Rep. Ralph Norman: Freedom Caucus Submits Amendments to Biden Budget
"When the 20 of us basically told balked on voting for McCarthy, who speak of the house as a powerful position, they determined who who serves on what committees, what bills come to the floor and start in line for president. One of the things that we reason we did that was because initially, when we ask about a 7 year budget balance of the budget 7 years, he said, no, we said when is it going to be? He said 20 years. And that's when we voted. That's when we said enough is enough. The American people don't deserve this and we just go hold out until we find somebody who will balance the budget and get us back on financial sanity. The good news is we had a press conference this morning, freedom caucus has put forward 504 amendments, which is cutting the budget deeply. And basically, and I will have to give mister McCarthy credit he is doing what he said he would do because we've got such a short runway to correct what's going on in this country. So bottom line, I'm encouraged with the direction we're going. Every dollar spent in D.C. though has got an advocate. And it's going to be some fights. We got the debt ceiling showdown. We've got the budget itself, but we've got a core group of conservatives who are not going to take no for an answer.

Chuck Schumer: Where Is the Republican Proposal on Spending?
"Because he's a svengali He's a very evil nasty human being And I question the last And what Schumer is doing here is saying we want to claim Bill just pay for everything that we pass That's all That's all Pay for everything we dump in your lap Go ahead Without this risk of hostage taking where things could blow up because as you know if we don't renew the debt ceiling average American families will be clobbered Their interest rates would go up Their pension savings would go down Folks folks This is why I despise him and people like him Now all this is happening right now All this is happening right now Interest rates are going to continue to go up Do you know how I know this mister producer Because the fed just announced it So what this lease ball is doing is he's trying to tie that to this to this battle and this battle is about saving America And what Schumer is saying is you know majority in the House You don't have any say We dealt with Pelosi and McConnell We're done This is why McConnell is so poisonous to the country and the Republican Party He put the Republicans in this position in the house and they're fighting back which is good Go ahead Up to a $100,000 So it's risky Now McCarthy says he wants to attach certain spending cuts to do this A where is your plan mister McCarthy He says he wants cuts We ask him which ones he won't say any Is it social security and Medicare That would hurt the American He says it won't be He says it won't but a lot of other people in his caucus still say it will No nobody in his caucus not one they're trying to pin it on Rick Scott No that's not what he's saying or anybody else

Arise on behalf of the Republican Party, to nominate Kevin McCarthy for speaker of the 118 family. You only earn the position of Speaker of the House if you can get the votes.

McCarthy makes big gains for speaker, but still falls short
"There's been an extraordinary turn on the House floor after days of GOP chaos. The house remains gridlocked. The speaker has not been elected. But Kevin McCarthy's creeping closer. Perry, bishop of North Carolina, Clyde, Roy. 15 Republicans who had been blocking his path to the speaker's gavel now back him, including freedom caucus chair, Scott Perry. I know you're all wondering what changed the vote. Perry and Texas ship Roy say they've reached a framework of a deal to give rank and file members more sway. Our message to speaker elect McCarthy is that that framework serves as the search as the template by which we're going to be holding him accountable. Despite the stunning turnaround, there are still some holdouts, including Florida's Matt Gaetz. We do not trust mister McCarthy with power. His remarks led to some colleagues leaving the chamber in protest, Sagar Meghani, Washington.

Rep. Scott Perry: Is There a Deal for Kevin McCarthy Yet?
"Today looking like? And are you guys adding any more people to your numbers? Well, you never know, vote by vote, of course, unfortunately, Todd, people oftentimes tell me I'm with you on the next vote and you hear their name called and they don't go with you. So it's not just leadership that lies around here. It's individual members, but right now we're set to come back on the floor and roll some votes on at noon. So time will tell, look, things move around here. Pretty quickly when they start going Todd. So I wouldn't say that everything is assured, but you're just going to have to stay tuned and that includes me too because I can't predict the future either. And real quick, club for growth says a deal has been reached. That was the reporting late last night. Can you confirm or deny that? Well, look, I saw the same reporting on the club for growth. I don't know what they've done, but I am concerned that it's going to be marginal and of little consequence to what mister McCarthy, the swamp allies do in making sure that conservatives can't be elected, where they otherwise could be.

