don t want to have the next terry mccollough but if they keep voting for big government socialism they re going to go the same way as terry mcauliffe. strong words there by steve scalis of the republican party. all this is happening as nancy pelosi has made clear her intention she is going to forge ahead releasing a final text of joe biden s roughly $7.5 trillion spending bill despite opposition from democrats in the senate like joe mansion. pelosi is still stressing, shannon, the need to quickly pass both bills which has lead many of our sources to believe that we re probably going to see voice on infrastructure and social spending at some point this week, shannon. we have been toll that many times. we ll see this. this has been a crazy time so we ll see. another significant win for republicans last night, we carried a bit of the speech, winsome sears making history as the very first black woman lieutenant governor of virginia woolf. what you tell us about her and she s taking
conversation with him. i ve spoken with senator manchin. i ve probably spoken to him for 30 minutes my whole life. he s not going to tell me where his lines are. the president came and said on one point, $7.5 trillion, which is half of what the progressives wanted. on these priorities, i m convinced i can get senator manchin and 50 senators to vote for it. i believe he can. i believe we will deliver it. it has to be flexible. but here s what people are going to remember. democrats got every kid in this country preschool. democrats got child care covered. democrats made the largest investment in climate. that s what people remember. it won t be what did they say? that is going to be forgotten. i don t know about that. your show may not. your point is well made.
winds, but it s at the expense of the american person and american people and american tax dollars. they ve $2 trillion worth of programs, but it s actually $4 trillion because they include the supposed expiration dates that they know will draw in new constituents or maintain those on the press of left that are wondering if they should flee the independence approval waiting to make rating for the present have dropped by double digits. and they know that anyone in power will not let these programs lapse. it affects a child s credits, paid family leave, it includes medicaid expansion, and obamacare subsidies. these are small programs. it will in place the cost to double in the inflation the kennedy knows more about, it will be more like triple the amount. that is our dollars. kayleigh: it all added up. we did it for you guys. here s what we are spending this year. it is up to $7.5 trillion.
i won t put a pin in the number because that number is moving. what i m hearing if i m reading you correctly is that you would be willing to move below $3.5 trillion, you re willing to move the pin. the number has never been fixed in stone. what can be done and i think one of your reporters just discussed it, was the possibility of, you know, we re talking about spending over ten years when we talk $3.5 trillion. that s something that seems to be very lost in the messaging. that s $350 billion a year. take a look at defense spending. that s $750 billion a year. we don t talk about that as $7.5 trillion. so what you can do is, for example, i m a champion of both the pre-k piece and the free community college and hbcu tuition. you can trim that to a program that would be five or six years, thus reducing the number. let s see if it works. then i have a feeling, when people see the engine that is pre-k and education for young
work her magic and get them all on the same page? charles, the way i would say, it comes down to those that believe that we should follow joe biden and those that want to obstruct biden s agenda. 210 house democrats want to pass biden s agenda. a few holdouts. they need to get on board. joe biden won the election. he deserves to have his agenda enacted. charles: well, another part of this viewing spectacle has been growing speculation that ultimately something will happen on the social spending side but it won t be 3.5 trillion. is there a number below there where you saw you draw the line? you comprised at 3, 2 1/2, 1 1/2. where do you say no, absolutely we can t go any lower? i don t want to give you a red line. we re open to negotiation. i want to put the number in context over the next ten years, the it is economy will have about $300 trillion in gdp growth. it will have 7.5 trillion in defense.
