: won a mandate election in November. This should be a

206
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: no question speakers race. But the reason it isn't is

207
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: worthy of emphasis and reflection is that they've been trying

208
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: to play games with every major issue, against the will

209
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: of the American people and against the will of the

210
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: Republican Party for quite some time. Spending cuts, secure border,

211
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: defunding the FBI. Instead we have more money going to

212
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: the FBI. We got nothing on the border. Remember when

213
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: we were told by House leadership we must give money

214
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: to We're not going to fund the government until we

215
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: have a secure border. And that was all just a

216
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: bunch of rubbish. There was a bunch of bullerdash, a

217
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: bunch of nonsense, bunch of horsepucky, and so then, of

218
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: course the counter argument is okay, than who We don't

219
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: have a good answer to that. That's why I'm kind

220
00:12:51,880 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: of in a passive position here. But no, you, we

221
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: were told that there should be no money sent to

222
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: Ukraine without border security, and yet we spent hundreds of

223
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 1: billions of dollars on Ukraine thanks to this Congress has

224
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson and the House leadership earned emphasis on the

225
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: word earned your trust and your vote? Is this the

226
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: best that we can do? And I see the argument

227
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: the president wants him, and the president should get what

228
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: he wants. President Trump wants Mike Johnson. President Trump should

229
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: get Mike Johnson. He's gone all in, He's going to

230
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: bat for him. Trump wants Johnson. Trump deserves a honeymoon.

231
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: I totally respect that there is an anonymous letter right

232
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: now circulating around Congress of the last few days, all

233
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: regarding very valid criticism that we share. A group of

234
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: conservatives and potential opposition votes against Speaker Johnson are circulating

235
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: a document laying out a scorecard that lists out multiple

236
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: failures of this last Congress. While the author remains unnamed.

237
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: It hits the talking points being shared by Johnson's critics

238
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: how Republicans have repeatedly added to the nation's debt, passed

239
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 1: a to Ukraine without the support of the majority of

240
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: the GOP majority, reauthorized Faiza. In particular, they took issue

241
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: with how the last government spending bill was handled ahead

242
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: of Christmas. Is this the best we can do? I

243
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: suppose that is I guess the threshold we're at. President

244
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: Trump wants Mike Johnson, that is what we are going

245
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: to get. However, I'm not convinced that he's going to

246
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: pass on the first vote. Can we continue to have

247
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: that picture and picture please? I think the roll call

248
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: is going to start soon. And if it's not Mike Johnson,

249
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: and then who And some people say, well, give him

250
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: one hundred day honeymoon. Well we're not giving Mike Johnson

251
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: a honeymoon. The person who as has earned what he

252
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: wants and what he demands is President Trump. If President

253
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: Trump wants Mike Johnson, he earned a mandate to get

254
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: the speaker of the how that he wants period. Let's

Speaker 8: Terrence Bates.

275
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 15: It is just past high noon at the US Capital,

276
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 15: which means the first face off between Democrats and Republicans

277
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 15: is about to happen before the one hundred and nineteenth

278
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 15: Congress has sworn in, the group has the selected speaker.

279
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 15: Even some Republicans are hesitant about keeping the gaveling current

280
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 15: Speaker Mike Johnson's hands, despite President Trump's endorsement. You're looking

281
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 15: at a live picture of the House chambers. You can

282
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 15: see that there's a vote for a quorum right now.

283
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 15: Once that quorum is established, then we'll get down to

284
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 15: the nitty gritty and get down to business as the

285
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 15: members of Congress, both Republican and excuse me and Democrat,

286
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 15: will decide their first ballot on whether Mike Johnson should

287
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 15: continue as speaker or not. We're expecting that this might

288
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 15: take just a little while to get through, but either way,

289
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 15: we are going to keep you informed as all of

290

297

Speaker 1: Bobby emails us Charlie watching the opening ceremonies. Very upset

298
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: with what we're seeing with Speaker Johnson. I'm afraid we

299
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: have no choice. We're getting thousands of emails. By the way,

300
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: I want to hear from you, Freedom at Charliekirk dot com.

301
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,120
Speaker 1: President Trump has gone all in behind Speaker Johnson. He's

302
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: gone all in, all chips on the table, and he says,

303
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: I want Speaker Johnson, and look I've gotten the no

304
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: Speaker Johnson. We have a very up and down relationship.

305
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: It's very well publicized, and I try to give people

306
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: second and third and fourth chances. I'm not gonna like say, hey,

307
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: we need to oppose him.

308
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 3: I get it.

309
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: You got to vote for from You got to vote for him.

310
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 1: The thing that bothered me the most was the FIZA vote,

311
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: the border deception. This last cr was very demoralizing. It's

312
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: very demoralizing. Not because I mean, look, you know that

313
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:31,919
Speaker 1: they're going to do their thing in DC where they

314
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: spend a bunch of money and don't do any spending cuts,

315
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: but it's at that he was not involving President Trump

316
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: in the negotiation process of this monstrosity bill the incoming president,

317
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, here it is one five

318
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 1: hundred pages, and we have Ukrainian bio labs and censorship

319
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 1: industrial complex and just nonsense and rubbish all throughout this

320
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 1: bill that was just thrown at us. In the last second.

321
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: We said, oh, we have to we have to read

322
00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 1: this thing. President trum up on some and President Trump

323
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: has earned to have the Speaker of the House of

324
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: his choice. By the way, nobody else wants this job.

325
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: It is thankless, it's not easy, and it's not an excuse,

326
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 1: by the way, to lie. I just want be very

327
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: clear when when people say, well, you know, it's a

328
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: really hard job and all this, but telling the truth

329
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: takes zero talent. Telling the truth is not something that

330
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: requires a PhD in physics. Telling the truth is elemental

331
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: to a free society. And you in the audience are

332
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 1: fired up right now because when you are told there

333
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: is no choice, you say, wait a second, what kind

334
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: of prisoner of another binary that does not exist? Do

335
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: I have to be How many times are you told, well,

336
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: you have to vote for this trashy bill because there's

337
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: no time. Well, there's no time because you waited to

338
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: the last minute, so there's no choice, and there's no time,

339
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: there's no option. So therefore we must go with what's

340
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:15,360
Speaker 1: in front of us. And this is what creates widespread distrust,

341
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:24,360
Speaker 1: widespread rebellion against our institutions, cynicism, And it's very difficult

342
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: for me to say, you know what, actually you should

343
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: trust all these institutions. Actually you should think very highly

344
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: of Congress. Very very difficult. So I get it, I

345
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: get the theory, I get the rage. In fact, this

346
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: cr that turned into an omnibus. I can't defend that,

347
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: and then we're going to have that pass and there'll

348
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: be no consequences. Yes, because yes, because President Trump's in

349
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: a very difficult position. I'm not going to say I

350
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,719
Speaker 1: even agree or disagree. I told the team, I'm very

351
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: indifferent about this entire thing. I don't have strong opinions

352
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: either way in the sense where I totally sympathize and

353
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: understand that removal is based on the track record, like

354
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: what did you for us? However, removal is probably not

355
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: very wise at all. And let's say let's say President

356
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: Trump said I want Mike Johnson gun Let's play this out.

357
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: Let's say, let's say President Trump said I want Mike

358
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: Johnson gun. That will infuriate every single moderate that he

359
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: needs with a two seat majority, a two seat majority

360
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: to pass his premier legislation. So Lawler and Jason Smith

361
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,199
Speaker 1: and all of them would then get infuriated at President

362
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: Trump and not vote for any of the piece of

363
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: legislation that President Trump wants, Don Bacon, they would all say,

364
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: President Trump, go pound sand We're not going to vote

365
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 1: for your border stuff. We're not going to vote for

366
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: your tax stuff. We're not going to vote for any

367
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: of it. And then you don't even have a replacement.

368
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: So there is no choice. There is no replacement. So

369
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: President Trump's in a very very difficult position here. So

370
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: I can understand why he has made the decision that

371
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: he's made, and it's very annoying for everybody in this audience,

372
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: And to be perfectly honest, it's irritating and it makes

373
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: us very angry because we worked hard and we won

374
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: this election triumph and then we look at Congress and

375
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: we say we could do a lot better. And that's

376
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: not just a Mike Johnson thing, it's a legislative results thing.

377
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,479
Speaker 1: By the way, I have become a premier expert on

378
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: this program in every single excuse. Oh it's too close

379
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: to an election, so we can't do spending cuts. Oh

380
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: it's Christmas, so I need a vacation. We don't have

381
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: any other option for a speaker. It's too late on

382
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 1: a deadline, and the debt ceiling and the cold country

383
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: are going to go into default. We know all the excuses,

384
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: and the base. You the backbone, the spine of the

385
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: Republican Party, the vanguard of the nation. You're not buying

386
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: those excuses much anymore. So I want to hear from

387
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,719
Speaker 1: you Freedom at Charliekirk dot com, President Trump. That's what

388
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: President Trump wants. He wants Mike Johnson, and I bet

389
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 1: he's going to get him. We'll be right back.