"Well, congressman, I can tell you we are one of the few national radio shows that we're standing in lockstep with the house freedom caucus and it really troubles me not just that there is opposition to what you guys are doing, but there are threats. And I want to get your initial reaction to something congressman Dan Crenshaw said on Fox News radio when he called you and your colleagues a bunch of terrorists and not just him, but also there was a congressman congressman Rogers from Alabama who also called you guys terrorist. Look, these comments are the desperate tactics of people that can't win the argument and quite honestly have a terrible record. Yes, as you know, Todd, there are members past and present that have a vested interest in the status quo here. There's a lot of money being made here and changed hands. It's taken from the American people and distributed around town here. That's the status quo, and they want to continue to further that and protect that status quo. Somebody's got to fight for the American people, Todd. And while I will never say things like that about my colleagues, especially members that have worn the uniform as I have, I'm not desperate. I do rely on the merits of my argument and if my colleagues want to go out and support and talk about the great things that have happened in Congress over the last ten years, whether it's $1.7 trillion omnibus Christmas trees spending bills that are dropped at 2 o'clock in the morning right before Christmas. They can go talk about those things. I suspect that most Americans will not agree with their perspective. Something has to change here, Todd. You can't keep doing the same things under the same conditions with the same people and expect a different outcome. Mister McCarthy has been in leadership for 14 years now.

If Kevin McCarthy had had the guts to expel every insurrectionist from Congress, he wouldn't be going through this right now. Thank you. No one has ever deserved this Kevin McCarthy. There's a problem in that plan. What? He wouldn't have a majority. That's true. Hardly anyone left. Yeah. Oh my God. You have Hakeem Jeffries. Who said, they're not rebels. They're coup plotters, insurrectionists, anarchists. Uh, Sam eagle. No. Nicole Wallace. Also former Republican. She's not speaking of insect no, she's not now. Speaking of insurrectionists, Jenny Thomas has jumped into the fight. Fight, fight, fight. She said a letter, a sailing Kevin McCarthy's leadership with all the other whack jobs from the right. Do you think there's like a drunk phone call Yeah, she drunk to hold everybody that's on that letter now. They're just, they're having an insurrection now. Is that what's happening? They're having their own something. Yeah. Insurrection. With a bunch of insurrectionists who could have seen that coming. Okay. This is fantastic. Bloomberg, because Kevin McCarthy. It's pathetic. He's the worst leader. Ever. He's horrible. I don't know how he still has a Twitter handle GOP leader because he's right? Have you seen the new stages of toast in Kevin's the last one? Yeah. Yeah. People are saying now that he's not going to really is not going to get this. Yet he's still in the speakers office. Did you see him when he was walking off the floor last night? They had a gaggle following him. It wasn't good audio, but he was like, you know, I crawled before I walk and I walked before I run. He said that? Yes. That is so sad. He's like, he's like, are on this vote tonight? We're obviously conversations are working. Wow. He is the gimp in the basement. Oh, man. Yes. Julian Seattle sends the Bloomberg reporting a dueling D moves in clown world, Bloomberg reporting on dueling moves. We reported yesterday Matt Gaetz writing saying that Kevin McCarthy is a squatter to the architect telling the movie. Right. Okay. Right. By Kevin and the subset of clowns keeping him from his crown, apparently rapping forehead in his gang fell for McCarthy asking them for their demands and they're really full of themselves now and made preposterous preposterously demands in writing LOL, the man who would be clown king released the list to make the sub clowns look like these, which of course they are. Seems to me like this is a really stupid time to take out the metal detectors. Delusions of grandeur and lust for power meet repeated sorted abject humiliation. What could possibly go wrong? I have a question on whose authority did they do that since they're. Not the majority. They don't have a speaker. They don't have rules. Thank you. Gates, one of McCarthy's most vocal detractors, Bloomberg writes shot back on Wednesday night saying McCarthy had asked them to provide a list of committee requests, then promptly leaked it to the press to make it appear they were angling for personal favors. Gates said it was a bad faith effort for mister McCarthy to solicit that list from us and then use it to divide our caucus. He said I'm ready to vote all night all week and never for that person. So that was Kevin McCarthy's latest D move in response to the back gates as D move yesterday. They're kind of a bag of rats and a bag of these. Yeah. Yeah. They're baguettes fighting over a bunch of these. Cool, rooting for the sound effect of a bag of cheese. No. What would that sound like?

