>> LAURA: I’M LAURA INGRAHAM AND
THIS IS THE INGRAHAM ANGLE FROM
WASHINGTON TONIGHT.
THANKS FOR WATCHING US.
NEWT GINGRICH ON THE LATEST
MADNESS ON CAPITOL HILL.
BUT, FIRST, THE FUTURE ISN’T
HERE.
THAT’S THE FOCUS OF TONIGHT’S
ANGLE.
ALL RIGHT, SIX VOTES LATER,
REPUBLICANS WHO ARE SUPPOSEDLY
THE MAJORITY PARTY IN THE HOUSE
STILL COULDN’T REACH THE
REQUISITE 218 VOTES NEEDED TO
ELECT A SPEAKER.
BUT, I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS
TODAY -- WHAT LOOKS CHAOTIC AND
KIND OF SEEMS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE
TO MANY IS ACTUALLY IN IT’S OWN
WAY REFRESHING.
BECAUSE IT’S DEMOCRACY IN
ACTION.
NOW, IT DOES REMIND US, THIS
ISN’T CHINA.
PARTY FALL IN LINE WITH WHATEVER
THE DEAR LEADER DECREES.
IN THE GOP UNLIKE IN PELOSI’S
PARTY, THERE IS A LIVELY DEBATE
ABOUT POLICY AND TACTICS.
SO, EVERYONE HAS A CHANCE.
IN THIS PROCESS, TO HAVE HIS OR
HER VOICE HEARD AND HAVE THEIR
VOTE COUNTED, ULTIMATELY.
AND, PLUS, WHAT’S CRAZIER?
WHAT WE WITNESSED IN THE PAST
TWO DAYS IN THE HOUSE, OR WHAT
WE WITNESSED RIGHT BEFORE
CHRISTMAS, WITH CONGRESS JAMMING
1. 7 TRILLION OF SPENDING IN A
GIANT OMNIBUS BILL THAT BY THE
WAY NO ONE READ.
MY MESSAGE IS SIMPLE.
DON’T GET DISTRACTED BY WHAT’S
HAPPENING IN D.C.
THINGS WILL SETTLE OUT.
LIFE WILL GO ON.
THE EXCITING STUFF BY THE WAY IS
NOT HAPPENING INSIDE THE BELTWAY
ANYWAY.
ICE NOT HAPPENING HERE WHEN WE
HAVE A FEDERAL GOVERNMENT RUN BY
OUT OF TOUCH OCTOGENARIANS LIKE
BIDEN AND McCONNELL AND THE
SEPTAGEN
SEPTAGENARIAN CHUCK SCHUMER.
THEY RAN THE NATION IN A DEBT
STRATOSPHERE, STOKING DAMAGING
INFLATION, EMPOWERING CHINA, TWO
WARS -- A PROXY WAR WITH RUSSIA?
THAT’S GREAT.
NO WONDER YOUNG PEOPLE ARE FED
ONE POLITICS.
NO WONDER THEY TUNE THEM OUT.
I DON’T BLAME THEM AT THIS
POINT.
THE GOOD NEWS -- THERE IS GOOD
NEWS COMING OUT, IT’S HAPPENING
FAR BEYOND THE BELTWAY.
IT’S HAPPENING IN STATES WHERE
GOVERNORS ARE RISING ABOVE THE
WOKE AND BROKE POLITICS OF THE
LEFT BECAUSE THEY’RE FOCUSED ON
PRAGMATIC POLICIES THAT ADDRESS
THE NEEDS AND CONCERNS OF
REGULAR PEOPLE, PEOPLE WHO ARE
RIGHT NOW, TONIGHT, WORRIED
ABOUT LOSING THEIR LIFE SAVINGS,
THEIR FREEDOM, AND THEIR ABILITY
TO RAISE THEIR FAMILIES IN
SAFETY.
AND THE RIGHT AND THE NEED TO GO
BACK TO WORK. >> FREEDOM LIVES HERE IN OUR
>> FREEDOM LIVES HERE IN OUR
GREAT SUNSHINE STATE OF FLORIDA.
IT LIVES IN THE COURAGE OF THOSE
WHO PATROL THE STREETS AND KEEPS
OUR COMMUNITIES SAFE.
IT LIVES IN THE DEDICATION OF
THOSE WHO TEACH OUR CHILDREN.
IT LIVES IN THE DREAMS OF THE
HISTORIC NUMBER OF FAMILIES WHO
HAVE MOVED FROM STATES ACROSS
THIS COUNTRY, BECAUSE THEY SAW
FLORIDA AS THE LAND OF LIBERTY
AND THE LAND OF SANITY.
>> RIGHT.
SO WE HAVE IN FLORIDA, IN TEXAS,
IN IOWA, VIRGINIA, WE’RE SEEING
REAL SUCCESS.
AND WHAT WE’RE GETTING IN
WASHINGTON IS JUST A LOT OF
DYSFUNCTION.
>> FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM IS NOT
ALWAYS EASY BECAUSE THE THREATS
TO FREEDOM ARE MORE COMPLEX, AND
MORE WIDE SPREAD THAN THEY HAVE
BEEN IN THE PAST.
