I APPRECIATE YOU REACHING OUT TO
US.
>> HE IS COLLUDING TO GET
COMPROMISING MATERIALS.
NOW MACCARTHY McCARTHY HAS
THREATENED TO BAR ERIC SWALWELL
WHO SITS ON THE HOUSE INTEL
COMMITTEE DESPITE HAVING A PAST
RELATIONSHIP WITH A SUSPECTED
CHINESE SPY.
ALL THREE MEMBERS RESPONDED WITH
OUTRAGE TOWARD McCARTHY AND
REPUBLICANS, BUT AS NEWT
GINGRICH REMINDED EVERYONE IT
WAS NANCY PELOSI THAT SET THE
PRECEDENT AFTER MOVING PAUL GOES
HER AND MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE
FROM THEIR COMMITTEE
ASSIGNMENTS.
NEWT GINGRICH, FORMER SPEAKER OF
THE HOUSE JOINS US WITH MORE.
I THINK THAT’S THE FUNNY PART OF
IT.
THEY ARE ALL OUTRAGED ABOUT IT,
BUT THEY SET THE STANDARD.
NOW THE RULES APPLY TO THEM AND
THEY DON’T LIKE IT.
>> THAT IS TYPICAL OF THE
DEMOCRATS.
THEY THINK IF THEY CHEAT IT IS
OKAY.
IF YOU ARE HONEST, YOU MUST BE
CHEATING.
I THINK PELOSI AT THE TIME I
SAID THIS WAS A TERRIBLE
PRECEDENT.
THIS SETS THE STAGE FOR THE
MAJORITY PARTY TO DECIDE WHO
GETS TO SERVE ON EVERY COMMITTEE
AND SHE WENT AHEAD AND DID IT.
ALL OF THESE FOLKS SUPPORTED HER
IN DOING IT.
NOW IT HAS COME BACK AROUND TO
BITE THEM.
FRANKLY, THE THREE PEOPLE THAT
THE SPEAKER DESIGNATED
McCARTHY HAS PICKED ARE
PERFECT EXAMPLES.
OMAR IS AN OPENLY ANTI-
ANTI-SEMITIC, ANTI- ISRAELI
BIGOT.
SHE CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT BE IN
THE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE.
ERIC SWALWELL HAS VARIOUS
RELATIONS WITH CHINESE WHO ARE
SUPPOSED TO BE SPIES.
HE CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT BE ON
THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
AND FRANKLY, IF I COULD HAVE
DONE IT I WOULD HAVE HAD THEM ON
NO COMMITTEE AT ALL.
SCHIFF IS A LIAR.
HE WAS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE
INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
HE USED THAT POST WHICH
PRESUMABLY GAVE HIM UNIQUE
KNOWLEDGE AND HE JUST RETUNED
ONLY LIED.
EVERY LIE WAS A SMEAR OF THE
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
I HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR ANY OF
THE THREE OF THEM.
I AM VERY PROUD THAT SPEAKER
DESIGNATE McCARTHY HAS IN FACT
FOLLOWED THROUGH ON HIS
COMMITMENT AND IS GOING TO TAKE
THEM OFF THEIR COMMITTEES.
>> WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE NOW
THAT THE REPUBLICANS HAVE PRETTY
SIMILAR MAJORITY AS THE LAST
CONGRESS WHERE THE DEMOCRATS HAD
CONTROL?
OBVIOUSLY IN THE JUDICIARY JIM
JORDAN WILL INVESTIGATE WHETHER
THE FBI HAS BEEN POLITICIZED AND
THE DOJ WEAPONIZE.
THEN CONGRESSMAN COMER IS
LOOKING INTO HUNTER AND JOE
BIDEN.
THIS IS AN INVESTIGATION INTO
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES.
I HAVE OFTEN POINTED OUT THAT
MOST PEOPLE ARE MISSING THE
OBVIOUS AND THAT WAS THERE WAS A
REASON THAT JOE WITHHELD A
BILLION DOLLARS FROM UKRAINE.
THERE IS A REASON THAT HUNTER
COMPLAINS BITTERLY ABOUT ALL THE
MONEY HE HAS TO PAY HIS DAD.
APPARENTLY NOW ACCORDING TO
CONGRESSMAN COMER THEY ARE
BANKING RECORDS THAT WILL
CORROBORATE JOE BIDEN
FINANCIALLY BENEFITED FROM HIS
ZEROTH EXPERIENCED SON MAKING
ALL THESE DEALS WITH UP TO 50
COUNTRIES, MAKING MILLIONS WITH
NO EXPERIENCE WITH ANY OF THEM.
AND SOME OF OUR MOST HOSTILE
REGIMES OUT THERE, CHINA,
RUSSIA, ET CETERA.
>> FIRST OF ALL, I THINK THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT
TO KNOW ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS.
FRANKLY, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW
HOW MUCH MONEY THE UNIVERSITY OF
PENNSYLVANIA GOT FROM THE
CHINESE COMMUNISTS.
HOW MUCH OF THAT WENT TO JOE
BIDEN AND WHAT WAS IN EFFECT A
WHITE HOUSE STAFF WAITING IN THE
WINGS.
ALL OF THAT HAS BEEN KEPT
SECRET.
THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
WILL NOT ADMIT HOW MANY MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS IT TOOK.
THERE IS A LOT THAT OUGHT TO BE
LOOKED AT.
MY ADVICE WOULD BE THAT THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE WOULD LIKE THIS
CONGRESS TO BE 10%
INVESTIGATIONS AND 90%
SOLUTIONS.
