1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,640 Speaker 1: Well, we got a deal done in the House. That 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: is the headline. The question is how was the deal 3 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: done and how did it turn out to be so 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: different than what was originally going to happen. It is 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: the art of the deal, that's the best way I 6 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: can describe it. And it was a deal that certainly 7 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: was going to put us in a better place than 8 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: we were before because many Conservatives were willing to stand 9 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 1: up and fight hard. The Maga revolt, that's how it's 10 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: being described in the press right now. Slash the original 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: one thousand, five hundred and forty seven page spending bill 12 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: all the way down to just one hundred and eighteen 13 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: pages this Friday, and the House bill to a verta 14 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: government shutdown was trimmed by one thousand, three hundred and 15 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:56,639 Speaker 1: fifty nine pages after conservatives said, no, we are not 16 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: going to have this massive expansion of government and it 17 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: can continuing resolution and we're not going to have the 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: pork barrel spending in the cr as Well, House Speaker 19 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: Mike Johnson's original measure was filled with pork, There's no 20 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: doubt about it. Now. He also had to work a 21 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: deal because he had to deal with Republicans and Democrats, 22 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: and that's a very tough spot to be in. I 23 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: want to be clear about that, and I'm going to 24 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,919 Speaker 1: explain more about why I say that in a moment. 25 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: But the reduction in size underscores what I would say 26 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: is that failure by the pork barrel spenders in DC 27 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: who wanted to pass a massive spending bill with Democrats 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,479 Speaker 1: support that few had even read before members were asked 29 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: to vote on it, and that is a problem. There 30 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: is an appetite for government reform right now. There's an 31 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: appetite for reducing the size of government. It's very clear 32 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: that there was a mandate for that in this last election. 33 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: There is a huge appetite in people supporting and advocating 34 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: for DOGE. That is going to be streamlining and changing 35 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: how we do and run and spend our money in 36 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: the US. That's being done by Elon Musk and by 37 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 1: the vic Ramaswamie at the leadership of Donald Trump. Now 38 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: you put all that together and Democrats are angry. They're 39 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: angry at Elon Musk, and they're angry at MAGA. They're 40 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: angry at Conservatives for standing up to the government waste 41 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: and abuse. How angry are they let me play for you. 42 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: Rosa Delaro, who lost her mind on the floor of 43 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: the House. Is she's angry as she describes it, that 44 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: there is some man who is elected by no one 45 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: who is now giving marching orders to the House and 46 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: the Republicans to shut down the government. As she described it, 47 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: take a listen to the purpled haired Democrat from Connecticut. 48 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: We are on the cusp of an agreement to move 49 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: this country forward. But two days ago, a multi billionaire 50 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 2: with apparently no working knowledge of our government or of appropriations, 51 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 2: someone who is a self appointed President of the United States, 52 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 2: Elon Musk, issued a marching order for House Republicans to 53 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 2: go against their own elected leadership. Shut down the government. 54 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: Shut down the government. House Republicans are responsible for any 55 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 2: harm and uncertainty brought upon the American people, and should 56 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: some get their wish for a month long government shut down, 57 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: they will be responsible for cleaning up their mess come 58 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: inauguration day. Indeed, we are in completely unprecedented times when 59 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: someone who has no knowledge of government, who has no 60 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: knowledge of an appropriations process, who is external to the 61 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 2: House of Representatives, can make his weight felt here in 62 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: turning what was a bill that was on its way, 63 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 2: a bipartisan bill, a bi camer bill, was on its 64 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 2: way to achieving its goal of keeping the US government open. 65 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 2: And the goal actually is providing services to American citizens, 66 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: to working families, middle class families, vulnerable families, where our 67 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 2: responsibility lies. The world's richest man reaping billions in government 68 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 2: contracts is calling the shots in the Republican Party at 69 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: the behest of the world's richest man, who no one 70 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 2: voted for. The United States Congress has been thrown into 71 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 2: pandemonian It leads you to to the question of who 72 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 2: is in charge. I thought that there was a Republican 73 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 2: majority in this body, not a President Musk majority. 74 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: Now let's talk about what she said. Quote the self 75 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 1: appointed President of the United States, Elon Musk Is, he'd 76 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: a marching order for House Republicans to shut the government down. 77 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: What he made, what he actually did was he said, no, 78 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm calling out the abuse of power. I'm calling out 79 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: the fact that you've got a bill that no one's read. 80 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: There's one five and forty seven pages long, filled with 81 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: port Belle spending, and I want to reduce it. And 82 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: we did and condensed it into one hundred and eighteen pages, 83 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: and excluded the extreme amount of pork that Johnson allowed. 