390
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 8: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm

391
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 8: Terrence Bates. We appreciate you being here with us.

392
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 15: All eyes are trained on Capitol Hill right now as

393
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 15: we are preparing to get underway with the vote for

394
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 15: House Speaker Mike Johnson. Of course, the current House Speaker

395
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 15: facing some challenges this morning, as there are a number

396
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 15: of Republicans already on record saying that they will not

397
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 15: vote for him, at least not on this first ballot.

398
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 15: A quorum has been established on Capitol Hill, which means

399
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 15: that we are now ready to go forward with a vote.

400
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 15: We're expecting that to happen at any moment.

401
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 11: Now.

402
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 15: I can tell you that Vice President Kamala Harris just

403
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 15: moments ago swore in members of the US Senate.

404
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 8: So they are sworn in. But unfortunately here at the House,

405
00:23:58,720 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 8: we have to have House.

406
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 15: Leadership before the swearing end process can happen. And again

407
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 15: we're expecting at least the first vote for Speaker Mike

408
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 15: Johnson to retain the gavel to happen.

409
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 8: Here in short order.

410
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 15: You can see the members of Congress milling around right

411
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 15: now waiting for all of this to happen. In the meantime,

412
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 15: Speaker Johnson spoke earlier today and even last night talking

413
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 15: about some of his priorities, and it appears that the

414
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 15: one thing that got him into being an embattled speaker,

415
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,919
Speaker 15: his negotiations over the funding bill for the country, is

416
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 15: also what he's focusing on immediately upon taking the gavel.

417
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 8: If and when he is re elected.

418
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 16: We're not going to get any Democrats to go along

419
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 16: with us to cut a lot of spending we know,

420
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 16: so using the reconciliation process is the way to do that,

421
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 16: and it is basically reconciling the budget that we will

422
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 16: pass in early January, and that's how you're going to

423
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 16: get significant spending cuts. We have lots of ideas, We've

424
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 16: got pages and pages of areas to do that. And

425
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 16: at the same time, remember we'll have this parallel operation

426
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 16: with Doge going on again.

427
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 15: Once a speaker is voted on, the current members of

428
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 15: Congress will then be sworn in, and if all goes

429
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 15: as planned, they'll ultimately certify President Trump's election victory on Monday.

430
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 15: This is a live shot again, as there is now

431
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 15: a quorum, which means voting can start here in short order,

432
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 15: as the current members of Congress will decide whether Mike

433
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 15: Johnson will retain his gavel.

434
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 8: As Speaker of the House or not.

435
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 15: We of course, will be covering all of this for

436
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 15: you live here on Real America's Voice will be following

437
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 15: it all for you, and when appropriate, we'll also break

438
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,439
Speaker 15: in and allow you to hear the various votes as

439
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 15: they are tendered. This could last for a couple of rounds,

440
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 15: or it could last for just one either way, We're

441
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 15: going to be here for the entirety of it.

442
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 8: For now, let's get you back to the Charlie kirkshod.

466
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 17: My suspicion is that Mike Johnson will be elected speaker,

467
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,400
Speaker 17: that it will likely be today, and I would anticipate

468
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 17: either the first or the second vote. That's because for

469
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 17: my friends who are concerned about Mike Johnson's inability to

470
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 17: deliver single subject bills, is inability to put downward pressure

471
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 17: on any spending, to open up the process where you

472
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 17: can read the bills with sufficient time to analyze their

473
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 17: impact in advance. MI guy hasn't done those things, but

474
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 17: to vote against him now does not create an ecosystem

475
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 17: to change that dynamic will have to be done after

476
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 17: President Trump's certification and after President Trump is in office.

477
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 17: And I knew when we put a little pressure on

478
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 17: Speaker Designatet McCarthy to give us some concessions concessions that

479
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 17: put key conservatives on committees where the product at the

480
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 17: end of the day we hoped would be more reflective

481
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 17: of where our voters are.

482
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 2: That was because Joe Biden was president and there was no.

483
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 17: Real eagerness on the part of the Republican base to

484
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 17: get to the Joe Biden agenda, whereas now there's great

485
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 17: hope and opportunity that a lot of Americans see in

486
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 17: the Trump agenda. So Mike Johnson will be speaker. I've

487
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 17: suggested to my colleagues that the best way to make

488
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 17: Mike Johnson the best version of himself is not to

489
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 17: put him through the ringer today, but instead to start

490
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 17: talking about the policy concessions fiscal conservatives need in the

491
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 17: upcoming budget bill. And you'll hear it called reconciliation, which

492
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 17: it always seemed like a weird word to me, reconciliation

493
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 17: because that's like when you're getting back together. But the

494
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 17: reality is this bill often creates a lot more tension

495
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 17: than reconciliation. But they'll be demands for border policy in there,

496
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 17: tax policy, they'll be a desire to reduce spending in

497
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 17: a lot of the agencies that have had mission creep,

498
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 17: like the Department of Education and the EPA, and our

499
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 17: hope is that you get a speaker willing and confident

500
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 17: to execute on that agenda. But let me tell you something, Charlie.

501
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 17: If this had been a close one, I would have

502
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 17: been there. I have a certificate of election that I

503
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 17: think still would have worked today. But I spoke to

504
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 17: Mike Johnson last night and he exhibited great confidence that

505
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 17: after President Trump spoke with a number of our colleagues

506
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 17: and excited them around a unifying agenda, that today would

507
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 17: be largely ceremonialm.

508
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: So, yeah, you could have actually showed up and voted

509
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: today if I'm not mistake. Is that what you're saying

510
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: is that right, Matt, Yeah.

511
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 2: Vote was needed. I would have been there. I had

512
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 2: a flight booked and everything.

513
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 17: But the speaker gave me a ring and said he

514
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 17: felt as though that people's concerns have been heard, that

515
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 17: they were being addressed, and that they would have a

516
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 17: unified Republican team coming out of the day.

517
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 1: So, Matt, let me speak on behalf of the audience.

518
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: We have about three thousand emails that have come in

519
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: in the last thirty minutes, and it's ninety nine percent

520
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: against Speaker Johnson. They can't stand him. They call him

521
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: a gutless wonder. They say he's a liar, He's deceived us,

522
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: he has misled us. What is your message to the

523
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 1: grassroots that are incredibly disappointed with Speaker Johnson.

524
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 2: I'm disappointed as well.

525
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 17: When we voted for Speaker Johnson, he was for single

526
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 17: subject bills, he was against the war in Ukraine, and

527
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 17: he wanted to curtail federal powers of surveillance beyond the

528
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 17: constraints of the Constitution. And he reversed his view on

529
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 17: all those things and then constructed this terrible spending bill.

530
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 17: The hope is that courage is pages that if you

531
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 17: believe Mike Johnson is a gutless wonder, that once President

532
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 17: Trump is dictating the agenda, Johnson will be be merely

533
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 17: a vessel for that agenda. He has shown he is

534
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 17: not going to be a change agent for the House

535
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 17: of Representatives. Now, where I will disagree with your monologue

536
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 17: earlier when you said, well, nobody else wants the job,

537
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 17: that's not true, Tom Emmer. The current whip wants the job.

538
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 17: Jim Jordan wants the job. You know they're going to

539
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 17: vote for Mike Johnson today as a show of unity,

540
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 17: but nothing.

541
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 2: I mean, those two.

542
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 17: Guys ran for speaker in twenty twenty four. That's typically

543
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 17: an itch that doesn't go away with one scratch.

544
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: So what can be done through this process to try

545
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: to ensure the next six months are better for President Trump?

546
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: So let's say this he does end up getting the speakership.

547
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 1: Is there any concessions from rules changes or packages, because, Matt,

548
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: A lot of those concessions that you were able to

549
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: deliver after the vacation of Kevin McCarthy were actually never

550
00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: followed through upon.

551
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 2: Right, Here's what I learned, Charlie.

552
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 17: The only concessions that are durable are personnel concessions. When

553
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 17: someone says, oh, I promise this bill will get a vote.

554
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 17: I promise we'll get a vote on term limits. I

555
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 17: promised that we'll have spending cuts. With the right accounting

556
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 17: tricks and the right political excuses, people can always weasel

557
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 17: themselves out of those commitments. The commitments we got from

558
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 17: McCarthy that are durable to this day. Putting strong conservatives

559
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 17: on the Rules Committee, putting people like Andrew Clyde on

560
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 17: the Appropriations Committee, and when those folks first get on

561
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 17: they don't have the seniority or at times the juice

562
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 17: to drive the agenda of those committees. That's why Lauren

563
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 17: Bobert came on my program on One American News last

564
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 17: night and said, if Johnson would agree to make Chip

565
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 17: Roy the head of the Rules Committee, a lot of

566
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 17: those fiscal hawks would fly in formation behind him in

567
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 17: supporting Johnson. I don't know if that deal was made.

