♪ ♪ ♪ and welcome back to our continuing coverage of the chaos in washington, d.c.. it has been quite a day in quite a night. first, kevin mccarthy lost his 60 vote to become house speaker. the house then adjourned around temps a deal making. consumed members reconvene briefly, only to adjourn again until noon tomorrow. the would-be speaker announcing more upbeat about his chances. cnn's manu raju first broke that news for us. he joins us again tonight from the capitol. so, why are things looking more upbeat for mccarthy? >> he's hearing some more positive responses from those opponents, the people who have

essentially seemed immovable for the past two days. but after a meeting in which mccarthy made a number of concessions on arranging on political issues, how the outside group engages on some key issues as well as giving more power and more sway over themselves the rank and file, at the expense of the leadership. some these members sound like they're moving in his direction. congressman mike cloud, four, one sounds like he's moving. he says these talks are moving in a positive light in his view. as well as scott perry, another opponent of his. chip roy, another one as well. chip roy just mentioned to me earlier that they still want to see every thing they've talked about in writing. so, there is a significant amount of work to go. now, there is also a lot of tension within the ranks. i just talk to congresswoman marjorie taylor greene, a member of the far-right house freedom caucus. but she has been an outspoken supporter of cam macarthur. she told me the republican party looks like an embarrassment right now. and those are her words. and she also went instead she

spoke to congressman byron donalds, who was nominated today to challenge that mccarthy, who received 20 votes, enough to deny mccarthy the speakership. she said she told donald essentially that he needs to figure out a way for this to and. she said, i said, how did he respond? and she said, he sort of acknowledged her response. and she says that she is getting attacked by conservatives. and even though a lot of the members of the house freedom caucus are supporting kevin mccarthy, they need to figure it a way to end this. so, the pressure is really growing from all sides here. but real indications that potentially, kevin mccarthy can get their. but he's just not there yet, anderson. because of the narrowness of the house republican majority, 222 seats, meaning he can't lose more than four republican votes. already, there are four very, very hard no votes. others, like ralph norman, who is not considered as part of this for very hard no vote just told reporters moments ago that his position has not changed. others are signaling that there

are still not there yet. so, there will be more negotiations to be had. but nevertheless, mccarthy, as he left the chamber sounded very upbeat. he's been sounding upbeat as he lost these six ballot votes. but he still believes he can eventually get there. can you get there by noon tomorrow, anderson? still a question. i asked him that question directly. he said he does not want to put a timeframe on it. but he says he believes progress is being made. talks will continue. he will eventually get there, anderson. >> manu, it's interesting. we're just talking to former congressman charlie dent, who's saying dent was surprised at the reporting that it is kevin mccarthy's super pac that a number of these far right rebels, i guess you would call, them -- [inaudible] >> yeah, and it's going to be an impact that that would actually had. because really what they are talking about are safe open republican seats that are open

seats. so what does that mean. non incumbent members of the open house. they're not top of those seats. they're talking about when there are no republicans running for specific seat. and it is considered a safe seat, not a seat that democrats could potentially pick up. so, it would not involve essentially the makeup of the house republican conference. but it could alter the ideological makeup of the republican conference. and that is really the core of that fight. because those members, that outside group, the club for growth, which had pushback against kevin mccarthy's outside group, once more ideological conservatives, more far-right conservatives. they don't want some of the more establishment might at republicans that perhaps kevin mccarthy would be more aligned with. so, that is really the issue between those two. though that agreement is significant, because i've heard from a number of republicans talking pretty positively about that tonight, including mccarthy himself, to have that repeatedly to reporters as he came and went back and forth from the chamber. and we will see how it influences others who are

