world. and welcome to hannity. history on capitol hill tonighel ,republican lawmakers joininawg all 208 house democrats to remove kevin mccarthy as house speaker. to the first time in our nation's history. and mccarthy will not seeks speakership again. now, sources telling mt agaie au hour, some house republicans have been in contactblican withd have started an effort to draft former president donal ad to bee the next speaker. n toldi hat pres that president trump might be open to helpingid ort term the republican party, at least in the short term if necessarys ,if it's needed anyway. but here's former speaker mccarthy. earlier tonight. loo >> let's take a look. i believe i can continue to fight maybe in a different manner. i will not run for speaker again. i'll have the conference pick wie. today s i think today was a political decis. thingshe democratwa and i think that i think the things they have done in the past hurt the institution. and they just started removing ine and theycommitte just started doing the other things. and my fear is the institution fell today because you can't do the job if eight people, you have 94% or 96% of your entire conference, but eight people can partner with the whole other side. n? how do you govern? and for them to make a motion on because i made a decision for the country that they agreed with, but they choosee to do the othetor, that becomes a problem. >> now, this all went down after a motion to vacate was put forward by florida congressman matt gaetz, citing issues because of a recent bipartisan resolution, a c.r.gh to fund the government through ofd-november and a lac mid-nk an on a number of bills, appropriations billsions bil ant went forward with a move to oust speaker mccarthy. succesnts fell anyway, given gop the slim gop majority needed only a handful otherans to republicans to get it done. but now uncertainty reigns g io. supreme on capitol hill. in truth, gate s of the republicans, they did have legitimate complaints returning to regular order passing appropriations bills, single issuassing e, balanced budget amendment, term limits, all promise. icism, fair criticism. but many of those measures could have been deal bhoset, especially in the future, especially issues that would neve ould r have been law at this itme really came down to the fiscal in play here.e. the appropriations process, for example. but the question is this. and every every republican needs to be asking this tonight, was thiss the be strategic and tactical approach at thians moment? now, there were very, veryre viable alternatives, plans put together by freedom caucus members, people like congressman chip roy, who will join us tonight, and byron donalds and scott perry, for example. one plan cut well from them, cut spending by a whopping 8% and also had historic bordermeas measures attached, but was opposed by gatesurwas oppo, a fr republicans. and that didn't go far. that left chip roy kind. of speechless. that plan would have allowed more time needed e for the appropriations bills to be passed. and thede second option actually had a 30% cuta in discretionary30 spending.incd and included, by the way,ican the republican party's border bill, h.r. par two. that would have been a great alternative. that, again, wouldgrt altern hao resulted in the full 12 appropriations bills having been ations b on and hopefully passe so today, the question wpassede all was the nuclear option needed? was it worth it? e nuclea well, i can tell you right now, i don't know. time will certainly tell whether this is a good move or a bad move, but one realitypubl will not change. republicans have a minusculeican majority, whoever the speaker is, and it is made u spepakers, of despair. left groups ranging from moderate left to freedom caucus, cons. vativeof now, gates says that he was ripping the band-aid off the status quo in the washington swamp. but the house oversight committee chairman, jim jordan le swamp ,had a different take.t' >> let's hear him. on january third, we said the 118th congress is about three thingsee pass the bills t that need pass. do the oversight work that needs to be done. ne band stop the inevitable omns that comes from the united states senated statee right befe the holidays. kevin mccarthy has bee n rock solid on all three. we have passed the bills. we told the american people we would pass 87,000 irate agentshe that built that bill, passed parents bill of rights. that bill passed energ htyecurit legislation, passed border security, immigration enforcement legislatioy,n, the strongest bill ever to pass the congress passed earlie tr this year. >> we have done what we told we them we were going to dogo. anso >> all right. now, keep in mind, republicans hold a ninld e vote majority in one half of one third of the federal government making up that very slim majority as a coalitioslim majn of lawmakers. you got the freedom caucus, the tuesday, thursday, frida y group, the study group, along mr with moderate republicans, manay from districts that biden won bn in 20 2018, to be exact. to be now, bringing that group together on anything is not anan easy feat. but in eas the end republicans. let me warn you tonight, you will succeed or you will fail ll succe together. that is undeniable. wiill, mccarthy accomplished a lot, including a serious investigation into biden's bribert includiny laundering al, which is ongoing. an impeachment inquiry that is now picking up steam and investigation