568
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 17: Johnson was indicating that he wasn't interested in any quid

569
00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 17: pro quo on personnel. But if I were the holdouts,

570
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 17: I would be holding out for getting the people who

571
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 17: are not financially compromised by the lobby core or special

572
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 17: interests into some of the key budget positions.

573
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 2: That's how it goes best for Trump.

574
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: So let's dive into the legislative calendar. It seems as

575
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: if the consensus in DC is one big reconciliation bill.

576
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: What is a reconciliation bill? You've mentioned this previously before.

577
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: Educate our audience on how this process works so that

578
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: we can avoid sixty votes in the US Senate, right, Well,

579
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: that's the.

580
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 2: Essence of it.

581
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 17: On everything from an immigration policy to a Mother's Day resolution,

582
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 17: you typically need sixty votes into the Senate to proceed

583
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 17: onto anything of substance. And here there is a unique,

584
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 17: unique kind of breakthrough on the Senate filibuster that only

585
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 17: requires fifty votes plus device President if it is budget policy.

586
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 17: So there will be an analysis done of everyone's ambitious

587
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 17: and goals and ideas for this piece of legislation that

588
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 17: already folks are working on this month to see what

589
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 17: is true budgetary policy verst what is a policy that

590
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 17: is not spending but otherwise in nature, and then that

591
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 17: will be excluded from what is negotiated. Now, our friends,

592
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 17: the borderhawks will say, darn it, we want every bit

593
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 17: of amnesty reform in this bill, and that will be challenging.

594
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 17: And then you'll have some of the fiscal hawks saying, well,

595
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 17: we won't vote for it unless we get the trillions

596
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 17: of dollars cut that Elon Musk has talked about with Doge.

597
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 17: And my suspicion is that the big spenders still occupy

598
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 17: a sufficient majority in both the House and the Senate

599
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 17: once you peel away party labels, and that.

600
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,280
Speaker 2: They will resist that greatly.

601
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 17: So I think that President Trump has got the debtlimited

602
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,919
Speaker 17: deal with that could be a function of the Reconciliation bill.

603
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 17: It's going to be everybody trying to get their priority

604
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,760
Speaker 17: in this one thing. And ultimately this is so bizarre,

605
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 17: but the Senate Parliamentarian is the person empowered to determine

606
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 17: whether or not a specific feature of legislation fits inside

607
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 17: or outside of reconciliation.

608
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 2: How's that for in the weeds for you, Charlie.

609
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so let's dive deeper into that. The Senate Parliamentarian,

610
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: when do they weigh in. Potentially they could weigh in

611
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: once the bills already passed the House. Is that correct?

612
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 17: They could, yes, and that's when they have to officially

613
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,320
Speaker 17: determine whether or not provisions qualify.

614
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 2: But here's what will happen.

615
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 17: Lobbyists and special interests will go and work the Senate

616
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 17: Parliamentarian's office to try to get a specific idea or

617
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 17: proposal either deemed included or excluded. And so before you

618
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 17: even get a ruling from the Senate Parliamentarian, you'll have

619
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 17: committee chairs and other people who are just vessels of

620
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 17: special interests show up to representatives and say, oh, well,

621
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 17: we'd love to include this reform, but we've heard the

622
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 17: Senate Parliamentarian isn't going to allow it under what's called

623
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 17: the Bird rule.

624
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 2: That's the rule that.

625
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 17: Empowers the Senate parliamentary to make this calculus.

626
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,399
Speaker 2: And then when things fall out of.

627
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 17: The bill as a consequence of the Bird rule, they

628
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 17: are inaptly described as the bird droppings of the Reconciliation.

629
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is not constitutional. This is just a

630
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: Senate rule, right, And so this one person who I

631
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: don't know if she's good or bad. Her name is

632
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: Elizabeth McDonough. She's been there since twenty twelve. Is one

633
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,720
Speaker 1: of the most powerful people in America. Is that correct?

634
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 2: That's right, That's how the Senators behave.

635
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 17: But it is sort of to your exact point, it

636
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 17: is a prison of their own construction.

637
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 2: Right.

638
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 17: If I were Senate Majority leader, if Rick Scott were

639
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 17: Senate Majority Leader, he would just say, no, no, no, no,

640
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 17: this is.

641
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 2: What we deem appropriate. We're in the majority.

642
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 17: The majority deems that for the Reconciliation to pass, this

643
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 17: is what's in, this is what's out. Presumably Jade Vance

644
00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 17: could do that as the constitutional presiding officer of the Senate.

645
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 17: He could just go and buy function of the constitution,

646
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 17: seize that power from the Senate parliamentarian to do that

647
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 17: we would then have to awaken all of the senators

648
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 17: with smelling salts after they've clutched their pearls and passed

649
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,399
Speaker 17: out a gas with the violation of norms. But we're

650
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 17: either all prisoners of the Senate parliamentarian or there has

651
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 17: to be some exercise of the power of the majority

652
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 17: to get our accomplishments into this first critical piece of legislation.

653
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,360
Speaker 1: Matt, you have a new show. Tell us about it.

654
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: How is life? You are going to be Attorney General?

655
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: Then life takes different detours. Tell us how things are

656
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:37,760
Speaker 1: going in Matt Gates World.

657

Speaker 2: Now, I'm excited.

658
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 17: I've got the Matt Gates Show on One American News,

659
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 17: and the same day my show premiered, won American News

660
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 17: was added to Sling and was also added to the

661
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,560

662
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 17: we were the day before I started. And I'm really

663
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 17: excited about the growth of the network and the opportunity.

664
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,439
Speaker 2: To have the discussions that I used to.

665
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 17: Have with lawmakers on the floor and in committee for

666

687

723
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 1: Can we have the picture and picture up please? As

724
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: we continue to talk about this, here's what I will

725
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: say about Congress. There are some rockstars in Congress and

726
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: hopefully even more coming on a Paulina Luna is a rockstar.

727
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 1: There are rockstars across the board, Brandon Gill, who is

728
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: a very promising new rock star. However, I'll be honest,

729
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 1: most members of Congress are incredibly unimpressive. You would not

730
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:11,840
Speaker 1: hire them to be a dog catcher. And this is

731
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 1: the greatest thing they've ever done and they ever will do.

732
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 1: By the way, They've never run a hot dog stand,

733
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 1: nor could they. They're incredibly ambitious. They're cunning and very

734
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: interested in vanity. Now again, I want to make sure

735
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 1: it's very clear there are some rock star members of Congress,

736
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 1: like darrel Issa. I don't agree with them on everything.

737
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: Very impressive, very smart man, built a business, very very

738
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: smart person. There's plenty of them. However, there are far

739
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 1: more than the impressive. Is the unimpressive. They are just

740
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:47,280
Speaker 1: there to be important, to feel as if they've done something,

741
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: and for them, this is the student council equivalent for

742
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 1: the rest of their life. They get paid a nice wage, which,

743
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: by the way, I remember that other Continuing Resolution bill

744
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: that got shot down had a pay raise for Congress

745
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: adding insult to injury. By the way, I will give

746
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 1: a member you know what I think the bill should be.

747
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 1: I think someone should introduce this bill. I think it's

748
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: a great bill. If we balance the budget, every member

749
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: of Congress gets a one million dollar bonus. I think

750
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,320
Speaker 1: it would be a great, great use of five hundred

751
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 1: and thirty five million dollars. I think that if we

752
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 1: have if every member of Congress, if they balance the budget,

753
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: everyone gets a million bucks, say two million bucks, make

754
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: it a billion dollars. Breaking news. By the way, Representative

755
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: Tim Burshett has said he expects multiple rounds of voting.

756
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: But I thought it was just going to be one round.

757
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 1: That's what some of our sources were saying. Turns out

758
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 1: they were wrong. Multiple rounds of voting. That's why we

759
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: are here on the Charlie Kirkshaw to monitor all this,

760
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: to manage it, to see what's happening in real time.

761
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 1: By the way, you shouldn't be surprised the multiple rounds

762
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: of voting. People are angry, and they shouldn't be angry.

763
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 1: People are fired up, and you got these elevated student

764
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: council dog catchers out there, some of them, some are

765
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:17,800
Speaker 1: wonderful people, some are very impressive that have bankrupted the

766
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: country indicating that there's another no vote. Look, this is

767
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: all going to get sorted out. Mike Johnson's going to

768
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 1: become a speaker. It might take two rounds, three rounds,

769
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 1: four rounds, five rounds. They want to try to create

770
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: a pr spectacle around it.

771
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 11: Fine.

772
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 8: Good.

773
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: In some ways, it's warranted to have the spectacle because

774
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: what has Congress delivered for us. In some ways, you

775
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:43,440
Speaker 1: got to send a message to the American pete. You

776
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,719
Speaker 1: got to shock the system a little bit. I get it.