weighing whether not support him. one of many concessions mccarthy's making and weighing, as he's pushing to get to 200 me team votes, just not there yet. >> yeah, manu raju, think. you i want to go to cnn's melanie zanona with more developed. she's also at the capitol. what are you hearing, melanie? >> well, there's been a flurry of meetings. tight so i'm told that kevin mccarthy met with a group of freshman members who voted against him. this is really an opportunity to get some facetime with these members, who have not had that opportunity because they are new to congress. and basically, just walk through some of the concessions that he already made and some of these promises in greater detail. but the bigger negotiations going on tonight are involving chip roy and some of mccarthy's allies. and i am told that these are some of the most serious and productive negotiations they've seen thus far throughout this entire saga. and chip roy tooled gop leadership that he believes, based on how these negotiations are going and if they pan out, that he can bring ten members along with him. and that additional members might be willing to vote present. now, obviously that's a big if. that being negotiations going

the right way and all ten members actually flipping to vote for mccarthy. but that doesn't bring him to 218. he still has a long way to. go and i think it's an important distinction to separate some of these oppositions, some of these opponents. you have people like chip roy who seem to be trying to get something in earnest. he says he is still pushing for a number procedural and policy issues. he said he is still pushing to make it so a single lawmaker can call for a vote to depose the sitting speaker. he's also pushing for more representation on the house rules committee, which is important because that has sway over what bills come to the floor, how they come to the floor, that sort of thing. it's very inside baseball. but it matters a lot out here. but he made a distinction when he was talking to us earlier. he made a distinction between himself and some these other opponents who have been trying to make more personal asks. i reported earlier today that matt gaetz, for example, went to mccarthy's office on monday evening and made a list of demands, including wanting a subcommittee gavel on the house armed services committee. but chip roy is seeming to put

some distance between himself and some those asks. but really, is gonna come down to the mat of course. and how many members are in the never kevin camp. as of right, now we know of five republicans who say they are firm knows. as of right now, that includes ralph norman, as manu mentioned. he came out just months ago and said he is still going to vote for byron donalds on that first ballot. so, mccarthy is trying to wear down his opponents one by one. it is starting with this group as being led by chip roy. but that will only be the beginning of his path to 218. >> is there any chance if they don't feel they have the votes by tomorrow at noon, that they will try to adjourn again? >> it's totally possible, anderson. so, mccarthy's camp right now, the feeling is they need to show momentum on the next ballot, whenever that is. so, if they, if they're getting close but they're not there yet at the next vote, which presumably will be new tomorrow, there's a chance they try to adjourn again. obviously, that will take 218 votes, so they need agreement to do. that but they feel like they're

doing -- moving in the right direction. they want to be able to show that the opposition is shrinking, even if he does not get to 18 on the next ballot. they want to show they're moving in the right direction, not the wrong direction. because it goes the opposite way, you can start to see other candidates jumping, and you could start to see some republicans collin mccarthy to drop out. it just would not be good for him. so, that is why you're seeing such a hard push tonight, anderson. >> melanie zanona, thank you for joining. now joining us is republican congresswoman maria salazar, who voted for chemically and all six house speaker votes. congresswoman, i appreciate you joining us. what's your lives understanding on where things stand tonight? >> wonderful to be with you. well, i think you know democracy is messy. but i think the opposite is unthinkable. you know, i have said the city of miami. i was a journalist for many years. and i think one of the angles that we should be covering, specifically you be one of the top anchors in the nation, is that if these 20 holdouts were to be in nicaragua or cuba or

in venezuela, they would be in jail. and facing the firing squad. and that is not the case here. so, i know that is uncomfortable, we don't like what's happening. but at the same time, it's the best democracy and is democracy at its best. >> so, what do you -- are you concerned about more concessions being made to try to appease these 20? >> no, no, what i'm concerned about is what the rest of the country and the rest of our enemies are going to be thinking about. i think that is why this party, our party, the republican party, should be very cognizant of we are sending the wrong message to our enemies and to those that i just mentioned that our friends with china and russia in our hemisphere. we are still trying to be the beacon of hope and democracy in the world. so, we've got behave accordingly. >> right, but my question is, you support kevin mccarthy, you want him as speaker, i assume

