>> Jesse: KEVIN McCARTHY
CAUGHT IN AN EPISODE OF THE
"TWILIGHT ZONE."
THE HOUSE WAITING FOR THE TENTH
TIME AND IT APPEARS HE LOST
AGAIN.
McCARTHY HOPING TO BREAK THE
THE CONSERVATIVES VOTING AGAINST
HIM, OFFERING LIKE A LOWER
THRESHOLD TO BOOT HIM FROM THE
CHAIR.
THE GUARANTEED VOTES ON BILLS,
CONSERVATIVES HAVE BEEN PUSHING
FAR BUT SO FAR NO DICE.
PRESSURE IS BUILDING ON THE
HOLDOUT.
>> SOME OF THE MEMBERS, NOT ALL
20, SOME HAVE PRINCIPLED
DISAGREEMENTS WHICH IS WHY THEY
ARE IN THE OFFICE RIGHT NOW
WORKING THEM OUT, BUT SOME OF
THEM ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN
NOTORIETY, FAME, ATTENTION.
THEY’LL NEVER HAVE A GAVEL LIKE
JIMMY JORDAN AND THEY DON’T HAVE
THIS TALENT, EXPERIENCE, THEY
DON’T WORK LIKE HE DOES, THIS IS
THERE ONLY MOMENT TO BE ON
NATIONAL TELEVISION OPPOSING
ANOTHER REPUBLICAN.
SO WHENEVER GREAT IDEAS THEY MAY
HAVE, NONE OF IT WILL BE DONE
UNLESS THERE IS A SPEAKER.
>> Jesse: IT MAY TAKE A WHILE
WITH KEVIN.
>> ISN’T IT TIME FOR YOU TO PACK
AND IN CONSIDERING HE HAS OVER
200 AND YOU’VE GOT 20?
>> I UNDERSTAND THE FRUSTRATION
AND I PROMISE YOU HE DOESN’T
HAVE THE VOTE AND WE ARE
HEARING --
>> I’M NOT FRUSTRATED.
>> VOTING WITH KEVIN
McCARTHY --
>> YOU’RE NOT ANSWERING MY
QUESTION.
>> THEY ARE CHEERING US ON,
THERE’S MORE FOR US THAN AGAINST
US AND THEY ARE WAITING FOR
KEVIN TO CAVE.
>> Jesse: JUDGE JEANINE, WE
ARE IN DAY THREE?
HOW DOES IT FEEL?
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS?
>> Judge Jeanine: I FEEL
ANGRY, THEY ARE MAKING THE
REPUBLICANS LOOK RIDICULOUS.
I LIKE KEVIN McCARTHY AND WHY
WAS THIS NOT DONE AHEAD OF TIME?
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS IN FRONT
OF THE PUBLIC?
WE LOOK LIKE A BUNCH OF FOOLS
AND LAUREN BOEBERT, ALL DUE
RESPECT, THE WOMEN BARELY WON
HER RACE AND HOLDING OUT UNTIL
KEVIN FALLS.
WHAT’S THE ALTERNATIVE?
WHAT DO YOU WANT AND WHAT’S THE
OPTION?
WHAT CAN PEOPLE AGREE ON?
YOU WANT THE REPUBLICANS TO GET
THE DEMOCRATS TO GET A SPEAKER
OF THE HOUSE AND IMAGINE
NANCY PELOSI SAYING LET ME GET
SOME REPUBLICANS SO WE CAN BE
THE SPEAKER.
I’LL PUT THEM ON COMMITTEES.
IT’S AN EMBARRASSMENT AND I’VE
GOT TO TELL YOU, IT’S GONE ON
LONG ENOUGH AND IT SHOULD NOT
HAVE HAPPENED THIS WAY.
HE’S DONE EVERYTHING.
YOU’RE LOWERING THE THRESHOLD TO
BOOT IT TO ONE PERSON TO GET A
VOTE TO BOOT THEM OUT OF
CONGRESS.
THIS I RAISED A QUARTER OF A
MILLION DOLLARS.
>> QUARTER OF A BILLION DOLLARS.
>> Judge Jeanine: FOR THE
HOUSE, OKAY?
THESE PEOPLE GAVE MONEY VOTING
AGAINST HIM AND WHAT DO THEY
WANT?
THEY HAVE NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE.
THEY ARE EGOMANIACS WHO’VE GOT
NO ANSWERS AND THEY OUGHT TO
JUST BE QUIET AND GO ALONG WITH
THE MAJORITY AT THIS POINT.
IF YOU DON’T WANT TO VOTE FOR A
BILL, DON’T VOTE FOR IT.
>> Jesse: HAROLD, I SHOULDN’T
EVEN GO TO YOU, I WOULD TO KEEP
THIS WITHIN OUR FAMILY.
