tonight on the reidout are you aware of any members of congress seeking pardons? mr. gaetz and mr. brooks. mr. gohmert asked for one as well. mr. perry asked for a pardon, too, i m sorry. mr. perry, did he speak to you directly? yes, scott perry did ask for a pardon and new reporting sheds new light on why he would have wanted one. his text messages following the 2020 election reveal the integral role he played in trump s plot to overturn joe biden s victory. also tonight, the koch network goes all in for nikki haley. apparently, they see her as a mainstream alternative to trump, but history suggests she s very much a radical right winger in sheep s clothing. but we begin tonight with what has become a new pattern in donald trump s pitiful defenses for his many, many, many, many legal woes. it is no longer enough to attack judges or prosecutors. which as we have all seen and heard, trump clearly has no problem doing. but now, he s shown how small a man he real
u.s. commander there s this moral ambiguity, not on college campuses, the elites, there is no moral confusion here. if a u.s. commander ever suggested or ever moved troops in a hospital to hide from the enemy, they would immediately be court-martialed. they would be taken out of the command structure of the united states military. they would be court-martialed. they would be dishonorably discharged. if just one did that. with hamas, that is their strategy. we knew from the day the attacks came, they were going to go. they were going to hide behind civilians. they were going to hide in schools. they were going to hide in the hospitals. we knew that. and it s exactly, willie, what it s exactly what s happened. again, wall street journal editorial page talking about it in their lead editorial, talking about the fact that today in gaza, hamas terrorists used the same war crime tactics that isis did in the battle of mosul. only now observers rush to apologize for it. when is
Leadership has said, lets not say anything just yet. A lot of rankandfile members created this problem, its your problem, you deal with it, thats the sentiment. I think that we may not, to congresswoman edwards point, we may not get to this point because the key is that former President Trump does not want another ugly speakership fight. Marjorie Taylor Greene knows that. I think she has really boxed herself in. The thinking in trump world, from what i am hearing, is that Speaker Johnson is as good as it gets. They will not get a more conservative speaker, so why do this . Six, seven months before an election . There was a towel, because ladies and gentlemen, i watched marjorie Taylor Greenes interview so you would not have to. At the very end of the interview, where she says if he does not do so, he will be vacated, what she said after that was, there are special
be asking the most concerning question, what has mike johnson made a deal to do? what has he promised he will give them in the future. and this is why we have to remove mike johnson from the speakership because he has made a deal. this was a terrible mistake however that doesn t mean that i support what i would consider to be not the most prudent action, right now, we re six months before an election. we ve got a two or three vote margin. there s a far greater degree of uncertainty in that situation. then there was back in september so that was a house freedom caucus chair, bob good. but clearly there isn t much of an appetite for another speakership fight and the chaos that came with it will there be a floor vote to oust johnson? what what s your take? i expect marjorie taylor greene will force a vote in the coming weeks. as you mentioned, it could be as soon as today, but i expect it probably will happen after the house returns from recess, perhaps in a week
not be able to pass this. this is a huge test for mccarthy and also they do check before they do a deal that they can actually get most of these members. yeah, the democrats will have to compensate getting some of their members to vote for this, for the republicans who will not support it. also hearing from chip roy, dan bishop as well. but if we remember from the speakership fight, those 15 votes, part of the compromise was the single vote of a member who could propose a resolution to vacate the chair. is the disappointment or anger or any way you want to describe what we are seeing from those on the right potent enough that this jeopardizes mccarthy s speakership? are you seeing anything there this early? we haven t heard of people, including bob good, threaten that overnight since the deal was announced. so that s pretty good news for