you want to see him as a speaker who's effective and can get things done. do you worry about him making even more concessions that will weaken his power and his ability to actually get the policies that you and he want to get done? >> i don't have that concern right now, because as i, said he is negotiating. and he is going to bring whatever he is doing or negotiated or dealt with with this group that want to vote for him to conference. >> are you okay -- >> i mean, he's part of the democracy party is. well >> are you okay with a change that would let one member make a motion to reject the speaker? is that something you'd be okay with? >>, well that something that would disrupt and cause a distraction. but i repeat, democracy is messy. and remember, i go back to what i just told you at the beginning. i stay with what's happening right now versus what's

happening in cuba, venezuela, nicaragua, china, north korea. >> right, but that's not -- >> when we look at it from a positive angle? i mean, i think there is another angles of the story. of course, that -- >> but no one's actually trying to vote what's happening in cuba or china or nicaragua, where does trying to get a vote done on the speaker of the house. >> of course, and i agree with you. and i would like to get that done by tomorrow morning. and i know that is not happening. but it does not matter. it's part of democracy. this happened in 1855, and you know, it took three months for a speaker to show up. i know i would like this to be happening tomorrow morning. but i think we should look at the story from another angle. >> okay. >> it's messy, it's bad, it's uncomfortable, i don't like it, and obviously we want to get to business. but it's democracy. >> jake, jake tapper -- >> it's not. perfect but the alternative is not applicable. >> jake tapper said earlier there is a republican rational source that said there is an appetite to put steve scalise name into nomination. obviously, congress adjourned

and said. do you feel there's an increasing interest in congressman scalise being the person who could actually end this whole thing? >>, listen i'm going to vote, and i'm going to be with whomever 80, 90% of the conference is with. >> okay. >> and i think scalise has been a fantastic leader. but i do believe that kevin mccarthy, and it's not necessarily we are the best friends. but i'm trying to be fair. mccarthy five years ago raised his hand, and said, hey, i want to be speaker. good luck. and he traveled the country, he raised funds. he put us in the majority. he helped some of us. he put together something called commitment for america. and then the people elected him. so, why are we not giving him a chance? well, because those 20 think otherwise. but i repeat, it's such a fantastic system. you guys are covering

everything by the minute, which is the way it should be. those 20 are talking to the press. they're having their moment of glory. tell me, where else does this happen this way and there's not a civil war right after? >> congresswoman salazar, i appreciate your time tonight. thank you so much. >> sure, thank. you >> perspective now from our analysts -- , also cnn political compton and former pennsylvania republican charlie janet, and cnn political commentator john goldberg. congressman dent, let's just go on to, what do you think is happening right now behind the scenes. >> well, it sounds like the bizarre is open, the stores open. and deals are being made. and you know, like i said earlier. let's see what they do on this motion to vacate the chair, if that comes down to five or one. again, that is self destructive for whoever the republican speaker is. again, just hand it roped your opponents to hang you with. there is that. and again, i'm still stunned about this super pac agreement. i mean, to the extent that they will end up nominating

republicans who are on the far right fringe who will not be part of the governing majority, they will not vote for the things that need to get done. those people will get elected. and in some cases, they will elect democrats, because of those folks will be too far to the right. again, i just think it's very self destructive. somebody should talk to the more moderate pragmatic members of the house republican conference about the deal. i can imagine in the mojave about. i think they'll be livid over. that super pac will not pay in primaries. and of course they should. and everybody knows it. so that shows. at the door is wide open. and the deals are being made. whether it gets the necessary votes, i'm not sure. seems like there are at least five hole. that's >> jonah, i mean, you know, if it is mccarthy, and more details are made to make it mccarthy. can he actually be an effective speaker with all of the giveaways? >> well, i agree with charlie that, you know, selling off bits and pieces of the job will make him weaker than he

otherwise would be if he didn't have to do all of this. but let's not forget, with such a tiny majority that the gop has, you can put steve scalise in, there and he would have a very hard time governing the republican caucus, republican conference. it's sort of set up for chaos and failure and rancor and all the rest. and the other advice i'd give you, disagreeing with charlie, as i don't think the issue is -- i agree with him that's not in the issue -- this we deal with the talk about. but the issue isn't necessarily that these candidates are gonna be too far right. it's that they're going to be too much in the sort of matt gaetz model of being performative, and not actually caring about the job. chip roy, if it was a guarantee that we just have more chip roy, that would be one thing. but because chip roy actually kind of cares about doing the job, matt gates cares about being on tv and getting attention and clicks. and this is an effort to get more of that style republican into the conference, which will have serious damage the rest of the party.

