Hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the United States, and All Around The World as we continue our coverage of israel at war. Im rosemary church, we begin with a horrific Hospital Blast in gaza city, which has killed 471 people, according to the Ministry Of Health in gaza. Which is controlled by hamas. The u. S. Now says intelligence suggests israel is not responsible for the explosion as officials in gaza have claimed. And state President Joe Biden echoed the explanation from israel, saying the hospital explosion was the result of an errant rocket fired by the palestinian examined jihad. New video from al jazeera appears to show a rocket fired from gaza, explode inflight above gaza city on tuesday. Moments before the Hospital Blast. Just a few seconds later you can see large explosions on the ground. Its not clear at this point, if these events are related. The palestinian president reports explosions near another hospital in gaza city, the group says the blast targeted residential buildings on the main street in the area, it says israel ordered the group to evacuate the hospital on saturday. Meanwhile egypt says, it will start allowing humanitarian aid into gaza, President Biden says 20 trucks will pass through the rough across and possibly on friday. We have an opportunity to alleviate the pain, you should do it period. And if you dont youre gonna lose credibility world wide. I think everyone understands that. Scores of gaza residents have been gathering in the Border City Of Roughing hoping for a chance to enter egypt. But israeli airstrikes have hit the city as recently as this week. Currently were at the border ive been coming almost every day, in the hopes its going to open. Unfortunately every day is not news, we dont know if we can leave or stay, or at least where it is safe to stay in gaza. I ask, i asked the people out there, the people who have a heart, who do care. To find us a safe haven. Or at least get us out of gaza. The u. S. Is issuing Security Advisories throughout the middle east as protests continue to spread. Huge crowds gathered wednesday in cities across jordan, morocco, lebanon and in the west bank. Cnns sam kiley has more on the fallout from the Hospital Blast, this report contains some disturbing images. A blast immediate strategic impact. Jordan canceled a summit with the u. S. Egypt and the Palestinian Authority as news of mass casualties in gaza emerged. Now with the hamas controlled Gaza Health Ministry saying the death toll is over 470 from an explosion in the courtyard of this church run hospital. There are protests around the world. [crowd chanting] and in this war the truth is unlikely to emerge quickly. The u. S. Based on its own analysis of the evidence, including secret intelligence, has supported israels version of events. Based on information we have seen today it appears the result of an errant rocket fired by a Terrorist Group in gaza. Israel blames hamas in these land jihad, arrival is the militant group. Islamic jihad hamas and other palestinian groups say israel does it. Cnn has gilles located videos and stills from the scene, and shown all the available authentic evidence to two weapons experts. They agree the explosion is likely not caused by air drop bomb, or even guided missile. I would initially rule out a heavy airdrop bomb, the type of crave that ive seen on the imagery so far is large enough to be the type of bomb that weve seen dropped in the region on many occasions. Couldve been a Hellfire Type Missile . A guided munitions . Hellfire, im doubtful about. Preliminary cnn analysis of the crater suggests that the projectile hits the courtyard outside the hospital, from somewhere to the southwest. The Israeli Defense forces says the disaster was caused by a misfire of a missile fired from the south west of the hospital. Could this have been a rock art fired from Gaza Territory that went wrong . It could have very well have been a rocket fired by gaza, we will only know that it when the remnants are definitively identified and compared to other types of weapon systems, and munitions being fired in the area. A cnn human weapons expert, who wants to remain anonymous agreed. But in gaza may blame israel and its allies. [speaking in a nonenglish language] translator people who fled consider the hospital as a safe shelter for them. They didnt find any other place to go. But they struck people with those israeli american rockets. This is a war crime. Its a big crime killing children and women. Independent investigation would need to be down on the ground to determine the cause of the blast. Which is impossible under the current israeli bombardment, and unlikely under hamas. You worked in gaza for chris, have you investigated Rocket Misfires in the past . Yes ive tried to investigate Rocket Misfires in the past most certainly. On the fee you occasions this has happened, the local authorities did not give me free access to the area. Or very unhappy that i was trying to investigate, something that clearly gone wrong from their point of view. Amid the ongoing bloodshed, entrench supporters of either side are more likely to believe what they want now, regardless. Sam kiley, cnn. Lets go live now to london where journalist elliott got ken is following developments for us, good morning to you elliott. President biden made it clear the u. S. Has now assessed that israel was not responsible for that Deadly Gaza Hospital explosion. But of course he summit, with arab leaders was counseled as a result of that blast. What always achieved, in what were the big messages from the u. S. President to all parties involved in this war . I suppose there