The top story we're following former president Trump is calling on all House Republicans to get behind Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the House. Yesterday, McCarthy failed to get even close to the number of OC needed to become the next speaker. More now from WTO's Mitchell Miller, on Capitol Hill. We all came here to get things done. To get big things done. But the number two House Republican, Steve scalise, and GOP lawmakers can't get things done until they choose a speaker. They failed to come together on three separate ballots, the first time that's happened in a century. Before the ballots, McCarthy had indicated he was willing to go as long as necessary. I don't have a problem getting a record for the most votes for speaker. But that dynamic may have changed since in the final vote of the day, 20 Republicans, including Florida's Matt Gaetz, voted against McCarthy. We struggle with trust with mister McCarthy. Republicans remain at odds, and for now, can't get a majority to agree on who will lead their House majority. On Capitol Hill, Mitchell Miller, WTO. Also on the hill, congressman Matt Gaetz wants to make sure that Kevin McCarthy doesn't move into the speakers chambers before he's elected. Gates has sent a letter to the architect of the capitol, questioning why McCarthy was already setting up shop in the speaker's office before securing the necessary votes to take the gavel. NBC News posted video earlier this week of what appeared to be McCarthy's items already being moved into the speaker's office. Gates says that after three failed votes yesterday, no member can yet lay claim to that office

As McCarthy scrambles to find a path out of the current stalemate, GOP leadership tells CNN that there is no longer a conference meeting scheduled tomorrow. Matt Lewis is senior columnist at The Daily Beast. He tells WTO P House Democrats look smooth and organized compared to this GOP mess. When you compare that to the chaos taking place in the Republican Party, you know, it's clear that there is one party. And this has very little to do with ideological differences, but there's one party that is much more competent and professional. I think just very empirically compared to the other party that is not competent and professional. At least not right now. Stay with us for the full interview with Matt Lewis at ten ten this evening.

"They just don't do your work. Yep, you're correct. But I appreciate your time. Thank you, Tim. That's a very good phone call. And I appreciate you calling in from Georgia today. And you're right, because again, the concept is you've got to get to the bottom of stuff. But as I said before, and I understand why they did it this way. I understand why House Republicans running for election did it this way. They said things like. Let's fire Nancy Pelosi. Okay, now what? That's not enough. Just firing Nancy Pelosi was not ever going to be enough. You've got to actually do something to help America. And they may have great plans, but I think there, again, I just get the sense that some in the party, especially people like mister McCarthy, they're very concerned with the trappings of power and I don't see any work. And that's my big concern. But I think Tim does raise a good point. Look, if you can really prove, you can really prove that all of these shenanigans happened, well, yeah, you do need to do it. And I agree. I just don't want it to be nothing but investigations and knowing that the deck is stacked with the media. They're going to portray it as a whole bunch of nothing, and that the house is doing nothing but investigating and they're being punitive and it's all retribution.

"Now, you might have heard me snicker as you were talking because I knew how the story was going to end. He didn't think he needed you. He was going to be able to have this huge majority and so therefore your concerns were not valid. And obviously he can only lose four members on any issue, including the vote for speaker and you know this better than I do, but that's the first vote the new Congress takes is it not? It is on January the third, we will go in. There has been a contested speakers race before, has not been for quite some time, but 1923, they had one. We've got well over we've had 13 people come out publicly. Everybody talks about the 5. The fabulous 5. We came out and very publicly very early said, we're not going to support Kevin. But there has been many, many other individuals that have come out since. There were 36 members that voted against him in the conference and we had a debate about earmarks. That's one of the provisions that we need to make sure that we keep maintained the prohibition. They put a prohibition to Republicans said, just by role, not by law, back in, I think it was either 2006, 2008. And so they stopped using this swampy technique to get money into legislation that basically votes from these members. And oh, guess who asked it for all over that money? Where it goes to and who gets to spend it. The speaker? Yes. Nothing. It was just 52. 52 members stood up and voted against earmarks that day. Nothing is swampier than the stuff that you're describing, and I have never met, representative McCarthy, but I did talk with someone whose judgment I trust here in the state of Iowa representative McCarthy was campaigning for a Republican and the person I talked to said it appeared that mister McCarthy basically was out for himself. And that was the impression he was giving to people. And I will not ask you to weigh in on that, but I will ask is as a final couple of questions here. Are you voting for Kevin McCarthy on January 3rd and who will be the next Speaker of the House? Two part question, sir. Okay, so the first part will make it real easy now. I am not. I can not a good face to that. Kevin McCarthy doesn't believe in anything except the next wrong on the ladder, Jeff, for himself, and he makes whatever deal is necessary to climb up by using other people's money, contributors, lobbyists, and or taxpayers dollars due to the legislation that he allows to go forward and that is why he is horrified of the motion to vacate the chair because it's the only tool that we have to keep him in check. And he will promise you something today that may be negotiated a way tomorrow to someone else for something else. So what's it the old say? You've got to believe in something or you fall for anything. Yes. And the people believing that who is going to be the next speaker, there's a lot of discussions taking place right now with people that are members of Congress, the conversations of that someone from outside of Congress have finally pretty much been put to rest, but there are members with in Congress now that they've recognized that Kevin is not going to have the votes. They are willing to put their hand up quietly that they see that The Crown has been toppled. But they still had to come out real aggressively yet because he still has the ability to impose his retribution upon everyone. Why is it? I've got a question for you. Why is it that we have not designated every single person for every committee? Populated our committees with the chairs. No reason. We know who's going to be serving in Congress. We know who everybody is. The steering committee, which actually meets and has these conversations, has done their work. Why haven't they been seated? Because that is yet another that is another provision that can be held against someone to call it what you want. There's a lot of fancy terms for it, but leverage negotiations was blackmailed. You don't both the right way. You're not going to get your seat. And that's all the polls stand there. I was thinking of the word blackmail as you spoke at congressman and there's no better way to phrase it. I thank you so much for your candor and for your passion and we look forward to seeing how this turns out..

