12:02 am
a whole they shut down because congress cannot agree on how much money should be spent, where and that includes border security and funding for ukraine. republicans say president biden is blind to a crisis of illegal migrants pouring into the country. why should we spend billions to defend ukraine? they ask when we can't even agree on what needs to be defended at whole. i'm bring golf and berlin. this is the day the if i could talk with the governors today, i would just ask them to imagine payday to know paycheck. but we're focusing on here in the center to try to keep the government open. try to continue to pay the people who are central for our security is no longer can the president ignore a problem? he created the killed americans. every single destroys. some of our greatest city
12:03 am
extreme is the congress more determined to shut down the government, burn the place down the people's business. we all american workers and we want to do our job is to congress this lock and us out of my job. also coming up the tensions between china in the philippines, beijing laying claim to territory in the south of china. see the reaction from manila that belongs to us. so what the philippines has done is nothing but a farce for its own amusement. the china will continue to safeguards its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights. which right now is right for to our viewers watching on tv as in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin today inside the us congress, which is once again the scene of a showdown, leading to a shut down or the clock is ticking this weekend on saturday at the stroke of
12:04 am
midnight. the us government will grind to a halt and attempt on friday to get a stop gap funding bill pass. it didn't make it. now. this is about more than lawmakers missing a deadline. this is about political dis, function. republicans willing to compromise against republic. republicans right wing republicans refusing to bend on any of that and this is also about numbers. a republican supported bill in the house of representatives would most likely not survive in a senate dominated by democrats and republicans want more funding to protect and control the us border with mexico. they accuse president biden and the democrats of ignoring wave after wave of migrants entering the country at the same time, republicans are pointing to the $100000000000.00 given to ukraine. since the russian invasion accusing the wine helps. i've given you crane a blank check to write and spend as it pleases. well tonight, it looks like no one will be writing any checks any time soon.
12:05 am
divisions between house republicans and democrats on spending costs, aid to ukraine and border protection, are hindering efforts to get even a temporary funding solution off the ground. and the country's most prominent republican is urging his colleagues to let the shutdown happen until congress approves new funding. the federal government won't be able to continue fulfilling various functions, but remember that the u. s. government is a nation's largest employer. over 2000000 federal thousands could be very upset from health. it's a little over a week since the president loading years, the landscape came to washington to rally more support for his country. and the immediate term asia ukraine remains protected even and the shut down. but that
12:06 am
spending on ukraine has become a sticking point in these negotiations. means the lensky may need to worry about future support. and that's a big concern, because you already see the republican congressmen, disputing how much money the us government is spending supporting ukraine's efforts in defending himself against the russian patients. the already questions being asked, and that'd be made part of the debate on the government shutdown and whether the republicans allow or the democrats deposit budget. so it's not just a direct hit from the government shut down to find spending, spending. but the question of your credit spending is it was the same whether or not we haven't government shut down and how long. but the good news is the us is no stranger to shut downs. and sooner or later, the result, the forces that one, the forces shut down, tend to be very adamant at the very beginning. but then as time goes on and the nation gets annoyed about what's going on,
12:07 am
they find that it's harder to maintain their fervor and then they'll eventually look for a compromise. i would sell our allies and partners. this is not something new. our political processes are not working very well, but what needs to be judged is what comes out the other end. but what exactly comes out on the other end and how long it's going to take to get there, remain the crucial open questions and to shut down. and it won't just be the american people for ukraine and us allies across the atlantic that will be waiting for answers. all right, let's close over now to washington, my colleague and our correspondent janelle, i'm allowing, she has been on this story for us today. janelle, it's the 11th hour already. is there any way that we're going to see any rescue of the budget before midnight saturday night as well. there is a little sign of that. there are nowhere near a deal. we solve
12:08 am
a republican house speaker, kevin mccarthy. mountaintop. what was arguably his best shot at getting a stop a gap bill through this is a bill that would have seen the government funded, at least until the end of next month. but it was voted down by all house democrats and 21 republicans. seeing that this was also a bill that had deep spending cuts in it and immigration restriction. so even if it had cleared the house, it would have been dead on arrival in a democratic controlled senate. now the senate for its part is trying to get its own stop gap bill through that would keep up the government spending at current levels until mid november. at least it would have provided a roughly $6000000000.00 in aid for ukraine and a similar amount in disaster release. but house republicans have already said that they would reject it. they want to see deeper spending cuts and less aid to ukraine
12:09 am
. so we have the situation where each chamber is rejecting the proposed solutions of the other chamber, depending on which majority of controls it. and that is making the prospect of a shut down ever likely or in your, on capital hill. when you are the, the speaker of the house or the leader, the senate, you're in charge of legislation moving it through the chamber. it's your decision whether or not a vote takes place on that house. and speaker, kevin mccarthy. he puts today's stop, get bill up for a vote. importantly, knowing that it would not pass how damaged is he to not as well. he wants to be seen as doing something to avert the shot down. but obviously the defeat of a stop gap bill was a terrible set back some or even calling. it's a new confidence votes in mccarthy. but let's not forget that his position has always been difficult. it took 50 and rounds of voting to get him the speakership.