I’M GOING TO GO TO DANA.
YOUR THOUGHTS?
>> Dana: IT’S THE LONGEST
STARING CONTEST IN HISTORY.
WE USED TO HAVE THESE IN THE
BACKSEAT OF THE CAR AND I WAS
PRETTY GOOD.
I WOULD NOT BLINK AND IT FEELS
LIKE IT.
EVERYBODY’S DIGGING IN AND I
JUST DON’T SEE HOW THIS ENDS FOR
A WHILE.
TO BENOBODY TOOK MY ADVICE AND A
BUDDY GOT A DRINK.
IT’S INTERESTING THAT KEVIN HAS
NOT LOST ANYMORE EITHER.
YOU KEEP GETTING THE SAME RESULT
OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
TO HOLD ARMS AREN’T GETTING WHAT
THEY WANT AND THE 200 OR SO THAT
HER WITH KEVIN McCARTHY RIGHT
NOW ARE STAYING AND IT COULD BE
THAT APPARENTLY THAT THERE IS
SOME PROGRESS PERHAPS WITH THE
ONES WHO ARE THE NEVER KEVIN’S
BUT THE ONES WHO WANT
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES INCLUDING
ONE OF THE THINGS ASKING HIM FOR
IS TO HAVE SOME PEOPLE JUMP THE
LINE OF SENIORITY IN ORDER TO
GET IT?
IS THAT FAIR?
I DON’T KNOW.
I’D IMAGINE IF IT HAPPENED AND
THEY GOT SKIPPED OVER THEY’D BE
FURIOUS AND THEY’D SAY IT’S THE
ESTABLISHMENT DOING IT TO US.
SO THE FEELINGS ARE GOING TO GET
EVEN MORE RAW I THINK AS IT
CONTINUES ON, HOWEVER IT FELT
LIKE THERE IS A LITTLE GLIMMER
OF HOPE THAT MAYBE THIS CAN BE
DONE BY NEXT WEEK I GUESS.
I’M NOT GOING TO SAY -- I DON’T
THINK IT’S GOING TO --
>> Jesse: YOU’RE PRETTY GOOD
WITH PREDICTIONS.
>> Dana: I’M 1 FOR 1 THIS YEAR
SO FAR.
GREG>> Jesse: GREG, I KNOW YOU
HAVE A LOT OF DOGS IN THIS
FIGHT.
I’M RUNNING OUT OF THINGS TO SAY
SAY.
>> Greg: WHAT HAVE I NOT SAID
AND I FOUND A FEW THINGS, SO
BEAR WITH ME.
I’M OFFICIALLY TIRED OF PEOPLE
SAYING THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN
100 YEARS, THIS IS THE FIRST
TIME IN THE CENTURY.
YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE HASN’T
HAPPENED IN 100 YEARS?
1923.
>> Jesse: ANYTHING ELSE IN
THOSE NOTES?
>> Greg: NO, THAT’S IT.
NO, NO, I KEEP LOOKING ON THE TV
LIKE IT’S THE OPPOSITE OF A
TELETHON.
THE SICK PATIENT GETS LESS HELP.
PEOPLE ARE CALLING AND SAYING WE
WANT OUR DONATION BACK!
I FEEL BAD FOR McCARTHY, THIS
CAN’T BE GOOD FOR YOUR EGO.
EVERY HOUR YOU LOSE BASICALLY
WHAT IS LITERALLY A POPULARITY
CONTEST.
JESSE, THIS WOULD DESTROY YOUR
EGO.
IF YOU COULD -- YOU’D BE OUT BY
THE THIRD VOTE!
HE’S ON TEN, HE’S A NATIONAL
HERO, WHO WOULD SHOW UP EVERY
DAY TO BE TOLD WE DON’T WANT
YOU?
THE POINT IS HE’S GOT 200 VOTES
AND THESE OTHER PEOPLE ALL THEY
GOT THIS 20 SO IT’S GETTING
TEDIOUS.
YOU MADE YOUR POINT, YOU’RE
BASICALLY PUTTING EVERYBODY ON
NOTICE EMMA THAT’S GOOD, HEALTHY
CORAL, WE LIKE THAT THAT’S
DEMOCRACY IN ACTION, IT’S
TRANSPARENT BUT AT THE SAME TIME
IT IS TEDIOUS AND WE ARE GETTING
BORED WITH IT.
HOWEVER I LIKE THAT IT TAKES
THEM ALL THE TIME OF
POLITICIANS.
MAYBE THIS IS ALL THE ONLY THING
POLITICIAN SHOULD BE DOING IS
VOTING ON WHETHER THEY ARE STILL
A POLITICIAN RIGHT?