>> jonah, do you think those five hard no votes can ever be swayed? >> doesn't sound like it. maybe if there is some sort of japanese yakuza type thing where kevin mccarthy agreed to start cutting off fingers out of apology, that could do it. but it doesn't sound like it. they are to commit. when you take the position that you would rather have jeffries as the speaker, have a democrat as a speaker, you've kind of just sort of, you burned your ships logically and ideologically. and it's in the interest of some of these people for chaos. chaos serves them. so i think at least some of those last five, bags, matt gaetz, others, i don't think you can get them to flip. >> and you said mccarthy is on track to get off not just, one but several stores in order to win the speakership? is it clear how much power to you he would actually have? >> you know, i agree with jonah here.

he would not have much power if he actually makes it. and neither would steve scalise or byron, donald, any of these other folks they are putting forward. it's the nature of the giveaways that he, whoever would have to make to give this caucus. and it's the nature of that motion to vacate, which is now five, could go down to one. so, whoever is in that seat is going to have to constantly think about the fact that they have to please these five people are those five people can ban together and raise the motion to pull the speakership. we've seen this time and time again, right. this could be history repeating itself. because we saw this happen with boehner. that's why he left town, because the threat of the motion to vacate. same with paul ryan. so, this is a very organized band of people. they're not necessarily committed to any sort of ideology another nine sticking it to who they view as the establishment. i may certainly view kevin mccarthy that way. and in some, ways whoever would

be in that opposition as the speaker of the house, i think withdraw their ire. so, i think we are seeing this transformation of kevin mccarthy from somebody who had been with the young guns, right, with paul ryan air canter. they were policy rolex. he never really was. but he did want to hang out with them. and now is hanging with marjorie taylor greene. so, this is a full-on transformation. it's in some ways why those five people, and a few more's, i actually don't believe he is a true believer in any real cause, that his real causes kevin mccarthy. >> congressman, dan the former presidents endure that's meant, hasn't really meant much in this whole saga? >> i don't think it has. anderson i've said before, i think it's really terrible the former president is trying to play in a leadership election, or any president. you know, ronald reagan, the bushes, clinton, obama, would never get involved in the house leadership election. those are family fights to be decided among the members.

and you know, to the extent that mccarthy owes donald trump, you know the speakership, i don't think that's good for his more moderate and pragmatic members who represent districts where donald trump is the kiss of death. what did we learn from this midterm election? that donald trump's endorsement was problematic to so many candidates who lost races that should've been won by republicans. so, why tiger self to trump? trump should stay that out of this. >> our panel, i. appreciate, next we go to cincinnati for the latest on the medical condition of buffalo bills damar hamlin, who as you, no class on a football game monday. night doctor sanjay gupta on the truman is going. also ahead, alive -- kill of four university of idaho students is being extradited to tonight. what he faces when he arrives, and when we might learn more about the case against him.