into biden's weaponized fbi and doj. fbi multiple major pieces of including a border security bill that i just mentioned, ment, to stop biden's plan to hire 80,000 new irs agents, a bill to stop big government restrictions on gas stoves and other appliancesernment on another bill to repeal the worst parts of the so called inflational the reducti. and that's just the tip of the iceberg. thbut now, without a speaker at all matters involving the houslving the e come to a gg halt. the gop investigations will bell . zero republican bills will be sent to the senatewill be ll and republican infighting that will take center stage, tsd which is exactly what democrats thd the media mo ta mob desperay want. and they want to continue for a long period of timant to cr e now, president trump, earlier today, even in the midst of what's goineaeven in t's g ia took time to post this on truth social. why is it that republicans are always fighting among themselves? whrepublicans ary aren't they ft the radical left democrats who are destroying our country ? oh, i happen to agree with the president. presre now a year away we are n from the single most pivotal election of our lifetime. it's all on the line , it's a. roying democrats are destroying the rule of law. oe, equalic t application of our laws is dead. and by, and, by th the way, as , donald trump and his family are no donald w being targeted s this country has never seen before. joe bider seen n and his family are shielded, protected around every turn by joe's weaponized, doj. the border is an absolute disaster nightmare.e, national security risk. our economy is disaster.e suff americans are suffering than in myinflat point lifetime. inflation is through the roof. gas pricesio t the roo are throf and going higher, by the way. and our commander in chiefy thes real significant cognitive issues that everybody the world can see because it's that transparent. he is neither physically nor mentally fit to serve this country. house republicans can't canse solve their differences behind closed doors. how about you ge ht in a room, you throw away your phone and mayb you e you in that roome order pizza and don't come out until you agre untile. approp knowing how important these appropriations bills were. i everrier criticism. why did the republicans take off the month of augus month t this may all turn out fine.ne, i'm not hitting the panic tonight. however, the american people's patiencet the , it will run out quickly here. and so the gop take my advice if you want. it seems a lot of people never take iwant, itt. be careful and you better get a new speaker quickly. democrat they want you inay complete disarray. they wan.t a distraction away from their failed policies and their feeblepo president. and they'd really love a few moderate republicans to peel a off and actually vote for a democrat for speaker. so will the gocratp behind the w speaker? will anyone even want the job woulnt will this end in a disas? wecannot answer that question. but time will tell. we expect a vote on t ato new speaker sometime next week. chairman jim jordan will join us in a momentin a. to first here with reaction, we have former speaker of the house fo speakerf thx news contw gingrich is with us, sir. welcome. let's get your overallith r, on this today. well, first, i think it's a very sad day because i thinki kevin mccarthy is one of the most talented leaders i've ever worked e ev with. i think that he accomplished an amazing amount for having a small majority and being having to take on both the senatetake o and the white . and i think this is really i a tragic outcome. this was a leader who both gained seats in 2020, gained 2 seats in 2022, increased the number of women members, increaser d the number of veterans, increased the number of minority members a ,and he had a vision forlet's be a better future. and let's be clear her here,e. you know, if if the university of georgia bulldogs were the number one team in the country right now, if you started a gameyou started r of the members of the offensive squad decided they werdee actually on the alabama side and began tackling your ow andn people, you probably get them off the field. well, think about what we sawt, today. 4% percent, 4% decided they werw morally superior or soellect intellectually pure, so patrioticalluay better that thee would side with the democrats. and that's what they didand th in order to defeat the entire 9 republican caucus, 96% of the republicans voted for mccarthy. 4% voted against him. from my as a longtime republican activist, there are traitorsme. all eight of them should, in fact, be primaried. they should all be drive n what of public life. what they did was to go to the other teamth to cause total chaos. we ought to be focusing on biden on t we ought to be focusing o on the economy. we ought to be focusing on the bordeughtr. ead yo instead, you're going to get a week or ten days of the media focusingu't a on republican disarray. it's an astonishingly destructive behavior by a handful of egocentric people who thinkin they're superior to 96% of the conference. look, i do think on the one on kevin side, let me let me analyze this more than anything else. it is hard to appreciate appry majorityard to that kevin mccarthy was working with. >> you have moderatewith.s libeo republicans, 18 of them, you know, in districtsf that fr joe biden. they want to keep their jobs. so wan they're not going to beo as