"Congressman, I want to move right along to the speakership race Mark Levin going after you and it's pretty nasty stuff and we've called levent out for this. On this program. But he's called you a phony a fake and a fraud. I want to get your reaction to his nastiness. Well, you know, to be honest with you Todd, I live in a world where I laugh at that. I mean, I just kind of, it's over the top. It's untrue, of course. And he said, he's actually worse than mad about me. Yeah, I was trying to be nice. I didn't want to go full bore on yet. But you know, hey, look, he's got his First Amendment rights to express his opinion. Now, it's somewhat as defamatory. I mean, there's nobody in Congress or who observes Congress that would say Biggs is a phony conservative. There's nobody who is saying that. And so anybody who watches that and here's what he's saying says, well, you know, hey, there's either something wrong with mister Levin. And I kind of feel bad for him because I think whatever's going on with him is so utterly personal. And as far as I know, I've never done anything or said anything that would be a slight to him personally, but I mean the reality is, it's so over the top. It's visceral. It's emotional. It has nothing to do with the speakers race at all, in my opinion. But he did raise one thing I wanted to ask you about this. He says that you voted for Tom emmer's against Jim banks. Did you do that and if so why? Yeah, well, so here's the reality and I tried to be very kind to mister banks because I got to look at the same time Jim did. And I like him. I like the guy. But between emmer's and banks, I can tell you immers has never misled me or I'm trying to be as diplomatic as you work. Let me put it this way. When Tom tells me something, I know it's the truth. That's and that is important to me. Has banks not done that? I want to be a diplomatic enough to say that when they were speaks to me, I know he's telling me the truth. Okay. I gotcha. I see where you're coming from on that. It's really amazing to see to see how people are surrounding Kevin McCarthy when many of these same people have been criticizing him for years for not being conservative, but now all of a sudden, if he doesn't get elected speakership, the threat is old Liz Cheney or you can have some rhinos, you know, join the Democrats. I mean, it's just insane to think that now the house freedom caucus is not conservative. I mean, that's what they're trying to say. Yeah, I mean, I find it really interesting because Kevin has been at the apex of the Republican Party in Congress for 12 years. When he was the floor leader, majority of the majority leader, he got budgets through not with Republican votes, but with Democrat votes. I mean, look, the reality is. People who I can't pay for. And I go all over the country. They'll say, look, we please don't give us McConnell or McCarthy. Well, and now you have some of these conservative outlets that people go to, excuse me, they're influencers. And they're saying, well, yeah, Biggs is not conserved, does freedom Congress not conservative. These guys are going to cost them. Here's the deal. If you really think that there's going to be chaos in January 3rd and acknowledge that mister McCarthy does not have the votes, why don't you say to him a mister McCarthy why don't you step down and let's see if we can find someone else. In a center right conservative conference that could lead us that everybody would rally behind and go forward and avoid whatever chaos you think is going to happen. I personally don't think there's going to be a great deal of chaos and the agenda. I mean, now mister McCarthy is saying, hey, if you don't like me, we're not going to get the Republican agenda through and I want to say, well, wait a second. What agenda did you put on? I put out a plan a year ago. It includes listing of legislation, et cetera. What is your plan? And what's your agenda? And I'm not, I think we need to have a change, and I think that the American people need to change, but we're not going to ever get it. But if we can't do it now, when are we going to ever make the change in leadership? That's what we've been asking for a long time. Here on this radio program, and that's why we support a new candidate for Speaker of the House. I'm with you. I don't think Kevin McCarthy is that leader. My question, final question, how many votes how many folks are not going to be voting? You guys have been running the numbers. What are we looking at here? Does he have the votes? He does not have the votes today. I don't think he's going to have the votes then. I mean, and these well short is well short. The numbers that I have are somewhere north of 20 are not going to vote for mister McCarthy. And that means if he would realize that we could go to an alternative candidate. I mean, I'm not going to have the votes either. I'm a realist. I'd love to have the votes. I'm not going to get there. But we could get somebody that is a consensus candidate..

