is and i'll just go to the polls amid and you can nomic crisis with many hoping for radical change. october on a tuesday era the, the office of speaker of the house of the united states house of representatives is here by declared vacant. and as toward zones, kevin mccarthy is removed. the speaker of the us house of representatives, the play you're watching l g 0 live for my headquarters in the back door also ahead at least 21 people accuse me of venice in italy after a bus lungess from
2:01 am
a bridge and catches the streets a completely empty, all that you can see here, scott, a few check points on the entrance off fund can deep alger 0 gains, exclusive access to the now does it has capital off kind of bond cost to the excellence of the economy. and the richardson of the asian games in home, jo showing of finding out swipe, india decided this would be the it would be sending of cricket seems to the events the thank you very much for joining us. we begin in washington, d. c, where the us house of representatives has voted off. speaker kevin mccarthy. in historic showdown. this is the moment the motion passed. the gays are 216. the knees are 210. the resolution is adopted. without objection,
2:02 am
the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. the office of speaker of the house of the united states house of representatives is here by declared vacant. one is the 1st time being house speaker has ever been ousted from this role. a coffee refused to answer questions as he left the chamber after the vote is uncertainty as to who will replace him and no confidence motion was put forward by federal republic and not gave he another hon. 9 members of the party accused of a coffee of making a deal with the democrats to present a government shut. please, no, this isn't a critique of the individual. it's a critique of the job. the job hasn't been done. we've done multiple multiple contradictory promises and it's just quite something for those of you keeping track at home. the last 3 speakers you've heard opposing my resolution, all voted for the debt deal. so like if you believe that the debt limit deal that
2:03 am
speaker mccarthy brought into was a good thing. maybe you agree with their perspective. i think the debt limit deal was a terrible deal. and that's one of the reason it really was the original sin of the mccarthy speakership. and it's one of the reasons i seek to vacate the chair. now here's, i'll just, there is my kind of on capitol hill with more on how the voltage voltage that it was history in the making never before as a us house because being voted out the last time the motion to the katie was invoked was way back in 1910 and it failed then, but on this occasion it did not fail. house democrats joined h ha, dine republicans to get the majority needed to both on to the speaker of the house . kevin mccarthy. now this is a combination of months of political infighting among the republicans and certainly this in fighting is likely to continue if not intensified as a gether. now to decide when the boat for a new speaker will take place and indeed,
2:04 am
who are going to be the candidates full of that particular position. now in the, in the short term, patrick mchenry, a north carolina republican has be nominated by mccarthy as a speaker pro temporary, that means he's a temporary speaker. he will be in place until a process speaker is voted in. and until that happens, the house is crippled. business is basically at a standstill. so it's absolutely fundamental the important for the republicans to come together to come up with candidates. and to get that vote in place, montana, i'll just sarah washington or, or let's get the reaction now of adolfo franco, who is a republican strategists, he's joining us from fort myers in florida. thank you very much for speaking to us . um, a devastating day. no doubtful. karen mccarthy who thought he could get the warring factions of the republican party together. tell us what is about your reaction. i know you met with them about a week ago. how do you feel today?
2:05 am
well, i, well, i feel terrible. and i think most republicans feel horrible about this, just a couple of things. your report was excellent, mag gauge has comments that anybody is watching and keeping score. well, i've been keeping score under kevin mccarthy. 70 percent of the spending the. ready have been passed by the house. the democrats had passed and nothing when they were in control. legislation on energy has passed, the house of border plan has passed the house. these are all promises he kept. this is a 5 c majority inter divided government. the reality is we have a democratic president, we have a democratic senate, we don't have absolute majorities. mister gates is living in a fantasy world. so i feel terrible for a man was accomplished so much for our country to be hosted. i'll tell you what he said last week, which is done. this is going to be a show down for me, either there with me or guest me. if they're not with me, they can find someone else. and i'll tell you one other thing in june of last year
2:06 am
i met with kevin, you're washington dc. kevin mccarthy. congressman mccarthy. he at that time primarily told me that he would need a 20 to 25 seat majority to have a working majority. and today proved that right, you can run with 5 or 8 extreme us in your party that are really prepared to shut down. not only the congress but the government. ok, before i ask you about what kevin mccarthy is likely to do next, i want to to, to get just your view on, on mike gets you described him as living in a fantasy world. do you think there was a personal there was a personal element involved in this oh here in his district currently i'm in mister d. ready his district, does i speak to you? i can tell you that there is a personal adams, this is entirely personal. with mr. gates, it goes back a number of years in 2002 in 2018. when the rest of a republican speaker under fire, ryan speaker, ryan to resign was mass cases. that would be chaos for us to replace the speaker
2:07 am
and turn to fly. ready over to the democrats, these done would be opponent correctly 5 years ago. it is driven personally, it is a personal vendetta. and the speaker is right when he says so, and mr. gates almost alexis out. right, in terms of what the speaker was, that guy will make a little news for you tonight. uh the speaker will not see could speak to him, a car will not seek to return to the speakership. i can tell you that this night definitively he will not see the office again. very interesting uh that you tell us this because he did say that he wanted to fight and the expectation was that he would again perhaps put his name forward for the role of speaker. again, you know, you're doing it for me. he will not do that though. there will in short order republicans need to find an alternative. we can speak about that in very short order. your viewers need to understand that so long as there does have speaker board cameras, your excellent report presented,
