washington has become a clamshell. a place where lawmakers act like they are in elementary school. calling each other nasty names. it is a travesty. i am not exaggerating. it is been a pressure cooker as they tried to avoid a government shutdown, which they did, by the way. that is no excuse. oklahoma senator who had been trading jabs with sean o'brien and the labor leader showed up to testify. >> a time and a place, we can be to consenting adults. we can finish it here. want to do it right now? >> i would love to do it right now. >> then stand your butt up. >> you stand your butt up. >> you are a united states senator, acted. sit down, please. >> is this incumbent to a senate and senator?

that is not how we behave in oklahoma and ironman oklahoman first. >> bernie sanders seems to be the voice of reason here. everything you just saw was a complete and utter embarrassment >> i am with laura on this one. republican tim burchett who helped oust kevin mccarthy accusing the speaker of a painful jab. >> why did you elbowed me in the back? hey, kevin, you got any guts? >> why did you elbowed me in the back? >> did you elbowed him? >> i would did not elbowed him. i would not hit him in the kidney. >> this is ridiculous. kevin is acting 12 years old. >> another reason why much of the country cannot stand washington. i am howard kurtz and this is "media buzz." ♪

>> did you think i was done? i am not done. taking a whack at democratic congressman jared moscowitz. >> you look like a smurf. >> a smurf? you cannot make this stuff up and nobody is defending it. >> it was a chaotic and oddly violent day on capitol hill where republicans dysfunction, stunts and anger becoming more and more extreme. what would happen in your office if you elbowed your coworker in the kidney, challenged him to a fight. >> editor at large the spectator and fox news contributor. renew democracy. one on earth is happening here

in d.c.? is everyone going nuts? >> i think what you are seeing is the ramifications of this type of clown show that's been going on for so long that things naturally have to escalate. you knock off one speaker and everybody loses their minds. this is one of those situations where i will defend a little bit of what is going on. i think these are people who genuinely dislike each other and have not figured out a way to navigate to that in this particular moment. when mark wayne stands up like that, he has a universal sign of a guy that was actually ready to punch somebody. four women, the equivalent of taking off your earrings. and then when it comes to the mccarthy thing, i don't know if it was a security guy what actually happened there in the jumble. everyone is on edge. everyone is absolutely on edge.

the reason is they are bouncing from chaotic see our moment to chaotic cr moment without any kind of resolution. the mccarthy experience with him getting vacated in no way loose indenting of the energy that was caught up in d.c. if there is a change that somehow people could come together after it and be able to work together, that was chaotic, but let's move on. no one is moving on. >> if i do not like your answers , i will be elbowing you on your way out. [laughter] >> does this deserve all of the coverage that we are getting? >> there is an element of republicans being divided. i think there is something more fundamental. it is very easy for people to talk about the party patronage was bad. it's good were in this era of small daughter donors and people speaking to their audiences. but it is bad.

we have an incentive structure where all these members of congress are looking for viral moments. a couple weeks ago there was an article about nancy maces handbook being released. she is spending more than one third of her budget on marketing a third of her house office budget. things like showing up with the scarlet letter a. not a student of hawthorne, as far as i can tell. that is because, unfortunately, we have a culture on the hill where politicians get attention for behaving out of line. >> the media is partially to blame because we award that. >> i'm not sure legacy media is to blame because i think that it is, i think it is how they interact with their constituents on social media. how they raise money from people all over the country. the new communities of supporters of these people. >> and i just interjects? the jamaal bowman moment.

does that hurt him with the same kind of people? or is it an indication that he will fight the way that i like people to fight? it is not just one side that has this problem, we now have these politicians turning to the small dollar donors. the easiest way is to do something chaotic. >> now we will get to a viral video. chip roy a very conservative congresswoman from texas, a republican, they have not accomplished much of anything. he stood up and gave this speech >> one thing, i want my republican colleagues to give me one thing. one that i can go campaign on and say we did. explain to me one material significant thing the republican majority has done. >> well, i think the frustration there, i have known chip

personally for more than 20 years, the frustration is palpable because he was a former staffer in all of these different entities. he is someone who worked for john cornyn, he's been around for a long time. the business of congress is something that is been almost entirely ignored on all the different priorities he has. obviously, the border is a major factor there. again, circling back, there was some hope at least along these conservatives and someone who supported mccarthy in that original deal they cut him and supported them until the end, they hoped they could move on some of these things that they would have some kind of progress it is the business as usual in the same kind of bills they were passing before. >> doesn't chip roy deserve some credit for standing up?

