people. tip o neill got along with ronald reagan. ted kennedy got along with orrin hatch. joe biden got along with john mccain. nancy pelosi got along with john boehner. ruth bader ginsburg got along with antonin scalia. all we are asking is house republicans to get along with each other. first time in 100 years there is no congress because of ambition or power grabs, dysfunction, and this is not a partisan criticism. understand this. it s embarrassing, it s dysfunctional. it s dangerous, it s stupid. those are words that republicans have used. yep, we still do not have a u.s. house of representatives as the republican deadlock enters a fourth day. we have new reporting about another potential deal in the works that could give kevin mccarthy the gavel, but no speaker, still. i mean, how many votes have there been. no speaker still. i think we re up to about ten now. willie, what great points. ruth bader ginsburg and justice scalia got along. tip o neill and ronald reagan
speaker kevin mccarthy said the talks are, in his view, making headway. i think we re making progress. we re all working together to find a solution. the new concessions first reported by cnn include what was once a red line for mccarthy, agreeing to propose a rules change that would allow just one member of the house to call for a vote to oust the sitting speaker. we re learning this morning that the new concessions are not going over well with some gop moderates who mccarthy cannot afford to lose. he needs all those votes. we re following all of the latest developments on capitol hill this morning. let s begin with cnn chief congressional correspondent manu raju. so a lot of talks underway last night. you had a late one. more talk this is morning. where does everything stand? reporter: highly uncertain at the moment. it may happen or collapse. we simply don t know. he still doesn t have the votes to become the speaker of house. last night re reported about the key c
not accepting the counsel of his real advisers, not the imposters, but those who were actual advisers, not just yes people wanting to tell him exactly what he wants to hear, even when there s clearly no evidence to support what he wanted to hear. but we have heard about the attempt to exploit the legal process, the department of justice, local election officials, and a relentless pressure campaign to what he called an attempt to stop the steal. the fact that nothing had actually been stolen, i mean, details. details, it seems. i ll leave you all to decide whether the hearings so far have threaded the needle or maybe moved your own needle. but we are seven hearings in and we re learning tonight that the january 6th committee s upcoming eighth hearing will turn to the number 187. that s 187 minutes where the president of the united states was radio silent. i mean, crickets. well, at least publicly. but what exactly was he doing for over three hours? after the capitol had been b