were three objectives for bidens truncated visit. First of all to show israel that the u. S. Really does have at its back. I suppose that was evidence literally as President Biden got off the Air Force One on to the tarmac at the airport and gave a hug to Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu, and president isaac herzog, the other big message was to israels foes and the reason, principally iran and its proxy in southern level, hezbollah. To not try to exploit the current war between israel and hamas to try to attack israel. There has been steadily rising tensions, still simmering, its getting a little bit hotter each day it seems with attacks from hezbollah on israeli positions, either attempted infiltration, or anti tank missiles being fired toward the israelis, and israel firing back as well. There have been casualties on the israeli side, and among hezbollah fighters. That is simmering, it is not boiled over yet. Not boiled over into a full bore Northern Front and escalation. It is getting steadily hotter on that Northern Front. The third and final thing, this was key, especially for americas other allies in the region, is to get something out of the israeli for the humanitarian situation which is getting worse by the day, inside the gaza strip. To that and he secured an agreement to allow for 20 trucks to go from egypt, into the gaza strip, carrying humanitarian supplies, namely food, water, and medicine. Fuel was pointedly not included. Israel says that when fuel does go into the gaza strip, it is stolen by hamas and other militant groups. It doesnt want to do anything to help feed the hamas warming. Of course against this backdrop today, President Biden and a primetime address from the oval office, is due to speak to the american people, to persuade them of the need to provide military assistance, not just to israel. But to ukraine, also to taiwan, and to fortify the border between the u. S. And mexico. What President Biden is trying to do, is not just get extra money, the stock of Ten Billion Dollars extra military existence to israel, thats pretty much a bipartisan issue. That would sail through congress. The issue really is the money for ukraine, which many republicans have gone cold on supporting. With us sums of money. Theres tops a 60 billion dollars. By including things like support for taiwan, support for israel, and support for fortifying the border between the u. S. And mexico. President biden will hope there will be enough there to enable, people lawmakers, who descend from some of those funding arrangements, to hold their noses and a vote and allow that package to go through. Rosemary . Ellen got can, bringing us that headline report from london. More protests across the middle east the turkish capital of ankara. [crowd chanting] the u. S. Consulate in adama in Southern Turkey is closed until further notice. Amid the protests. The State Department is issued advisories throughout the region. Both the United States and canada are warning its citizens against traveling to lebanon, due to the deteriorating Security Situation there. Protests also in jordan, cnns nada bashir reports. Friend yet another Night Hundreds of people have gathered here in amazon to protest and solidarity the palestinian. People to protest against the ongoing israeli air phrase railing down on the gaza strip. This is taking place quite close to the israeli we saw yesterday hundreds gathering in this very same area, some protests there has been an increase in security president s here, as weve been seeing, the crowd is enormous. They are this is taking place on the very same day King Abdullah of jordan was set to host a subset with President Joe Biden, and the president of egypt as well. And the president of the Palestinian Authority, that summit was called off after the devastating horrifying attack at their the hospital gowns. Well it sparked a moment of average, amongst the jordanian population, amongst the arab population more widely, and hearing gordon the protests are trying to understand, 50 are palestinian, or palestinian descent. This is a core to essential to jordanian identity, repeated condemnation from the Jordanian Royal family against israel air straight in gaza. Of course we are hearing repeated calls for an end to this war, and so the violations in the Rights And Freedoms of the palestinian people. As the airstrikes continue, we are anticipating these protests happening in sorting, and across the arab world will only continue to grow and both sides, and intensity. Cnn a man jordan. Coming up instead of a chaotic rampage, how masses killers were carrying out a plan, maps, and other materials found on dead hamas fighters show the killers in israel knew exactly where to go, in shocking detail. Cnn investigates. Welcome back everyone. Hamas video maps and documents obtained by cnn, are revealing just how much hamas killers knew about the israeli communities where they slaughtered 1400 people. The material includes details attack plans, specific information about security and homes, even the best rooms to hold hostages. The caution you some of the images are graphic, a cnn Matthew Chance shows us the chilling evidence. Cnn as gather chilling new insights and details on the mass assault inside israel. Including disturbing video taken by the attackers themselves. As they rampage israeli homes. Killing on site. And then being killed. [speaking in a nonenglish language] searches of their dead bodies revealing a trove a highly specific hamas battle plans. Including the detailed maps, shared with cnn by these really government. Showing communities near gaza, like afar as a, targeted