i imagine daddy's teachings for relevance to. ah, gandhi's legacy starts january 20th on p. w with ah, ah, business d w. news live from berlin. a 2nd day of chaos in the us congress. republicans failed to break an historic dead love over a new house speaker. party hardliners blocked the frontrunner, kevin mccarthy, in a 6th round of voting. also on the program brush deploys new hypersonic cru,

specials as vladimir putin armed forces come on, the growing pressure of the setbacks on the battlefield in ukraine. berlin's mac calls for a youth summit for a night of violence on the streets of the german capital on new year's eve leads to widespread damage in scores of arrests. ah, i'm all on sancho. welcome to the program. we begin in washington and the 2nd dramatic day in the u. s. congress. republicans in the house of representatives have again failed to elect a speaker for the 6th re time conservative. kevin mccarthy lost his bid to lead the republican majority in the house. his election is being blocked by a group of rifling members who defied an appeal by former president donald trump,

to back mccarthy law my. his have adjourned until thursday, allowing the republicans to try to work out a new strategy. hey, earlier i spoke to d. w. correspondence to me, so must kunda in washington, and i asked her if this away, the house republicans could sold this crisis. although we don't know exactly how they're going to solve this crisis. we just know that they're working on it. we've heard rumblings and rumors that kevin mccarthy has been huddling with his critics. those who have been standing in his way on the path to be the speaker of the house and trying to crank out some concessions to bring them over to his side. it looks like things might be moving in his direction, but none of that has actually played out into a vote on the floor of the house of representatives. so that means we're going to head into a 3rd day and a 7th round of voting. and some of our viewers might be wondering where does this actually go? what this is, pretty new territory here in modern politics. it hasn't happened in 100 year. so lawmakers themselves are navigating the situation,

but we know they're going to continue to vote until they select a speaker of the house. that could be kevin mccarthy. it could be someone else. we could just see a several rounds of voting ahead of us. but let's see what progress is made in negotiations through the night in the morning. now, if this goes on for days or longer, maybe, what does that mean for congress? well, it means the house of representatives essentially cannot do anything. the house of representatives has to elect a speaker before it can commence official business. that means that no bills are getting paid. that means that no members of congress are getting sworn in essentially none of the business that the house usually would take up, can take place. that means the house is in a holding pattern. and we saw some amusement on the behalf of a democrats at the situation that republicans find themselves in, but mostly notes of frustration from both sides of the i'll democrats and republicans lamenting the fact that this deal can't seem to get done. they said, this is not with the american people voted for an olla. that's

a message we heard echoed from president biden. he was asked about the situation on wednesday while and a trip to kentucky. and he said, this is embarrassing. how do you think this looks to the rest of the world? it's not a good look. so clearly, there is frustration here in washington over the situation. now let's talk about the hardliners sir in the party, former president donald trump appealed to them to support mc coffee. that didn't seem to help. what does that tell us about donald trump's influence? yeah, he's interesting all of that. we saw donald trump pretty early on wednesday. right on a social media platform, true social that he wanted republicans to close ranks behind kevin mccarthy. some of our viewers might remember that kevin mccarthy has been a staunch and loyal supporter of the former president. as you said, his words didn't seem to have an influence on that hard white faction of the party . and that might tell us that perhaps again, there is another sign that donald trump's influence on the republican party. uncertain lawmakers is waning,

even though he remains very popular among republican voters. i do want to say that on a whole, this also tells at the us that the republican party is facing some serious trouble . they wanted to start this new session of the house of representatives with momentum to hit the ground running essentially. and that is not what has happened. instead, they have showed signs of disunity, especially in an important year just ahead of the 2020 for a presidential election. so there are some open questions republicans are going to have to answer about how they can bring their party together and their house together. so me good to talk to a d w correspondence to me. so must kunda in washington dc on his look at so more stories making headlines around the world. israel's new government has unveiled a plan to overhaul the judicial system and weaken the powers of the supreme court. the proposed measures would mean israel's parliament could override some supreme court decisions with the simple majority. critics say the plan will up and israel system of checks and balances and undermine its democratic institutions. iranian
