actually saying it. before the election, there were people that even law enforcement had to arrest because of so-called fraud after an election administrator had told them to register, and they were saying, this is a waste of money. this is a waste of taxpayer resources. this is just a ploy that desantis is doing. i m not actually surprised because if you also remember after the 2020 election, a lot of times this time frame is when republicans launch these voter suppression tactics so that they set a foundation leading up not so close to the election but in the or shall we say they launch their trial balloons. so, daniel, in this context, this is desantis setting his stage every single day for what people think will be a presidential run. chris sununu, who is also someone who people think will run, he says the republican
was in office. two other trial balloons, spiral balloons you know what i m saying what is a trial balloons and nothing was done about it. what do you say to that? china is so good at being so secretive that was missed during that time? these things are pretty visible. president trump is denying that. i do not know exactly what the intelligence will show. these types of things happen. you have got to have strength. they are spying on us with tiktok. with human intelligence. they are acquiring land. make sure they are spying on america are not prosecuted and expelled look at the open border policy with anybody to come to
so far, he appeared like he has been loyal. he hasn t floated any trial balloons or anything like that that we can discern. his only way to the speakership is for kevin mccarthy s bid for the speakership to implode. if you are steve scalise, it s not looking bad for that plan. there s nothing wrong with that. right? they have apparently a testy but good relationship. he said, i m going to support you until the end, until it s your call to bail out. if he bails out, then i think scalise has always been the obvious alternative. right. former congressman dent said i don t know if it was yesterday or a week ago. i don t remember when it was. let s assume it was yesterday. he thought theoretically it was going to end up with scalise. the republican party is rooted in the south now. they are not in california. beyond the mistrust of kevin mccarthy and all that. geographically, it makes more
0 i don t think voting tonight is productive. let people work more. reporter: in a positive sign from mccarthy, some of the opponents came out sounding positive, including scott perry of pennsylvania sounded that he said talks had been productive as well as congressman chip roy. they had been asking for more sway over the speakership. some of them had asking to encourage mccarthy s super pac to stay out of certain primaries. they did agree to do that. that may have won some. his path, very narrow. there are at least four republicans who are almost certainly going to vote against him. they absolutely will not vote for kevin mccarthy, including matt gaetz. he can only look forward to lose four republican votes. one more says they will not vote for him, mccarthy cannot get there, which is why these talks are so critical, expected to continue through tonight until tomorrow. the house reconvenes at that time. he had given up a lot to get the votes he has gotten thus far. how much mo
no official date has been nailed down. if and when it happens, you can expect the typical rollout that would accompany that type of an announcement. i do want to just take everyone back to the trump presidency, though, yasmin, and remind people that dates, ideas were floated kind of as trial balloons and then the former president would make a final decision himself as one of the sources said, he s his own man. he does his own thing. again, this timeline could slide. but one senator who is familiar with his thinking, yasmin, says that mr. trump will announce sooner rather than later. the senator saying mr. trump is, quote, ready to go and would be shocked if he doesn t run, this senator believes he is definitely going to do it. that just takes you inside the framing of how the former president is approaching this right now and i think you make another really important point. look, we have to see what happens on tuesday. all signs are pointing to the fact that gop candidates have a lot o