by the way these were the terrifying scenes inside. This is a mass gunman recorded themselves moving freely through the gardens of israeli homes. Code red, code red. The israeli Loudspeaker Broilers and hebrew. Punctuating the sporadic gunfire. After the attack, israelis First Responder saw bullet holes in bloodstains and room after room. In what looks like a coldly methodical killing spree. While hundreds of israelis were killed, some israeli communities managed to repel the mass gunman, and save lives. A kibbutz also near gaza, residents pushed back at home as attack. And found documents of the bodies of the militants they killed, with disturbing highly accurate intelligence on their homes, including precise numbers of armed guards there. Regional defense force, at least 20 residents one document reads. And ten soldiers. They knew basically the size of our security team, they knew about other three or four entrances to the convicts. It sounds like they knew everything . They knew everything. Where the generators are. They knew where the armory is. They knew about roads around the compass. Security footage shows how the mass gunman killed an israeli outside the kibbutz gates. Before being repelled. Even with detailed intelligence on their targets, not every home as objective was achieved. Nearby kibbutz sad was never even attacked, that we now have documentary evidence, that hamas intended to the maximum possible Human Casualties there. And to hold hostages. A highly detailed street map found on another hamas gunman, obtained by cnn, shows individual buildings, identified and assessed for the military value. The communal kitchen for example, is described as the main place suitable for holding hostages. Inside the card room, the soldiers must be neutralized, the must instruction say. While the kibbutz Dental Clinic is designated a place for a first aid, for both enemies and friends. Israeli residents have said they also found that level of detail astounding. Shockingly, the details are very accurate, the map is a map of our kibbutz. It is very accurate. Its horribly accurate. If they had come to your settlement, they wouldve known exactly where to go, exactly where to cause the most damage. . Yes we now see that they their goal is to take hostages, including children. Israeli Officials Say they found other documents to, that Advise Attackers to kill anyone posing a threat or causing a distraction, to keep captives away from arms, or means of suicide. And to use them as cannon fodder. It is a dark turn. Even for a group seen here parading before the attacks thats come to symbolize the uncompromising face of palestinian resistance, and violence against israel. Israeli Officials Say a document referencing i. S. I. S. And alqaeda, which cnn has not been able to authenticate was found on one hamas gunman, killed during this attack on kibbutz barry, the document given to cnn by senior Israeli Government official praises jihad against and crusaders. I was really Officials Say that is evidence amassed is increasingly influenced by global jihadi ideology, an assessment many experts have dismissed. But in the wake of the unprecedented brutality of these attacks, u. S. Officials tell cnn, the hamas threat may now be reassessed. Matthew chance, cnn israel. There is a glimmer of hope for palestinians in gaza who are desperate for humanitarian assistance. Now officials indicate that aid thats been sitting across the border in egypt could start coming in soon. We will have details on that, on the other side of the break.

The u. S. Now says intelligence suggests israel is not responsible for the explosion as officials in gaza have claimed. Israel has laid out evidence that it says shows a misfire by the militant Group Islamic jihad caused the blast. An Explanation Aback by u. S. President joe biden who cited, u. S. Intelligence. Mr. Biden who is now back in the u. S. After his high stakes visit to israel, at the this to say about the vast was speaking to israeli Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu. Im deeply saddened and outraged by the explosion at the hospital in gaza yesterday. And based on what ive seen it appears as though it was done by the other team. And not you. But there is a lot of people out there who are not sure. That uncertainty helped fuel angry protests across the middle east as many took to the streets shouting anti israeli slogans, following the hospital bossed. Meantime egypts president has now agreed to open the Garofalo Crossing Into Gaza to allow in humanitarian aid, this came during a phone call with the u. S. President , who says up to 20 trucks are expected to cross the border possibly on friday. And joining me now from tel aviv, israel Defense Forces international spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel peter lerner. Appreciate you talking with us. Good morning rosemary. Before the break we saw Matthew Chances chilling report on the detailed intelligence hamas militants use to attack israel on october 7th, even down to the number of guards at each kibbutz, and the layout of homes and how many people lived in each house. Does the idf have any idea where and how hamas got this intelligence . Rosemary this goes to show the magnitude of hamass industry of terror. The way they utilize all of the forces of their government. All of their capabilities, to gather intelligence, mapped out individual locations, points of reference, how to operate, where to breach, and thats just the intelligence gathering capability thats been exposed in matthews report. Indeed, when we look at the broader aspect we see much wider asked issues, the training the equipment they