conservative on a lot of these issues. so it's hardt of theue to bringl caucus like that together. it's like herding cats. i wouldn't the job. you couldn't pay me to do that job. there's noe job amount of moned take for that job. on the other hand, i do have a little frustration with kevin, too. why? with t hehe, as promised, go forward with the appropriations bills regular order, which, by the way, you broughty back you were speaker. that led, that to the first andt balanced budgets we had in decades on both ends. so you found way to get that done. why did they go away for all this when they should have? but he this fight was coming. ag why didn't they go awausy? look, let me answer two verydifn different levels. first of all, the house througlh regular order has passed 70% of the government in appropriations. the senate has approp passed zero.zero. so kevin actually was on a track and in the nexthey two weeks, assuming they can get around to it, they willpropi actually finish all of the appropriations. i think that was just baloneati second, all of theseiden 18 republicans and the biden districts, they actuallyct voted for the two conservative continuing resolutions you described earlier. they voted for them even though they were very conservative. who killed them? rie hard right. why did the hard right kill them? because they were against any continuingghcause th resolution. well, if you didn't want didn' the government closed, if you didn'tt want the military not to be paid, if you didn't want the border patrol didn' not to be paid, and the hardht say goint says to you,s i doing nothing, what are you going to do? and kevin did what you had to do what i would have done, frankly, in his case. but it wasn't the 18 biden districts. there was a problem. that's >> there was hard core, hard right people. and thosrde high right people want to go back home and explain why did they think why r. s bette now what they need to be held t their feet to the fire. why did they think ithre, wht ws better to be two solid conservative continuings. resolutions that, as you sointed out, include the border, includes deep spending cuts, did everything they claim for, you know, why they did it? because ultimately matt gaetz, who hates the let's be clear, he hates kevin mccarth, ar hy, y determined about it to find a way to get to toda.o today.y. let me be iti thinkled hi it's disgraceful and i hope they expelm him fromng the conference. >> i would have gone along. you had byron donalds freedom caucus member scott perry, freedom caucus member chip roy. he'll be on the show tonight. freedom caucus member you know ,they had two separate plans. they put togethe tr and you are 100% right. they were voted down by the conservativerivoted dos. that would have been the perfect bridge to get to. number one, have cuts, have border security cuts he in spending and get us to the holy grail, which waspropri the appropriations bills that would have been completed. that to meat t was the answer.t. and no, they went against it. i don't know why becausewhy. but consent consider. well, you do know why. consider the moderates a you described all voted for these veryll tough, very conservative bills. it was the hard right that voted against themainst th. and people back home want to take a look at how their member voted and askthe mr are just terminally stupid. do you do you prefer to cove?r everything screwed up? and in terms of the people who voted today with thee eight teds be clear, they're not republicans. they shouldn't, frankle not y, should in th i wouldn't if i were speaker, they wouldn't be in the conferenceconfer. >> i'd say to them, you proved to me you're hakeem jeffries. this is the conference ought fo to be for republicans more than sps as speaker. that doesn't work either. well, bless him, will take the speakership if give up the investigation of biden. if you give up the effor t up th to cut spending, if you give up the effort to stop regulations, if you give up the fight against woke policy. i mean, he's available pol and maybe these eight guys would be more comfortable being with hakeeeight gum jeffrn and that totally insane policy rather than pretending that. >> they're republicans. they better get this fixed fast. tter getthe patience of the american people will run, run out very quickly. speaker gingrich, thank you. all right. theaking right now, sourcespeakx news confirming the current majority leadeerr, steve scalis, is asking members of congress wh make hiscalise m the next sp. there was some question about whether or not that would happenhappen and because he hah dealing with some health issues. >> meanwhilee speaker mccarthyt is not the only person getting the boot tonight. pelosihe onight she was just eve from her special office in theci capitol building in what some believe was a parting gift joom former speaker mccarthy. joining us now is house judiciary committee chairman jim jordans chairm, sir, how ar? >> feinstein good to beth you with you. one question i've got to ask, an this obably have been thing has been pinging. what about jordan? what about jordan? , what awhat? >> jim jordan for speaker. would you consider ildt? ave sean, we've got we've got to come to a decision as a conference. we've got a week to do sodo it's important we do that and it's important we do that because of what you had in your monologumportantse of w >> any differences that exis ttr in the republican conference? pale, pale in