1 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: So Biden, well, first of all, was humiliating on such 2 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,079 Speaker 1: a large scale. I mean, not even the King of 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: Jordan would meet with him, Not even Malmouth, a bas 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 1: Palestinian authority, would meet with him. The no world leader 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: over there, Saudi's they dissed the Biden administration too. They 6 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: don't want to meet. I mean, how embarrassing that they don't. 7 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: Why don't they want to meet with the President of 8 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: the United States. You know, we are literally now with 9 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: i Ran threatening to get involved itself. You know, we're 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: worried about a two front war. Lebanon and his Bollah 11 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 1: in the north. They've evacuated twenty eight cities in Israel 12 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: on that northern border, and of course Gaza on the south. 13 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: And now you have the threat of Iran coming in. 14 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: By the way, if that happens, the entire region could 15 00:00:52,520 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: literally be at war in no time. James Cally, you 16 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: have the right to remain silent, and you might want 17 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: to use it. 18 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: This is the Sean Hannity Show. 19 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: Twenty five to the top of the hour, toll free 20 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: on numbers eight hundred and nine point one. Sean, if 21 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program, I 22 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: know what I would do in Congress. And we'll check 23 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: in with Congressmanship Roy in a minute, because the boat 24 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: today was pretty much the same as yesterday. If I 25 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: was in Congress, I don't know. I wouldn't be taking 26 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: weekends off. Let's start there. If you don't have appropriations done. 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: I wouldn't take the month of August off. That's let's 28 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: start there. If I took off as much as these 29 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: people in Congress to get off, and I know they 30 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: have constituent services and so on and so forth anyway, 31 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: but that's neither here nor there at this point. But 32 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: I would get everybody in a room, tell them to 33 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: leave their phones, make sure everyone goes in phone free. 34 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: Maybe you womb them, whatever you have to do to 35 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: make sure that they don't have a phone. And I 36 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: would make the room, you know, have bathrooms in the 37 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: room so people can go to the bathroom. 38 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: Then need to go to the bathroom. 39 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: Then I would just lock the door and I'd stay 40 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: in there until they came out and said, you know, 41 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: when the white smoke comes up, that they've got a speaker, 42 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: and let him stay in there and they can order pizza. 43 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what else is good to eat. Wendy's. 44 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 2: They're gonna need a lot of coffee. 45 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: They haven't worked coffee, Coca cola, you know, all the 46 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: stuff you know that keep people awake. 47 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: Maybe even put cots in the room. I don't know. 48 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: And you don't come out until you're done. Just like 49 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: they pick a new pope. You know, black smoke nobody's 50 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: chosen yet, isn't the black Yeah, when white smoke comes up, 51 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: that means they found a pontiff. 52 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure that.

Today Phoenix on Hannity dot 70 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: com eight hundred nine four one show, And we're going 71 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: to get back to this. Biden, by the way, announce 72 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: they's sending one hundred million dollars to the people who 73 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: voted Hamas into power. You know, they were voted into power, right. 74 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it was a free and fair election, 75 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: but they were voted into power. And Biden is now 76 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: saying he's going to send one hundred million dollars. And anyway, 77 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: because they had their one and only election, that was 78 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: in two thousand and six, after Israel voluntarily gave up 79 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,559 Speaker 1: control of Gaza. Since then, rockets have been fired into 80 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: neighboring Israeli cities and towns. Ever since I've been to 81 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: those those border cities. You can see but the naked 82 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: eye Gaza's right out there in the horizon not far away. 83 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: It takes a rocket. They fired thirteen seconds in the 84 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: border town of Storoat, where I've been there. We went 85 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: to the underground bunker playgrounds where kids playing. Why because 86 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: you can't even if you get an alarm that went 87 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: off in time, you can't get a kid out of 88 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: a playground and into a bunker. And enough time I 89 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: went to the I saw ten thousand rockets fired into 90 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,559 Speaker 1: that one city in ten years. I mean, how much? 91 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: How much? 92 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: How much longer you can Israel allow this to be 93 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: a staging area? How much longer? Anyway, So Biden is 94 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: offering one hundred million dollars this giveaway. You know that 95 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: he's going to be giving to the Palestinians. Let me 96 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: tell you that one thing is certain is they're not 97 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: going to get a penny out of this. That money 98 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: will go straight into Hamas's pocket, and nobody's going to 99 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: stop that from happening. He announced this agreement to allow 100 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: humanitarian aid to move from Egypt to Gaza, confirmed one 101 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: hundred million in US funding for assistance to civilians. Well, 102 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: the US has given hundreds of millions of dollars, and 103 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: they was supposed to build schools and hospitals and infrastructure. 104 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: And I've been in the tunnels, buried deep underneath the ground, 105 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: with sophisticated architecture, tunnel making experts, with Israeli money spent 106 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: on cement, American money spent on cement and electricity. They 107 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: even have a little rail system inside these tunnels, and 108 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: they have hundreds of them. And now we learned today 109 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 1: according to the Jewish news syndicate, the PAS to immediately 110 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: reward families of October seventh terrorists with nearly three million 111 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: dollars and Biden's going to give them money. Just when 112 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: you think the world can't get any sicker. All right, 113 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: I know a lot of you upset. We haven't hit 114 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: it yet. The vote, you know, pretty much the same 115 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: as yesterday as it relates to the battle for speaker. 