THAT WAY THEY’D BE CHECKING THE
CONSTITUENTS THEN TWITTER.
DEMOCRATS MIGHT CARE ABOUT THE
BORDER AND CRIME IF THEY COULD
BE VOTED OUT EVERY SINGLE DAY.
MAY BE REPUBLICANS WOULD
SOMETHING ABOUT SENTINEL IF THEY COULD BE VOTED OUT
I’D SAY LET’S DO THIS FOREVER
AND EVER.
BECAUSE I DON’T WANT TO SEE
CAVUTO COVERING IT EVERY SINGLE
DAY.
>> Jesse: ALL RIGHT, HAROLD
HAROLD, JUST KEEP IT SHORT. >> Harold: INDEPENDENT VOTERS
>> Harold: INDEPENDENT VOTERS
WHO VOTED FOR CRIME AND BORDER
INFLATED GAS PRICES I’M NOT SURE
THEY IMAGINE THIS IS WHAT THEY
ARE VOTING FOR.
I AGREE WITH MOST IF NOT
EVERYTHING THAT’S BEEN SENT.
21 PEOPLE, 5% OF CONGRESS HAS
DECIDED THEY ARE NOT GOING TO
ALLOW HALF OF THE LEGISLATIVE
BRANCH TO BE SEATED AND GET TO
WORK ON THE THINGS THAT
INDEPENDENTS AND REPUBLICANS I’D
ARGUE SOME DEMOCRATS VOTED FOR
REPUBLICANS IN THE HOUSE TO DO,
THE BORDER.
CRIME, INFLATION, ENERGY, GIVING
US -- THERE’S MORE THINGS I
AGREE WITH THEM THAT WE CAN’T
GET TO.
IT SEEMS VERY PERSONAL WITH SOME
OF THE PEOPLE LIKE A FOOTBALL
TEAM AND THE WIDE RECEIVER LOOKS
AT YOUR GIRL IN THE WRONG WAY SO
YOU DON’T THROW HIM THE PAST.
HE’S YOUR BEST PLAYER.
I’M NOT GOING TO THROW HIM A
PASS.
THE TEAM COULD WIN AND IT SEEMS
LIKE THEY DIDN’T GET INVITED TO
THE PROM SO THEY’RE UPSET ABOUT
THOSE AND BLAMING KEVIN
McCARTHY.
WHAT I WOULD DO IF I’M KEVIN
McCARTHY AT THIS POINT, I
THINK YOU’VE GOT TO BE SERIOUS
ABOUT ALL THE REPUBLICANS AND
DEMOCRATS HAVE TO BE SERIOUS
ABOUT ISOLATING THE 21 PEOPLE
WHO DON’T WANT TO BE A PART.
THEY SHOULD ALL COME TOGETHER
AND FIGURE OUT WHO THEY WANT TO
ELECT AND WILL PROBABLY BE
KEVIN.
SCRAPPING THE DEALS WITH THOSE
AND GO WORK A DEAL WITH SOME
DEMOCRATS AND -- IF I’M A
DEMOCRAT, IF HE CAN’T WIN
WITHOUT THEM.
WHATEVER THE NUMBER IS, THEY ARE
THE ONES WHO SHOULD FEEL MOST
AFFRONTED BY WHAT HE’S DOING IN
TERMS OF CAVING INTO THE 21
REPUBLICANS BECAUSE THEY CUT
DEALS WITH HIM A LONG TIME AGO
SAYING WHY ARE YOU CUTTING A
DEAL WITH THESE GUYS?
YOU CAN’T EVEN COUNT ON THEIR
VOTE FOR YOU.
HE DID A DEAL AND NOT ONE OF
THEM, NOT ONE OF THEM VOTED FOR
HIM.
I FEEL BAD FOR HIM IN THIS
REGARD BUT THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN
DONE BEFORE ALL OF THIS.
>> Judge Jeanine: DOES HE HAVE
TO PUT THEM ON A COMMITTEE?
HOW BAD IS THE BACK-AND-FORTH?
>> Harold: IF YOU WERE TO DEAL
WITH THE DEMOCRATS AND THEY
DIDN’T OPPOSE THE DEAL, I
CRITICIZE THEY WENT TO THE
DEMOCRATS.
THE FACT THAT MORE PEOPLE ARE
NOT CRITICIZING THE REPUBLICANS
WHO SAID IF YOU DO THESE THINGS
WILL VOTE FOR YOU.
IF SOME PEOPLE ARE CELEBRATING
THEM AS HEROES AND THEY ARE NOT
HEROES.
THEY’RE THE MOST INCOMPETENT,
CRUELEST DEALMAKERS I’VE EVER