comparison to theo radical left that now runscountr the other party and where they want to take the country. so we had better do exactly what you said come together, exactly what speaker gingrich said, come together and focus w on the things we told the american people we were going to do. and franklgo y i thought we werese doing that. we had passed the bills. we told them we were going t to pass. them w >> we were doing the oversight. we were we told them we were going to do and we stopping the crazy omnibus that inevitably gets sent to us theyy year right before christmas. we were focusing on the appropriation process like we'rewere focusg the likd to do. i thought that was happening. and frankly, i thought, what happened to speaker mccarthy was not fair. ve next question. would you have people been coming to asking you if you'd consider being speaker and would you consider iider bei >> look, i'm gonna leaveng that to the conference. of course, i've talked to colleagueo ourse s or colleagues that come to me and talk to me about that. but this is a decision for the conferenceis . >> and i don't think i don't think the way they're coming is a great guy. he's in on your behalf. and i'm like, i can't speak fo>s my friend jim jordan, so canyouo i take that as a you wouldul be open to it?nk i think it's a conference decision. i thins a confk steve would alsv great speaker. i think steve has given so much for our countreno muchy. ng job he's done an outstanding job as majority leader. but i do think the conferencrite to get together and really make we go from here and who's going i know i think this is this is a competitive situation we got rich comes to lower seat majoritean:y. if the conference closeness i'd like you to be the speaker when you do like you it. >> i'm going to talk to the conference over the next goi we. and i think that's the key. i don't i think this is a day where we say, look d heresay g wasoo notd. good. i think what happened to kevin mccarthy was not fair. let'in mcs out how we come togea as a conference and focus on our agenda. focus a confs on the three thinu is that this congress, i think is about and we passedt.we many of the bills we told the country we will do. we need to stay focused on that pressure the senate to actually bring them up for goodness sake, continue to do the oversight and then o obviously deal with this appropriation process and the spendingl with bill that has to behe done before the end of the year. i'll offer you some unsolicitere advice. if they do come to you and they do offer it to you and youco will consider it. this idea of one persoidn motion to vacate. ith i wouldn't take it with that provision. that has to go. i don't think that's good for anybody. my humble opinion. all right. let's move on to.. you know, how quickly can republicans, you know, fill this position and move forward with their agenda? we have four of the 12 appropriations bills done. we have a c.r. that we didn't want. i thought, again, chip roy, byron donalds, scott perry, freedom caucus guys put forwardl a plan that would have been a lot better, that would have put the pressure where it belongotpressures on, senate re, and they need to have the pressure put on themhave tvc and then resolved in conference. that would have been a much better way thatbetter to handle it and it would have bought time to get the appropriations bills finished with those appro appropriations bills finished. do you believeprls republicans n go back to regular order, get those billk tos done, cutsp spending, secure the border and take care of the top priority the er and t. >> that should be republican priority. i do. sean.enat we can pass all that. but if the senate doesn't do anything, you're you're inevitably going hing to be in thise this stalemate situation, this stare down situation where s at some point you got to pass something. >> and what i hope we would be willing to doomwhat i is focs on the issue that's front and center right now in the country. and center was in the bills that unfortunately we couldn't get the votes for last week. the issue that everyone know evest an front and center is the borderd republicans get it. >> independenters it more importantly, democrats get it. if we'd have put that on the stopga dep spending measure measu and stayed focused on that and talked about that for weeks leadinret leading up to the dea, i think we could have won, but we couldn't get the votes fo r that, which was what was so frustrating to me. i spoke time and time again and e. erenc >> let's vote. everybody knows. one really good issuowe beats 15 pretty good issues every time. >>issues every tim pick that one and here's why it's so important we come together, because the countriertant to toe out the crime problem, the border problem, democrats have figured i c problt out. so let's come together and focus on that agenda as republicans. that's that what i hope we do overk an the next week. and i hope the speaker is thi e one who can lead on those issues and the other things that we told the americae ot nwi people we were going to accomplish. >> if they focus on the two issues >> sea, one, we have 2 trillione more in debt this year because of biden's spendinbt thiause of that's got to be that's got to get under control. the border to t undes have got r under control. those are priorities that i believe you cae ties i n bring to the american people. and you do not need to compromis e. on last question. i've