the stabilizing the economy. republicans have won 218 seats in the us house of representatives. so this gives them just enough to control the chamber with 6 others. the still being counted, the democrats have $211.00 seats so far. president joe biden has congratulated the republicans and promised to work with them. but this when in the midterm elections could give them leverage to block his agenda, she returns he's joining us from capitol hill. so they've won the house a bit in fighting is escalating amongst the republicans. she toe mile tomo in the republican party with the establishment of the party, blaming the trump wing for aging, swing voters and independent voters and the trump wing. actually saying that the problem was that we weren't bold enough. we were to bipartisan over the last 2 years we gave bite and too much now is the time to really, to really go off to the bite administration. give them nothing. the irony being the

that's the, the wing of the party that has the leverage right now is that trump make america great again, maga maga, wing of the party of the current leadership of the republicans. and specifically, kevin mccarthy, in the, in the house needs the votes, if he wants to become speak up in january. so the question is, how much will we have to give away what concessions will he give to them and will about them alienate, independent springboard is going into 2024 with your stablish wing of the party. and the house without term will continue. so yeah, very difficult time for the republicans. we are getting an idea of what their gender is going to going to be, or they don't have. i mean, the legislative biden's legislative agenda is effectively blocks because you need both the house and the senate to pass things. but already now we're seeing the republican saying they're going to golf to joe biden, to investigate joe biden, to have subpoena power in the house. now with their committees, so they're going to investigate hunter bite, and joe biden, some business dealings. what connection joe biden had to those? and also we understand that they're just going to try and make life very difficult

this is the most beautiful building in the world because of what it represents. the capital is the temple of our democracy, of our constitution, of our highest ideals. on that day. on that day, i stood with my father on this floor as he took the sacred oath to support and defend the constitution of the united states against all enemies, foreign and domestic. all of us who have served in this house have taken the hallowed oath of office and it is the o. it's just use us together in the long story heritage colleagues served

before us or all our colleague colleagues like abraham lincoln, daniel webster, shirley chisholm, patchy manc and our beloved john lewis personally advised me as a colleague to my father, a proud new deal to congressman and one of the earliest italian americans to serve in the congress. and this is an oath we are duty bound to keep and links us with the highest aspirations of the ages. in this room, our colleagues across history have abolished slavery. granted women the right to vote, establish social security and medicare offered a hand to the weak care to the sick education to the young and hope to the many. indeed, it is here under the gaze of our patriarch, george washington, in the people's house that we have john, the people's work. my colleagues,

indeed, american democracy is majestic, but it is fragile. many of us here have witnessed his fridge out fragility 1st hand tragically in this chamber. and so democracy must be for ever defended from forces that wish it harm. last week, the american people spoke and their voices were raised in defense of liberty, of the rule of law and of democracy itself. with these elections, the people stood in the breach and repelled the assault on democracy. they were sound at lee rejected violence and insurrection. and doing so, gave proof through the night that i flag was still there.

and now we owe to the american people our very best to deliver on their face to forever reach for the more perfect union, the glorious horizon that our founders promised the questions before others. congress in this moment are urgent. questions about the ideals that this house is charged by the constitution to preserve and protect, establish justice insure, domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. our prosperity, our children,

babies born today will live into the next century, and our decisions will determine their future for generations to come. while we will have our disagreement on policy, we must remain fully committed to our shared fundamental mission to hold strong to our most treasures, democratic ideals, to cherish the spark of divinity in each and every one of us. and to always put our country 1st in their infinite wisdom, our founders gave us their kind, their guidance. e pluribus, own them from the one they could not have imagined how large our country would become or how different we would be from one another. but they knew we had to be united as one we the people, one country, one destiny is been was great, pride in my 35 years in the house. i have seen this body grow more reflective of

our great nation. our beautiful nation not came to the congress in 1987. there were 12 democratic women now there over 90 and we want more. the new members of our democratic caucus will be about 75 percent women people of color and l g b q. and we have brought more voices to the decision making table. when i entered leadership and 2002, there were 8 of us today. there are 17 members of the leadership.

when i 1st came to the fort 6 years old, never would. i have thought that at some day i would go from home maker to house speaker. in fact, i never i never intended to run for public office. mom and daddy taught us through their example that public service is a noble calling and that we all have a responsibility to help others in our family. my brother tommy then became mer baltimore also. but his mom am i, in my privilege, to play a part in forging extraordinary progress for the american people. i have enjoyed working with 3 presidents achieving historic investments and clean energy with president george bush him transforming health care reform with president barack obama

and gorging and forging the future from infrastructure to health care to climate action with president joe biden. now we must move boldly into the future, grounded by the principles that have propelled us this far and open to fresh possibilities for the future. scripture teaches us that for everything, there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven. my friends, no matter what title you all my colleagues had bestowed upon me. speaker leader
