wolf bitter asked nancy pelosi around she slapped him down. if president trump or republican done that to a reporter we would have been viewed as attacking the press. interesting how nancy pelosi treats the press when they ask her probing questions which is their job. number one. nancy pelosi again was evading the underlying issue why she held up the relief that long. she never answered the question in that clip. nancy pelosi has used the american people as pawns in this political game. she has not answered to the press when they have asked legitimate questions. just shows you the arrogance of the democrat leadership. elizabeth: all right. congressman, good to see you. thanks for joining us. >> thanks, liz for having me on. elizabeth: federalist senior editor christopher bedford on georgia senate runoff which erps companies where the country goes the next four years. is the top democrat in georgia, one of the top democrats, is he in trouble dodging questions about a domestic dispute caught on camera. we'll show you what weren't down there. tha

here some say they will not back nancy pelosi. you have these three democrats representative conor lamb, jared golden and elissa slotkin who have said they will not back nancy pelosi. i have talked about the reshuffling of our political allanement. i have talked about the republican party going through a reshuffling of positions. i liken that to dominoes. you will be shifting them every which way. what's happening on the democratic side though is a pull. it's not so much a reshuffling but a hard pull in one direction. we're watching our political parties change as we speak, lawrence. will. >> lawrence: yeah. people wonder why nancy pelosi gave these powerful 'seats to these freshmen on the judiciary committee. remember, these are democrats that primaried other democrats and whop their seats after 20-must years. have you cori bush that unseated lacy clay in missouri after he and his father it had the seat. and you got the other member bowman that unseated engel in new york city after 20-plus years and his seat. these people came wi

nancy pelosi. all of these people. when that happens doesn't it undermine their citizens' faith in the policies and regulations they shall rolling out? >> yes. understand sniewtions america are already under attack. people question whether it's the election institutions, public health policy institutions. but when you have your leaders as well. i'm in the congress. we are held with a disregard by most americans today. and that partly is because we have not lived by the laws we placed on people. i single out speaker pelosi on that. but also in the states as well. the american people, they know intuitively that lawmakers have authority only because the people give them that power by voting for them, and in our constitution and the state constitutions. we are seeing that being abused. that's why people don't trust us anymore. lisa: we are seeing negotiations on an omnibus spending bill and covid relief package. where do you stand on those two items? >> we have $500 billion that you can put for ppp, small businesses, witho

who knows, did someone try to influence nancy pelosi to put them on the committee? and he's running for president. what is worse, the chair of the intel, adam schiff do this. he knew this. the whole time they are trying to impeach the president. everything eric swalwell accused the president of, he did. nancy pelosi, the speaker of the house, third in line to the presidency, knew about this and kept him on the committee. the real question will come january 3. now that members of congress know this and only the leader can put them on the committee, if you vote from nancy pelosi as speaker, your voting to put eric swalwell back on the intel committee and adam schiff as chair while knowing this information. judge jeanine: this is all up to nancy pelosi, if she is reelected as speaker. >> she puts on the democrat, she named the democrats, intel mitty and i name the republican intel committee. judge jeanine: and he gets on it, the fact that he and adam schiff, both on the intel committee did nothing but trash president trump on a russian collusion, even mueller couldn't

nancy pelosi said that he keeps saying on television on this network when did nancy pelosi learn about this and what did she learn? well, she says they learned at the same time. they were all brought together by federal agents and briefed about congressman swalwell potentially being breached by an alleged chinese spy. they all learned at the same time. so it would be fascinating to get the house minority leader's impression of when they learned and then what the next steps were taken. that's a key part of all this that nobody has addressed. if they all learned at the same time in 2015, what were the next steps? what happened to eric swalwell? was he briefed again by federal agent? was he investigated what kind of contacts he had with this person? this christina fang, fang fang as she was known, went back to china. nobody knows why she went back to china. was she dismissed, sent back to china, informed that she had been uncovered? that's the question that everybody wants to know now is what happened going forward. probably a good time to bring in chad pergram the capitol hill correspond

nancy pelosi, all of these people. so when that happens, doesn't it undermine their citizens' faith in the policies and regulations that they're rolling out and implementing? >> yeah. i mean, think about this. the institutions in america are already under attack and people question them whether it's the election institutions, public health policy institutions. when you have your leaders as well, that brings -- for instance, nim the congress. we are really held with a disregard by most americans today and that part of it is because we have not lived by the laws that we placed on people and i single out of speaker pelosi in that.pe but also in the states as well. the americanel people, they know intuitively that lawmakers havea authority only because the people give them that power by voting for them and in our constitution and in the state constitutions. we are seeing that being you abused and that's why people don't trust us anymore. they simply don't trust us. >> and congressman, this weekend we're seeing negotiations