now heard fronom a number e of people i know for a factcted donald trump has been contactedg about possibly him being an interim speaker. is that a realit in intem y? i don't know. he actually i, but i want donald trump to be the next president united states if he wants to be speaker still. while i want everyone here,pres i want him to be president. he ran for president. he's stillrun he's still going to be running for president. that's where we need him. is at 1600 pennsylvania avenue. if he wants to be speaker, then that's fine, tooni. all right. i think you do want temporaril y same to get to at the same time, you to at the same time. >> i getti that. you probably could. all right. thank you, jim jordan, great to see you. coming up, biden's border crisis continues to devastate all across the country, especially new york. ci revealing illegalgrants immigrants are now overwhelming city hospitals. r tim texas senator ted cruz, he knows better than anybody. we'll his reaction to that. the vote in the house today as we continue continue, we find missing people who have slipped through the cracks and we bring them home. we need to talk about how you figured out this location. >> us cops. we all have our secrets. check your local listings and streaming on peacock with gold bond. >> you can age on your own terms. >> retinol overnight means of retinol are now for your whole body, plus fast working great corrector diminishes wrinkled skin in just two days go by champions your skin. >> i know you think we can't afford it, but we need life insurance. you're right. life can change quickly. that's why, quote, makes it easy to get the life insurance coverage you need to protect your family for less than a dollar a day. select find me a $500,000 term life policy for only $18 a month. >> we could help you save 50% or more on life insurance. you need insurance. you don't need to overpay for this. it's like qualcomm shop you save. >> i tried everything from my stubborn dandruff and then i found near-zero zero nicer. all works differently to get to the root cause of dandruff. in fact, it's active ingredient is ten times more effective at fighting fungus. the primary cause of dandruff. say goodbye to stubborn dandruff with neither role. >> it's umpire. today's half price sale, half prize on carpet, hardwood vinyl and laminate, plus half price on quality. >> professional installation schedule. >> now, behind me by day two, 300 and five today. oh, sustainably caught salmon in every bite. >> jinx is real dog food made by real dog people. >> this mango hint what it tastes just like mango. how can water taste just like fruit. >> for a limited time, new customers get over 45% off a drink income. >> that's 36 bottles for just 30 six bucks, only $1 per bottle. hint on to the musical's where dancers do things. you didn't think the human body was even capable of. just keep going. saturday strong. this big new saturday on fox marvin harrison to an undefeated ohio state face off against maryland in a big ten battle. it's big news saturday on fox tara reid on jesse watters to duckduckgo on all your devie duckduckgo comes with a built-n engine like google, but it's pi and doesn't spy on your searchs and duckduckgo lets you browse like chrome, but it blocks cooi and creepy ads that follow youa from google and other companie. and there's no catch. it's fre. we make money from ads, but they don't follow you aroud join the millions of people taking back their privacy by downloading duckduckgo on all your devices today. and wolfgang puck go to ship station .com slash try get two months free. tely all right so it's definitely time for republicans to putr pes aside their personal differences and come together. why?

>> john, great to be with you. thanks for having me. all right. before i get to the border, i want to ask you this. i want the pressure to move to your body and meaning the financial pressure. for example, your fellow texan,h chip roy, got together, other freedom caucus members, woul puterm caucus forward two . as one that would have cutrcentb spending by 8%, but still funded dhs veterans. and our department of defense.e the second one, what it wouldse have cutcond that by 30% and alo included h.r. two, that's the house border bill. then it would have to the senate where you are. and it's there that i people like you and senator mike lee and marco rubiyou ano and rand paul, you s would fight for fiscal responsibility in the senate. and finally, the pressure needs to be ther pree because that's where all these ominous omnibus bills usually end up comins g ot of anyway, don't they? >> yes. and i thin they tothat would have been a much better path for us to go down. listen g. , as you know, chip roy was my very first chief of staff when i was newly electes newld to the senate. i'm really proud of the job chip is doing, and i think he's shownp ink he s smart, coni leadership in the house. and i d pass the other c.r. that chip and other conservatives championed, it would be a muc vative ch bettery than where we are today. i got to admit, sean and i was i haadmit, sg listening to your monologue, the frustration you're expressing i understand. i think i'm feeling many of the sentiments that republican thi and conservatives across this country are feeling. on the one hand, the house'v of representatives is the one bright spot we've got. we've got a democratic left-wing administration that's doing enormous damage. we've got a