84 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 1: By the way, in the original bill, Elon Musk is 85 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: not the President of the United States of America. But 86 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: what Elon Musk did was give a voice to the 87 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: voiceless in this country and those that don't have the 88 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: type of power to get the word out that he 89 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: clearly does. And the American people clearly agreed with him, 90 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: and the American people acted, and the American people called 91 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: their congressman, and the American people got rid literally, this 92 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: is not exaggeration, got rid of one thousand, three hundred 93 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: and fifty nine pages of government waste, abuse and fraud. 94 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: That is incredible. So was it worth it? Yes? Was 95 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: it anarchy? No? Was it Elon Musk giving power to 96 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: the people to make sure that the people were able 97 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: to do what they need to do and saying no 98 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: to mass suspending. Yes. Now, here's what you need to 99 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: know about what they have passed on the House side. 100 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: And I'm going to get to the Senate in a moment, 101 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: because the Senate is controlled, as you know, by the Democrats. 102 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: Right now, the bill will fund the government until March fourteenth. 103 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: It also includes disaster relief and farm aid, which is 104 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: very important. The builders does not include an extension of 105 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: the debt limit, which President elect Donald Trump demanded. That 106 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: will place Johnson's reelection on January third for Speaker in 107 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: a very precarious position. I want to be clear, I 108 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: support Speaker Johnson, and I think we would get a 109 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: much more liberal speaker if Speaker Johnson is pushed out. 110 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: And I don't like what we're doing right now. Every 111 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: time somebody because there's such a thin margin for Republicans 112 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: that there's a lot of power now given to certain 113 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: members in Congress, and I don't like where we're headed 114 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: with this because if you don't like your one way 115 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: or the way things are going, the fact that you 116 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: can get rid of another speaker, I think is a 117 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: very bad decision. I also think that Speaker Johnson has 118 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: done a very good job, and I think you will 119 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: serve Donald Trump very well, much better than Kevin McCarthy 120 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: would have ever done. And if he's not careful, what's 121 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: going to happen is you're going to end up getting 122 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: a much more liberal member of the body who would 123 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: end up becoming the Speaker of the House because they'll 124 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: get some votes from Democrats to do it more than likely, 125 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: and then you'll lose an actual conservative in Speaker Johnson. 126 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: That's where we are now with this. Now, let me 127 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: also put it this way. Punch Bowl News reported on 128 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: the politics the latest proposed measure, saying this Johnson is 129 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: now pushing a short term funding bill that keeps federal 130 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: agencies open until mid March. The bill would include one 131 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: hundred billion in disaster aid for the hurricane battery Southeast 132 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: and other states. There's also thirty billion in aid for 133 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: farmers and a one year extension of the current agriculture policy. 134 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: The measure will be taken up under suspicion according to 135 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: senior GOP lawmakers and AIDS meeting, meaning it needs a 136 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: two third majority to pass. There'll be one vote instead 137 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: of individual votes on the component parts as Johnson's first envisioned. Now, 138 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: what we know is what happened. What we know now, 139 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: it's very clear this has past the House, and it's 140 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: past the House, and it now is the sentence. And 141 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about that vote obviously in a moment. 142 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: But what I want you to understand is this Speaker 143 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: Johnson was able to get this bill to drop significantly 144 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,359 Speaker 1: in size and save you the taxpayers, hundreds of billions 145 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: of dollars. The problem now is you're now going to 146 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: have a debt ceiling vote come early next year, and 147 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: that's going to be under the Republican leadership and under 148 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. There are many people that didn't want that, 149 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: don't like it, didn't want to have to deal with this, 150 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: and that's a political issue that we're going to obviously 151 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: have to deal with. So let's talk about the fallout 152 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: now of this deal. There is clearly blood in the 153 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: water over this deal, and the sharks are circling around 154 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: Speaker Johnson because of the fighting and the pork and 155 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: everything that's in this bill. Now, I want to be clear, 156 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: when you have this razor thin the majority as he does, 157 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: it gives a lot of yahoos in Congress a lot 158 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: of power, and it makes you have to listen to 159 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: more people and to give people more things they want 160 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: to make sure you get their vote. Otherwise then you 161 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: have a government shut down and it's on you, the 162 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: Republican Party. I want to make it very clear that 163 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: I still believe that Speaker Johnson is a conservative, and 164 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: I also want to be clear that I think he's 165 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: probably the most conservative that we could get elected that 166 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: would have the votes to be elected as a Speaker 167 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: of the House. I don't like what we're doing right now, 168 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: which every time there's a vote on saying significant, there's 169 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,719 Speaker 1: this litanus test. It's like, well, if you don't give 170 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: me what I want, then I'm going to get you 171 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: out of your office and your job. And I don't 172 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: like a speaker being held hostage by his own party. 