>> of course he deserves credit. any politician willing to speak out always deserves credit. i actually am not sure that that moment will translate to democratic talking point wins in the way people may think. it is a little bit hard to understand spirit i think that that moment is a little strange. >> they don't have context. we get seven seconds of that. republicans have done nothing. >> that is true. republican congressman in his own words. i think republicans this week have given democrats a lot of material. >> fair enough. it is not an easy thing to deal. challenged the republicans succumb to the floor. mike johnson avoided a government shutdown. maybe you heard something about this by pushing through another one of these stopgap funding measures. keeping the governor functioning until early next year.

is it the same thing that led to kevin mccarthy's ousting? >> it is exactly the same thing. you've got a new coach. he has been here for just seven years. six-seven years. he has not build up the enemies that have been there longer. it is an open question of what he is going to do when he gets out of that honeymoon. and he is facing all the same challenges that mccarthy was facing, republicans are facing generally. having such a slim margin in just one half of the body of congress. >> as with kevin mccarthy, democrats bailed out the new speaker because all but two of them voted yes on the stopgap funding measure. i have a sense of déjà vu. is the press sick of this story?

did not get the sky is falling kind of coverage that the crises did. it vanished pretty quickly. >> i think there's a lot more going on now. i think that the conflict, the israel, gaza, hamas is creating a lot of pressure. getting closer to 2024. people are shifting into an orientation around the election. i think the sports med affair or is a good one. this is more like young love and relationships. you cannot make it work and then you realize you are doing all of the behaviors that could have made that previous relationship successful. house republicans in kevin mccarthy is out.

and, so, that just gives the media a lot less to recover karma is not met gates friend. >> too soon to have a divorce. of course if there had been a government shutdown it would have competed for the mideast war and so forth. does the media like this because this is an entertainment value? the near fistfights? >> i do agree that the media is tired of the story. trying to go through this saying the sky is falling and having to educate people on what all of this means when a lot of folks have tuned it out. you will always get more eyeballs on the kind of things we saw this week. >> when we come back, he and

tacked on that massive demonstration, the contrast, will the violent pro- palestinian protest at the dnc. feeling ughh from a backed up gut? miralax works naturally with the water in your body to help you go... ...free your gut. and your mood will follow. for 8 grams of fiber, try new mirafiber gummies.

among the speakers spoke of the anguish of hamas. >> we hostage families have lived the last 39 days in slow motion torment. >> he was protecting people when he was taken by hamas.

since then, our lives have turned upside down. from a place of deep pain. >> bring them home. bring them home. howard: all the media attention being brought to these rallies around the country, what was the impact of this huge pro-israel demonstration. >> i think the impact was significant, especially in the minds of those that have witnessed those. across the country without a natural response. you can hear the response that happens within the media and commentators saying this is not representative of the way that most americans feel. i think it was very important to see, particularly on a weekday where congress was in town i could see it for themselves.

that was a significant moment. the pro hamas demonstrations will not stop anytime soon. >> i saw several people interviewed who said they are also concerned about civilian and gaza. the pro- palestinian demonstrations supporting the destruction of israel. >> i think the march for israel, obviously, they are united in a cause around the jewish state. but, they are not a monolith in terms of how they think various aspects should be handled and how the u.s. government in particular should intervene or not whether it is support or a pause or not, a whole range of things. there were a lot of reports about how the views were. in contrast to folks in these processes fire rallies. they have one cause. they are pursuing an overton

window style approach. of course they will get covered in a different way. >> all the people came out not necessarily jewish. christians and gays and so forth let's go to the video of the pro demonstration where things turned violent. half a dozen police officers were injured. what a contrast. >> this is not just a contrast. i think it is a warning side -- sign that is flashing red. going into next year's democratic convention which obviously i think has the potential to be a very bright this event if this kind of heat continues spirit we sell, obviously, the most chaotic thing. the most chaotic thing is recently everything coming out leading to her bipartisan