really nancy pelosi deserves the blame here. the bigger story seems to me, this was going to happen, the money would get out the door, this process is a disaster. it's so broken. the idea that you would -- that a bill would be 5,000 pages, that you give people less than 24 hours to read it that you're talking about 2.3 trillion. nobody has the foggiest idea what is in this. it's exactly this kind of thing that makes people so frustrated with what the happens in washington. they should be frustrated about it. >> bret: speaking of frustrated, ilhan omar tweeting out that it would make sense if it was age, but unfortunately it's of importance and it's shameful. we're not more important than front line workers, teachers and those making sacrifices which is why i won't take it. people that need it should get it. talking about vaccinations for lawmakers. criticizing her own squad member, aoc. >> yeah, the whole question about whether members of congress should get this vaccine now is a really important one. there's a certain public he

before nancy pelosi and the democrats will act, i promise you this. republicans will continue to work in good faith just as we put forth bills again and again that the democrats have voted no just as we worked with the senate and the white house, just as we know there is an opportunity to stop playing politics. with that, i introduce our whip, steve scalise. [applause] mr. scalise: thank you, kevin. i strongly agree with the comments that our leader just made. when you look at where we are right now as a country, there are thousands of small businesses that will spend this weekend to figure out whether or not they will be able to remain open, whether dreams will be crushed and millions of families who rely on those jobs will sustain themselves through christmas. and during that period, for months now, we have been trying to get a vote on a bill that everybody agrees on, the chabot bill that jamie herrera beutler is straightforward. there are a lot of areas that we are or disagreement on. we need to help small businesses that are struggling and familie

the status quo politicians even if you look at the squad they're not really challenging nancy pelosi when it comes to that is more stimulus package she just pushed out which basically cut the money and have from what was initially going to happen so there is a huge fracturing in the progressive movement it is a lot of people voted for joe biden thinking that they were making damage and in my personal opinion i don't see it was worth it i don't we are seeing joe biden fill his cabinet with people that are diametrically opposed to everything for growth of their sense of value whether that's medicare for all whether that is you know cutting the pentagon and cutting our military budget whether it's something as simple as getting a green you deal or any sort of cuts to the environment to the emissions and any sort of progress for the environment they're going to review i mean can i ask you know can i ask you personally do you have any buyer's remorse because i'm sorry and i'm very sympathetic conservative but i'm very sympathetic to a lot of the rest of ideas here but i could've told you

it's nancy pelosi alone that controls the gavel that makes that decision. i recall that nancy pelosi has not met with president trump in more than a year but what was the seminal event that pushed her to do that to? it was the fact that she decided she no longer wanted to meet with the president because the president was going to put that out on television and that she didn't want the american people to see how those negotiations were going. this is how disaster liberalism works, they take a crisis, they appoint all this other stuff with it and you get this where we are today. i've got to tell you back in 2018, donald trump said he wasn't going to do this again. >> it's also important to remember that nancy pelosi and a lot of these people have been doing this for years. joe biden has been at this for nearly 50 years, they've been at this game forever. donald trump is new to this. he comes on the private sector, from the free market and he's trying to do things differently. donald trump is at his finest when he's listening to his own instincts, making these

it was just the speaker nancy pelosi and my c it was a very thorough briefing. no one that was in that room could walk out and say eric swalwell should be on the intel committee. i don't know they had a briefing before in 2015, and i don't know what that briefing was like compared to this one but it could not have been the same. the one answer that i got out of that briefing was there is no way eric swalwell should continue to serve on the intel committee and the challenge here is the leaders of both parties are the only of people who select to go on the intel committee. that is why today, what i'm going to request that every single member on the house intelligence committee gets the exact same briefing from the fbi that i do because if this individual is sitting on this committee, eric swalwell, they've got to know the background of what has gone on. i can't talk about the classified part but you know what's out there in the press. this is an individual, and maria, you've done this more than probably any other show, the in depthness of what china has done, the