promising. all the family members and the family spokesperson, jordon rooney, telling us the family is still taking everything minute by minute, day by day. really holding on for hope. outside of the hospital today, fans were stopping by and, you know, expressing their well wishes. and really pulling and rooting for damar hamlin. >> the nfl vice president of football was emotional today during a call with the media. what did he say? >> yeah. troy vincent didn't appear on camera when he spoke to us but as he spoke you could hear his voice trembling. and i want to quote something, he said that really stood out, he said there is no playbook for managing a realtime surround emotion associated with the immediate life-threatening event that occurred monday

night. he also went on to say that the game of football, i am paraphrasing here, anderson, is guided by policy and best practices. there is only one policy of practice that matters that evening. and the emergency action planned by the responders. and as he spoke, he paused to, even though we cannot see him, i imagine that he wiped away tears. we could hear him crying and we could hear his voice shake as he was just so vulnerable and transparent. he said this is real life. this is a moment that he is reliving. and he talked about the emotional trauma that not only the players on the field witnessed, but everybody who was in that stadium, and at home watching. >> there has been, you mentioned fans coming outside the hospital. there really has been an outpouring of support for the hamlin family and around the country. >> yeah. jordon rooney told me earlier today that the family

is overwhelmed with gratitude. they had to turn some folks away because there has been so many meals offered. we talked a lot on our air about the gofundme account linked to damar's foundation. and they topped $6 million. initially, it was a gofundme account created, he wanted to raise money for a toy drive. he wanted to give back and help people in his hometown. you know, we have heard a lot about his heart. you know, his heart stopped, and the heartbeat was restored on the field. but damar's heart is really with the community and we have seen that as you try to stand in and fill in the gaps. a spokesperson for the family said that he is a type of person who aspires to inspire others. so really, filling the gap for young people and being perhaps what he maybe didn't have when he was growing up.

>> appreciated, thank you. joining us now is chief medical correspondent, doctor sanjay gupta. you spoke with a chief medical officer tonight, what did you learn? >> i think that we have got a good sense of the protocols that go into place when something like this happens, anderson. it starts even before the game. there is this meeting, it is called the 60 minutes meeting happening 60 minutes before the game starts, where the medical teams from both sides get together and they really go over everything, they do drills on what could possibly happen. they have a person who is clearly in charge of running a resuscitation should one be necessary. someone who is in charge of carrying the defibrillator. actually didn't know a lot of the details of these types of protocols that takes place at all in football games. they have a level one trauma center standing by, obviously, an ncld. they gave us some sense of how those things were played out with regards to mr. hamlin, team

doctors go out first as soon as they determined that more is necessary. there are hand signals and radio. they do both because it could get very loud in the stadium. they bring in the paramedics. and we saw some of that unfold, but it was hard to get a sense of it if you were just witnessing it. but all of those things are taking place, and there is going to be lessons learned here. they think that it went really well in terms of the resuscitation. that is how they described it. but there's always more lessons to be learned and they are going to be applying those going forward. >> adrian mentioned that the bills tweeted today that he showed signs of improvement. this is, what is the course, what do doctors look for? >> yeah. i mean, i will preface by saying just having taken care of many critically ill patients, it can be a rollercoaster ride. so there could be improvements, even minute to minute, and it is a bit hard to assess at this point. typically when someone

says that there are signs of improvement, given the nature of what we know, his cardiac arrest, and the impact on his lungs as well, it would probably revolve around that. is his heart starting to take over more activity, requiring fewer medications, is it becoming easier to actually ventilate, and use the breathing machine without having to use higher settings? those are the sorts of things that you are looking for. are his vital signs stabilizing? again. it could be a long, right and it could be a rocky ride from day today. so you might hear improvements one day, a little bit of a step backwards the next day, and also, anderson, as he wakes up, one of the things that you are really going to want to see is has there been an impact on other organs in his body, including his brain. hopefully not, hopefully there was enough circulating oxygenated blood, but that is not going to be an issue. these are the sorts of things that we will be looking for on an hourly, or even more frequent basis.

>> obviously, details of his condition, you said when he wakes up would he be kept unconscious, or is that -- what is the status? >> when someone's heart function is not adequate, there is a couple of things you need to do. one, you use medicines to try to improve the hard function, that improves the amount of blood that is circulating throughout the body. at the same time, you can decrease the demands that the body has on the heart. you can do that by sedation, and the sedation that would require someone to be on a breathing machine. they may use something known as hypothermia, you and i have talked about it, but when you actually cool the body you are lowering the metabolic demands that the body has on the heart. you are trying to give the heart and lungs a bit of a break here. that is a bit of what is likely going on. you are allowing the body to repair itself, and put it in the best environment for it to do so.