democrat senate under chuck schumer that's doing enormous damage.one gl and the one glimmer of hope is a republican.i don' and so sitting here tonight, i don't like seeing chaos. osi don't like seeing a mess in the lone republican body at the federal level. i will say at the same timlevel listen, my hope is coming out of this. we unite. i'm going to stay out of leadership fights in the house. that's up for the for the house members to decide. but i do hope we come together and say these crazy marxist, radical leftist that arein destroyingg the country we are unified against i don't know who the next speaker of they house will be, but it hope they focus on something. i called forhoy focu a year agoy a year ago, which is we should impeaching alejandro mayorkas right now for absolutection dereliction on the southern border for creating the worstrs illegal immigration crisis in our nation's historlegal imys but -- but, senator, he tells us the border is closed and that it's secure. i mean, are you not believing te them, even though we'll have at the end of three years at least y 8 million illegalgali immigrants that they have allowed to walk in without background or health checksund that nowor c american city has to pay for every every person at a time. we can't afford it. >> you mean they're lying to us? i'm shocked. he is flat out lying. karine jean-pierre stands at the white house podium. she flat out lies every single day. and she doesn't just do so on her own. she does so on behalf of the behaident of the united states. joe biden is flat out lying. kamala harrif s is flathe t outr lying. and the important thing to understand what alejandro mayorkas is doing, it's not just that he's bad at his job. it's not that he's lousy.t. he doesn't know how to do it. he wants this crisis to happen. he looks at the 7.6 million people that have crossed under joe biden and his reaction is that is not enough. he's not trying to stop it. he's not tryin notg to secure the border. he's trying to accelerate it. he his job is he wants even more people to come, even faster illegally to this country. their objective is to turn 7.6 million into 10 million, intooot 12 million, a 15 million, because they look at every v one of them as future democrat voters and they do notot that give a damn about the dead bodies that are piling up in my home state pilin of texas.about they don't care about theth thousands of children being brutalizedou, but the womn being assaulted out of the about the over hundred thousand americans dying of drug overdoses. so americans my hope is the nexr of the house impeaches alejandro. mayorkas then turns around and impeaches merrick garland right aftek garlanr goes right r the politicization and weaponized version of the department of justice and the fbi indicting donald trump four times, using the fbi to target the administration's enemies. i think if we lead as conservatives nk i, that is a unifying and winning message going forwar messaged. . >> i think that's great advice for everybody. senator, i couldn't's goode t with you more. anyway, we appreciate you being with us. thank you, sir. and straight ahead tonight, republican infighting hit an all time high tonight. soh tonigh w what's next for the gop?

>> yes, john, great to be on aao goeam t to hear from my former boss and good friend from texas, ted cruz anodexas, ted l and to be here with jamie. and like the fact of the matter is theth democratic party has noof interest in working with us to solve any of the problems pre american people are facing. they don't want to solve the problem of crime in the nation's crime capital. that led to one of our colleagues, democrat, getting carjacke g cad a mere nine blocksthey d away from here. >> they don't want to deal with open borders. they don't want to dea do at rders orl to the fentanyl pouring into texas. they don't want to deal with, you know, pushing back oal with they don't want to deal with the woke agenda, killing our military. they don't want to deal with any of the pressing issuew of the day. so it is left to us to govern. it is leftis to the 221 of use to figure out how to get it done. and if we haveho some minor disagreements or even major disagreements in our party, then ur party some of that spil into the open. i wish we had pursued the path of the legislationpaislation the forward last week. we should have. i don't know who would i do wouldf you're a conservative cutting 30% from the federal bureaucracg froystg and border security with a strong bill, which we all work togetheruild pass. i wish we had done that.t no but right now i'm focused likew' a laser on moving forward. sean, we are going to unify. we're going to get throughd.nifr and come together because we've got to go stand up forcan the american people to maketate sure that we secure the border. the united states cut spending ,make sure we address the frankly, the ongoing proxy wars in ukraine and not go down that road very far. and we've got to make sure that we stan we stan d up for te who sent us here to push back on the democratic agenda. so i'm focused likmocratice a lr on that. i'm not leaving town right now. i'm here. i think eed to do our job.ul we shouldn't adjourn. we should stay here and do what the american people sen t us here to do. >> and we're not going to be distracted from that, in my opinion. t i, steve scalise, is making calls tonight. are there any names that comd sm to mind that you like for speaker?