republicans believe nancy pelosi could have taken a deal months ago. >> she did not want to give president trump a win and meanwhile the american people were losing. the main thing we rejected was a bailout to a lot of blue states who have mismanage their funds, but meanwhile we were asking her to at least let businesses have another bite of the apple and money that was already appropriated. >> the bill provide $600 stimulus checks for many americans, a sizable chunk of the legislation goes towards the paycheck protection program designed to keep businesses afloat. it also extends an eviction moratorium and money to distribute the vaccine. >> who do you think as the vaccine goes to the state. it's to the land, to your arm magically? no, it has to be received, distributed, administered. >> the white house indicates president trump supports the bill. we are still expecting a vote, they just posted with the hold up a computer glitch. dana. >> dana: chad, thank you so much. let's bring in senate majority leader mitch mcconnell who of course was part of these negotiations, and senator, i want y

jillian: this as they ask nancy pelosi to pull him from the intel committee. joining us now is weekend co-host pete hegseth. pete: good morning. great to be here. jillian: todd and i were talking about this in the commercial break. what message does it send and what good does it do at this point in time to remove him from his post on the intel committee when this allegedly happened years ago. what does it say about that? >> take threats seriously. it doesn't mean the threat is over. doesn't mean if there was compromise there isn't. junior member no experience put on the intel committee by neps even though she presumably known he had already been compromised at that point. he is quite empathetic to the communist chinese. also the political and partisan hatchet man. leaking information all over the place. this is a move they should have made. they like him as their partisan hatchet man there. and the press, of course, we know whose team they are on. they are not going to report on this. they will easily dismiss it. believe the story will go away. go into the nex

. >> kennedy: for months, speaker nancy pelosi, house speaker nancy pelosi, insisted on the $1.5 trillion bill democrats had introduced before the election, but when asked earlier this month why she is not okay with a very slimmed down version, is what she said. >> this has simplicity. it's what we had in our bills, it is for a surety period of time, but that's okay now, because we have a new president. >> kennedy: hmm. so, is she proving mitch mcconnell right there? he says democrats are the ones stalling and playing politics with people's livelihoods, and a rescue package. so what really went on? >> buck: i think there's no question. this is unacceptable on a number of levels. first, dealing with the democrat delay, what exactly was the great end result of nancy pelosi's delay tactic here? a bill that could have been put forward that would help people who need help, because of the government causing, with policy, with mandates, layoffs that have occurred in numerous industries. it was obviously to increase suffering, anxiety, and despair going into the election, which i think tells peop

he was going through this list over and over again, nancy pelosi's horrible, terrible year. one, the impeachment debacle, and no one ever talked about it again during the entire campaign, we have that disastrous chinatown coronavirus messaging, remember, she had the green new covert relief debacle, let's do covid relief but let's make sure airlines have to do a missions or climate change, the ice cream interviews, hair salon hijinks, losing in november. all those house seats and admitting that blocking relief was all about president trump, there's only i think 14 days left in december, i don't know how many more things we can add to this list. >> dagen: jesse, you are clapping, go. >> jesse: i'm just so proud of dana, she made a list and delivered it flawlessly, i have a list here that i have kept every day. i am ready to drop that but aoc reminds me of the millennial who gets a job and six months later goes to hr and asks for a raise and a promotion, if you work in hr you know these people, nancy is not going to give this to you, you have to earn it. if you want to short-ci

nancy pelosi agreed tweeting that democrats are ready to bring it to a vote this week. will my next guest support it? texas congressman and ways and means committee member, kevin brady. always a pleasure. your thoughts on president trump's pronouncement last night? it's interesting. i was shocked and just checking social media how conservatives and republicans were appalled at the $600 number. a lot of folks thought it should be higher. >> yeah, charles, merry christmas and happy holidays to you. first, i wouldn't recommend to the president to veto this. he was right to be upset about this process. democrats in the house didn't bother to do a budget this year. speaker pelosi delayed this. everybody knew a mess would be coming. here's the key thing. president trump won in these negotiations. first, the covid relief bill that speaker pelosi insisted on $3.4 trillion turned out to be about 1/10 of that spending. all on the area president trump insisted on. more help for small businesses, getting airline workers back to work. on the overall spending bill, these are several

why is nancy pelosi letting him still sit there? >> well,. >> she may need the donations that she brings from silicon valley. he was targeted not because he was some great guy, he was targeted because of where he is and the district he represents which is silicon valley. it is where the two national labs are. he was targeted from the beginning. but, liz, let's just think about this for a minute. it's eric swalwell, right? so he's targeted by financial donations to husband campaign, you have hunter biden who's got a business relationship with the chinese. where are the -- the chinese are all over this stuff. they have penetrated our elites the same way the russians have penetrated the government e-mail systems. again, we need to stop being so naive and figure this out and really come to -- you know, face it. face it and get rid of it. elizabeth: right. and, you know, russia and china play the long game. you've talked about that. they don't just play 3-d chess, they play 5-d chess. so swalwell, i mean, he -- how experienced is he in t

