joining me live from capitol hill is fox senior correspondent chad pergram. chad anything surprise you? we expected it to pass but by this margin? pete, it was a robust vote for a bill that no one liked, a bipartisan coalition from both parties supported the bill, but more democrats supported the bill than gop members. 149 republicans voted yes, 165 democrats voted yes. house minority leader hakeem jeffries touted democratic support for the bill. earlier today, 29 house republicans voted to default on our nation s debt and against an agreement that you negotiated, extreme maga republicans attempted to take control of the house floor. democrats took it back. the bill now goes to the senate. conservatives are criticizing the bill there. mike lee and rand paul want the senate to consider an alternative. rather than offering substantive solutions toss tackle the root causes of our fiscal woes, it appears to be a p paltive pill. it s a bad look for membering, an advocation
bipartisan cocktail of votes to pass. but there s bipartisan opposition. i m not sure what in the bill people are concerned about. it s the largest savings of 1.1 trillion we have ever had. number votes he might be. i haven t. necessary to do to make sure. you have been here a long time. any time there is an agreement with two parties, there s always two parties who vote for it at the end. minority leader hakeem jeffries say democrats will hold up their end of the bargain. we also are committed to making sure occurs that the house republicans keep their promise to produce at least 150 votes, period, full stop. that means at least 68 democrats must vote yes. but g.o.p. votes could be on thin ice. i think the no votes are going to increase as more people know more about this bill. there s going to be some very sore feelings around here. we voted for the speaker to make good deals not do what the democrats wanted. conservatives are seething at mccarthy. the
donald trump and those around him have seen the fbi as a threat. they have taken a blow torch to try to tear down that threat. it s really unfortunate, the motion that the fbi is some sort of leftist cabal. it s crazy. martha: devin nunes that now works for trump media is here. first to the justice correspondent david spunt. good afternoon. trace, good afternoon. we re talking about what is called an fd 1023 form that is a standard form that fbi agents use to write down allegations during an interview. congressman comer, chair of the house oversight committee and senator chuck grassley want a specific 1023 form they say contains an allegation that then vice president biden accepted a bribe for a policy change. they have asked for it multiple times in a subpoena. they actually asked for the physical document. both held a phone call with fbi director christopher wray at 1:30 this afternoon. we re told that fbi director christopher wray offered to allow both men and perhaps
this deal fails completely. this is a career defining vote for every republican. this group will oppose it. we will continue to fight it today, tomorrow and no matter what happens, there s going to be a reckoning. while you were celebrating memorial day, all of our men and women that gave their lives for this great nation and you spent time with your family and friends, this town was cutting another crap deal that will put you more in debt with no real changes whatsoever. that was byron donalds. he s here in moment. first to chad pergram that just spoke with speaker mccarthy. chad? good afternoon. kevin mccarthy believes he will have the votes. but some republicans are skeptical. he is struggling to sell this plan to some members of the gop. the idea that we fought so hard to get those work requirements and welfare reform, or the idea that you can make the president, if he wants to add a new regulation, that now he has to offset that, we haven t had that before. s
majority of both republicans, 149 and democrats 165 got it across the finish line and 70 goppers voted against it. 46 democrats giving it thumbs down. leader mccarthy and his leadership claimed victory. this is fabulous. i thought it would be hard, almost impossible. we won public narrative with support of the american people. between president biden and speaker mccarthy, won from start to finish. griff: president biden who vowed not to compromise did just that. this agreement meets the testing according to president biden. rescinding 30 billion in unspent covid money, keeping nondefense spending flat for next couple years. now it heads to the senate, four days to get it done and already decent on the right. i cannot support it and will vote no absent material changes that will render this bill something more than what it is, a fake response to burden some debt. griff: senators may offer amendments like senator mike lee and whether they will slow things up as we get