"Says that he wants him to go with him. So is he going to? So look, he's been there. He's been to the border. That's gaslighting because we all know how many times has she been asked the question and said the exact same thing and everybody knows she's been fact checked. It's completely false. We know that the American public knows it. Everybody in that pressure room knows that's false, and so by doing that, your gaslighting. Yeah, because everybody knows that's not the reality. And she's stating it as if it's a fact that everybody knows and is undisputed. Right. It's amazing. Only Peter doocy in that room has it wrong. Now, I'll tell you one thing. I did notice there that she's laughing now has become the stall, as she goes through the book of answers. The binder of answers. Yes. Because she was laughing and she's laughing, but her eyes, you know how, because you can see, you always see her eyelids. Her eyelids are because so she's smiling and laughing. And the eyelids you can tell she's looking straight down, trying to find the answer to a question, think about that. Does she think? Has Biden been to the border? Biden, and she knows he hasn't. What does she think she's going to get out of that binder? Well, it's, by the way, she didn't use the tactic that the left often uses. At that Peter served up as quite frankly, this is T ball, not even softball. Well, the president isn't going to respond to mister McCarthy because a, he's not the Speaker of the House yet. And being president is busy with a number of things right now. So we'll talk about that maybe after the first year. And leave it. I like that. I knew where you were going. That's why I started laughing early on. I mean, it's not it isn't difficult to make the spin. You throw it back at Kevin McCarthy. And be done with it and move on to the next question. This is what in part, one of the many things that makes her very bad at her job. What happens if they lose the book of answers? I think you could lose the nuclear football and it would be less panic than if they lost the book of answers. Well, you know, the first thing they would have to do is cancel everything. Not just the press events, cancel everything. You've got to find the book of answers. Where's the book advances? By the way, somebody's got to get that book of answers. Somebody has to get that book of answers. Get a peek at it sometimes. There is a political book if they just publish the book. This copy it and send it out. There's a book I would pay money for. I want to see what's in the book. How many times has she said he's been to the border? Because this isn't the first. No, no, no, it's not, it's not the first. You went for the obvious lie? And I say it's gaslighting because everybody in that room. There may be some people that, I don't know, is Biden been to the border? So at that point, it would just be a lot. Yeah. But the gaslighting is stating it in front of the press corps that knows the reality without question as she keeps attempting to over and over again and she'll say it. You know, he's already been to the border and then he'll ask and if he's asked before, he goes, no, he's been to the border and then she'll go on with a total explanation that's completely unrelated to the question response has completely unrelated to the question and then she'll go immediately to another reporter. Right. And everyone knows she's gaslighting. Everyone. I like the fact that gaslighting has become the word of the year. You know, just make it seem like Pete doocy must be losing his mind because everybody in that room knows he's been to the border. Effectively, there's your gaslighting. And it's, you know, it's obvious that she's lying. Everyone in that room is fully aware of it. It's a lie. Everybody knows what they were in the room, everyone knows what the reality is. And it doesn't play well. It doesn't. So you stay away from it. You turn it back on Kevin McCarthy. How is this difficult? No, I like your answer. Well, the only thing is he Kevin McCarthy did meet with him, so that's what makes it. That's what makes him but he's not the he's not the Speaker of the House. Well, yeah, you can still use that. Well, I'm sorry. My apologies. Yeah. My apologies for momentarily believing that there is some form of concern. Because I believe there should be some form of consistency and true believing in truth, believing that they should sorry I, not a moment there, not the point at all. You just turned it back around on Kevin McCarthy. Yeah. I apologize. Some type of logical. Throw in a bit of a jab. Let's see if he gets the votes and becomes speaker. First. Oh. I can do that all day. It's not that difficult. No, that's good. I don't have a book of answers in front. I do like that though. I do like the way that that. That's the first thing I would have said. Well, Peter, first of all, after the first of the year, we'll go through the process and we'll see if McCarthy gets the votes and becomes Speaker of the House. Then they can have that discussion. Next question. Not that hard. Oh man

