ah and activist radical and the founder of african cinema, out in the world, tells the story of the more italian direct. but it is from making the style for that he made the breakthrough into a friend. the way to me is a mode was a fighter. his weapons were his mind and his intelligence made honda rebel african, tell me on how to say ah,

3:02 am
ah, there'll be a 7th boat in about an hour's timers. kevin mccarthy bids to become speak of the us house of representatives for 2nd day. the republicans failed to convince a group of hard liners to give him the top job about 20, refusing to support him. he needs at least $218.00 boats to be elected from engine reports from capitol hill. well, there has been some progress. unfortunately for kevin mccarthy, it has been negative progress yesterday. he had 19 votes against him. then by the end of the day, it was 20. now it's $21.00. and he is significantly far from the $218.00 votes. he needs to become elected speaker. the republican party is in disarray right now. they want to govern, but they can't get out of their own way enough in order to take the 1st step. and
3:03 am
the 2 sides are getting together. this block of freedom caucus republicans is sending representatives and so is the mccarthy camera they're trying to come up with some kind of agreement. but what that is is hard to say what that could be. mccarthy is given in concessions on nearly everything they wanted and it seems that the thing they want most is mccarthy's head. they want to block him from becoming speaker to display their power. and then they want to pick someone who is more like them. someone who is fiscally conservative, someone who wants a more democratic small di process in which each member has more power in this speaker has less mccarthy's already agreed to allow just 5 members to vote, to remove the speaker that would bring it before the whole house in a majority would have to vote to do that. that wasn't enough, or some of them said they wanted. every member of congress did use. well, joining us live on scott from montana, north dakota is full us democrats, and it's
3:04 am
a heidi height camp. she's found of the one country project focused on solving issues in rural america. welcome to the program. first the, what do you make of this extraordinary saga? well, i think it's playing out that the, the ongoing civil war within the republican party is playing out in front of people in full, in full view of the american public. this is not something that is new. these conflicts have been ongoing, even beginning with the freedom caucus and the tea party movement back in the early 2, thousands and so, you know, when we look at it, we haven't seen it this blatantly but it's not really a surprise. we've known for probably 3 months, or at least since the election that kevin mccarthy did not have enough votes, certainly on the 1st ballad to become speaker of the house. we just didn't know how many. i think most people were surprised by that by the margin. but you know,
3:05 am
he still got the, he still has 200 of his members who believe he should be the speaker, and that's a pretty good position still for kevin mccarthy. let's be honest though, is there a degree of satisfaction from democrats watching the republicans in such turmoil? oh yeah, i think there is a lot of there's a lot of people who really wanted to make the point about how united in spite of the spectrum of ideologies within the democratic caucus, they have been united and consistent and staying on task and on and appearing for every vote, even though they know that hakim jeffries will not become speaker of the house, they are showing their unity. and i think, for all of the, the criticism of speaker pelosi over the years. i think there's a lot of people who are smiling now in the democratic caucus saying she was an extraordinary leader and compared to this debacle,
3:06 am
she was really exceptional. and i think it kind of proves the point about democratic unity, but also the strength of democratic leadership and the succession plan that she put into place. so by comparison, it's been a really good couple days for the democratic party. but how much does all this political infighting mean to the wider electorate? could this end up affecting their daily lives in any way? really? i, i think the, the, the quick answer is no. i'm in part because without the senate it's going to be very difficult for the house to advance their agenda. and so regardless of who the speaker is, i'm, it was going to be a republican, that republican was going to initiate investigations, was going to basically have a lot of show me votes or, or votes that we say,
3:07 am
we're really intended to adopt policy, but simply provide kind of a political stepping stone for that side of the aisle for the republican side of the island. so you know, i, i, i, i have really fight batt again, against characterizations of this as catastrophic. and you know, terrible for the country. you know, at the bottom of the line, it's terrible for the democrat or for the republican majority in the house. but that is kind of a meaningless thing to the rest of the public in this country because they weren't going to be governing anyway. and whatever happens in less than i was time or looking further ahead, how would this weaken kevin mccarthy? whatever happens? well, actually i, you know, i'm probably in a minority when i say this, i think of kevin mccarthy does become speaker. i actually think it strengthens him, had he won by one vote and there would have been all the, the kind of detractors kind of nipping at his heels if he is successful in pulling
