Regret The Democrats playing games with january 6th . Yes. They played so many politics. What they did to this institution, what they did to this building was so wrong. The idea that they put magnetometers there, the idea that they would go to any republican member that they had been cosponsors of bills, and they no longer could be a cosponsor, that they would find members 5,000 if the magazine top of theers went on. But when nancy went around it or clyburn, it all got waived. The idea that bills didnt have to go through committee, the idea they created a select committee on january 6th and they wouldnt let the minority appoint who to do it . Im trying to change all that and bring the body back so they can work together. But i think they did a lot of damage to us. Yes, sir . The house is trying to pass the appropriations bill one by one.

Captions by vitac www. Vitac. Com and, good evening, im erin burnett along with wolf blitzer tonight. And welcome to a Special Edition of outfront because we are following the breaking news, and a Major Development at this hour because we are just learning that Kevin Mccarthy will not run for Speaker Of The House again will not run. A major decision coming after he made history. The first speaker in American History to lose his job. His firing has plunged the house into complete chaos, all work grinding to a halt. The party bewildered and uncertain what to do. No clear successor is in sight at this hour. But we do know that House Republicans, as wolf and i are sitting here, are Behind Closed Doors in a pivotal meeting, one that is sure to be heated, wolf, if what weve heard about recent meetings before all of this is any indication of where we are right now. We are standing by for details. Mccarthys removal puts an end to his term, which was just 269 days as Speaker Of The House. That
no, that was up to seven. i think that was seven. it might be my souvlaki talking, but yes. so it s a big debate with all of the parties who are fielding candidates in the election being represented. and as a result of that, what you have is of course, the sort of battle royale going on between labour and the tories, but you have an opportunity to hear from a much broader rainbow of political opinion. yeah, it means on the one hand it s less focused than when it was starmer versus sunak on tuesday, and it sjust two people going head to head on a range of issues. it becomes a bit more sprawling, but equally it feels more like britain because you re hearing about wales and hearing about scotland. sure. and it s a reflection also of the fact that there are lots of different kinds of political races in lots of different kinds of constituencies. there are races that are between the snp and the tories in some parts of more rural scotland they tend to be. there are of course that ar
good politicians do think about how they look and how they come across. and that might make it shallow. but you know. no, but not nigel farage, his version of a blow dry as a pint like. an optics matter in politics. so, you know, newscasters, i hope nobody s offended for us talking about people s looks. but it is of course, it s important, you know, and the. keir starmer i m going to take my jacket off and do this speech without a jacket and a tie or rishi sunak i m going to do this clip in my little cashmere woollen half zip number over a work shirt, which i have now. can you explain that to me? i don t go for that. look, there s quite a lot of, you know, blokes do go for that and i don t get it. but i, i had i digress. no, but i went into it. i was in the city of london for lunch the other day there. no, not with like a city type.
they also met. what s also interesting, kyra, rick perry met with three of donald trump s children. you know, i spoke to michael cohen who is trump s top political adviser. i just got off the phone with him and cohen said he spent some time with perry, as well. they talked about the economy and jobs and talked about family. all topics we would expect to come up during the conversation with donald trump. what is the take away from trump? cohen tells me that trump likes him as an individual and also likes what perry has done in texas, as far as creating jobs and also to make it a pro-business state. but donald trump is not ready to make any endorsements yet. as i said, mitt romney will be in new york in a couple weeks to meet with donald trump. kyra? he hasn t ruled out his own presidential bid, right? no, he is leaving that on the table. donald trump, if he endorses in this presidential election and that person gets the nomination and, of course, he says he won t run. but