777
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: Johnson's going to be speaker, kind of a little bit

778
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,839
Speaker 1: of a reminder that he's got. He's on a little

779
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 1: bit of a dangerous terrain right now. But you can't

780
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: extend this beyond Sunday. You don't want certification to get

781
00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: in the way. Totally understand it. That's fair, argum, It's fine. Look,

782
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 1: the emails are receiving freedom at Charlie Kirk dot com

783
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: are ninety nine percent against Speaker Johnson. Just overwhelming. That's

784
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: probably an unsustainable political equation when you have ninety nine

785
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 1: percent of the base of your party that does not

786
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 1: want the speaker to continue. Not good at all. It

787
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 1: is a formula that is a recipe for disaster. We

788
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 1: said the same thing during the McCarthy fight. What is

789
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 1: the alternative what is the plan, and eventually the dam broke.

790
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,479
Speaker 1: Now the difference, though, is that we have President Trump

791
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: and we have the White House. President Trump is going

792
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:47,279
Speaker 1: to get one big legislative shot. Take your shot, and

793
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a big, beautiful bill.

794
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:51,439
Speaker 1: It's going to be border, it's going to be tax,

795
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 1: it's going to be everything. So I get it. If

796
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: I was President Trump, almost have no choice but to

797
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,799
Speaker 1: get behind Mike Johnson, almost no choice. You can't tick

798
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 1: off the moderates. You got to try to bring people together.

799
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 1: I get it. Governing is hard, It's very hard. I

800
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:13,839
Speaker 1: do not envy those that have to govern. However, I

801
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: will not continue to make excuses and I will not

802
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: continue to dodge and weave when people don't tell the truth.

803
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: That is a category difference. You tell the truth. It

804
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: takes no talent to tell the truth. Email us Freedom

836
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,479
Speaker 15: Johnson to retain the Speaker's gavel in the US House.

837
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 17: UH.

838
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,280
Speaker 15: As we've been listening, there were at least two people

839
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 15: that I've counted that decided not to speak up when

840
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 15: their name was called, which indicates that this may go beyond.

841
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:51,279
Speaker 8: Just the first round.

842
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 15: Again, this is the first ye of several round or

843
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 15: potentially several rounds of balloting, and at this point it

844
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:59,319
Speaker 15: appears that it will take Mike Johnson more than one

845
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 15: ballot order to secure the speaker's gabble. We'll continue to

846
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:04,399
Speaker 15: cover this for you and bring you back here live

847
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,839
Speaker 15: as we continue to get answers for now, let's get

848
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 15: you back to your regularly scheduled programming.

849
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:31,360
Speaker 1: Okay, Our coverage continues of the speaker fight on the

850
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,239
Speaker 1: floor of the House of the Representatives. It is ongoing

851
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 1: right now. Tim Burshett has tweeted out saying he thinks

852
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 1: it's going to go to rounds and it's currently sixty

853
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 1: four sixty four tide in the House of Representatives and

854
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 1: it's going to come right down. In fact, they called,

855
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:55,720
Speaker 1: they said Andy Biggs from Arizona, and he remained silent,

856
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 1: which means they go back to him at the end.

857
00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 1: It's the most melodramatic thing. I have a feeling Andy

858
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: Biggs based on that might vote for Abraham Lincoln, just

859
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,120
Speaker 1: just a gut feeling that he might vote for Donald

860
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: Trump for speaker. We'll see. The anger of the base

861
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 1: is real. What has Congress delivered for us? And it's

862
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 1: always an excuse. Well, I gotta go to Christmas vacation.

863
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,280
Speaker 1: It's too close to an election. We don't have enough seats. Actually,

864
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 1: you have a House majority. There is no trust between

865
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,680
Speaker 1: the American grassroots and Congress. There is no trust. Trust

866
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 1: is earned, it is not given. You don't just get

867
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 1: trust for existing. You earn it. You get in the arena,

868
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 1: you work hard, you produce results massive chasm of a

869
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 1: disconnect between what the American people want and what Congress

870
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 1: has been. I want to play this piece of tape

871
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:11,960
Speaker 1: here of JD. Vance and Kamala Harris. I don't know

872
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 1: if we've loaded it up or not yet. I'm pretty remarkable.

873
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,920
Speaker 1: Let's play cut fifty. It's one of my new favorite

874
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 1: pieces of tape. Here Kamala Harris swearing in the new

875
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: Senate majority with JD. Vance. Play cut fifty.

876
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,720
Speaker 20: Do you solemnly swear that you will support and defend

877
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 20: the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign

878
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:35,480
Speaker 20: and domestic, That you will bear true faith and allegiance

879
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:39,240
Speaker 20: to the same, That you take this obligation freely, without

880
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 20: any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that you

881
00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 20: will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office

882
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 20: upon which you are about to enter.

883
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:58,799
Speaker 1: So help you God, I do do. I just love

884
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:03,800
Speaker 1: jd Vance miling and grinning as it's occurring. Jd Vance

885
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 1: is now the senior Senator from Ohio. The senior Senator

886
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 1: feels good to say Senior Senator jd Vance And so

887
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 1: therefore jd Vance will resign his post, creating a vacancy.

888
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 1: The governor of Ohio will replace him, making Bernie Moreno

889
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:32,400
Speaker 1: the senior Senator from Ohio. Timing is very important with

890
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:36,360
Speaker 1: this very very important shared Brown is gone. We defeated you.

891
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: Casey from Pennsylvania is gone. We defeated you. There should

892
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: be other retirements there soon. The fact that Reuben Diego

893
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,040
Speaker 1: is a senator, Oh, that drives me nuts. Guys, that

894
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:55,640
Speaker 1: rat Jackie Rosen awful, Tammy Baldwin awful. However, we won

895
00:55:55,800 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 1: some really really good ones. Some really good ones join

896
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:02,719
Speaker 1: us now is Kurt Schlichter Kurt? The House of Representatives

897
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: melodrama is continuing. How should we think about all of this?

898
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:10,760
Speaker 13: Well, I'd like to think about is there a plan?

899
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 13: I mean, look, I was no big fan of McCarthy.

900
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:19,440
Speaker 13: I was, I'm no big fan of Mike Johnson. What's

901
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 13: the plan, though, Charlie, what what are we going to

902
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 13: do if we don't have Mike Johnson? And I'm not

903
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:29,839
Speaker 13: I don't foreclose the possibility there's a better speaker out there,

904
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 13: although a lot of people seem to misunderstand what a

905
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 13: speaker does. They want the guy who's most ideologically cope aesthetic,

906
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 13: and that's not right what he does. He's really a conductor,

907
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 13: a traffic director, a guy who puts together coalitions and

908
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:48,480
Speaker 13: raises money. As long as he's not undermining you, he's

909
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,800
Speaker 13: probably okay ideologically.

910
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 2: But again, what's the plan? Andy Biggs?

911
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:55,520
Speaker 9: You know?

912
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:56,320
Speaker 1: What's the plan?

913
00:56:56,600 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 2: Massey? Chip Roy who I like? What's the plan?

914
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:02,160
Speaker 21: Hip?

915
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 2: What's the plan?

916
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 13: I'd like to know because if you don't have a plan,

917
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 13: you're going to fail.

918
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 1: And I agree, I think Kurt. If you were to

919
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,440
Speaker 1: ask them privately, they would say the plan is performative,

920
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:20,479
Speaker 1: which I think is silly. However, is there a place

921
00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:23,840
Speaker 1: in politics for like, we're at least going to put

922
00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 1: up the motions of some sort of a fight or

923
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 1: is that just completely silly and should be dismissed.

924
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:34,400
Speaker 13: Well, look, we have been putting up a fight. We

925
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 13: we beat back that fifteen hundred page atrocity, and.

926
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 2: You know, did a continuing.

927
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:46,480
Speaker 13: Resolution, which is bad, but it was nowhere near as

928
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 13: bad as what we beat down.

929
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:55,960
Speaker 2: So we are making progress. Look, you, we're going to.

930
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:59,080
Speaker 13: Take two steps forward and one step back, and I

931
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 13: think we need to off as a movement expecting perfection

932
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,680
Speaker 13: all the time. On the other hand, we also cannot

933
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:13,720
Speaker 13: never expect perfection. You were yeah, you were very eloquent

934
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 13: when you were saying, oh, well, we can't do it.

935
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 13: It's too close to the election. It's Christmas vacation, my

936
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:21,840
Speaker 13: dogs at the veterinarians.

937
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 2: We can't get this path. We don't have to accept that.

938
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:25,560
Speaker 2: That's not what I'm saying.

939
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:30,000
Speaker 13: What I'm saying is that we need to understand that

940
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,240
Speaker 13: we've got a three to four vote majority.

941
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:33,880
Speaker 2: That's going to be tight.