well, i have a i have a tool that i can deal with that it's called jury notwithstanding the verdict, judgment notwithstanding the verdict. notwithsi can say there is no pb way that ale reasonable jury would have reached that conclusion. i'm following more. i'm an impartial referee, but it's hard to factor outmy o my own emotionwn s. all right. here with reaction. formerth react president former president trump's legal spokesperson, alina habba, is with us. all right, alina, first of all, the guy is dead wrong. and you brought it up in court today on the issue of valuation of mar a lago. och it's anywhere between a half a billion and $1,000,000,000. what part of this does he not understand? even though the assessor told him that he should not, you know, juxtapose the two or think they're similar? yeahhey are , you hit the naile on the head there, sean. the reality of the situation is that the appellate division got it right. we have a judg r ae that has mentioned in his order, frankly, not happy with himselfe at this point that the tax assessment of a give n property of $18 million is absolutely not correct, given that the fair market value of somebody, which woulsomebodyd pay for mar over a billion, 1.5 billion, shouact should be completely disregarded. so you go to a tax assessorld b and yoe co u say, my property is worth x, that's what i should pay tax on. t it's not going to be the fair market value. it never is the fair value it value. anybody that's gone to a tax assessor knows that in fac t, palm beach tax assessment department, the authorities ther e e put out a statement yesterday while we were in court saying what they're saying is right, this is thee ta tax assessed value. this is nox ast the fair market value. you're conflating the two you'ree our point let me all the time. >> let me ask you, i have a copy in my hands of the orgadisclaimers that the trump organization provided to banks. >> i'll read just a little of iton pro. >> considerable judgmentud is necessary to interpregment da and develop the related datas of current value accordingly. the estimates presented here in are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized. the disposition of the assets or payment of related. e us the use of different market d assumptions and orif estimate methodologies, estimation and methodologies may haveon a material effect on the estimated current value amounts because of the significance, etc. etc.. you are puttint ceteg the burdeg where it belongs. you're saying do not trust our valuationstrus. they can fluctuate and very dramatically itically.f. uciary there is a fiduciary responsibility of every lender. ty of evthey're not going to l to the person that wants to borrow the money and what they say their property is worth. if they're putting it up as collateral,p as ey hav they to do their own assessment. they have to get their own appraisalsey have. or otherwise they're not doing their job. that's not to it's ann irrelevant issue. whatever was put in these financial disclosurea vant iss a >> exactly, sean. and let me just be vercty clearm this this disclaimer is it president trump calls it a worthless clauseworthles, whih i love that saying because i think it says it all. this is a compilatiosays in. ia we never said it was an audited record. it is a compilatio record,n of s assessed values as a real estate act. he is real estate. he's trump, first of all. secondly, if you put your on trulia right now under new york state attorney general letitia james for a million and it sells for 800,000, you're in big trouble, folks, ts and they're going to come after you because that's not fair. and they'll disgorge profits. that's what this case is. and it's not right. it's notcase right. this judge is a nut. you know, i've been saying i don't think the president got fair trials in new york. i don't think can get a fair trial in d.c. i don't think he's getting a fair trial in fulton county, georgia. so trial, you know, and then so we'll have the trial and probably guilty verdict in an election year. and then meanwhile, wherr ane he a far better chance on appeal. that'll happen after the election . wow. yeah, that sounds like election interference th that's what that's what it sounds like to me. yeah. all right, elina, thank you. wh we , hunter biden pleaded not guilty to gun charges today. really?

well, that's been his job. i think they're protective d around. hunter biden is starting to break. we know from chairmaam nd hunten investigation, sean, that the big guy was very involved. his father was very involved in his business dealings despite joe biden's lie to thehi american people during the debate where he said i've never discussed business with ms y son we know that thats all life in the investigation. now, todayro , that's hunter biden on the screen. he's a criminal defendant. this is non t civil. didn' he wasn't held not he didn't claim i'm not liable. he claimedt able not guilty.oush these are serious charges. and pro-tiarp if you're goingth to sleep with the widow of your ficeased brotherf your, make sue can handle you and handle a firearm. because the other part of the storrehe y is that haley biden, was with whom he was having an affair after his brotherg died, god rest his soul, she threw the gun. sh se e threw one of the firears out in a trash can. and he is on tape screaming at i her about this. so i think if this actually goes to trial , to have all of w that out in the open. why does it matter?