had. Where did they get all their tools . There is indeed a lot of questions that need to be asked about how exposed we are. If you go into google maps you, can find roads, routes, they attacked civilian communities. Places like your regular suburb of, your regular farm area. Where are there you are in the world, they have access to open source they have access to people, there may have been breaches of information exposed. Indeed this needs to be investigated. Our after action, once we have rid the world of this terrorist organization, there will be an extensive investigation that will look into how they were so well prepared to butcher and murder so many people. Of course in the wake of that Deadly Gaza Hospital exposing on tuesday. U. S. President called for rigorous review, now the u. S. Has says israel is not responsible. But many in the middle east say they are not convinced, how do you change their perception. Is that even possible in the midst of war . I think the biggest challenge is opposing hamass manipulation, mass manipulation, of sentiment. This is a call for caution for all people that are following the situation. Not to listen to what hamas is saying. This is an organization that butchers babies in their bedrooms. They will have no problem lying to journalists, or fabricating stories, or inventing stories. I would say yes when you try to take out of the real world to the media reflection of whats happening in the real world, theres a lot of caution and suspicion that needs to be taken regarding hamas and the reports that are coming out from gaza. Everything is under control there. Just like in north korea. There is no free press, free coverage. When it filters over beyond the region, then the World Networks that have a huge responsibility to make sure they have all of the facts, if things that hamas is saying ignite mass protests. Because of something that didnt happen. Like the explosion in the hospital. It was caused by palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that malfunction. Then we have to be very aware, even afraid, that that eventuality can happen. Goes to show in this day and age of the media saturated, or social media saturated world, how much responsibility individuals have, how much responsibility we have as responsible organizations, bodies, how much responsibility the media has. In convening what is actually happening on the ground. In order to contain fabrications, misinformation, and disinformation. That can be aggravated in order to create, a much broader regional distress. Weve talked about rosemary, over the tax on the border with lebanon by hezbollah. We know for that, he ran is trying to aggravate the situation. Theres an interest to make a broader issue out of this this attack against our people. We need to be very focused, from our perspective try to contain, the factual accurate, be timely, and this is always the challenge, when social media setting the paste, and we are trying to keep up with images that are traumatic, an extremely painful, and heartbreaking. But this is the responsibility of decent organizations, that want to reflect whats happening on the ground. That is the task weve take very seriously here at cnn. Israel Defense Forces lieutenant peter lerner, thank you so much for your time. We appreciate it. Thank you rosemary good day. Now to gaza where eight is still desperately needed. Israel kept the flow of food, electricity, and fuel into enclave at the beginning of the current crisis. Oh there is a warning that gaza is running seriously and dangerously low on the fifth most basic of the supplies. Becky anderson has more. This is where International Aid should be flowing into gaza. But its been eerily quiet. Vital lifesustaining humanitarian aid has been piling up, stuck in no mans land on the wrong side of the border while agency Sound The Alarm on an accelerating humanitarian crisis. Now there are signs of a breakthrough. On wednesday, hours after a deadly blast at a hospital in gaza, u. S. President joe biden landed on his wartime visit to israel. Hours later, he delivered these remarks. I asked the israeli cabinet, who i met with for sometime this morning, to agree to the delivery of lifesaving humanitarian assistance to civilians in gaza. Based on the understanding that there will be inspections, and that the aid shall go to civilians, not to hamas. The humanitarian assistance can begin to move from israel to gaza. But in a statement wednesday, israel said it will not allow any aid into gaza from its own territory until all hostages held by hamas are released. Following the announcement, i asked the Foreign Minister for his reaction. We are working for a ceasefire that would allow the delivery of humanitarian supplies to gaza. So, talk of ceasefire is continuing. Top of allowing supplies is continuing. Top of a decision to end the war is continuing. Were all working towards that, and any step in that direction is President Biden though says he is working with the u. N. To get aid trucks moving as quickly as possible. But even when that flow of aid can begin, its route has been badly damaged by israeli airstrikes. Theres a long, mileslong convoy of humanitarian assistance between irish and rafa with trucks on the side of the road awaiting the possibility of entering the rafah crossing of the last few days has been bombed four times. Theres a lot of infrastructure that has been destroyed, obviously, the lack of fuel, lack of water, the lack of food is going to compound the situation. Difficult is moving around due to security, but also due to blockages from rubble, et cetera, unexploded munitions. For gaza citizens, the