942
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 13: It's going to give individual congressman the chance to be

943
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 13: show votes, and human nature says that out of about

944
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 13: two hundred and twenty two congressman, you're going to have

945
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 13: a few who want to get that spotlight. And the

946
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 13: way they get that spotlight is by saying no so

947
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 13: it's we're in a tough position. I think we'd be

948
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 13: in a we'd be in a much better position if

949
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 13: we had more congressman. And I think if we had

950
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 13: Kevin Carthy, as much as I have problems with Ken

951
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 13: McCarthy and I certainly do, I think we would have had.

952
00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 13: I think we'd have won more seats because he's a

953
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 13: very savvy operator, even if he does make me want

954
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:13,440
Speaker 13: to pound my head into.

955
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 8: The wall sometimes.

956
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:16,280
Speaker 2: So we are where we are.

957
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 13: We used to make the best of it, and that

958
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 13: means acting as adults and trying to achieve ninety percent

959
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 13: of what we want rather than zero percent.

960
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:31,480
Speaker 1: Here is the update right now is that as we're

961
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:36,240
Speaker 1: here alive for Republicans Biggs, Cloud, Gosar, and Harris have

962
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 1: not responded to the speaker vote, and of course Carson

963
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 1: as Democrat as well, they then get to go at

964
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,040
Speaker 1: the end and kind of do some melodrama. I would

965
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 1: not be surprised if this goes to a second and

966
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:50,720
Speaker 1: third ballot. Kurt, Let's assume that Johnson does survive. Are

967
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,480
Speaker 1: there any should there at least be a forcing function

968
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:58,280
Speaker 1: of more concessions and more agreements to try to make

969
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:01,400
Speaker 1: sure we don't get another continue resolute. What compromises could

970
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:02,920
Speaker 1: legitimately be offered.

971
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 13: Well, look, I would love to get back to regular order,

972
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 13: but that's going to take more than I think that's

973
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 13: going to take more than four or five.

974
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:13,760
Speaker 2: People forcing it.

975
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,440
Speaker 13: I think you need a commitment on the bay on

976
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 13: the part of the entire Republican Caucus, and unfortunately we

977
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,960
Speaker 13: don't have that. I mean, look, I've got today. I'm

978
01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 13: I'm vaguely annoyed with the guys who aren't jumping on board.

979
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 13: But let's understand the root of the problem is a

980
01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 13: lot of these appropriator Republicans, Republicans who are hardcore conservatives

981
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 13: right up to election day, then they come back to

982
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:41,760
Speaker 13: Washington and it's off to state dinners and hanging with

983
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:46,920
Speaker 13: the lobbyists. We need an ideological commitment to putting the

984
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 13: America First agenda that the American people voted for with

985
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,760
Speaker 13: Donald Trump and overwhelmingly in the Senate.

986
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:54,320
Speaker 2: Into effect in the House.

987
01:00:55,000 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 13: And it's you know, I think we saw some beneficial

988
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 13: stuff happening over in the Senate where we got focused

989
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 13: on people who.

990
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,880
Speaker 2: Were trying to be glory hogs.

991
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:13,240
Speaker 13: I mean Jony Earn before she brought the spotlight on

992
01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:17,640
Speaker 13: herself with this whole Hamlet act over Pete Hegseon. Did

993
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 13: you know she was a giant squish who supported the

994
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:25,320
Speaker 13: Langford immigration abomination and the corn and gun control thing.

995
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:26,320
Speaker 2: I didn't know that.

996
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 13: I just thought she was a relatively inoffensive backbencher. And

997
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:33,600
Speaker 13: then she threw the spotlight on herself. We all saw it,

998
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 13: and boy, she beat a hasty retreat. I think we

999
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:38,640
Speaker 13: need to do that for some congressman.

1000
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 1: Really quick, Kurt, plug your books here, you got a

1001
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,120
Speaker 1: break coming up here, Really quick plug your stuff.

1002
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,880
Speaker 13: Check out The Attack. It's my newest novel. It's about

1003
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,720
Speaker 13: terrorism in America. And I got to say my sales

1004
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 13: are huge after the last two days because in this book,

1005
01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 13: which I did in conjunction with her people who are

1006
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 13: deeply in the know, U talks about the internal threat

1007
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 13: that we have here and taking.

1008
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:08,840
Speaker 2: Will be right back in.

1009
01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,440
Speaker 15: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm

1010
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 15: Terrence Bates. We are monitoring the vote for House speaker

1011
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 15: right now. Right now, current House cheaking excuse me, Mike Johnson,

1012
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 15: facing a bit of trouble as there have been several

1013
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 15: Republicans who have decided not to vote.

1014
01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,200
Speaker 8: However, even in advance of.

1015
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 15: The vote, a number of Republicans, one in particular, gave

1016
01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 15: Mike Johnson a quite the vote of confidence.

1017
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 22: The fundamental collective goal of this body is to make

1018
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:52,160
Speaker 22: progress for the American people in which we represent, and

1019
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:57,920
Speaker 22: we have done just that under Mike's leadership. We should

1020
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:05,000
Speaker 22: be celebrating and build upon his efforts, our efforts. Mike

1021
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 22: has remained the same kind and caring person as he

1022
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 22: was before he assumed this role. He's an honest broker.

1023
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 22: He shows you his true belief set face value. He

1024
01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 22: is steadfast in his values of faith, family, and love

1025
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 22: of this country. He knows our brightest days are still

1026
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 22: ahead of us.

1027
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 15: That was Michigan Congresswoman Lisa McClain. They're giving Mike Johnson

1028
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:38,760
Speaker 15: a vote of confidence as he goes into this election.

1029
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,440
Speaker 15: This again is the first vote that you're looking at

1030
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 15: right now. It appears that Mike Johnson may not be

1031
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 15: elected and may not get the gavel on this first vote,

1032
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,200
Speaker 15: but let's listen in as the votes continue to come

1033
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 15: over of.

1034
01:03:50,680 --> 01:04:01,040
Speaker 18: North Carolina, Johnson, more of Utah, Johnson more of Wisconsin,

1035
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 18: Jeffries more of West Virginia, John Johnson, Marin.

1036
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:17,600
Speaker 5: Johnson, Morelli, Jeffries.

1037
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 15: Again, Mike Johnson can only afford to lose one Republican vote,

1038
01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 15: and at this point at least two, if not three

1039
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,880
Speaker 15: Republicans did not at all respond when Mike Johnson's name

1040
01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:30,040
Speaker 15: was called or when their name was called to make

1041
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:31,960
Speaker 15: their vote. So we'll continue to monitor to this for

1042
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 15: you and keep you up there.

1043
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 1: Okay, everybody, welcome back. Email us as always freedom at

1044
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 1: Charliekirk dot com. So far there are four people that

1045
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:54,480
Speaker 1: have at least moved their votes to the end, so

1046
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:56,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be very melodramatic. We have our eyes

1047
01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:00,680
Speaker 1: on this as it is occurring. We are going six people.

1048
01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:02,360
Speaker 1: I want to go right to the end when they

1049
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 1: are called. Mike Johnson can only lose two people. He's

1050
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:09,080
Speaker 1: already lost Thomas Massey who voted for Tom Emmer. So

1051
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:14,920
Speaker 1: if one more person Biggs Cloud, Clyde, Gosar Harris end

1052
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:17,240
Speaker 1: up saying no, now, they got to be a little

1053
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,360
Speaker 1: bit careful, you know. They got to be a little

1054
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,880
Speaker 1: bit careful because they don't have as much flex in

1055
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:28,440
Speaker 1: the joints that they did last time with McCarthy. So

1056
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 1: Hakeem Jeffries could become speaker, So they just got to

1057
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 1: be a little bit careful. Gosar has sat out of

1058
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 1: calling his name, so has Andy Harris. So you could

1059
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:48,720
Speaker 1: have potentially Speaker Jefferies. However, you could do a motion

1060
01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:50,880
Speaker 1: of ak, which they would do, and then they could

1061
01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:53,000
Speaker 1: reconvene if they realized their math was all wrong, because

1062
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:57,120
Speaker 1: they sell outnumber him. So there are two other votes

1063
01:05:57,320 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 1: that are now outstanding of people that have not decided

1064
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:06,640
Speaker 1: to back Mike Johnson. This should be a no brainer everybody,

1065
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 1: And no, I'm not saying it in a lecturing way.

1066
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:15,240
Speaker 1: We just won an election triumph. Shouldn't it be easy

1067
01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:18,480
Speaker 1: to elect a speaker? No, it's because Congress has not

1068
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:21,800
Speaker 1: been listening to the mandate the American people has been

1069
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:26,960
Speaker 1: giving them. This is a byproduct of all of their behavior,

1070
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,120
Speaker 1: and so when will it get better? That's a great question.