[ marcia ] my dental health was not good. i had periodontal disease, and i just didn't feel well. but then i found clearchoice. [ forde ] replacing marcia's teeth with dental implants at clearchoice was going to afford her that permanent solution.

[ marcia ] clearchoice dental implants gave me the ability to take on the world. i feel so much better, and i think that that is the key. well, we fell in love through gaming. but now the internet lags and it throws the whole thing off. when did you first discover this lag? i signed us up for t-mobile home internet. ugh! but, we found other interests. i guess we have. [both] finch! let's go! oh yeah! it's not the same. what could you do to solve the problem? we could get xfinity? that's actually super adult of you to suggest. i can't wait to squad up. i love it when you talk nerdy to me. guy, guys, guys, we're still in session. and i don't know what the heck you're talking about.

>> new tonight, the suspect in the murders of the fouruniversity of idaho students has landed at an airport tonight after being

extradited from pennsylvania. a plane arrived at the mosque a regional airport moments ago. the tension now shifts, the probable cause affidavit outlining the evidence to justify his arrest. it could answer many outstanding questions about the investigation but it most likely will not be released until after he appears in court there. i want to go to cnn's gary tuchman live in idaho. you are close, by can you describe the scene when he landed? >> yeah. he just landed about ten minutes ago, anderson, at the airport in washington which is right next to washington state university. where he worked, and where he was a graduate student. that is only 15 minutes away from where we are right now. members of the news media there, police were there, he's been flying for 13 hours today on a plane that is much slower than the typical commercial plane that you fly, or other people. fly so it took 13 hours for two stops to get here, but he's now here. we expect him to arrive here at the jail in moscow, idaho, across the state line about ten

minutes from now. this is a key moment, because we have been told that once he is here once he is inside this jail behind me, authorities here will be able to release the probable cause affidavit, if it is publicly release like they have told us it will be, they will talk to us, and will tell us about the motivation, authorities believe this man had when he allegedly carried out the murders of four people in a house just about five minutes away from us. we will answer questions like did he know any of these for people? do authorities believe that he knew. so we are waiting for those papers, that affidavit to be released. we are not sure if it will be released tonight, or tomorrow when he is expected to have his initial appearance in court. that time has not been told. but we expect it will be tomorrow. during the appearance in court, he will not make a plea, you will be told about his rights, about the protocol for the case, he will then have a preliminary hearing, with an issue of plea, either way the extradition of this man is now complete. he is back in the area where he is alleged to

have carried out these murders. >> and you have spent a lot of time in that area. obviously, i know that you talk to people, there's a lot of relief that at least somebody has been caught. whether or not he is guilty or not, what is the mood like? >> yeah, there is a lot of relief. this is a very small community. moscow, idaho, is a population of 26,000 people. it is a beautiful town, it is a very charming place. and there is very little crime here. when we talk to people yesterday who said, most people i would say who say that they occasionally do not lock their doors, a lot of people say that they never lock their doors. and during the last seven weeks, everybody was locking their doors. and

everybody was scared, people were going out in a buddy system when they went out. people were just terrified because they didn't know when they were walking down the street in this area or in washington, right across the border, if there was a killer on the loose. he has to be proven guilty in a court of law, but there is a very big change here in this community. >> we appreciate, it thank you. we will have more now with the investigation, and what comes next, we are joined by criminal defense attorney sarah azari. so now that the suspect has landed back in the region, we are expecting the of a david to be unsealed at some point, as mentioned, what does it have, what level of detail doesn't go into? >> first of all, i have missed you, good to see you, happy new year. the probable cause affidavit is critical because it lays out the evidence that supports the arrest, essentially. that this is the right suspect. probable cause is the lowest standard we have in the criminal justice system. but it is still a standard. as of now, anderson, all we have is there is dna at this home and there is a car, make, model, and year. this hyundai that was near the scene. that is not enough, even for probable cause. so the question is, of

