the political fight over the select committee. this is what they re trying to do to muller and do it again. in the two minutes we have left, maria-teresa and michael, i m only playing this sound bite from marsha blackburn because i m going to be talking about the subject of the sound bite in my bye line but have a listen. senator, is there anything you want to say about kamala harris? she was given the role of acting president when joe biden got his colonoscopy last week. yeah. and i think when you look at what she has done, she has failed at every task that she s been given. that s why there are many in the white house so frustrated with her. it s going to be interesting to see who they push forward to take her place. michael, this is lunacy and i hesitated to play it but like i said, i m only playing it because i m going to be talking