censure. i think it is something that we have to understand. it is not going away. whatever situation is on the ground, it will still be a major problem to deal with and could lead to violence next year. >> on a larger scale, i suppose. lawmakers like jeffries inside the building there when the protesters blocked entrances. much more aggressive tactics that we are seeing. not every demonstration, but certainly this one. >> the democrats have to come to terms with the snowball effect. especially very young voters that we saw this week. osama bin laden's letter to america with viral and you know all these young people on tiktok pursuing, promoting that. >> we will talk about that later howard: let me just say, i know you will talk about this later, that is something that i think china is definitely happy with

in terms of seeing that development habits. >> also the other day at fox news headquarters in new york, protesters have invaded the lobby. they were chanting about genocide, if we can put that up. >> 5678. howard: police made arrests. one more quick thing. los angeles times has now barred three dozen plus journalists who signed a letter accusing israel of genocide. barred them from covering the war. you can be a journalist or you can be an activist. once you sign up like that, i think that was the right move. we can roll the prompter. elon musk embraces and anti-semitic tweet and young people online as we just mentioned defending the mastermind of 9/11?ti ♪on hello 12 hours of relief. 12 hours!!

when the guardian republish osama bin laden 21-year-old letter to america, it went viral on tiktok with many young people embracing the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. >> i am not about to sit here and act like he is just the worst person in the world when america has literally been terrorizing people since the beginning of history. howard: since taking down the letters although it is still accessible and tiktok is deleting the videos. griff jenkins joining us now. i find it mind boggling a profoundly depressing that there could be sympathy and support among tiktok is for the man that killed nearly 3000 americans with hijacked airplanes. >> that is exactly right. i printed out the letter. all 12 pages and try to read it through the eyes of the young people. the worst terrorist that could end up at the conclusion that

somehow 9/11 was justified and america is this evil satan that they live in wanted you to be. all i can arrive at is feeling such pain that the families of the innocent americans lives were taken on that day. it is boggling and troubling. howard: cadet support for osama bin laden, even among the ill-informed, i think a lot of people just do not know the history, israel was attacked, of course, be related to this paragraph where bin laden said they through hundreds of thousands of soldiers against us and formed an alliance with the israelis who oppress us and occupy our land. >> here is the concern. i think when you look at this, worst case scenario, china is succeeding at disillusioning the

next generation of america's leaders to not only hate their own country, but also to buy into this occupation is rarely narrative. best case scenario, you have a case of a lot of misled youth who think they have become these internet indiana jones sleuths that somehow discovered some forbidden knowledge that america was always evil from the beginning and they just need to be educated. here is the real troubling thing 32% of young people get their news from tiktok. we know among one third of america's next generation, there are leaders in their, so what do you do to try to stop this? not sure you can. >> not everything on tiktok is bad but this is appalling. elon musk facing criticism. jewish communities pushing hatred against whites. you have said the actual truth. he then tried to backtrack.

then he accused of antiwhite racism. why would the owner of x go there? >> i don't know. we were discussing musk with the hdl. now this one feels a little different. he has embraced this tweet that was viewed as a motivation for the massacre at the tree of life synagogue. what happened was not a boycott. you saw a unilateral pole of advertisers like ibm and apple. this may be more than musk wanted to bite off. i am not sure that we will see it go the right way. by the way, this will play out tomorrow morning. the second the courts open tomorrow morning, he is filing

the lawsuit against media matters. the advocacy group that constantly goes after organizations like fox news. he will file suit against them. highlighting this. >> it is still his tweets. the white house put out a statement calling musk tweet a hideous live. i think that this one is not a story. thank you. next on "media buzz". the press offering joe biden campaign advice while savaging donald trump. ♪

it was rather stunning. tim scott dropping out before telling most of his staff. >> i am suspending my campaign.

i think the voters who are the most remarkable people on the planet have been really clear that they are telling me not now , tim. >> jonathan martin saying the campaign is in trouble while suggestions to turn it around. warning of the dangers if donald trump gets back in the white house. >> it is becoming clearer by the day what a second term for donald trump would center around , revenge or as he often puts it, retribution. >> joining us now is jim garrity olivia beaver's congress capital hill for politico. i assume you're not shocked by stories about how the biden campaign can get itself out of this ditch. the best case scenario is

another four years one of the first paragraph, biden cannot do the job the way he used to. this very casual mission that the president turns 81 tomorrow, happy birthday, mr. president. the president is really old. how do we hide this? how do we downplay the fact that the president is very old. >> the former president turns 78 tomorrow. the advice was higher rob emanuel to run your campaign and put hilary in the middle east. four example, core elements of democracy, foreign policy and the rule of law. not exactly positive press.