2:08 am
but the speaker for tim has no power. it just keeps the door to the lights and open all because of the house. everything in the house has come to a stop so long as there is not a speaker. nothing can be done in our government. nothing can be done to move the people's agenda forward, so the republican party immediately needs to failed to see. and of course, if the speaker mccarthy as much as he would want to fight would come back on the floor. he's not going to have these a member exchange. energy is different every confession and back to the concessions in my opinion. okay, so there will be a new, a new leader, but to project over email elected this evening. okay, very interesting. before i ask you who that new leader might be, i wanted to play to you, mr. franko, the reaction or former us vice president mike pence, who was speaking live on stage when use of mccarthy's also was broken to him. taken listen, american will be secure and the world would be more peaceful. thank you,
2:09 am
and i'm going to interrupt with some breaking news. mr. vice president democrats have joined with republicans to oust kevin mccarthy from the speakership of the us house of representatives. clearly this is developing as we're talking right now, but with the development like this, what sort of a message do you see something like this sending to um, to other countries about the stability of us government? i mean, the speaker of the house is arguably the most powerful member of that chamber. and what do you think this says to countries who are looking at what's happening here? well, let me say that k us has never america's friend. and it's never a friend of american families that are struggling and i'm deeply disappointed. but
2:10 am
a handful of republicans would partner with all the democrats in the house for representative style speaker of the house. but i expect before the week is out, they'll be more votes. who will be elected, speak for the house, and i expect that the most of the republicans of the congress will vote again for kevin mcarthur the way they voted 15 times over earlier in the year. as well as you heard that the former vice president lost for words without long pause before he answered. and he believes that kevin mccarthy would be elected speaker again, or that you are telling us, mr. franco, that is not going to put his name forward again. tonight, so if not my coffee who that well that i agree with the vice president. but i think that was a wishful thinking. the answer is no. kevin mccarthy, again. ready not be a candidate for speaker. he will does, does not have the votes touching the alternative. the immediate alternative is the majority leader, stevens police, a more conservative member. uh then uh,
2:11 am
speaker mccarthy and politically, although kevin mccarthy is a conservative, no question about it. he's part of the leadership and it is the next in line, so to speak. there are some obstacles to mr. salise. he's quite ill. he's being treated for cancer, so he has some health issues to deal with. and secondly, i have no idea what the demands are going to be because of the 8 or 9 hold out of. ready it's, it's the same leadership team. there are other or congress not congressmen, emerich of minnesota is another one is acceptable to certainly the, the more conservative members of the congress. but one have to keep something in mind here. 18 republicans, part republicans were elected in districts that president biden carrie in 2020. and those 18 republicans are not, in the most conservative wing of the republic either of the republican party. they are not going to tolerate a selection of someone to run for that position that does not
2:12 am
share at least monitor views. so it's this potentially, we could have a speaker elected again, and we can see this rerun again in the future. republican selected the speaker um actually the facebook kevin mccarthy face today we moved again and you know, something that came out of that a short sound bite. we heard from the vice president the form of vice president the see the image. this gives us as negative impact on the us perception outside of the us. so of us leadership issue. well, you know, when you think about the war and ukraine and, and all of the us allies, when it's folds, you know, that the k all set this for trays actually is something that is of concern to american leadership. is it not? absolutely. and i would say it's even more than the perception and you, you're absolutely right of the question, i will add that just a moment ago the associated press reported that speaker mccarthy will not seek to
2:13 am
speakership, so viewers it out the 0 heard it 1st, exclusive. thank you very much for for the yes. you did. uh, but uh the uh, but it's more than k us. i will tell you what it is. it is going to create economic damage if this is prolonged at all and it could be prolonged. i hope it's not the case. it would be certainly a situation where the stock market, which took a in united states, it died today, but it was reduced. it will cause not only chaos overseas, in terms of production of american leadership, but at home the people's business can't be done and then it needs to be done. secondly, we have a government that's scheduled to shut down in 42 days. exactly. and there's a lot to be done to, to, to bridge those differences and every day that the speaker is decisions vacated. there are, but there's just nothing that there can be done. lastly to the international
2:14 am
viewers of the speaker mccarthy. a kind of deal with president biden on your claim to reduce level but you for a claim that cannot be taken up until the in the house and we have a speaker. and then of course that was a deal that former speaker now mccarthy caught, which president buying. so the new speakers that bound by that of so 8 to your planning is now a big question at any level. and we're also now also going into an election year. and do you have a house in chaos? does it not give a stronger house to the democrats going into the elections next year? they might win the house again? well this, this episode of loan is politically damaging, even if it's repaired quickly. this will be using television commercials into chaos and so forth. and if it's prolonged, and i fear it could be repeated, we saw tonight to be repeated as soon as $45.00 days from when there's another
2:15 am