"Facts matter. Stephanie Miller. And their life is better than yours. Surgeon. But I have to charge my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like, yes, Dana Goldberg is here. She's surprised no one's remade that song for you. This is my milkshake brings all the girls to the yard and they're right. Let's get on it. Let's get on it. In the meantime, we have chairman Adam Schiff. And certainly urging that the report be as broad as possible, and I'm sure we will reach a consensus on that. We also want to make sure that everything is documented that everything is factual and I think part of our success in the past has been making sure everything is nailed down and we want to do that in the report is appendices and whatever companies it as well. Yeah, can not wait. By the way, I love this. Here's Kevin McCarthy. Yesterday. I'm very honored to have more than 85% of the conference vote for me. That's like winning the primary who wins by 85%. You know, we're going to the floor. And I believe we'll get to two 18. Why? 'cause if we don't, none of those investigations go forward. None of the work that we have put before us. Oh, then cut to Andy Biggs. I don't think mister McCarthy has the votes because far more than 5 people have told me that they're not going to vote for mister McCarthy. McCarthy doesn't have the votes. He's not going to get the votes. So the question is not are the people who are voting against McCarthy going to cause him to go to the Democrats. The question is, is he willing to form a coalition with the Democrats rather than to step aside and give us somebody who will fight? I fight big bag of rats. Andy Biggs actually said 20 members of the House Republican conference are pretty hard pretty hard no votes against McCarthy fight fight fight. We could just imagine McCarthy going to Democrats of being listen. I was just, I know that I've been just saying really bad things about you for the last few years, but I need something from you. Just one of you. Okay, thank you. Kevin McCarthy yesterday. Yes. We can't start investigating my orcus. We can't secure the border. We can't lower the gasoline price by making us energy independent. We can't give a government and hold them accountable. We can't pass a parent's Bill of rights. All of that will stop the subpoenas can't move out until you elect a speaker. My God, he's so desperate and sweaty. He's like, he's like a cast member of glengarry Glen Ross. He's such a thirsty whore. Yeah. I believe we will all come together because Sean, you're right. We need to do this for the American people. We either are successful together. Are we will fail individually and we will not be given the possibility? Are the opportunity to be in the majority again? All right, and now here is noted walker Andy Biggs. Mister McCarthy. With all due respect, has been there for 6 years. And he is not changed the status quo. He is continued on where we sit there and we were saying, well, where are we going? Who's going to fight? Did you fight for the last two years or even the last four years against the Biden administration? I mean, he's the one who just said that that's what we're going to have to do. We're going to have to fight. Well, what did you do to fight against the Biden administration? Andy, can I call you Andy, can I say something? Listen, both your dreams come to country. There's a good chance that you're going to go to prison first edition conspiracy and Kevin McCarthy will also never be speaker, so really. Everyone can be happy. One more. That becomes the question that is the issue. And so I think that there's more people there and maybe people in our conference need to quit denying the fact that he's not going to get there. And let's get together and let's get a consensus candidate before January 3rd. Dana, who do you think the consensus candidate is? I don't really. I have no idea. I don't think this house is going to come to consensus on anything for two years. Yeah. I love the John Boehner was spotted in the capitol. They think maybe that's a possibility seriously. The party of new ideas. How about this guy again? And let's reuse this guy. The stoner dude who quit like 5 years ago. Yes. Oh my God. If we could find someone more orange than Donald Trump, who would it be? I think it would be her. 25 minutes after the hour. Dana's here. Yay. You are listening to WCT 8
America First with Sebastian Gorka Podcast
Rep. Matt Rosendale Doesn't Know How Kevin McCarthy Will Get the Votes
"Things going on with Kevin McCarthy and we're going to have an update of all the shenanigans right now with a new guest on the show from Montana's second congressional district, a man who served in the House of Representatives in Montana in the Senate. He has been the Senate majority leader and we are delighted to have congressman Matt rosendale with us on America first wink, welcome congressman. Doctor gorka, it's good to be with you today. All right, so tell us what was going on on Capitol Hill yesterday and today, and there's quite a few people who have the letter R after their name who do not want Kevin McCarthy to be the speaker. Is that correct? That is correct. We can not continue to put the same people in to lead this conference and use the same rules that they have been utilizing for the last several years and hope and pray that maybe we'll get a different outcome. Absolutely. Now, one of the things I heard is that for an hour and a half, Marjorie Taylor Greene was negotiating behind closed doors with Kevin McCarthy. Do you know anything about that? Because that disturbs me a little bit. That I can not speak to, what I will tell you is I think that there's probably going to be a lot of discussions that take place over the next 40 days leading up to January the third when mister McCarthy is going to have to try to accumulate 200 and 18 votes on the floor. He did not receive that yesterday. He didn't receive 200. I'm sure a lot of your listeners listen heard the quote from representative Matt Gaetz yesterday. He didn't get 200. He didn't get 190. And so if you couldn't acquire 218 votes over the last 6 years, how is it that you expect to gather the additional 30 that you need over the next 40 days?