116 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: Chip Roy is with those congressmen from the great state 117 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: of Texas, Sir, how are you. 118 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 3: I'm doing great, Seohn, And thanks for that update on 119 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 3: the funding debate going on. We've gotten updates about what 120 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 3: the administration is requesting and like at concerning I mean, 121 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 3: it's one of the reasons why I want us to 122 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 3: figure this out and get a good speaker. You know, 123 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 3: they're looking for you know, probably one hundred billion plus 124 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 3: dollars Taiwan, partly for Ukraine Israel border, which will just 125 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 3: fund more agents to process more people, and then humanitarian aid, 126 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 3: which you know will end up going to Amas and 127 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 3: going to the Palestinians. So what they want should be 128 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 3: a non starter. We're going to have to get our 129 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 3: crap together here and make sure we're going to push 130 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: a responsible bill. 131 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: I'm not reacting to every single second of the how 132 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: the sausage is made where you work in that swamp 133 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: that sewerd known as DC, but I will tell you 134 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: that the patience of the American people is running thin. 135 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: And I don't know, maybe I'm old fashioned. Ship and 136 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: I grew up the son of a prison guard my mom. 137 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: And I grew up the son of a family corp 138 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: probation guy and a waiter my dad. And I was 139 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: a paper boy at eight. I was washing dishes by 140 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: hand in a restaurant three four days a week when 141 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: I was twelve. Never stop working my whole life. There's 142 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: a part of me that says, you don't take days off, 143 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: and you don't stop working until you get the job done. 144 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 2: And right now, with all that's going on in the world. 145 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: You know, I would like to think that the speaker, 146 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: that the Republicans, with their very limited margin that they have, 147 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: would put a side petty differences and elect a Speaker 148 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: of the House so the people's House can be open again. 149 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: And I wouldn't leave the room until you guys finally 150 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: decided who that person is. I'd like it to be 151 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan. But if you guys pick someone else, that's 152 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: up to you. 153 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: Guys. 154 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, Sean, you and I are very much on the 155 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 3: same page as we wind the clock a little bit. 156 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: I did not think, and I publicly said that I 157 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 3: did not believe we should leave town when we didn't 158 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 3: have our appropriations job completed in July. I did not 159 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 3: think we should leave for the August work period at home, 160 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 3: as much as I would want to be with my 161 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 3: constituents in Texas, I did not think that we should 162 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 3: leave our conference meeting last week without unity and without 163 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 3: forcing through and getting a person we would all rally 164 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 3: behind on the floor, and I worked to try to 165 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 3: accomplish that. Now, to be clear, that proposal that I 166 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,599 Speaker 3: put forward was rejected twice. Now, all right, maybe you 167 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 3: know it was rejected by the way. 168 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: That was a great proposal. You don't leave until you 169 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: know you have a speaker and then you have the vote. 170 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 3: Correct And so it was rejected by frankly, including some 171 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 3: people who aren't supporting Gems, some who are so now 172 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 3: here we are. We've had two boats on the floor, 173 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: and that alone is not the end of the world. 174 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 3: But the fact is we've had two boats on the 175 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 3: floor where we do not have a speaker, and now 176 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 3: we're having to work through it. Now. I want to 177 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 3: be clear. I support Jim Okay, and I support Jim 178 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: throughout the time that he is running for speaker. But 179 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 3: we've got to figure this out and we've got to 180 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 3: do it the right way. Okay, we've got people who Frankly, 181 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 3: let's remind the clock the last January. You'll remember, as 182 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: we were going through that effort, I was trying to 183 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 3: work in good faith with Kevin to offer solutions. We 184 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 3: were meeting in rooms round the clock through the night, 185 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 3: trying to come to an agreement on how we can 186 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 3: make this place work for the people. And you and 187 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 3: I have said this on your radio show before. We 188 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 3: passed some really good boats, the border. 189 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: Bill HR two. 190 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know these were strong bills because we were 191 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: working together. Credit to Kevin were he was honoring most 192 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 3: of the commitments. We were working together, but we didn't 193 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: do everything we should have done. Our spending was not 194 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 3: where it needed to be, so we went off the rails. 195 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: Here we are by the way, you had a plan 196 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: that would have extended the time to yet all the 197 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: appropriations done, and you wouldn't have had to vacate the chair. 198 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: It would have been accomplished by now, and then your 199 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: budgets would be done and then they would be in 200 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: the hands of the US Senate where it belongs. 201 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and we should have done that. And 202 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 3: so now I would ask of the twenty or twenty 203 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 3: two in our conference who are not supporting Jim, why 204 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 3: and what do you want to do?