deadly waiting game means lifelines are fast running out. The palestinian Health Ministry says hospitals are collapsing without fuel. And the World Food Programme warns that shops in gaza will run out of food in the mere days. [speaking in a nonenglish language] translator there is no water. There is no water at all. Medicines for children, food, drinking, there are no supplies at all in the gaza strip. Its not just me. All of the gaza strip is suffering. All of the families in gaza are suffering. Becky anderson, cnn, tel aviv. Beneath gaza lay hundreds of miles of secret tunnels if and when israel sends grand troops into gaza this is probably where they will. The power goes out and we still have wifi to do our homework. And thats a good thing . Great in my book who are you . No power . No problem. Introducing stormready wifi. Now you can stay reliably connected through Power Outages with unlimited cellular data and up to 4 hours of battery backup to keep you online. Only from xfinity. Home of the xfinity 10g network. Welcome back everyone, for any Israeli Ground incursion into gaza will eventually have to deal with what the idf calls, but gaza metro. It is a vast network of tunnels beneath gaza. Clearing them out poses an especially thorny tactical problem for israeli troops. Cnns tom ford explains. As much as we hear about the tunnels under gaza there really arent many photos or eyewitness accounts as to exactly what they are complain to the importance of them. Generally many of them seem to be dug by hand. Relatively small, and reinforced with concrete, so they can easily be collapsed. How big is this network . Think about this, gus itself is only about 25 by six miles, yet the indication from some experts, there may be more than 300 miles of tunnels underneath that. The depth, unknown. Maybe its a few meters, maybe its a whole lot more. Many of them appear fairly cramped. Possible uses . Hiding command centers. Whether its capital, rocketry, and yes even hostages. Secret movement of key hamas figures. They might be in this part of the area, and go to this part of the area and the undetected because they cant be spied by satellite, or people who are trying to look with your arms or anything else. They would represent a safe place in the small area. Relatively safe, in that a lot of conventional weapons would not easily penetrate this. But in fact you might have to bring in bigger, bunker buster bombs. If someone wanted to go through the reimbursement of all of the earth to get underneath. That is why this is a focus, not only for moss, before these rallies too. Christopher oleary joins me now from new york. He is the Senior Vice President for Global Operations at the safari group. Until last month he was the director of Hostage Recovery for the u. S. Government. Appreciate you talking with us. Happy to be here. Israel believes 199 hostages are being held in gaza. Hamas says they have more than 200, people happy even 250 hostages. However mandy they are holding, that is a lot of people, who need food, water, and other basic necessities. What conditions would they be living under, right now . Do you assume they are all being held in the underground tunnels . So traditionally speaking, hamas has treated there are hostages well. Theyre your currency for hamas. If you reflect back to one of their more infamous cases where they took israeli soldier, they held him for older five years, but then traded him years later, for 100 palestinian prisoners. It is in their interest to treat the hostage as well. Secondly, because there is International Hostages who have dual citizenship from places like the United States, the uk, france, and others. There is an International Call to ensure that they are being treated well. These assumption would be, they are treating them well. Hamas like other groups who have demonstrated a capacity and almost a profession in Hostage Taking over the years. Have this down to a science. Although they are not they will act in a rational way this way. It is transactional. Given all of those complexities, how will it be possible to secure their safe release. What is the process, as the United States works together on this delicate diplomatic mission, evolving hostages from more than 40 countries, including an unknown number of americans. I would say there is a couple things going on, contemporaneously. Number one israel and the United States that have surged intelligence resources to assist and other international partners. Theyre looking to fully identify each hostage, going through that initial video feed from each of the captures, some of which was taken on other cell phones, some of it was broadcast by hamas. All of that data is being exploited, they are trying to fully identify each hostage. They are trying to identify hamas members, illuminate the network we call it. To try to find out who theyre connected to. What their historic bet down locations are. To try to find out where the hostages may be taken. As i said, this is an active war zone. Its a massive amount of hostages, there is nothing like it in the modern era that we can point to. Now we have seen various reports that suggest thomas is offering to release the hostages, perhaps the women and children, if israel stops bombing gaza. How real is an offer like that, from an organization like hamas . How do you negotiate that, when israel is calling for the total destruction of hamas . So going through legitimate partners, like the qataris, who have a powerful voice both inside gaza and with hamas, and have legitimacy throughout the middle east. But they have demonstrated real good faith with the United States over the