Kevin McCullough Is Calling Out Career Politicians
"Are calling out the career politicians like Mitch McConnell. I guess you have a better view of Kevin McCarthy. But I guess my question is, why doesn't somebody like Kevin McCarthy talk about voter fraud? Why does he, I just think it's such an offense against this nation that we would allow malfeasance that we would allow that kind of corruption. It's hard for me to process, hard for me not to get angry when I see lying and cheating and people not saying anything. But full disclosure on mister McCarthy, not only do we share the same initials. But at that singer, your boss and mine at the Salem news channel released an editorial just this weekend about why Kevin McCarthy is not a rhino. And if there's anybody in all of America that would know this, it would be at at stinger who has basically mentored in shepherd Kevin McCarthy from the time he entered California politics as a local congressman, a 150 years ago. It's much shorter than that. Well, everybody knows I love Eddie. I'm just saying they don't way back. But then just tell him because he had a lot of good guys, let's say he's got competing caucuses. So he's going to have several caucuses that are going to give him trouble in a very narrowly. Well, this is why I'm asking the question. I want to understand what was going on. This is going to compose about 80 members. So if he's at two 20, that's going to be the largest caucus total. Then you're going to have the freedom caucus, which is going to vote most of the time in the same step with the mega caucus. You're also going to have the moderate caucus, which is going to be about 40 people. Now, they're not going to be able to get legislation done. Or much of anything else done unless they have that caucus voting with them on things.

"This and the middle of the west wing, talking about the politics of a tweet being concerned with handing the media when we had just watched all of that violence unfold at the capitol. And so I motioned up at the TV and I said, do you think it looks like we're effing winning? Because I don't think it does. And I again reiterated that I thought that the president needed to condemn the violence because it didn't matter if it was coming from the left or the right that you should condemn violence a 100% of the time. We've heard this evening how everyone in the president's orbit was pushing him to do more to tell the mob to leave the capitol, one of these people, one of those people was Republican leader Kevin McCarthy. He managed to get the president on the phone and told him to call off his supporters. As you will hear, the president refused and so leader McCarthy reached out for help to Ivanka Trump, who was at The White House in Jared Kushner, who that afternoon had just arrived back on a flight from the Middle East. So at some point in the afternoon, mister McCarthy placed a phone call to mister scavino desk line and it was transferred to the president. Is that correct? That's generally what I recall. Okay. Were you involved in making that transferring that call? I yes. Okay. Where was the president at the time that he took that call? He was in the dining room. Would you personally reach out to the president for more support? I've already talked to the president. I called them. I think we need to make a statement. Make sure that we can calm individuals down. Did mister McCarthy indicate that he had been in touch with the president Trump? She indicated that he had had some conversation. I don't recall whether it was with the president or somebody at The White House, but I think he expressed frustration that not taking the circumstances seriously as they shared that moment. You know, I asked Kevin McCarthy, who's a Republican leader about this. And

"The decision they've taken now And one of the coming off the house floor I tried to ask minority leader Kevin McCarthy whether he believes if he refuses to comply with the subpoena whether Democrats next year should he be speaker should his party be in the majority and issues the pain I was whether he expects the Democrats to comply This could set a precedent two ways of these Republicans refused to cooperate Chad you cover the hill your thoughts on this Well the problem here is that article one section 5 of the constitution says that the House and Senate have the right to discipline their own members So if this goes to court or they send a criminal referral down to the DoJ if they vote to hold them in contempt of Congress for not actually complying with the subpoena they're going to say wait a minute You know legislative branch under article one can take care of its own business You also have what's called the speech or debate clause where there's kind of a shield there for members of Congress looking into their actual congressional doings So that's a problem The other issue though is that this sets the table for these big hearings that will start around June 9th or so is what we're told here And the idea that they still may actually ask these members to come and testify And if they don't there's a lot of stagecraft here You could imagine a scenario where they put the nameplates out of each of the witnesses Mister McCarthy mister Brooks they have an empty chair there They have the glass with the water beads of you know on the glass there and they create this narrative And then they bring up a witness or evidence or something that say hey you knew about this and they're not here to answer those questions And some of those hearings are going to be televised Some of those hearings are going to be in prime time So what they're really doing here is priming the pump for those hearings in June Well before we wrap up here I want to ask you both about Tuesday's Pennsylvania Senate primary We have an unexpected surge on the Republican side by Kathy Barnett a relative unknown Here's a campaign video where her mother says she was pregnant with Kathy as a result of rape I don't want to use the word choice.

