Mr. Mccarthy youve heard me talk about the upcoming freshman class. Half of the Incoming Freshman class will be women. Yvette harold is the first republican native American Woman elected to congress. Steve nee bice is the first iranian American Woman elected to congress. This makes me very proud as a republican. And as an american. It shows the party of lincoln is also continuing the legacy of the first black american to serve in congress, Joseph Rainey of south carolina. Rainey was born into slavery and even after gaining his freedom he received little education as a child. He was drafted by the confederacy but escaped and went to bermuda and started a business. After the war he moved back to georgetown, south carolina. With his family in 1867 he became chairman of the countys republican party. Just a few years later he was elected in 1870 and became the first black american in congress. Where he worked tirelessly, fought for civil rights, education, and Economic Opportunity for all.

And tried to frame or influence officials of his campaign, his Transition Team and President Trump himself. Those efforts to subvert President Trump and his administration have been nothing less, in my opinion, than treason. An attack on our Constitutional Republic, an attack on the American People. Their conspiracy in league with the democrat party, its leaders and the corporateowned leftwing National Media has reached the end game. We are at the conclusion of what has been a fouryear assault on donald trump. The culmination of first an 11month fbi investigation, then the baseless special counsel that resulted in exoneration for the president , then a specious, fraudulent impeachment led by the cynical and sinister capitol hill democrats. They are nothing less. And now a National Election that has amassed more irregularities, more anomalies, perhaps more fraud that will be focus of this evenings broadcast. We have a lineup of guests for you this evening to take up the president s figh