173 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: But that's the road that Republicans are going down right now. 174 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: And I'm saying it again, I think you have to 175 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: be extremely careful. You have to be very, very, very 176 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: very careful, because this is what the Democratic Party does 177 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: better than us. They don't eat their own. We keep 178 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: eating our own. And you have to understand that there's 179 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: ideals and then there's the reality of the numbers. And 180 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: if you look at the majority and just how thin 181 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: it is right now, we're lucky to have the majority 182 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: in the House, to be clear, We're very lucky, and 183 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: it is a razor thin majority. What Speaker Johnson is 184 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: having to walk into every day where any one or 185 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: two or three Congressmen can hold him hostage every single 186 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: day of the week, on any issue is not a 187 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: healthy place for us to be. And it's not Democrats 188 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: that are holding him hostage, it is Republicans that are 189 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: holding him hostage. This is an extremely hard job, especially 190 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: when you have Republicans there are, in essence willing to 191 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: walk in every day different ones and blackmail him. Now, 192 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 1: the deal he negotiated with the Democrats failed to get 193 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: a vote amid Republican outrage because of what he was 194 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: having to do, which was to give pork. He had 195 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: no other option but to do that or to have 196 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: a government shut down. Now, I want to be clear 197 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: about what did and didn't happen here because some people 198 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: are blaming Johnson for all this and they don't understand 199 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: the reality of the situation. The reason why we got 200 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: this bill reduced by thirteen hundred plus pages is because 201 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: the American people started calling not Johnson, but they're actual 202 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: members of Congress, and the actual members of Congress for 203 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: feeling the heat. They were afraid they were going to 204 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: get in trouble or be primaried, and so then they 205 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: decided to do the right thing that allowed Johnson to 206 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: get a different deal done. When you and there's people 207 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: that are ignorant. They don't understand Johnson does not have 208 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: near as much power as you think when it comes 209 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: to counting, because you still have to count to two 210 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: eighteen to pass something, and Johnson was put in an 211 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: impossible situation. And one of the good things that came 212 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: out of Elon Musk's tweets and the Vicaramasom's tweets and 213 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's tweets is that there was so much pressure 214 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: put on members of Congress to do the right thing 215 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: that that's what happened. This was not Speaker Johnson's fault. 216 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: And if you think that it is, you need to 217 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: understand how Washington works. And that's my job here is 218 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: to explain it to you. I also think that there 219 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: is a problem, and this is a storm that is 220 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: brewing because we're going to have a debt ceiling vote 221 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: going into next year. I don't like that, but this 222 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: is the best deal we apparently could get done at 223 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: the time, and you still have to be able to 224 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: count to two eighteen. Now Friday afternoon, for example, there 225 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: was a Republican representative from New York delivered the latest 226 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: blow to Johnson, walking into a House Republican conference being 227 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: to hash out another path forward and made clear that 228 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: she stands on Johnson's leadership or lack thereof, saying quote, 229 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on, and really that's part 230 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: of the problem, is what she said to reporters, adding 231 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: there has been quote zero communication from leadership to the membership. 232 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: Something should change before January third. So you can already 233 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: see Republicans are saying hey, and it's one or two 234 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: of them that can have this much power. This is 235 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 1: also an example of Representative Thomas Massey, Republican from Kentucky. 236 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: He's committed to voting against Johnson as well. Representative Rich McCormick, 237 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: a Republican from Georgia, said on Thursday he would oppose 238 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: Johnson if the vote were held today. When asked how 239 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: frustrating frustrated she was with Johnson, the congresswoman that I 240 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: mentioned a moment ago from New York answered, how does 241 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: it sound, referring to how mad she is? Now that's 242 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: three Republicans. Look at the majority. It's razor thin. I 243 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: will tell you right now, there is no one else 244 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: on the list to be Speaker of the House that 245 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: is as conservative and or as solid of a Christian 246 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: is Speaker Johnson. Okay, Speaker Johnson keeps getting put in 247 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: an impossible situation over and over and over and over 248 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: and over again. Put in to an impossible situation because 249 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: he has such a small window for success, and there 250 