Because they're mad, and they're 220 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: mad about the motion to vacate, which I didn't support. 221 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: I didn't support it either. I thought it was a 222 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 2: bad idea and. 223 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 3: They're crying in their milk about it now instead of 224 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 3: just doing what we could do to you, night around, 225 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 3: Jim and move forward. 226 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: By the way, the next speaker is only going to 227 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: be speaker fourteen and a half months. 228 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 3: Well that we would certainly have a vote next year. 229 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 2: And they don't like it the job. 230 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: If it's Jim or whoever, then you can get rid 231 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: of them, correct. 232 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 3: And so my ask of them right now is what 233 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: do you want to do? Where do you want to go? 234 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 3: And I'm here and I'm not going anywhere. And by 235 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 3: the way, last week I didn't leave town. Everybody left 236 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 3: town on that Tuesday after the vacate. I stuck around. 237 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 3: I sat around trying to come up with a model 238 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 3: to help us figure it out. My son, my kids 239 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 3: who in their school years, they were you know, Dad, 240 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 3: when you coming home like, I've got a job to do, Guys, 241 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 3: I didn't leave town. I don't think we should leave 242 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 3: town this weekend. I don't think we should do anything 243 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 3: until we get our damn job done. But we've got 244 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 3: to sit up here and do what the American people 245 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 3: ask us to do. And I will say this about 246 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 3: Jim Jordan. He has always worked to do what he 247 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: said he would do when he came to this town. 248 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 3: And I'd like to know those who are not supporting him. 249 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 3: If you're not going to support Jim, you go to 250 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: the microphone and you tell the American people, why don't. 251 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: We'd better be careful because I dare to ask a 252 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 1: few questions like is it true you're not supporting Jim? 253 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: Whose I have sources saying, you know, the simple question 254 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: during this time, is it an imperative that the people's 255 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: house be open? If you're not going to support him, 256 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: how do you plan and when do you plan on 257 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: opening the House? Would you ever, under any circumstances vote 258 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: with Democrats to pick a speaker or align with Democrats? 259 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: Do you think there's anything inappropriate or could be perceived 260 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: as quote pressure by asking that. 261 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 3: I don't think so. But I'm somebody who tends to 262 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 3: be more of an open book. I'm not afraid of angel. 263 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: I'm an open book, people said had Any. I didn't 264 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: call a single person except my sources. I talk to 265 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: three people. By the way, you happen to be one 266 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: of the three. 267 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 3: Well, it's something that's really important here. I work for 268 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 3: my constituent. I work with my colleagues, and my colleagues 269 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 3: need to get over themselves when they're worried about how 270 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 3: we're Oh, what are you saying to me? And whatever. Look, 271 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: I am always honest with my colleagues. I'm happy to 272 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 3: work with them. I will work round the clock for 273 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 3: the good of this country. But at the end of 274 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 3: the day, I have to follow the Constitution, the will 275 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 3: of the people that I represent, to do my job 276 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 3: in a republican form of government which I represent them, 277 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 3: and they have priority, cutting spending, securing the border, stopping 278 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 3: endless wars, without knowing exactly what our mission is, restoring order, 279 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 3: ending weaponization, checking the Bible administration. It's not to just 280 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 3: simply continue to rubber stamp what this god forsaken town 281 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 3: in k Street and lobbyists want to do. That's part 282 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: of what to play right now, and we're going to 283 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 3: keep rocking the boat for it. But we got to 284 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: get our jobs done. 285 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: Can you can you suggest that everybody get in a 286 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: room and stay there and not leave, have breakfast, lunch, 287 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: and dinner together, and maybe you can even go back 288 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: to the Constitutional Convention after a month of what zero movement? 