"Our democracy We will follow the facts wherever they lead Attorney general Merrick Garland and one certainly hope that he does in fact follow the facts as we speak with our listeners said one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo and with the political science professor Alan Sanders in point of fact you could find probably as many motives for being on Capitol Hill last January 6th as there were people around there There were people who were curious There were people who wanted to know what was going on They were people looking around and there were others of course who had more serious intent who did engage in actual physical assaults on the buildings and on people It is all over the map And with the I might add from my perspective a typical Democratic Party mentality Everybody has pretty much been lumped under the same category of insurrection as the charge by the way being made by Amy Klobuchar the senator from Minnesota despite the fact that insurrection is not among the charges facing any of the defendants here so the first thing I think we should take note of is the fact that I certainly hope the attorney general follows the facts and that is to say to lump everybody into one category would be ignoring the facts Alan and my view Well what politicians say whether it's Amy Klobuchar or Donald Trump or mister McCarthy or mister McConnell isn't following the facts They all have an agenda The people who are following the facts of the attorney general should be operating from a different framework From a different framework you just told you how he's operating and what he's defining as his role and the role of his department will be watching That's right But the other senators and the other representatives both Democrats and Republicans all have an agenda And so it's not quite fair to say that the investigation depends on them The investigation depends on the attorney general and on the January 6th committee And the January 6th committee of course is made up of the very self same people with agendas to whom he referred a moment ago as we go back to calls here I will note two comments made by Donald Trump again in his typically rambling remarks of January 6th and I would note by the way that the trouble on Capitol Hill began before he was even done Speaking Here are the two remarks The one that has been used by those who accuse the president of inciting a riot and that this is a quote from the president's remarks that day president Trump we fight like hell and if you don't fight like hell you're not going to have a country anymore His defense attorneys point to another part of the speech in which the former president said I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the capitol building to peacefully and emphasis added by me to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard They argued that his words were not a call for actual violence and lawlessness with a typical disregard for perspective and for discretion You could look at various parts of his speech and find it all over the map in that regard I personally because of the president's use of the president Trump's use of the word peacefully I would not have voted to impeach him I would have voted a century His word showed the usual lack of any kind of understanding of the crowd assembled in what they may or may not have been prepared to do and those are simply factors that never occur to Donald Trump as an individual as a candidate or as a president your thoughts Well I think there's one thing what people say in public about what the committee is investigating By the way the committee is charged with investigating this The other politicians you mentioned Jim are not charged with investigating that So that's a difference If you're charged with investigating something you'd take an oath and you take that seriously And I think most members of that committee in fact all members of that committee are taking that very seriously People are not on that committee I can say whatever they want They're not charged with the investigation But what the president has said what the president has said is one thing What the committee has investigating is what was going on behind those words What was going on in the days before January 6th and what went on during January 6th and shortly afterwards And so Donald Trump has been very good despite his lack of rhetorical talent He's been very good at walking up to the edge of things and then sort of saying things in a way that he can always take it back and say I was joking or I didn't meet it would anybody take this seriously So the president's words in public are one thing but you really need to look at what was going on behind the scenes And I think that's what the committee is doing so that those words are now put into perhaps better context I hope that they do that Thomas and arcade of California calls and good evening Mister Sanders I just had three quick points I wanted to throw at you All right January 6th three women were murdered in the capital building Okay First of all I don't know that anybody was quote murdered I mean how many of those people were dragged kicking and screaming into the building without their permission How many were trespassing against their will I just ordered this 30 minutes ago on the Mark Levin show Joey Kelly was independent journalist that went in there She was in their actually video in everything Two women were beat to death by two capital police officers one man I'm not heard that before It's new evidence Yeah It must be very new It's interesting that it hasn't appeared until this moment but I believe we're coming up on a break here and I would like you to have a chance to mention all of your points so we will pause We'll come