3:08 am
this off. and it looks like there may be a deal in the offing where he will become speaker if he's successful in doing this . i think he emerges as somebody who didn't blink, who held his ground, who even though it was embarrassing, went to, you know, 6 boats. and didn't get his majority. i think he will emerge stronger if in fact he becomes bigger the house. ok, we'll see what happens honey. hot temp, we appreciate your insights. thank you. you bet. take care. the past in an ambassador to the un has spoken about the impact of is valiant national security minister is my bank of is incursion into the aisle axa mosque. compound, accompanied by ambassadors from several arab and muslim nations. we had them on sir, says palestinians are outraged. the attack is not only against our holy sites in a lock so most and in the hot m sharif. there are because of this environment of extremism that this is the really extreme government,
3:09 am
the extremist in the history of israel, is providing is lay deemed to additional aggression against our christian sites. christian, graveyards, you've seen by now that there are crosses over, you know, graveyards, being trampled upon an attack by extreme settlers. this is a toxic environment. the international community has to speak with one voice. our diplomatic editor james base has more. well, there's been a flurry of diplomatic meetings taking place here at the united nations meeting of the arab group of ambassadors, then a meeting of the ambassadors from all islamic countries and then representatives of those 2 groups meeting with the current president of the security council. japan, he'll preside over the security council meeting that's going to take place on thursday, the palestinian ambassador, making it clear they want very tough action from the security council. it's worth
3:10 am
noting that among those ambassadors surrounding the palestinian ambassador were the representatives of 2 countries that have long had diplomatic relations with israel . that's jordan and egypt and also the ambassador of morocco and the deputy ambassador of u. e. 2 countries that the more recently have had more friendly relationships with israel. it's also worth telling you that one of those ambassadors, the ambassador from jordan, my mood ha, mood spoke also to reporters. jordan has a special role as the guardian of the holy sites. the king of jordan has a special role as the guardian of the holy sites in jerusalem. he made it clear and reminded reporters of the year 2000. when the then israeli opposition lee ariel sharon, went to the alex amongst compound. and he said that at that time the security council had produced a resolution. this is it 1322, which condemns what it says was the provocation that had been carried out. and he
3:11 am
and the other ambassadors say they want to see another resolution like this passed by the security council, because he made it clear back in 2000 that that act was the spark that started the 2nd into foreign a. someone who covered that on the ground in the west bank at the time. that's something that certainly that the international community, as, as doesn't want to see again, israel's new government has unveiled plans for an overhaul of the justice system, which will significantly weaken the supreme court critic say it will give benjamin netanyahu the government, the power to undermine democracy. by passing laws, the court teams unconstitutional. supreme court is due to debate anew, passed by the government, allowing a politician convict of tax offenses to serve as a cabinet minister or manager done far as an israeli. iranian middle east analyst and lecturer at israel rockman university. he says the proposed changes could threaten israel's democracy. the fact is that once somebody is elected ok to have
3:12 am
the people's mandates, but what happens after that they can do whatever they want to know because it has to be a supervisory body that checks them. what they're doing with the people mandate is legal. it's within the law and it protects the rights of minorities and the citizens, and that's the job of the that's the job of the judy sheree. and this is something we've had since the birth of the state of israel. this is why we've been a liberal democracy, but once this happens, if the government is going to be successful, then the government can do whatever it wants, basically. and you can do things which are even against the law on the and the, and the supreme leader and the supreme court cannot stop them. and this is going to be the end of it is rather the liberal democracy will become something like urban or victor. all the hungry and populace them all. ah,