1071
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:32,680
Speaker 1: At the same time, it's very difficult to see how

1072
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:36,240
Speaker 1: President Trump could have navigated this differently. The only play

1073
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 1: that President Trump could have possibly made here is having

1074
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:43,479
Speaker 1: an outsider become Speaker of the House. The only play

1075
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:49,080
Speaker 1: could have been a very stones the size of Saturn play.

1076
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 1: The only other play could have been finding someone that

1077
01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:59,520
Speaker 1: everybody likes. For example, the play could have been Hey,

1078
01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:03,560
Speaker 1: and instead of running the EPA, Lee's Elvin comes in

1079
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 1: as civilian speaker. That would be very interesting. The civilian

1080
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:14,520
Speaker 1: speaker liezel And that's the only other play because nobody

1081
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 1: in this entire wretched, cancer filled, tumor infested institution is

1082
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 1: going to fix it. And so people say, well, what's

1083
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 1: the plan. What's the plan? The plan could have been

1084
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:37,720
Speaker 1: Leezelvin for speaker. Everybody loves Lee. I lovely, the moderates lovely.

1085
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 1: He's from New York. He's a Trump loyalist. He's going

1086
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:42,640
Speaker 1: on to run the EPA, which is a great job

1087
01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:44,920
Speaker 1: for Him's going to be a phenomenal job. But that's

1088
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 1: an interesting one. Definitely would have been something. But again

1089
01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:51,520
Speaker 1: that's the only other play. So it's gonna be Mike

1090
01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:53,880
Speaker 1: Johnson and that's what President Trump wants. And you got

1091
01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 1: you gotta go within the body. Now, whether or not

1092
01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:57,760
Speaker 1: it's going to be on the first ballot the second ballot,

1093
01:07:57,800 --> 01:07:59,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's going to happen on this ballot.

1094
01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:00,800
Speaker 1: I think they're going to make him kind of go

1095
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:03,600
Speaker 1: through the Kevin McCarthy treatment a couple times, make him

1096
01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:05,680
Speaker 1: sweat a little bit. Go on camera, come back. This

1097
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:08,640
Speaker 1: could be a very very late night. Remember this went

1098
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:12,400
Speaker 1: on for days last time. This was a multiple day

1099
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,520
Speaker 1: spectacle last time. So where are we out on the

1100
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:18,000
Speaker 1: vote totals? I can't see that. It's a little grainy.

1101
01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:23,240
Speaker 1: There are five people, six people that they're going to

1102
01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:25,200
Speaker 1: come back to at the end. So once that happens, guys,

1103
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,639
Speaker 1: let me know so we can pivot back and listen

1104
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:32,240
Speaker 1: to it. It's one hundred and sixty three to one

1105
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 1: sixty one right now as they are marching their way

1106
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:39,439
Speaker 1: through the roll call. These roll calls typically take about

1107
01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 1: forty five minutes to an hour if I remember correctly.

1108
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: Remember we became experts in this last year. They went

1109
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:52,720
Speaker 1: through fifteen rounds, went through fifteen rounds of this. So

1110
01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 1: now it's one sixty seven to one sixty one. By

1111
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:58,080
Speaker 1: the way, some people are saying, but Charlie, no, no, no,

1112
01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:00,439
Speaker 1: come on, President Trump doesn't get to pick his speaker.

1113
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 1: There would not be a House majority without President Trump. Well,

1114
01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,439
Speaker 1: how did Chip Roy vote? By the way, the camera

1115
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:11,360
Speaker 1: is on him, I can't hear it. Can we turn

1116
01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:16,200
Speaker 1: the volume on so I can hear what's going on here, Jeff, truly,

1117
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 1: I must have remained silent. So that's another one. There's

1118
01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:27,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a very let's just say, high profile reveal

1119
01:09:27,439 --> 01:09:32,920
Speaker 1: at the end of all this, Roy, standing in the

1120
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:35,720
Speaker 1: middle of the aisle next to Keith self declines to

1121
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,639
Speaker 1: vote on the first nap, calling him his name. Okay,

1122
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 1: Congress has not earned the trust to the grassroots of

1123
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:46,160
Speaker 1: the American people. It's been betrayal out of betrooth. We

1124
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,120
Speaker 1: have a thirty six trillion dollars out a wide open border.

1125
01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:50,920
Speaker 1: They're sending money to Ukraine. The American people are getting

1126
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:53,880
Speaker 1: poor and poor, and this is all a byproduct of that.

1127
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:59,120
Speaker 1: But they would not be a red House of Representatives.

1128
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:01,400
Speaker 1: There would not be a report publican house of representatives

1129
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:05,639
Speaker 1: who was not for President Trump. He pulled that majority

1130
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:12,880

Speaker 15: which is happening right now on Capitol Hill. It appears

1138
01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 15: that it will take more than one ballot for Speaker

1139
01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:46,560
Speaker 15: Mike Johnson to retain the gabble. At this point, a

1140
01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,000
Speaker 15: second vote is already in the plans. I can tell

1141
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,640
Speaker 15: you that several Republicans decided not to speak up at

1142
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:55,439
Speaker 15: all when their name was called in. One Republican in particular,

1143
01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:59,439
Speaker 15: Ralph Norman, the Congressman from South Carolina, when his name

1144
01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:03,280
Speaker 15: was called, he said Jim Jordan as opposed to Mike Johnson.

1145
01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:06,919
Speaker 15: Byron Donalds has also been raised as another potential candidate,

1146
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:11,320
Speaker 15: another congress member saying Byron Donalds when his name was

1147
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 15: called on Let's listen in as we finished this last.

1155
01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:52,800
Speaker 15: like both Mike Johnson and how King Jeffries will fall

1156
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,679

01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:17,800
Speaker 1: That was about Northern Marianna Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico. I

1228
01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:20,719
Speaker 1: actually think Republicans could win Guam. It's my thought crime

1229
01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 1: for the week. They should think we could win Guam.

1230
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:27,720
Speaker 1: I don't think they need to go through the roll call,

1231
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:32,880
Speaker 1: So they go through the people that have not voted. Yeah,

1232
01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:35,960
Speaker 1: they go back. Oh Biggs went to Johnson, Okay.

1233
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:39,800
Speaker 18: M H.

1234
01:17:41,600 --> 01:18:04,439
Speaker 5: Carson, Jefferys, Wow Cloud Johnson a h Cli climb.

Speaker 1: Where is mister paulgo Sar? Are they gonna have Rid Harris?

1239
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:34,000
Speaker 1: They might just do a because if they weren't present,

1240
01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:49,040
Speaker 1: are they gonna get in a fight. It's Lance Gooden's

1241
01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:54,639
Speaker 1: joy all right, Chip john what do you chip? Photo

1242
01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 1: for Johnson?

1243
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,760
Speaker 5: Waltz Johnson?

1244
01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:13,639
Speaker 1: Oh, the National Security Advisor Mike Wills.

1245
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:23,240
Speaker 24: Yeah, if there are any runs see the final tally

1246
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:25,479
Speaker 24: here did not answer the call of the role, they

1247
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:27,840
Speaker 24: may come to the well and vote at this time?

1248
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:32,840
Speaker 1: Is that this is gonna be like this big dramatic.

1249
01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:39,559
Speaker 5: Smart just stay right there, clad Claude.

1250
01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:44,240
Speaker 1: Just that's a much more efficient way to do this.

1251
01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:45,720
Speaker 1: Why do I have to do this whole role call?

1252
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:48,680
Speaker 1: Just come down, fell out the piece of paper and

1253
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:50,519
Speaker 1: go on. It's getting done in fifteen minutes.

1254
01:19:50,800 --> 01:20:01,400
Speaker 6: Clyde did all back to vote from Johnson.

1255
01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:03,839
Speaker 5: Ghosts are Johnson?

1256
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:06,360
Speaker 2: Oh?

1257
01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:08,960
Speaker 1: Ghostar voted for Johnson. So how many defections is that?

1258
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:09,240
Speaker 11: Then?

1259
01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:14,760
Speaker 2: Three?

1260
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:20,560
Speaker 1: So we are going to another round. Who are the

1261
01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 1: three defections? Exactly? Keith self who I don't know who

1262
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:28,280
Speaker 1: that is?

1263
01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:28,840
Speaker 2: And Massey.

1264
01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:33,759
Speaker 1: That's two. Who's the third, Oh, Keith Seth and Norman.