way to replace nancy pelosi is give us a majority in 2022 and we will replace nancy pelosi. right now you don't feel like inside the democrat calculation there is enough votes to overturn establishment traditional campaign money washington and go in another direction? >> well, i haven't been spending all my time in washington, d.c. except for orientation. pete: that's true. >> but i think, you know, nancy pelosi is a very savvy politician. she has been at this for a very long time. and they have to look at their leadership. but, as i said, we tried to replace nancy pelosi by getting the majority. we came very close this election cycle. and we can replace nancy pelosi in 2022 by electing a majority of republicans to take back the house. pete: now, as you said the balance in the house is close. it's still controlled by democrats. but much thinner than people anticipated. your election, which was won by six votes, was certified in iowa. do you have a concern that once it goes to the house floor in washington in january, is there a chance they could try to see the your opponent

flip over to the house of representatives, nancy pelosi. her husband, paul pelosi, has done a series of deals in mainland china, that are directly-related to the chinese government and are part of the fact that the chinese are trying to curry favor with high- ranking politicians in the united states. you can add dianne feinstein. her husband richard blum has been doing deals for 25 years on mainland china and has benefited from private meetings that senator feinstein and her husband had with the highest levels. look, the bottom line is the chinese government has had a strategy, they've used it in australia, new zealand, in singapore and they are going to try to use it in the united states as well where they effectively decapitate our political leadership by giving sweetheart deals to the family members of our political class, thereby neutering them making them less critical of the chinese government and the question is, are we going to do something about it or are we going to just let it pass? maria: this is all very disturb ing, peter. it'

it'sgh nancy pelosi alone that controls the gavel that makes that decision. i recall that nancy pelosi has not met with t president trump n but what wasear the seminal event that pushed her to do that to? it was the fact that she decided she no longer wanted to meet with the president because the president was going to put that out on television and that she didn't want the american people to see how those negotiations twere going. this is how disaster liberalism works, they take a crisis, they appoint all this other stuff with it and you get this wherehe we are today. i've got to tell you back in 2018, donald trumps said he wasn't going to do this again. >> it's also important to remember that nancy pelosi and a lot of these people have been doing this for years. joe biden has been at this for nearly 50 years, they've beenort this game forever. donald trump is new to this. he comes on the private sector, from the free market and he's trying to do things differently. donald trump is at his finest when he's listening to his own instincts, making these threats

nancy pelosi says she held up coronavirus aid simply because trump's president and she doesn't regret it. >> that's okay now, because we have a new president. that was not a mistake, it was a decision and it's taken us to a place where we can do the right thing without other, shall we say, considerations in the legislation that we don't want. >> jesse: now bernie sanders is calling out democratic leaders for stalling entire process. >> the democrats walked away from that bill because they wanted 2.2 trillion and they walked away from 1.8 trillion. >> that's what i'm saying. that's exactly what i'm saying. here was the proposal much, much larger, democrats said no, that's not good enough. >> jesse: greg, the democrats have always fought for the little guy, the mom-and-pop shops over the big industry, they've always fought for waitresses and dishwashers, to hear them talk about the minimum wage and health insurance and now when they really need it they are m.i.a. >> greg: especially when going to restaurants, jesse. it's the most american thing you can do. here's what you need. i think

of desperation waiting for nancy pelosi to do the right thing? numbers being very close now between the majority and minority is going to be something special for us because nancy pelosi has a choice to make. is she going to kowtow to the socialist squad, those five votes will be the difference or is she going to work with us, the republicans, kevin mccarthy to get some common ground that real bipartisan work done for the american people. that is what we are waiting to see. hopefully she will side with us and not go so far to the left. that is what the american people have shown they once considered they lost every tossup seat in the past cycle. >> i'm still hearing from people say they don't understand how the republican party did so well with latino voters and people like you flipped season the president grew his percentage with latino voters. how do you answer those as you head to capitol hill? >> we share the values of latino voters in south florida. what democrats, especially the extreme left of the democratic party, what they are selling do

