striking blue a warm welcome to the program republican kevin mccarthy. his last a 3rd round of voting to be the speaker in the us house of representatives. after hard liners from his own party, again voted against him. now the republicans took control of the house with a narrow when in november's mid term elections. and mccarthy was considered the front runner. but he's now fallen short of the $218.00 vote majority. 3 times. the democrats, however, have united around there and so many hacking jeffries to finish 1st in all 3 rounds so far. it's the 1st time in a 100 years that someone vying for the role of house speaker hasn't one in the 1st rounds. john hendrick joins me live from capitol hill. john 3 rounds of voting no winner. when are we likely to see an end to this?
1:03 am
well that's the question of the day that had a trick and not a good unkind the freedom caucus or a group of them has defeated kevin mccarthy. 3 times now on 3 ballots in it's unclear how the mccarthy team is going to go forward. it doesn't look like they're making any progress, persuading members of that republican subgroup to join their forces. in fact, on the 1st 2 votes, there were 19 of them. and the 3rd vote there were 20 doesn't mean a big surge is growing. but it also means that kevin mccarthy isn't gaining any adherents. so what happens now, they tend to vote until they can stop the there's some arm twisting going on, and the cloak rooms in the side of the house. and there are inducements that have been offered, but this group republicans really wants to disrupt the system. one of the things they wanted was to weaken the speakership. they again to confession from kevin mccarthy when he said that he would allow the new rules to say that only 5 people
1:04 am
had to vote together in order to bring up a vote to oust or remove the speaker. well then they said no, we want it to be one person who can call that vote. so any member of congress, any of the $435.00 people would be able to do that. and the republican said otherwise, the requests this group is making other largely to get their own members on various committees. and the answer from mccarthy's team has been that's not how we do business. we decide who's on the committee after we decide who is speaker. so until they can decide who the speaker is, they can't pass any legislation. they can't name anyone to committees. there's really nothing they can do. so they will just keep on voting until either kevin mccarthy wins or gives up. and john, just this mark of their real breakdown in republican party unity and how embarrassing is this to be playing in front of the whole nation? in fact, the rest of the world to it's a huge humiliation. and you can see
1:05 am
a bit of shot in florida in the faces of the democrats each time the vote, and they all clap because hakim jeffries has gotten the most votes, but not the majority needed in order to win for the republicans. just suggest they're not. they're not in a position to really effectively run congress. now, to put this in perspective with this really make a big difference. probably not whoever is speaker is still going to have a democratic senate in a democratic president, and it's gonna be hard to get any legislation passed other than those mandatory spending bills that have to go through each year. but it could take a while to do this, and it's interesting to point out that this hasn't happened. a 2nd ballot hasn't happened for 100 years. john engineer live at the latest from capitol hill. john, thanks for keeping us up to date. when we nationalize a former senior congressional aide to, to has republicans and she says the far right of the republican party is using this moment to challenge what they consider to be the establishment. this is not
1:06 am
happened since 19 twenties. and i'll say on its base, anyone can see this is a huge embarrassment, not only to mccarthy, but to the republican party as well as to our nation. know it, republicans not only looks so divided right now in their inability to rally around one person to lead them up. this doesn't look good for the body. that is congress writ large. of course, this is only one change of address, but in general, it highlights exactly what's happening within public party right now. the spirit divisions, the argument, and truly take you on the veneer of trump in order to try to decimate the republican establishment. it is the far right flexing their muscle, that is entirely it they've tried to do so for a decade. and in general, what can be said is that over the course of a trump's time in the white house, the house freedom cocher up. talk as, excuse me, those bar, right, wiggers in congress had actually increased their power. and so here's this moment
1:07 am
where they get to really stick it to who'd be consider, are there any, is the people within their own party, people like congressmen, mccarthy who has had his eyes on the speakership for a long time. now the u. s. says it's deeply concerned by a far right is really minister's visit to alex a most compound. saudi arabia, the united arab emirates, and jordan vall condemned the intrusion which the palestinian leadership is cold. quote, an unprecedented provocation. national security minister. it's a mar been kaffir into the complex 5 days after becoming a minister. a decades old agreement allows non ms. them to visit is lumps 3rd holy a site as long as they don't pray, will then give your has called for greater jewish access to alex. so, but my minister benjamin netanyahu says he's committed to strictly keeping the status quo. will the visit risks stoking tensions with palestinians amass bolts? person said a continuation of this behavior will bring all parties closer to a big clash and has been