1265
01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:42,240
Speaker 1: I thought Norman voted for him. They're going to declare

1266
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:50,360
Speaker 1: that there is not a consensus for speaker. Probably oh

1267
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:53,000
Speaker 1: Ralph Norman voted for Jim Jordan, got it? So that

1268
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:55,760
Speaker 1: is three he could only lose two, They could only

1269
01:20:55,800 --> 01:20:59,719
Speaker 1: lose one, so he has to now win back two people,

1270
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:02,920
Speaker 1: both Keith Selth and Norman. And my guess is that

1271
01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:06,040
Speaker 1: Norman and self are the most likely, obviously because Massy's

1272
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 1: not going to move. And can we go back to

1273
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:22,680
Speaker 1: the Jasmine Crockett woman. She was more entertaining than this,

1274
01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:27,720
Speaker 1: that was something. All right, We have Jack Pasobic with

1275
01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:29,679
Speaker 1: us as we are waiting for the final call. Jack,

1276
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 1: what is your analysis of what is happening right now

1277
01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:34,200
Speaker 1: on the US House Representatives floor?

1278
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,960
Speaker 9: One here is that you know, we're seeing the same

1279
01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:47,839
Speaker 9: type of pressures that came out with the McCarthy fights,

1280
01:21:47,920 --> 01:21:53,760
Speaker 9: which turned into the initial sort of consensus pick of Johnson.

1281
01:21:54,439 --> 01:21:56,599
Speaker 26: Johnson was, you know, I don't think on anyone's short list.

1282
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,000
Speaker 9: Prior to any of that, a lot of people, you know,

1283
01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 9: thought that party would just sort of stay as speaker

1284
01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:05,680
Speaker 9: to begin with that being said, I think it's very

1285
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:09,760
Speaker 9: clear that at this point Johnson has not done what

1286
01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:14,240
Speaker 9: he needed to do to win over the entire caucus.

1287
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,000
Speaker 26: That's why you're seeing these defections as we are right now,

1288
01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:20,120
Speaker 26: and he's really only there because of.

1289
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:25,320
Speaker 9: Trump's endorsement and so without Trump's endorsement, essentially he could

1290
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:27,840
Speaker 9: be removed at any moment because he just doesn't have

1291
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:31,439
Speaker 9: the staying power on his own the way that you

1292
01:22:31,520 --> 01:22:33,840
Speaker 9: would have seen with potentially some of these speakers in

1293
01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:36,880
Speaker 9: the past that were more you know that has just

1294
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,840
Speaker 9: had more time in leadership, and so you know, there's

1295
01:22:40,040 --> 01:22:43,240
Speaker 9: there's an interesting argument to be made that actually, perhaps

1296
01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:46,400
Speaker 9: Johnson is better for Trump to be there, or for

1297
01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:48,719
Speaker 9: some to have him there, because he's on that tide

1298
01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:51,840
Speaker 9: of the leash. And so we're watching to see how

1299
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:54,960
Speaker 9: this shakes out, because of course we know that if

1300
01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:57,479
Speaker 9: we get the fact, I don't think that we're going

1301
01:22:57,560 --> 01:22:59,680
Speaker 9: to see like a Democrat speak or anything like that.

1302
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:03,560
Speaker 26: Certainly there are some interesting parliamentary trick to watch out for.

1303
01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:09,840
Speaker 1: So Mike Johnson is who is Mike Johnson talk? Let's

1304
01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:12,400
Speaker 1: go full screen so I can see what's going on here. Please, guys,

1305
01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:14,600
Speaker 1: I'm trying to see who Mike Johnson is talking to

1306
01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:18,920
Speaker 1: right now. I don't think it's a staffer, you know.

1307
01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:21,880
Speaker 1: I think that's Dusty Johnson from South Dakota. Blake is

1308
01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:24,960
Speaker 1: that your Is that one of your people? I'm ninety

1309
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:32,400
Speaker 1: percent sure the kind of boyish look glasses. I think

1310
01:23:32,439 --> 01:23:37,400
Speaker 1: that's Dusty Johnson. Rusty Dusty, that right. No one's responding

1311
01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:42,920
Speaker 1: in the chat. So, so Jack, what does The grassroots

1312
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:47,040
Speaker 1: and the conservative base are very much against Mike Johnson.

1313
01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 1: What is your message to them?

1314
01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:56,040
Speaker 21: Look, my message to the base is this is, if

1315
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:59,720
Speaker 21: you don't have the vote, if we don't have the

1316
01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:03,720
Speaker 21: vote to put in another speaker, to get someone else

1317
01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:07,280
Speaker 21: up there, then you've got to look towards a deal.

1318
01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:10,519
Speaker 9: And the deal is this what do you want?

1319
01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:10,960
Speaker 11: Right?

1320
01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 26: Look at it from that perspective, is your in negotiation room?

1321
01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:15,759
Speaker 9: Now you are at the table?

1322
01:24:15,840 --> 01:24:16,200
Speaker 2: What does that?

1323
01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 9: And always tell us not in the room, not the deal. Well,

1324
01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:20,920
Speaker 9: guess what, You're in the room now. And so you've

1325
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:23,560
Speaker 9: got these holdouts out there. So the question is what

1326
01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:25,360
Speaker 9: do we want? Is it wall funding?

1327
01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:26,320
Speaker 26: Is it something?

1328
01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:29,280
Speaker 9: By the way, on H one D, which has been

1329
01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 9: a hot button issue for quite some time now, obviously

1330
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:36,400
Speaker 9: the administration when President Trump is inaugurated here in seventeen days,

1331
01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:38,800
Speaker 9: will have the ability to rule on H one B

1332
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:43,000
Speaker 9: as pertains to some of these some of these rules

1333
01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:47,559
Speaker 9: at DHS to control various levels of salary, but perhaps legislation,

1334
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,479
Speaker 9: you know, a legislative six could be something on the

1335
01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:53,400
Speaker 9: table too, and secure those commits commitment. So you look

1336
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:56,960
Speaker 9: at these holdouts potentially as the proxies of the voice

1337
01:24:57,040 --> 01:25:00,519
Speaker 9: of the base and say what do you want? What

1338
01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:03,240
Speaker 9: deal do you want them to carry.

1339
01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:03,960
Speaker 11: Forward to you?

1340
01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 9: And then you can also be taking to Twitter.

1341
01:25:08,479 --> 01:25:09,599
Speaker 26: I would say, take the phones.

1342
01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:11,519
Speaker 9: I have no idea if they're answering the phones today though,

1343
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,519
Speaker 9: to be honest, really just get your voices out there

1344
01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:17,920
Speaker 9: and then contact these various holdouts and say these are

1345
01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:21,080
Speaker 9: the things that we would be looking for, these are

1346
01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:23,720
Speaker 9: the things that are important to us. And you've got

1347
01:25:23,800 --> 01:25:27,040
Speaker 9: a lot of power right now within the space because look,

1348
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:29,160
Speaker 9: we know the President Trump is coming in. We know

1349
01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 9: we've got the Senate, they're already seated. Now we've got

1350
01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:35,720
Speaker 9: this situation with the speakership. If he wants this thing,

1351
01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 9: he's got to pass through the base. And the other

1352
01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:42,240
Speaker 9: part of it is too, is you must maintain and

1353
01:25:42,320 --> 01:25:47,040
Speaker 9: secure your power. Don't just sit back. We're not doing

1354
01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:49,639
Speaker 9: the thing anymore like you know the Trey Goudy era

1355
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:51,680
Speaker 9: where we just sit back and oh, they've got to

1356
01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:53,200
Speaker 9: taken care of and he's going to go.

1357
01:25:53,320 --> 01:25:55,720
Speaker 26: And look, you know take care of it for us. No, no,

1358
01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:57,400

01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:10,080
Speaker 26: Of the two eighteen that he needed to clinch the gavel.

1380
01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:11,639
Speaker 2: So this is not official yet.

1381
01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:13,840
Speaker 4: The Quirker is going through, but according to my tally,

1382
01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:15,960
Speaker 4: it looks like Johnson is going to fall short of

1383
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,240
Speaker 4: the gavel on this Verston.

1384
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:25,920
Speaker 27: Speaking the truth no one else does the guts to say.

1385
01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:32,519
Speaker 27: The Charlie Kirk Show. Then carefully about Angel Studios. We

1386
01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 27: need to support organizations that share our values and boycott

1387
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,800
Speaker 27: those that don't. If you're tired of being exposed to

1388
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:42,599
Speaker 27: disgusting and degrading content, and if you want good, high

1389
01:27:42,720 --> 01:27:46,720
Speaker 27: quality produced content, family values and Hollywood quality, if you

1390
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:49,920
Speaker 27: want to be inspired, and you want content that increases

1391
01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:53,040
Speaker 27: your faith in God. If you want to replace entertainment

1392
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:56,960
Speaker 27: that exposes your kids to evil with entertainment that amplifies light,

1393
01:27:57,400 --> 01:28:00,680
Speaker 27: then the Angel Guild is right for you. For as

1394
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:03,800
Speaker 27: little as twelve dollars a month, you can ensure that

1395
01:28:04,040 --> 01:28:07,639
Speaker 27: more of these types of shows are made your Angel Studios.