WE HAVE A LOT OF REAL PROBLEMS
AND WE NEED REAL ACTION ON A
WIDE RANGE OF THINGS.
I LIKE THE FACT THAT SPEAKER
DESIGNATE McCARTHY SAID THE
VERY FIRST VOTE IS GOING TO PICK
OUT THE 87,000 INTERNAL REVENUE
SERVICE AGENTS.
THAT’S A POLICY DECISION, NOT
JUST AN INVESTIGATION.
MY ADVICE IS TWOFOLD.
ONE, TRY TO DISCIPLINE YOURSELF
SO IT’S 90% GOOD SOLUTIONS, 10%
INVESTIGATIONS.
THAT IS PLENTY OF TIME TO GET A
LOT DONE.
SECOND, HOUSE REPUBLICANS HAVE
TO LEARN TO BE A TEAM.
THEY CAN HAVE ALL THE FIGHTS IN
THE CONFERENCE THEY WANT.
THIS RECENT SUGGESTION THAT SOME
OF THEM MIGHT NOT VOTE FOR
McCARTHY ON JANUARY 3RD IS SO
SUICIDAL AND SO STUPID.
YOU REALLY HAVE TO WONDER WHERE
THEY ARE AT.
DO THEY WANT TO SEE THE MODERATE
REPUBLICANS JOIN THE DEMOCRATS
IN GETTING SOME KIND OF
COALITION SPEAKER?
WHAT IS THERE AND GAME OTHER
THAN THROWING A TEMPER TANTRUM?
THEY CAN HAVE ALL THE FIGHTS
THEY WANT INSIDE THE CONFERENCE.
THEY HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER WHEN
THEY ARE ON THE FLOOR.
>> YOU SAID ABOUT THIS ELECTION
HERE THAT FOR YOU TO FULLY
UNDERSTAND IT, YOU HAVE TO THROW
AWAY EVERY MODEL THAT YOU KNEW
IN PASSED ELECTIONS.
I HAVE BEEN THINKING A LOT ABOUT
WHAT YOU SAID AND I THINK VOTING
NOW IN THE LAST TWO ELECTIONS,
THE WAY WE VOTE WITH MAIL-IN
VOTING, ABSENTEE AND EARLY
VOTING, ALL THE STUFF, THAT HAS
CHANGED PRETTY DRASTICALLY IN
THE COUNTRY.
I’M NOT SURE IF REPUBLICANS HAVE
BOUGHT INTO IT.
I CAN’T RECONCILE THE
REPUBLICANS WINNING THE POPULAR
VOTE BY SUCH A LARGE MARGIN AND
NOT WINNING BY A BIGGER MARGIN.
THEN WE HAVE THIS THING THAT
I’VE BEEN TELLING YOU ABOUT,
ACCELERATED MIGRATION AND
LEAVING BLUE STATES TO AVOID
SHUTDOWNS, LOCKDOWNS.
THEY WANT THEIR KIDS TO HAVE
IN-PERSON LEARNING AND LOWER
TAXES SO THEY MOVED TO RED
STATES TO GET REDDER.
BUT SWING STATES LIKE MICHIGAN
AND WISCONSIN AND PENNSYLVANIA
WILL GET HIT HARDER.
ABORTION PLAYED A BIGGER PART IN
THE ELECTION THAN ANY OF US
THOUGHT IT WOULD.
AND YOUNG PEOPLE I THINK WANTED
THEIR STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS.
THEY SEEM TO SHOW UP IN BIG
NUMBERS.
WHAT HAVE YOU GLEANED FROM THE
INFORMATION SO FAR?
>> A COUPLE THINGS.
FIRST OF ALL, THE REPUBLICAN
MODEL FOR CAMPAIGNING, THE
REPUBLICAN CONSULTANTS ARE
WRONG.
THEY ARE OBSOLETE.
DEMOCRATS FOCUS ON ELECTIONS.
REPUBLICANS FOCUS ON CAMPAIGNS.
DEMOCRATS BEGAN GATHERING UP THE
VERY EARLY.
THEY WORK AT IT VERY
METHODICALLY.
SOME OF THE REPUBLICANS, FRANKLY
THE TRUTH IS THAT SENATOR
McCONNELL WAS A MAJOR PROBLEM
HERE BECAUSE HIS SUPER PACK
WHICH IS A HUGE SOURCE OF MONEY
REFUSED TO SPEND MONEY EARLY.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE EARLY
VOTING AND COME OUT OF A
PRIMARY, THE DEMOCRAT SPENDS TWO
OR THREE MONTHS DEFINING THE
REPUBLICAN AND THEN THE PEOPLE
START TO VOTE.
BY THE TIME McCONNELL STARTS
TO SPEND HIS MONEY, HALF THE
VOTES ARE ALREADY IN.
YOU JUST HAVE AN OBSOLETE MODEL.
REPUBLICANS HAVE TO LOOK AT
REALITY.
EARLY VOTING ISRAEL.
IN SOME STATES BALLOT BOXES
STUFFING IS REAL.
SOMEPLACE YOU HAVE TO FIGURE OUT
TO GET PEOPLE TO VOTE EARLY AND
STICK TO IT.
YOU ALSO HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WE
DON’T HAVE AN ELECTION DAY.
WE NOW HAVE AN ELECTION SIX
WEEKS.
REPUBLICANS ARE NOT READY FOR
THAT.
>> I TELL YOU THE LAST THING.
IT SAD THAT ANY VOTING TAKES
PLACE BEFORE DEBATES TAKE PLACE
AND DEMOCRATS HAVE LEARNED FROM
JOE BIDEN THAT HIDING IN YOUR BASEMENT BUNKER STRATEGY WITH A