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: are so many liberals out there, an opportunists, I would argue, 251 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: in the Republican Party that can just straight up screw 252 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: with him whenever they want to. And that is one 253 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: of the biggest problems here, and that's why they're saying, ooh, 254 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: there's blood in the water. Oh, maybe we can get 255 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: rid of him. My question is careful what you wish for. 256 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: Who are you going to get? That's the question that 257 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: everybody needs to be asking who are you going to get? Now? 258 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: Representative Chip Roy, for example, asking the question today, sidestepping 259 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: the question over Trump's primary thread over the spending bill, saying, quote, 260 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about the politics here. Take a listen, all. 261 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 3: Right for the very latest on all of this, Let's 262 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 3: bring in Texas Republican Congressman Chip Roy, who serves on 263 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 3: the House Budget Committee. So the meeting with the House 264 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 3: Republican Conference is still going on. I assume you were 265 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 3: there for a time. What's going on inside and are 266 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 3: we going to see a deal? Are we going to 267 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 3: see a vote? We're going to see a government shuts 268 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 3: down all options on the table. I don't know. 269 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: Hey, John, Hey Shannon. 270 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 4: Great to be on And yeah, the meeting is still 271 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 4: underway as we speak, and we're having a good conversation. 272 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 4: And look, President Trump is absolutely right. We need to 273 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 4: deal with the debt ceiling. We need to get it 274 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 4: off the table so that he can proceed to do 275 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 4: what he needs to do without Chuck Schumer rattling the 276 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 4: markets with threats of default. That's what Chuck Schumer has 277 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 4: said publicly and to people in the Senate he wants 278 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 4: to do so. 279 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: President Trump is right. The question is how we get there. 280 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 4: The first bill that was negotiated obviously was a non 281 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 4: starter once the American people saw everything that was in 282 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 4: five hundred and fifty pages. 283 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: So we've moved the needle forward to a better bill. 284 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: But it was a bill. 285 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 4: And you asked why did I oppose the bill last night? 286 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 4: Thirty eight Republicans opposed it was because it came with 287 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 4: two year extension of the debt ceiling, which would be 288 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 4: about five trillion dollar a lift in our credit card 289 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 4: without any structural spending reforms. Our position is, mister President, 290 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 4: we want to deliver for you on a debt ceiling 291 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 4: increase to get it out of the way. Chuck Schumer 292 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 4: can't abuse it, but we need spending restraints. So what 293 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 4: we've been doing for forty eight hours is meeting, meeting 294 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 4: with the Vice president, meeting with a lot of folks 295 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 4: in his incoming administration. I think we've got the outlines 296 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 4: of something that would work, but we're still discussing it 297 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 4: as we speak. I think we can get something done 298 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 4: that will make everybody happy. 299 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: We're working hard to do it. 300 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, talk about the outlines in just a second, 301 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 3: and let me come back to this idea of the 302 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 3: debt ceiling and voting against the proposal the President Trump 303 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 3: was proposing and was getting behind. He was supporting it, 304 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 3: because he's now taking aim at you, saying that you 305 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 3: Chip Royer getting in the way of what he wants done, 306 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 3: and he's encouraging Republicans in Texas to primary. 307 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: You mean you've really poked the bear here. Yeah. 308 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 4: Look, at the end of the day, my job is 309 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 4: to honor God, my family, the Constitution, of voters, the voters. 310 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: Who sent me here. That is what drives me. 311 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 4: But I am working tirelessly to get what the president wants. 312 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 4: Think the president knows that at the end of the day, 313 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 4: look politics or politics. Rick Perry called President trumpet cancer 314 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 4: and then ended up in his cabinet. I'm not worried 315 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 4: about politics. I'm worried about the American people. I'm worried 316 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 4: about inflation. I'm worried about a five trillion dollars dead 317 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 4: sealing increase with no spending cuts. The President is rightly 318 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 4: motivated to block Chuck Schumer's abuse, but we Republicans here 319 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 4: in Congress, in the House, have an obligation to get 320 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 4: it done correctly. That's what we're working to try to 321 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 4: do on behalf of the President and our constituents and 322 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 4: our obligations under the Constitution. 323 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 3: All right, So let's look behind the curtain if we 324 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 3: could just a little bit, because our Aisha Husti tells 325 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 3: us that there's a couple of options being talked about 326 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 3: right now. One is a cr that will be coupled 327 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 3: with disasterrate and farm made. It would be effective through March. 328 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 3: It would be the vote would be on a suspension 329 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 3: of the rules which limits debate no amendments. Our option 330 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 3: number two is a CR disaster rate and farm made 331 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 3: is separate bills in separate votes. Which way do you 332 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 3: think is going to go? 333 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 4: Well, that is what is being debated as we speak. 