last few years. They have been leading the charge to assist the United States, with the taliban, and delegate negotiations as well as with the iranians, more recent negotiations. They have really demonstrated a desire and propensity to be involved in conflict resolution. Thats why theyre looking to get involved, hamas cannot ignore their involvement. It is a reasonable request to release women and children. Its also a reasonable request to release any foreign nationals who might have a dual passport. They have been indications by hamas theyre willing to do that. Also anybody that is wounded, traditionally, any arms conflict all of these things would be done. If hamas wants to be taken seriously, they need to move forward with these actions, if not they will not be considered a viable partner in an ingratiation. Christopher oleary thank you for joining us we appreciate it. Thank you for having me. After failing to win a second vote, u. S. Republican congressman jim jordan vows to stay in the race, to be speaker of the house. We will have details for you next welcome back everyone, as the Biden Administration grapples with wars in new rain and gaza and a potential new government such down next month, the u. S. House of representatives remains in limbo. Unable to do any work until the elected new speaker. Two weeks after republicans ousted kevin mccarthy. Well on wednesday, conservative republican congressman jim jordan lost a second round of voting. As more republicans voted against him. Despite the loss, jordans bout to stay in the rate, a third round of voting is expected in the coming hours. Meantime, some republicans are pushing a resolution that would grant more power to interim speaker Patrick Mchenry, until a speaker is elected. Cnns senior political analyst, joins me now for more on this political chaos. Always good to have you with us, to sort through this. The house remains paralyzed, as republicans again failed to elect a new speaker, jim jordan losing a second vote. Planning a third. In the coming hours in fact. Noon today. How will that likely go . Does he have a path forward here . Well you know, we have used the word unprecedented and unprecedented amount of times. Since donald trump emerged as the de facto leader of the republican party. We are once again and an unprecedented situation, unprecedented level chaos, unprecedented vote to vacate the chair and remove a speaker. Jim jordan i think is has very long odds of ever being speaker of the house. His strategy was to bring this to the floor force his opponents to vote publicly against an, and try to turn the full Fire Hose Force of the mega Trump Movement and all of its allies and Conservative Media against them. Try to break their will. And eventually grind them down into supporting him. The pressure that he has applied has into anything only solidified the opposition against him. Youve had members publicly, rip republican members publicly complain about death threats, threatening messages to their families, after voting against jordan. A reminder of how much our politics has changed in the trump era. And how much the threat of violence has become woven into our politics in the trump area. One of which i think is gonna create a further for jim jordan and deep in the suspicion of him from some members of the caucus. Weve seen republican frustration growing. Some even calling themselves dysfunctional. Others as you mentioned, getting death threats, or refusing to wear a sport jordan. Its incredible. What happens if he loses a third vote, how likely is It Republicans will decide to go for the option of expanding the powers of interim speaker Patrick Mchenry as a way out of this chaos at least. Can that actually be done . Well first, lets keep in mind, in many ways, the most remarkable thing here is not that jim jordan is going to fall short. Its that roughly 90 of house republicans, have been willing to elevate to the speakership, a member of congress who was the most intimately involved, not only is a supporter, but as a collaborator and participant in trumps effort to subvert the 2020 election and overturn the results. There was no one as liz cheney said, who knew more about Donald Trumps plans than jim jordan. And yet that is not disqualifying for 200 house republicans. Very similar to what we are seeing in the republican president ial race. I think that jordans inclination is to try to keep pushing forward on the theory that i mentioned, using the conservative ecosystem in the Mega Movement to grind down appointments. I suspect that the tolerance and patience within the conference for that kind of behavior is going to diminish, a road very quickly. He can see substantially more the factions if he goes past a third ballot and potentially even on a third ballot. Could they expand the power of the temporary speaker, Patrick Mchenry . Potentially. I think theyre gunnery republicans are dubious or doing that, they will need democratic votes in all likelihood to do that, which means theyre gonna have to get some concessions to democrats. It could be awhile before we see a solution to this, although that seems like the likely sway out, because even if jordan steps aside. Its there certainly not apparent that there is someone immediately unifying the republican conference and replace him. Extending the power of the temporary speaker might be the path of least resistance. Absolutely well watch to see, Ron Brownstein many thanks for joining us as always appreciated. Thanks for having me. The man long suspected in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway in 2005, finally confessed to killing her. And disposing of her body.