THE THREATS CAN COME FROM
ENTRENCHED BUREAUCRATS IN D CS,
JET SETTERS IN DAVOS, AND
CORPORATIONS WIELDING PUBLIC
POWER. SOME EVEN SAY THAT FAILURE IS
SOME EVEN SAY THAT FAILURE IS
INEVITABLE.
FLORIDA IS PROOF POSITIVE THAT
WE THE PEOPLE ARE NOT DESTINED
FOR FAILURE.
>> FAILURE IS WHAT WOKE TEACHERS
UNIONS SPECIALIZE IN DELIVERING.
SUPPORTING LOCKDOWNS, ALL OF THE
RADICAL AND RACE THINGS ON OUR
KIDS.
RANDI WEINGARTEN AND THE GAME
HAVE HELD OUR KIDS IN A VICE
GRIP OF UNDERPERFORMANCE FOR
DECADES NOW.
KIM REYNOLDS IN IOWA, DOING MORE
THAN JUST COMPLAINING TEACHER’S
UNIONS, THEY’RE WORKING ON
CHOKING OFF THEIR FUNDS WITH
PORTABLE SCHOLARSHIPS THAT
PARENTS CAN USE TOWARD THE
SCHOOLS OF THEIR CHOICE.
AND IN TEXAS, GOVERNOR GREG
ABBOTT HAS DONE MORE FOR BORDER
SECURITY THAN BIDEN WILL EVER
HOPE TO DO.
NOT EVEN CLOSE.
>> A DRAMATIC SCENE ON TEXAS’
U.S.-MEXICO BORDER.
BEFORE SUNRISE, TEXAS NATIONAL
GUARD TROOPS ARRIVED TO PUT A
RAZOR WIRE FENCE ALONGSIDE THE
BANKS OF THE RIO GRANDE.
>> TEXAS GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT
SENDING 00 MORE NATIONAL GUARD
TROOPS TO THE EL PASO BORDER IN
AN ATTEMPT TO BLOCK THE FLOW OF
MIGRANTS TO THE U.S.
>> LAURA: UNLIKE BIDEN, ABBOTT
HAS DESIGNATED THE MEXICAN
CARTELS, THE ONES DRIVING THE
UNINFLUX, LABELED THEM DOMESTIC
TERRORISTS AND SHIPPED MORE THAN
16,500 MIGRANTS TO SOME OF THE
BIGGEST CITIES IN THE COUNTRY.
WHY SHOULD TEXAS BE STUCK WITH
THE BILL AND ALL OF THE PROBLEMS
THAT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION
CREATED WITH THIS ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION DISASTER?
SO, ABBOTT RIGHT NOW IS STANDING
UP FOR HIS PEOPLE.
AND THE RULE OF LAW.
NO WONDER HE BEAT OLD BETO BOY
BY 11 POINTS.
LET’S NOT FORGET WHAT’S
HAPPENING IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF
VIRGINIA.
THAT’S A STATE THAT POLITICAL
PUNDITS A FEW YEARS AGO THOUGHT
IT WAS IRRETRIEVABLY BLUE UP
UNTIL ’21 WHEN GLEN YOUNGKIN WON
THERE.
HE’S BROADENING THE REACH BY
TAKING ON THE LUNATICS ON THE
LEFT WHOSE GOAL IS TO SEPARATE
THE CHILDREN FROM THEIR PARENTS
AND HAVE THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
LAUNCH INVESTIGATIONS TO THE
SCHOOLS BEHIND IT ALL.
>> I’M NOT GOING AWAY.
I’M GOING TO MAKE SURE WE STAND
UP FOR PARENTS’ RIGHTS AND MAKE
SURE CHILDREN HAVE PARENTS
ENGAGED IN THEIR LIVES FULLY AND
WHEN WE SEE A PROBLEM, WE’RE
GOING TO GO TO WORK AND ROOT IT
OUT IMMEDIATELY.
>> THIS IS WHERE THE BATTLE FOR
THE FUTURE OF AMERICA IS BEING
FOUGHT, IN THE STATES, WHERE
AMERICANS ARE FLEEING TO, NOT
FLEEING FROM.
AND THE STATES LED BY MEN AND
WOMEN NOT AFRAID TO SPEAK BASIC
TRUTHS, WHO ARE NOT AFRAID TO
BEVILLIFIED BY THE PRESS, AND,
OH, ARE THEYVILLIFIED.
AND NOT AFRAID TO GO UP AGAINST
POWERFUL FORCES IN BIG PHARMA
AND CHALLENGE THE AUTHORITY OF
BIG GOVERNMENT WHEN BIG
GOVERNMENT TRAMPLES ON STATES’
RIGHTS.
I’M TELLING YOU, DO NOT FRET
ABOUT WASHINGTON.
WHEN THERE’S SO MUCH THAT’S
ACTUALLY WORKING OUT THERE.
I’D SAY ALMOST, WHAT, 20-POINT
VICTORY FOR DESANTIS IN FLORIDA?
THAT’S A CLEAR INDICATION OF HOW
MUCH MOMENTUM WE CAN HAVE IF WE