government up to a situation where the government shut down or funding of the government. so politically speaking, it is a very, very, very, very difficult for the public and parties, and i think it's self inflicted wounds, potentially fatal. that was completely unnecessary to keep in mind as i said. oh, nearly 20 seats in the house are in districts that president biden carried. so that means those seats are very, very competitive for republicans. and many of those voters are going to think twice about re electing of a republican in the people's business. cappy don started all franco, thank you so much for talking to us and thank you for bringing us news that of the speakers having the coffee a saying that he will not run again for speaker of the house. this was just announced just a moment ago by the associated press news agency who spoke to kevin mccarthy, and he told him that he will not run again for speaker. and this basically puts up
2:16 am
a gamble up for grabs after his stunning allister earlier today. so my coffee not running again for speaker of the house. the best turn our attention after the days of in use and at least 21 people have died in a bus crash near the tale and city of dennis 55 to said the boss caught fire after carrying off a bridge. 2 children are among the dead. the tie in time mister georgia maloney has expressed her profound condone gigabyte at least the color south. it's about a sheet of what it is, but i don't know as you can see me, the post went off the road at the height of more than 10 meters. we. it's about 3 power electric bus. so it caught fire someone and they found the people inside the bus engulfed in flames. seen that the fireman had to deal with was really difficult, really bad. so i'm in thailand, police in bangkok have detained
2:17 am
a 14 year old boy with a history of mental illness, soft or shooting, and an up market shopping mall. eye witnesses at the pack gone shopping center said the attacker appeared to open fire at random as sharp as fled. at least 2 people were killed. tony chained reports from outside them all in bangkok. so just off to 4 o'clock on tuesday afternoon and shop as rush for the exit, and one of the bank cooks by and shopping them in the confusion, a gun shop rings. there was this gunshot off the gunshot. i heard about 5 shots firing. and uh, everybody was just running and running, had just schedule all over the place some time on the way. and i asked why they said, because there's some terrorism and then some how, how to get out of the place. emergency services were quick to respond to the

2:26 am
drive it down to 0, hunting deep. so by john former crypto currency mobile sam bagman feed is on trying for fraud in new york. he's accused of stealing millions of dollars from customers of his f. t x crypto currency exchange. it collapse last year. prosecutors that describe it as one of the largest fraud cases in us history. christian salumi has more from outside the court house in new york with jury selection as be got to send back. winfrey did not walk past the cameras into court today as he has in the past because he has been awaiting his trial in jail. his fail results by the judge for witness tampering. but he did appear in court through a private entrance wearing a suit and a much shorter hair cut than we're used to associating with him. he of course, became the face of this relatively new crypto currency industry as the head of the exchange of t x. someone who was hobnobbing with celebrities and making large political
2:27 am
contributions. that of course, all came crumbling down with his $32000000000.00 f t x currency exchange. uh, and that is what he is here facing charges about attorneys questioning potential jurors in the case today asked how much they knew about the case. they asked how much they knew about sam vaccine freed and his business. but at the heart of this, it is essentially a case about fraud and money laundering. he is facing 7 counts, and the prosecutors in this case will have to show that he knowingly missed directed funds from his customers. that can use that money to buy real estate to make investments, and to make illegal political contributions for of his former co workers, including his ex girlfriend and the former chief executive of his hedge fund.
2:28 am
alameda research have all pleaded guilty, and 3 of them have agreed to testify against him. once the jury is selected, in this case, does go to trial, it is expected to last 6 weeks and it's been freed is found guilty. he could spend what amounts to the rest of his life behind bars. kristen salumi opposite ear of new york. a former us present donald trump has returned to court in new york for the 2nd day of his civil front trial. trumpet has 2 funds and the trump organization are accused of using full financial statements and inflating the net worth 5 billions of dollars. the former us president denies any wrong doing kimberly's on to how does this report from our side to court in the day 2 of the trial here at this court house in new york city. and the trial is turning a little mundane. and what i mean by that is the witnesses that are being called now are accountants, appraisers, bankers and consultants. because at the core,
2:29 am
this is a case about property value, which means it's a case about numbers. of course, the attorney general claiming that trump and his associates intentionally inflated the value of trump properties in order to get more favorable loans, which would be a crime. but trump and his lawyers have been arguing in court and are trying to lay out the argument that there are many different ways to do property appraisals. and that they are saying that the numbers that were used by the attorney general's office to bring these charges are simply incorrect. so that is what the case is dealing with right now with some of these witnesses that trump arrived here in court. he's here and he does not have to be, he's volunteer to be here. as he went into court, he spoke to a journalist and he attacked the attorney general that brought these charges
2:30 am
against him. we're breaking into that report to take you live, to washington dc where the former house speaker kevin is speaking after his office to the office, you'll see the portraits of lincoln and gregory, i firmly believe a rag and gave us advice. he would say, if you believe your principles bring people greater freedom, you should be happy. all has been it all has been excited that i've been a happy consent for i've always believed that i've been so fortunate to be in america. my journey to this office for something people wouldn't understand and grew up in a town of bakersfield, california, the son of a firefighter, the grandson of immigrant parents worked hard. the youngest in my family.