>> i just want to go back quickly. i will say it's a column that tends to be more conservation a list. the one thing to highlight is he has predicate thing interviews with dozens. that is sort of where that came from. as for the pieces about donald trump, that is where we will see democrats raising an alarm about what he means. donald trump is definitely stepping out and being himself. does that create concerns about how he will have an impact on the country? that will be the main talking point for president joe biden. >> putting out a statement saying this is just speculation on the part of the press. there was a piece about his extreme immigration crackdown that they had him cooperate. would tim scott really be

talking up nikki haley who has done well in all of the debates and coming up in the polls. you think dents are overplaying our chances? >> a primary where very little has changed. the main story has been ron desantis who looked like a reasonably close second place. we are cheap dates. it does not take much to get us excited. 5% to 8%. this is exciting. it's not that exciting. >> but it's all we got. >> talk that the next debate may only have two candidates. a little bit of talk that trump may jump in. really, of those three, one is still way ahead of the other two >> we do have to keep that in mind. i would be surprised if donald trump showed up. not great for the american public. why the fascination with nikki

haley and not ron desantis? i know he is not in the polls where used to be. >> we are seeing the race for the second place. if you remember, a lot of talk and hype about where ron desantis, before he entered the race, we saw his campaign stumbling and now we are watching nikki haley slowly coming up as number two especially in these early primary states. the broader emphasis is who will be the top republican tried to challenge trump and will she be able to make any impact on the numbers? >> right. if you get any one-on-one information. joe mansion says the following when asked a question about an independent bid. >> are you considering running for president? >> i will do anything to help my

country. >> jim, several big-name pundits said it's a great idea. he told brett there that trump, if he got reelected, would be destroyed democracy. him getting in what hurt joe biden and increase the chances of the second trump term. >> the tone in that interview is joe mansion would like to be president. he would like somebody to make him president without having to work for it. this vibe of an overwhelming hunger and fire in the belly and all that stuff. also, i might destroy democracy. >> why i pointed it out. one other thing i want to get in here, george santos after a blistering report, accusing him of raking the law, he won't run

for reelection, filing it to expel him. what are the odds that the house will now pick him out? >> waiting to see if he chooses to live on his own. it is basically two days after the house comes back. urging all the press members to be there. >> showing off for the press. >> four sure. we have reached out to basically every house republican office trying to gauge where they are. those numbers are slowly taking up. trying to see if enough republicans will vote to oust him before he has time to make his announcement. >> this was really a tough report accusing him of deceiving donors, money from the campaign. other luxury items.

>> the biggest critics in the house felt he was misusing the funds. some arguing they want to wait for conviction in court before they take those steps. criminal wrongdoing. pretty significant that the head of house ethics is a one now filing this resolution. >> well, the press will miss george santos if he goes. a train wreck of a story. who lead the video of donald trump's former negotiating georgia prosecutors.

within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections. >> that one comment sent the media into complete meltdown. >> you have to look. anti-semitism across the united states. donald trump echoed the dangerous language of infamous fascist leaders. >> the term vermin was really

effectively used by adolf hitler >> donald trump is not known for his language. i don't like him saying this. the moment you say this is like adolf hitler, people have this image of a little mustache. at his worst, you don't see that at a trump rally. some of that is over the top. comparing them to animals and stuff. that is generally an indicator that trouble is coming down the pike. these people are not really human beings. we used to do this. supporters with this latest lab.

>> making his entire name off of pushing where the line is and should be in getting the press to write about it. reading some articles about it before i came on. some are saying the press should be paying more attention to this that ulterior counterpoint is probably overdone trying to throw bone for us to look left. >> ratings and clicks. i want to play some sound from this. this is a video leaked to abc and the georgia criminal case. former trump lawyer who has since pleaded guilty is offering prosecutors what she had in order to get a plea bargain.