course all of us want to know what else do they have that is supported getting this man arrested. you know, i think that one of the issues is going to be one of the developments today, that the defense team for kohberger was at the home, and it sort of indicates that there is a parallel investigation going on, and that there might be a motion to change venue, and a motion to keep this affidavit sealed. not sure if it is going to get granted, but the judge is going to weigh the interest of the public and what is in it, of course, and of course the interest of this defendant for due process. because really, he's not getting much due process. >> as we have reported, the suspect's attorney says that he believes he will be exonerated. so he already has a defense team on the ground there. there is questions, obviously, the dna that was apparently used, that will likely become an important part, or play a role. how hard is the dna evidence, it is somewhat controversial if

it is familial dna. >> right, exactly, it is controversial familial dna and also, dna these days is the technology, it is fairly accurate. hard to refute. but all it does it's placed him there. i don't know about you, anderson, but i had a lot of dna in my college crash bag. this was a party house and while he was there, when was he there, who else was there, that is the question. when he got arrested, his eyes were spooky, he didn't say anything, he didn't jump up and down and proclaimed his innocence, and he shouldn't, and he didn't. what he did say was did you make any other arrests? that is a really good question. are you singling me out or have you really gone through and done a thorough investigation to identify any and all suspects. that is going to be important down the road.

>> what grounds would a judge decide to keep the affidavit with all of the details in it to keep it from being released? >> i think that it is going to be a very high profile case. it is very hard to get a fair and impartial jury down the line. i think even with a change of venue that the hole -- looking at his interest, and his rights, the interest of the public in knowing, what more do you have? we only know what you show. one more thing that i have to share is this stop when he was driving with his father. in no way it indicates that he is a flight risk. he is driving, not his father. it is winter break and i don't think that there is anything unusual about a father and son driving and bonding. >> he was stopped twice, which is interesting, by police

within moments of each other. obviously there is still a lot to learn. we will see about the affidavit, i appreciate your time tonight, thank you. in a moment we are going back to capitol hill for breaking news. we just learned about a new author being made, can it get him to 218 votes? that is the question.

-- about what kevin mccarthy's team is offering exchange for a yes vote in this uphill build. manu raju has the latest let's go back to him. what have you learned? >> a source tells me that they have in fact made an offer to these conservative opponents, filled with a bunch of changes. i am told from a source that this is a quote, substantive offer that they have made to essentially give in to a lot of the things that they have been suggesting. my source did not want to reveal all of the details on it. we have a sense of what they have been asking for, they want more power, they want better efforts to influence legislation. they call for a vote to do just

that. this has been on the table, they are banding for sometime. now this is the catch, , anderson i am told that even if these conservatives were reviewing this offer, this is not going to be enough to get kevin mccarthy to 218 votes. some members of the 20 block group, the 20 members who have voted to oppose kevin mccarthy, but not all of them. some others have different concerns that they are trying to work out piece by piece, which is why there is some belief that his close allies are making significant progress, they are bringing off some support, but they are not there yet. so this also raises the question about whether or not tomorrow at noon, when they reconvene, mccarthy can finally get the votes to become speaker. it appears that it is going to be a very

difficult task, to get there by noon tomorrow. many more negotiations will need to be had. there are discussions that may need to take to the weekend into next week to get this all hammered out. but the moment, one big possibility here is that they can peel off some support with this new offer on the table that conservatives are reviewing as mccarthy pushes to 218. >> thank you. we have more on the buffalo bills player damar hamlin, while he remains in critical condition, something remarkable is happening. not only a mass outpour of support, but a crowdfunding effort, next. we sit down at the kitchen table, pull up the ancestry app, drink our coffee looking at all the information, all the tiny details. dad, check this out. colorize it. look at that. wow. everyone has color. look at that afro. that was the style. you had to have it, otherwise you're not cool. see what else we can find here. wow, i'm getting good at this already. now on sale, at ancestry. ♪ ♪