did he tell nancy pelosi? it got so bad the fbi had to warn about his contacts with this alleged spy about five years ago. he goes full speed ahead on trump-russia collusion. he refuses to the discuss the details of his relationship with this spy. she reportedly had sexual affairs with two unidentified midwestern mayors, one from ohio. "axios," fox news, having a problem getting information out of eric wall well. his office is not answering questions. what do you think? >> i think he need full disclosure on everything that happened. his relationship, the scope of his relationship. you know, whether he shared information that was of a sensitive nature. as many pointed out he serves on a very sensitive house intelligence committee and, you know, sort of who else is around him? if you're warned by the fbi that someone that is in relationship to you is a agent of a foreign power, that means that you're awfully close to this person. this is not someone you shook hands with at a photo-op. this is someone you have so

we tonight need any more delay from nancy pelosi and the house democrats. ainsley: what are the democrats' response when you say things like that on the floor and do you ever say this person owns a restaurant? they can't pay their employees? brian interviewed a lady who said i have an employee who is pregnant and she came into my office and i didn't have the heart to let her go. it's christmas time i can't really afford to i pa my element employee cans. she is pregnant and a single mom. and it's christmas. telling them to shut down the restaurants but then the ppp money ran out in august. it's been five month. they are telling them to shut down their restaurant but yet they are not giving them any compensation. >>s i know, ainsley, it's totally unjustifiable. but the democrat have a key constituency which is democratic governors and mayors who have mismanaged their own states decades bailout at the very same time they are preventing people from making a living and putting food on the table for their kid lake eric garcetti in los angeles letting movie studio

nancy pelosi controls the purse strings, the large donors. she has a huge amount of power within the party still. while they may be progressive challenges, they haven't got the numbers right now to take on nancy pelosi. they may want to. they may talk about it. they could certainly organize. in the end, as she's done before, there have been other challenges. the numbers may be a little less, but she will still win the speakership. >> julie: yeah. i mean, nomiki, a democrat from missouri and representative elect from new york, another democrat, they both, as you just heard, deflected under questioning saying they're going to make sure the voices of the people of st. louis are heard and that we need more. bowman was no more forthcoming, saying "you will find out when my vote is tallied." it makes you wonder if they believe -- because i think what they are trying to say is that the current democrats perhaps are not necessarily fighting for american people, for the working class. in progresses are somehow going to do a better job of doing that. w

it wouldn't have been possible wiout speaker nancy pelosi. she's been an outspoken ally who stood in the fight with us, raised her voice, long beforeo many others. she's been with us on the beginning. you know what else would raise their voice abo the destinion of our community from the hiv/aids epidemic, she was on the house floor fighting r needed funding. she fought for the repeal of "don't ask, don't tell", for the passage of the federal hate crimes ls, and she embrace marriage equality early on, en voting against doma in the 1990s. today she continues to fight for us, and for the passage of the equality act. she's a true trailblazerhose one of her most important allie in the fight for co-equality. spear pelosi, inc. is a much for helping create a more just world, and congratulations on such a well deserved award. >> madam speaker, congratulations. >> when history looks back at this moment, we will see that you not only with the way ofhe democratic party which was a conscious of her country, fighting for ideals that making them realersona

to block nancy pelosi's bill boosting relief checks to $2000. that is according to sources that participated in a call with house minority leaders. adam cole of rbc capital markets is still with us. another rights that the market is now underpricing the gambit of this virus relief bill dying out. is that something you agree with? way thertainly the markets have traded in the last , still posited by the that anerally, does show solution will be found, one way or another, either through the andident stepping back letting congress have its will ,ith the package, or vetoing you know, overruling the stimulus package, or some compromise being reached on the contents of the package itself. one way or another, the markets sanguinee quite sayin on the stimulus being delivered one way or another. i don't think that is unreasonable. there is some risk that does not happen, but as a base case, i do not think it is believable that market surprised for a solution of one kind or another that does eventually see the household checks delivered in the stimulus pa

nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. when chuck schumer says first we take georgia and then we change america. he is not saying change it from the better for center to right georgia. americans like divided government. that's one thing the democrats will face in this election. people want to tap the brake. they don't want somebody to have it all free and clear under their control. that's an advantage for the republicans as we get closer to january 5th. >> john: we were told that the president indicated that last night at a christmas party last night that he will run again in 2024. he said i will either see you for another 4 years or see you in 4 years. would he declare on inauguration day and what effect would that have on the republican party if he did that? >> i fully expect him to make lots of noise about running in 2024. i don't know if he announces on january 20th. he has a sense of timing that is built in. i expect him to indicate an interest in 2024. he set up a committee save america with 125-million dollars. mayb