>> not going to leave under any circumstances. we will just stay in power. it doesn't quite work that way. >> former trop -- trump white house official. representing a secure codefendant admitting during this period. >> could we see it dismissed because of this? the public citizen would be like seeing this in her work, it feels like this testimony is revealing. trump was directly warranting this. did not care. on the flipside, if this is meant to remain behind closed doors, then someone leaking it is messing with justice. going into these negotiations, this is private. they probably should be nervous about the camera is there. there is always a chance that somebody will break those rules and put it out there. >> no question it is unethical.

seems to me those videos leak for one reason. >> i am part of the press and i always say i like leaks because i like the argument of transparency. mr. miller, he came forward and said i'm the one that did it during the emergency hearing and now they will be putting more protective order on it. i think they will be trying to protect the court hearing moving forward. >> i like leaks, too, but i do not like leaks that break the law potentially or ethical from the criminal justice system. donald trump one at least a temporary gag order from an appeals court judge. a judge -- rejected his request for a mistrial. it will not change this judges mind, right?

>> probably. i am perfectly fine with gag orders as long as they are narrowly tailored. stop threatening my clerk had stop threatening me. it all strikes me as very reasonable. you cannot comment on this trial it does seemed like a very clear first amendment issue. stop tweeting. stop putting stuff out there. you have that free constitutional right to say that let the chips fall where they may. >> i don't know if you can say that on television. [laughter] we will believe that if we can. i'm kidding. [laughter] another factor here is the defense started donald trump junior testified. they are artistic, they are beautiful. media kind of mocked that, but what do you expect them to say? china painted a different picture than the prosecution in that trial. thank you so much. many days of negative headlines. we will go to israel. what soldiers actually found in

the israeli government which has endured harsh media criticism from storming gaza's hospital release in london did seven minute video footage troops found their. >> there are cartridges and ammo , grenades in here and uniforms. all of this was hidden very conveniently secretly behind the mri machine. >> showing new york times reporters the chef that. to be the entrance to an underground tunnel. fox news correspondent alex hogan. the discovery of that weaponry and the rifles in the uniforms at the hospital affected all of

the global criticism that israel has drawn for storming the hospital? >> how we, it was definitely the discovery that we heard the idf say we would find for days before the idf actually moved into the hospital, the largest hospital in gaza. they needed to wait because of the number of patients inside. we have heard them say that there is a hamas stronghold. a command center underneath the hospital. what we have seen, undeniably the weapons we have found in the hospital you just show there in the mri room showing not only the weaponry, but the grab bags that hamas militants would have taken including weapons, grenades and there. they made a specific point in this video when they started filming saying this would be a one-shot, there are no edits here to prevent conversations from playing out in an international stage about is

this edited? did the idf plant any of this. that was a goal to make sure that this video that really was a seamless video. but we have not seen as a major command center that hamas said was blown. they did find something more in those tunnels and they would provide some of that evidence that has not been provided just yet today. there are still several hours to go. this is the start of the week here in israel so we will likely hear from more israeli officials tonight. howard: i don't think it is a coincidence that two hostages were found dead outside of the hospital grounds. that was part of the concern. i agree that because they have not gone into the tunnels for concerns about booby-traps it is not definitive certainly but although they have found such tunnels at other children's hospitals and other children's schools. i know it is a more complicated explanation that israel attacks hospital.

what does the media have a responsibility to play this is much as a previous stories. why do doctors need grenades? >> finding any kind of weaponry like that in the hospital is extremely alarming given that any moment someone could open the bag thinking their opening medical supplies and be unaware that there is a grenade in one of those bags. especially when people are coming to hospitals like that to get treated. we have seen in some of these hospitals medical equipment right next to weapons. there is two things playing out at the same time. of course there are doctors there that are not associated with this whatsoever. we heard the un talking to the doctors and medics and organizations there at the same time. there is an undeniable amount of evidence that we have seen militants in those hospitals and using some of that. essentially as a human shield is what the israeli government has been calling. >> patients getting killed as

has happened making israel look bad but the palestinians in bed for that very reason. this is an information board which is why wanted to focus on the coverage. alex hogan, thank you for joining us and stay safe. >> thank you. howard: that is it for this edition of "media buzz." check out my daily podcast. millions of downloads. the days top five stories. we are back here next sunday 11:00 a.m. eastern. we will continue to cover elon musk story. it will get bigger by the day. anti-semitic tweets he is taking criticism four. as was osama bin laden story in the middle east story in the presidential campaign going on. we will see you then with the only media analysis on national television. ♪