334 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 4: And I don't want to get in front of the 335 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 4: speaker or my colleagues making news here or violate confidences 336 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 4: of a private meeting. But everything hinges on getting comfortable 337 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 4: with the outlines and the contours of spending restraint next 338 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 4: year in reconciliation as part of the agreement on how 339 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 4: much we can lift the debt ceiling. I think we're 340 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 4: getting comfortable with that outline as we speak, and then 341 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 4: if so, one of two things will happen. Either the 342 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 4: package last night without the debt ceiling attached to it 343 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 4: will move forward because the President is comfortable that we're 344 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 4: going to be able to get that done in January, 345 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 4: or there might be some standalone votes on a continual 346 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 4: resolution plus the farm bill extension of one year a separate. 347 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: Now you can hear there they're talking to him about 348 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: this vote. We know what happened, We understand this, but 349 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: I want you to notice now what the media has done. 350 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: They are now trying to turn these votes into civil 351 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: war within the Republican Party. Chip Roy's a good man, 352 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: he's a fiscal conservative, he's a Christian, he's a hard 353 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: fighter for our constitution, and he's somebody that I would 354 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: argue as a great member of Congress. I tell you 355 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: this tale to remind you to be careful to not 356 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: fall into the civil war idea within the Republican Party, 357 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: because this is what Democrats want. They want Donald Trump 358 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: angry to conservative hardcore member of Congress and being at 359 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: odds with one another. That is a problem. We do 360 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: not need to be in a civil war period. Many 361 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: of you may be doing your last minute Christmas shopping 362 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: and I want you to understand what we have just 363 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: found out about. Major corporations including Kia TJ Max listed 364 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 1: as corporate sponsors of the Rainbow Library pushing trans books 365 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 1: on your children. The retailers TJ Max and the automaker 366 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: Kia are listed as co spon munsters of a program 367 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: that is distributing the LGBTQ themed books to k through 368 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: twelve schools across the United States. This according to a 369 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: Wednesday report from the conservative nonprofit Consumer Research obtained by 370 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: the Daily Caller News Foundation. Now, the initiative titled the 371 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: Rainbow Library is run by national LGBTQ plus activist organization, 372 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network known as GLSEN. 373 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: What does it do It sends participating teachers books that 374 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: push transgenderism and homosexuality onto kids as young as five. 375 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: Over eight thousand, one hundred schools in thirty three different 376 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: states nationwide are now participating in the program. Meaning there's 377 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: a very good chance that your kids, are grandkids are 378 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: at a public school where this is actually in the 379 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: library system and being used in the classroom. Now, let 380 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 1: me read you this quote. TJ Max and KIA are 381 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: pushing radical gender ideology on kids through their sponsorship of 382 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: the g LSEEN Rainbow Network, which promotes transgender ideology and 383 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 1: classrooms across the country through books and recommended lesson plans 384 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: for teachers. So it's not just the books are available, 385 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: it is actual lesson plans for the teachers to then 386 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: follow to then indoctrinate your children. That is what Will Hoild, 387 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: Executive director of Consumer Research, set and a statement. By 388 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: sponsoring organizations with a political activist agenda like this organization 389 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: in the Rainbow Library, these companies are putting woke politics 390 00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: specifically ahead of their consumer base. In other word, words, 391 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: TJ Max and kir are hoping that you won't find 392 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: out that this is what they are involved in. Now 393 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: here's something else that you need to understand as well. 394 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: A spokesman for Kia has come out understanding that they 395 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: have walked into a major problem, and they have denied 396 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: in a statement that the auto company sponsored the Rainbow 397 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: Library in twenty twenty three or twenty twenty four, but 398 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: they did not respond to further inquiries about why it 399 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: was prominently displayed as a sponsor on the GLSN website. 400 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: I am looking at the website. It is there right now, 401 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: and I'm going to tell you even more about this 402 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,239 Speaker 1: in a moment. But first I want to tell you 403 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: about Patriot Mobile. If you are like me and you 404 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,959 Speaker 1: are tired of giving your money to organizations that are 405 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: fighting against your conservative and Christian values, then you really 406 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: need to look at your cell phone bill. You may 407 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: not realize that the Big Mobile four years has been 408 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: giving big donations to democratic causes, candidates and radical organizations. 409 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 1: I'm talking about organizations that are paying for abortions on demand. 410 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: That's not all the Big Mobile has been giving donations 411 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: to organizations that also are in favor of defunding the police. 412 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: And that's another reason why you need to know where 413 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: your cash is going, and that's why you need to 414 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: switch to Patriot Mobile.
