HERNANDEZ
HERNANDEZ RESIGNS IF HE DOESN'T OR IF THE HOUSE VOTES TO EXPEL
HIM.
HIM.
HIM. ALL
HIM. ALL RIGHT .
LET'S TALK ABOUT CONGRESS FOR
JUST A MOMENT.
I'M SURE YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE, THE
CONGRESSWOMAN FROM GEORGIA WHO
WAS OR IS BIG INTO >> KUHNEN.
WELL, THIS WEEK THE HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES HAS VOTED TO
STRIP HER OF HER COMMITTEE
ASSIGNMENTS.
ASSIGNMENTS. ELEVEN REPUBLICANS VOTED YES ON
THAT SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON
REPUBLICAN JAIME HERRERA
BEUTLER WAS NOT ONE OF THEM ON
THE SAME DAY OF THE VOTE THOUGH
SHE ALSO RELEASED A STATEMENT
CALLING TAYLOR GREEN'S
CONSPIRACY BELIEVES QUOTE
INSANE AND STRONGLY DENOUNCED
HER.
HER.
HER. SO
HER. SO TODAY WE TALKED ABOUT WHY
SHE STILL VOTED NOT TO PULL HER
OFF THOSE COMMITTEES DESPITE
FEELING THE WAY SHE DOES >> SO
THERE WAS NO ACTUAL SO IN TERMS
OF LIKE LEGISLATIVE IMPACT, IT
DIDN'T CHANGE HER LEGISLATIVE
IMPACT.
IMPACT.
IMPACT. I
IMPACT. I ACTUALLY WOULD HAVE ARGUED
AGAIN NANCY PELOSI WAS TAKING
MY ADVICE.
MY ADVICE. I LEFT HER ON THE EDUCATION
COMMITTEE AND IF I WERE THEM I
WOULD HAVE PULLED TOGETHER SOME
HEARINGS ON SCHOOL SHOOTINGS
AND I HAVE HAD PEOPLE COME IN
AND TESTIFY AND I WOULD HAVE
HAD HER FACE >> THE TRUTH OF A
SITUATION AND I WOULD ALLOW HER
TO ASK QUESTIONS AND MAKE HER
POINTS TO THEM.
WHY ARE WE AFRAID TO DO THAT?
I THINK I THINK THEY DID GREAT
OR IF THEY'RE IF >> THE
DEMOCRATS GOAL WAS TO
DISEMPOWER >> HER WAS A MISTAKE
,I THINK IT WOULD HAVE >> BEEN
MORE EFFECTUAL IN >> BRINGING
CHANGE TO HOW SHE'S OPERATED TO
HAVE HER FACE TO FACE IN A
HEARING ON SCHOOL SHOOTINGS
AND DEFENDING HER IDEAS LIKE
I'M NOT SAYING SHE HAS TO JUST
TAKE IT >> ALL BUT THAT I THINK
WOULD BE RUN FROM TELLING THE
TRUTH.
TRUTH.
TRUTH. >>
TRUTH. >> AMY, SHE'S NOT SHE'S >>
STILL GOING TO HAVE JUST AS
MUCH ABILITY TO VOTE YES OR NO
ON THE SAME PIECES
OF LEGISLATION AS SHE WOULD
HAVE ON THE COMMITTEE >>.
SO INSTEAD OF SO INSTEAD
OF GETTING HER OFF THE
COMMITTEES, PULL BACK THE
CURTAIN AND MAKE HER KIND
OF FACE THE MUSIC ON HER OWN,
SEE IT, SEE WHAT SHE ACTUALLY
THINKS OF THESE TOPICS >>
AND LET HER SHARE WHAT SHE
THINKS AND LET PEOPLE I MEAN
THIS IS CONGRESS.
WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD WE HAVE
AN ACTUAL DEBATE ON AN ISSUE
LIKE RELEGATING IT TO SOCIAL
MEDIA, DUKING IT OUT >>?
I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT GETS US
ANY CLOSER TO DOING >> THE WORK
OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
NOW >> YOU MIGHT REMEMBER
HERRERA BUETLER ALSO VOTED TO
IMPEACH PRESIDENT TRUMP IN
JANUARY.
JANUARY.
JANUARY. SHE WAS ONE OF ONLY TEN
REPUBLICANS TO DO SO AND HER
SPEECH ON THE FLOOR GOT SOME
NATIONAL ATTENTION.
NATIONAL ATTENTION. SHE ALSO GOT SOME FLAK FROM
SUPPORTERS OF PRESIDENT TRUMP
AND SHE STANDS BY HER VOTE
STILL WE HAD A LONG
CONVERSATION TODAY ABOUT WHERE
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY GOES FROM
HERE.
HERE.
HERE. >>
HERE. >> I CAN TELL YOU I'M NOT GOING
ANYWHERE.
ANYWHERE.
ANYWHERE. YOU KNOW, MY GOAL IS TO
REESTABLISH WHO WE ARE BASED ON
THE PRINCIPLES WE'VE ALWAYS
ESPOUSED.
ESPOUSED.
ESPOUSED. I'M NOT GOING TO LET PEOPLE
PUSH ME OUT WHO SAY BECAUSE I
DIDN'T SWEAR FEALTY TO A
PERSONALITY THAT THAT MEANS I'M
NO LONGER A REPUBLICAN.
NO, I ACTUALLY THINK WE SHOULD
TURN THAT A BIT AND SAY PROVE
TO US YOU UNDERSTAND THE VALUES
OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND YOU
WANT TO FIGHT FOR THEM
DEFENDING THE CONSTITUTION >>
TENDS TO BE CHIEF OF CHIEF
CHIEF TOP OF THEIR >> BUT TIME
WILL TELL I CAN'T CONTROL WHAT
OTHER PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DO
AND I DO THINK WE'RE AT AN
INFLECTION POINT.
INFLECTION POINT. I DO THINK WE'RE IN A PLACE WE
HAVEN'T BEEN AT LEAST CERTAINLY
IN A GENERATION.
I JUST HAVE THIS I REALLY DO
HAVE IT'S ALMOST AN UNWAVERING
FAITH IN THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
THOUGH AND IN THE END IN A VAST
MAJORITY OF REPUBLICAN VOTERS
>> I BECAUSE IN THEIR WHETHER
OR NOT THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE
FRUSTRATED THEY'RE GOING TO DO
THE RIGHT THING FOR THE
RIGHT REASONS.
RIGHT REASONS. I WAS AT CHURCHVILLE OR IT'S
THE QUOTE HE GETS ATTRIBUTED TO
THAT AMERICANS WILL DO THAT
AFTER THEY'VE EXHAUSTED ALL
OTHER OPTIONS THAT COULD BE >>
TRUE.
TRUE.
TRUE. MY
TRUE. MY HOPE IS IT'S NOT >> NOW
WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING A LOT
MORE ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY, ESPECIALLY
HERE IN OUR REGION HERE ON THE
STORY NEXT MONDAY.
IN THE MEANTIME,
