this is basically a warning and it's
time for us to go through through the

speaker of the house that will stand
with Republicans and our Republican
majority instead of standing with the
Democrats well all of this was going on
on Capital Hill Donald Trump said let me
make a video of myself and let me say
that the new hoax that they're going
after me for because all this guy does

election well that's the blood bath hoax
everybody here's Donald Trump making a
video play this clip campaign and the
fake news media have a new hoax it's
brand new it's called the bloodbath hoax
taking my words completely out of
context have you ever seen anybody whine
as much as that guy though like just the
constant whining the constant snowflake
behavior and just the weirdness like do
we all forget that a few weeks ago he
just posted a random photo of himself
with Elvis and claims that he looks like
Elvis and people thinking that he looks
like Elvis and confuses him I mean like
you've got President Biden right now
overseeing like record stock market
highs from the Dow the NASDAQ and the
S&P you've got President Biden investing
billions in infr structure projects and
bringing the semiconductor industry like
you've got real things happening and
this is what the Maga Republicans are
spending their time doing by the way
where they're in control of the House of
Representatives here's Trey gouty a
former Republican in the House of
Representatives though here he is
attacking his own political party play
this
clip what person that can pass a
competency test would want to be the
Speaker of the House what person who
would who could actually pass a
psychiatric competency test would want
to lead a group that includes Matt Gates
and Bob good and some of the other
people that you just showed I mean Mike
Johnson's as good as a gun you had a
speaker remember you had Kevin McCarthy
and you wanted to get rid of him and
Jimmy Jordan wasn't good enough and Tom
em wasn't good enough and Steve scal so
no you got Mike Johnson Trey I don't
think they're gonna and look I know we
know you know we talk about here the
margorie Taylor greens and the Lauren
bobberts and uh you know the James comr
piles and the Jim Jordans and the Matt
Gates this type of people who Trey gout
is talking about but like when you take
a look at some of these other like all
of the Republican party you got to be
like like who are these people like like
what like like uh anyway I I I'll save
what I really want to say here some
sometimes that's better off but I'll let
you say it for me in the comments this
is Republican Victoria spars from the
past week or so here was a hearing where
she basically says that January 6th was
a was a great day for her and that there
was not violent just listen to Victoria
spars here a magga republican play this
clip I know there was a lot of
discussions about you know January 6 and
I I've been in the chamber January 6 and
I'll tell you something you know we call
this Insurrection I'll have to tell you
if the people that show up there wanted
to do it they would have succeeded but
they didn't show up for that reason it
was people that were upset because the
quality of people came there they were
mad because because we are not governing
for the people and that's unfortunately
what was very strange to me that speaker
poosi didn't have a security speaker
pazi insisted for us to stay in the
chamber but I personally demanded
demanded to leave that chamber so a lot
of things you know the other side
dropped the ball and it was very
unfortunate for me to see that so I
think this is beyond the subject of this
matter but I need to we need to stop you
know accusing people that disagree with
the government that been very corrupt
and oppressive you know to actually come
here and you know Express peacefully
their dissatisfaction and there are
always some bad players and who knows
who they are but they don't call all
people insurrectionist this is just
unamerican to do it and I'm sick and
tired of the other side constantly doing
it because I knew a lot of people that
were there in the crowd and the good
Americans patriotic that love this
country and then you have like the few
remaining moderate Republicans people
like Mike Lawler um from New York York
Republican Mike Lawler here's what he
had to say on Fox about all of this
going on play this clip way to really
Advance the conservative movement is to
win elections and doing stunts like this
actually undermines our ability to win
elections no probably get her reelected
though sure in in an R plus 30 uh but
you know what the difference between
having a republican majority and not is
seats like mine Joe Biden won my
district by 10 points yeah while he's
saying that you've got margorie Taylor
green out there also saying how weak
Mike Johnson is here play this clip
because the current Speaker of the House
we have right now is getting rolled in
every single meeting um he is
negotiating from weakness and and we
have loss full confidence is there any
way that you would not move forward with
this uh at this time I don't see in any
way backing off of the motion to vacate
and she says that magam Mike Johnson is
doing the bidding of the Democrats that
magga Mike is working for the Democrat
she says here play this clip the
Republican majority I report US winning
the majority next year but we cannot
move forward having a republican speaker
of the house that is doing the bidding
of Democrats that is allowing Chuck
Schumer to drive our legislation uh
bringing bills to the floor that the
White House cannot wait to sign into law
and doesn't uh Kaylee mcanany who Donald
Trump calls milk toast she wanted a
weigh in on Fox here she is right here
at a minimum it's disappointing there's
a great irony here Carly as I'm
listening to Marjorie Taylor green I
hear her say there's a video that
everyone is focused on that video is of
illegal immigrants rushing our border it
is a video about 6 minutes ago we were
set to play it is a video that you're
not seeing right now because instead we
are talking about Marjorie Taylor green
it raises the question she didn't make
this live so nothing happens for two
weeks is this a fundraising exercise so
you can go back to your district for two
weeks and fundraise off of it what's the
motive here I get you're not in her head
but what's the motive here's another Fox
host by the way weighing in to play this
clip
I feel we are seeing yet another tantrum
by a tiny faction of that conference
that is disrupting the entire machine
that we just exhaustively waited for to
get back on track and here we are again
watching someone steal the time steal
the audio steal the Limelight steal the
attention she says we should have our
attention on the illegals streaming
across the border on a million other
things no our attention was on you while
you gave a pressor I'm sick and tired of
it as a republican as an American
citizen I want them to get to work I
love speaker Johnson who would be better
than him MTG what is your plan and I
don't want my legislature taking two
days up to vote for that to figure
everything out to look incompetent
during a presidential election year this
is the last thing I want to be subjected
with this is uh it's frankly at a
minimum it's disappointing there's a
great and finally can I just show you
like a Democrat like this is what this
is what Ted Lou had to say on the house
floor this past week play this clip the
gentleman is recognized for one minute
thank you Mr Mr Speaker I rise today to
discuss how house Democrats working with
the Senate and the White House are
delivering cost savings to American
families my constituents tell me how
high costs are affecting them and their
families and Democrats are listening
that's why we passed the American Rescue
plan which uh allowed Medicaid to limit
drug prices starting this year we also
passed another law the inflation
reduction act that cap insulin costs $35
a month and as a result of these laws
the three largest manufacturers of
insulin have announced that they would
slash the cost of insulin by
75% these are real cost savings for the
62,000 constituents in my district who
living with diabetes what are
Republicans focused on well the
Republican study committee just released
a budget about 70 some per of the
members are part of that committee that
wants to raise the retirement age for
Social Security and Medicare as we know
it ban IVF and R back the for bow Care
Act the two parties are not the same
anyway judge for yourself you got the
Republicans ripping themselves apart
from within it's just so freaking odd