289 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: Wasn't it? 290 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: Ben Franklin, correct me if my history is wrong here 291 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: in seventeen eighty seven that said, well, maybe we should 292 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: start each stay with a prayer because it sounds like 293 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: you guys need prayer. 294 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 3: It certainly is something that I will say this the 295 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 3: Freedom Caucus. Guys, we start every meeting with prayer. We 296 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 3: end every meeting in prayer. There's a lot of people 297 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 3: up here who are involved in prayer. I think the 298 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 3: Republican Conference needs to get together. They need to pretty 299 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 3: much lay down their arms and say, okay, guys, what 300 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 3: are we going to do. We've got a good guy 301 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 3: here and Jim Jordan who ought to be the speaker. 302 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 3: We have two hundred votes for Jim for speaker. What 303 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 3: do we need to do here to unite and go 304 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 3: win over the next fourteen months. He's an able communicator, 305 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 3: he's a team builder, He's worked across the aisle. He 306 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 3: supported mcarloks. 307 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you this. You talked to your colleagues. 308 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: Did they not realize how bad this is? Looking down 309 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: to the American people? 310 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 3: I think some do. I think some less. So I 311 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: think and look at the end of. 312 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: The day, maybe some of them don't care. Some of 313 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: them are retiring, they don't care. 314 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 3: There is some of that, Sean, and look for me. 315 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 3: I believe that if we get our craft together, do 316 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 3: our job, the American people will remember what we get 317 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: done and results and holding the line against Biden and 318 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 3: dealing with Ukraine and Israel and reducing spending and secure 319 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 3: in our border, the things we know we need to 320 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 3: do in the coming year. And so that's our job, 321 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 3: and that's what I'm going to spend all my time 322 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 3: with lentless to do it. But some of these folks 323 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 3: have got to stop holding on to power and personalities 324 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 3: and worried about what you know, whose feelings are hurt. 325 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 3: We have a job to do, and if you don't 326 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 3: think Jim Jordan can do the job, go to the 327 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 3: microphone and say that. Otherwise, stop your dan belly aching, 328 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 3: because otherwise it's just personal and petty, and nobody in 329 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 3: America's lives are going to be be made better by 330 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: petty politics. I will say, you know, I'm not always agreed. 331 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 3: I didn't always agree with Kevin, didn't always agree with 332 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 3: you know, other people I work with. But at some 333 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 3: point here we have to actually do our job. And 334 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 3: I will spend every waking moment here trying to work 335 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 3: and reach my and out and say what do we 336 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 3: need to do to solve the problems for the American people, 337 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 3: because I promise you the Democrats dam well aren't going 338 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 3: to do it. They're totally fine with open borders, totally 339 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 3: fine with debt, totally tied, fine with more deficits spending, 340 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 3: totally fine with blank checks to Ukraine, totally fine with 341 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 3: siding with the freaking uh, you know, Hamas instead of Israel. 342 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 3: And we've got to stand up against those things united, 343 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 3: and we've got to do that now. I would prefer 344 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 3: that we unit around Jim Jordan right now and get 345 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: it done and do it tomorrow. 346 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: All right, Chip Roy, Congressman, Great State of Texas.

They were elected 349 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: to lead. One thing that would not two things that 350 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: would not be acceptable to me is a band aid 351 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: short term. Well, let's empower the speaker pro tem or 352 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: to you know, go into business with hikeem Jeffers and 353 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: the Democrats.

It 357 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 3: would be a bad president to set We are only 358 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 3: in the past. We've only done that when we had 359 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 3: a duly elected speaker, we had a president a speaker 360 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 3: protempt for emergencies, we should not empower somebody in a 361 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 3: temporary basis. We should do our job and not leave 362 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 3: town until we choose the speaker of the House. 363 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: I second that motion, and I give back the remainder 364 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: of my time.