1396
01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:11,439
Speaker 27: Guild membership benefits provide a tremendous value and you get

1397
01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:18,639
Speaker 27: way more than the cost. Nothing will change entertainment more

1398
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:22,160
Speaker 27: than where consumers invest their dollars. Be the first to

1399

01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:52,800
Speaker 1: the House of Representatives here. I want to narrate over

1406
01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:54,960

Speaker 1: go picture and picture. So Speaker Johnson or mister Johnson

1409
01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:06,600
Speaker 1: right now, mister Johnson is two vot vote short, so

1410
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:08,720
Speaker 1: they could call a recess and call it a day.

1411
01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:11,840
Speaker 1: They could go right back into another round of voting.

1412
01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:14,759
Speaker 1: Let's go full screen here so I can continue to narrate.

1413
01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:18,760
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson is doing a beamline. So Mike Johnson right now,

1414
01:29:19,120 --> 01:29:20,679
Speaker 1: he is what he's doing. He's going to go find

1415
01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:23,840
Speaker 1: his staff. Staff is not allowed on the House floor

1416
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,880
Speaker 1: during all these votes, So Mike Johnson is going straight

1417
01:29:26,920 --> 01:29:30,280
Speaker 1: to his staff, and boom, he exits the special chamber.

1418
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:32,360
Speaker 1: He's going to go meet with his staff. He's going

1419
01:29:32,439 --> 01:29:38,000
Speaker 1: to go into the speaker's balcony and have a little

1420
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 1: bit of a pow wow, a little bit of a

1421
01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:43,479
Speaker 1: meeting to try to work on the two defectors. That's

1422
01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:48,360
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green next to Thomas Massey. Thomas Massey, who

1423
01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:50,200
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people try to attack him.

1424
01:29:50,720 --> 01:29:53,360
Speaker 1: I say two defectors because Massy's not going to move.

1425
01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:57,040
Speaker 1: I like Thomas Massey. I've always liked Thomas Massey and

1426
01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,640
Speaker 1: nothing can change my mind. I'm sorry. He's an independent

1427
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:03,439
Speaker 1: freethinker who loves liberty. He just recently lost his wife.

1428
01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:05,920
Speaker 1: By the way, by the way, he looks great with

1429
01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:08,400
Speaker 1: a goatee. I gotta be honest. He looks really good.

1430
01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:12,320
Speaker 1: So I say that, by the way, was an unblemished

1431
01:30:12,320 --> 01:30:17,679
Speaker 1: speaker and record of heterosexuality high. But he looks great. Jack,

1432
01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:22,040
Speaker 1: Jack am Iira. Jack said something in the uh in

1433
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 1: the chat too, so so Jack, welcome to the program again. Jack,

1434
01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:31,120
Speaker 1: what is your analysis here of how things are going

1435
01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:31,519
Speaker 1: to proceed?

1436
01:30:31,680 --> 01:30:34,160
Speaker 9: My camera here just well, I did have the comment

1437
01:30:34,240 --> 01:30:38,040
Speaker 9: because I saw I saw Thomas Matsey on I guess

1438
01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:40,800
Speaker 9: Matt Gates is an augural program last night, and he

1439
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:42,960
Speaker 9: dropped the glasses, he's.

1440
01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:46,920
Speaker 26: Got the goatee, he's hand I think he looks maxing.

1441
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:48,479
Speaker 1: I think I think this is the right.

1442
01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:50,759
Speaker 26: I was like, Thomas Matthew, that's Thomas Matthey.

1443
01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:51,320
Speaker 23: Look at it.

1444
01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:53,439
Speaker 9: So wait a minute, that is Tomy's haircut there.

1445
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:55,559
Speaker 26: He looks great. He clearly looks macing.

1446
01:30:55,680 --> 01:30:56,720
Speaker 5: You know, New Year, New Y.

1447
01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,639
Speaker 9: So I guess he's uh, I guess he's going down

1448
01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:02,000
Speaker 9: that road, and and God bless them for doing so.

1449
01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:04,760
Speaker 9: We should all we should all be focused on on

1450
01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 9: making sure that we're all healthy and getting there on

1451
01:31:09,080 --> 01:31:13,200
Speaker 9: in the new year. One of the big pieces that

1452
01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:17,000
Speaker 9: I think looking here now is that it's it's very clear.

1453
01:31:17,160 --> 01:31:20,160
Speaker 9: So I mean, you look at this, Johnson only has

1454
01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:24,240
Speaker 9: a one vote majority over over Jeffrey's.

1455
01:31:24,280 --> 01:31:25,040
Speaker 26: I mean, this shows you.

1456
01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:27,760
Speaker 9: But one of the biggest pieces that we need to

1457
01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:30,000
Speaker 9: folk be focused on big picture here for the Trump

1458
01:31:30,040 --> 01:31:33,120
Speaker 9: administration coming in is that the majority is so slim,

1459
01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:36,960
Speaker 9: it is so absolutely slim. So when it comes to

1460
01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:40,640
Speaker 9: these big ticket items.

1461
01:31:40,479 --> 01:31:42,920
Speaker 26: That the administration wants to push forward.

1462
01:31:42,640 --> 01:31:44,760
Speaker 9: That whoever, and I do think that Johnson will end

1463
01:31:44,840 --> 01:31:45,240
Speaker 9: up getting it.

1464
01:31:45,360 --> 01:31:45,560
Speaker 18: I do.

1465
01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:48,599
Speaker 9: I hope that there are some great concessions for the base.

1466
01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:50,960
Speaker 9: I think there's a great package that's put together. But

1467
01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:54,160
Speaker 9: looking forward, there's going to be some big fights and

1468
01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:58,160
Speaker 9: there's only going to be a few folks that it

1469
01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:01,840
Speaker 9: takes to hold up so many of these things. And

1470
01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:04,680
Speaker 9: I really think that that's going to be something the

1471
01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,240
Speaker 9: stuff that you're seeing today, basically, folks, when it comes

1472
01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:09,320
Speaker 9: to the question of Johnson, it's going to be this

1473
01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:12,360
Speaker 9: way for every single big fight over the next two years.

1474
01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:16,759
Speaker 1: Jack and closing here, let's say we get Speaker Johnson.

1475
01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:18,840
Speaker 1: It seems that that is the way this is going.

1476
01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:22,200
Speaker 1: It is inevitability. He's within two votes. I think he'll

1477
01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:25,080
Speaker 1: clean up. Mister I don't know anything about the self

1478
01:32:25,160 --> 01:32:28,200
Speaker 1: guy or Norman. What does this mean for President Trump

1479
01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:30,400
Speaker 1: and his agenda and what can we learn from prior

1480
01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:32,200
Speaker 1: mistakes of Congress.

1481
01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:38,320
Speaker 9: Look, it shows you that Mike Johnson, in the time

1482
01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:40,639
Speaker 9: that he's been Speaker, the short time, the brief time,

1483
01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:43,639
Speaker 9: he needs to do more for the base.

1484
01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:45,760
Speaker 26: He needs to do more to show the base and

1485
01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:46,800
Speaker 26: show everyone that.

1486
01:32:46,920 --> 01:32:49,880
Speaker 9: He's on board with the president agenda, and what he

1487
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:52,880
Speaker 9: really should be doing is becoming a champion for the

1488
01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:56,479
Speaker 9: President's agenda there in the House. But President Trump gave

1489
01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:59,759
Speaker 9: him this job, and it's his job in turn.

1490
01:33:00,040 --> 01:33:02,720
Speaker 26: To reflect and fortify.

1491
01:33:02,439 --> 01:33:06,559
Speaker 9: And deliver on the mandate that was given to President

1492
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:10,280
Speaker 9: Trump and the Republicans writ large in Congress in the

1493
01:33:10,439 --> 01:33:12,519
Speaker 9: past election. One of the things that I'm going to

1494
01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:14,599
Speaker 9: say upfront, by the way, that I'd love for Mike

1495
01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:17,240
Speaker 9: Johnson to do, whether it's today, whether it's tomorrow, that

1496
01:33:17,280 --> 01:33:20,439
Speaker 9: he retains the speakership and sit down with Mayor Bowser

1497
01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:22,920
Speaker 9: and I. We need to see a real security plan

1498
01:33:23,040 --> 01:33:26,799
Speaker 9: for this inauguration. I'm talking National Guard, I'm talking everything.

1499
01:33:26,920 --> 01:33:28,680
Speaker 9: We need to see it, and we need to see

1500
01:33:28,720 --> 01:33:29,120
Speaker 9: it fast.

1501
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:31,920
Speaker 1: And you and I are both going to be there.

1502
01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:35,000
Speaker 1: So this is playtime is over. I think you're exactly right,

1503
01:33:35,200 --> 01:33:37,320
Speaker 1: they're going to go to another ballot here. I would

1504
01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:41,000
Speaker 1: bet very good money that Mike Johnson will be Speaker

1505
01:33:41,040 --> 01:33:45,479
Speaker 1: of the House by tonight. Email us Freedom at Charliekirk