12:10 am
the republicans have a tiny majority in the house, so there is a contingent of far right republicans that make his job particularly difficult. they've threatened to oust them from the speakership if he puts a deal with the democrats to get funding through. now. * now all of this saw what now the, there's already starting to be talk about who could replace something, mccarthy, in the event of an allister bar, tougher, better versus replacing him is not going to be easy. the thing that mccarthy really has to go is that he really, really wants the starbucks point to go down to those 15 around to vote. and he just have coming back. and anybody who would be in a position to replace him might not want the job as much perhaps because of all the challenges that i have already mentioned. clearly brian has we're seeing tonight. it's somewhat of a thankless job. yeah. a job that will let the country grind to a halt if the be janelle familiar with the washington. thank you to know, have a good weekend if you can't. but when join now,
12:11 am
by getting your crop joke, a member of the ukrainian parliament and a spokesperson for president, lot of his zalinski is service of the people party is contract. we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us to night you. i'm sure, so what you're inviting, the republican controlled house of representatives in washington voted today on a bill to keep the government going. that would have included no funding for ukraine. now that bill was rejected, but it was put up to about none the less. who do you trust on capital hill tonight as well, it's very hard to commence on the, in their politics of the united states. i think the congress of both houses will come up of finally at the end of the day or later was the decision for ukraine. of course, it's important to keep that supports the maximum support from both parties and both
12:12 am
houses that's in our interests. and that's basically what will the most last key said when he was in dc that we value because to pull the support from americans and the supports from both of the parties. and we see that these parts inside of the republicans that extremely against age of ukraine, they allowed, but this small and i personally, uh, had conversations uh, even earlier with a lot of republicans and the best deal from these good old party. and you know, when i was watching the debates of the republican candidate did you in the primaries? uh, i just assumed that, you know, the small detail uh, these debates were hold in the ronald reagan library and i just imagined what woods ronald reagan say about all the situation. i mean, the one,
12:13 am
the evil empire is trying to threaten the democratic was again, but you know, it's interesting. you, you mentioned the republican debate because it brought de santis, the governor of florida. he is one of those leading candidates. and when asked about funding for you, great, he said no more blank checks for ukraine. is that what washington has been doing for your country and giving you a blank check as we never had any of the blank uh. checks. uh, billing all the money. uh, all the h a special mutual aid are being traced very shortly. and now we have another inspector coming as charging to work uh in october as well. we'll have a person to can agents out on the investments and, and all the financial aid. so all of the money or me with your equipment i, you know, very in st. um, i would say hands and,
12:14 am
and uh we have the, um, uh these uh, connect to us uh, all of that but no minds keeping all over they needed, you know, information how it's being used. the, the united states, since the russian invasion began, has provided about a $100000000000.00 in direct aid and weapons to ukraine. ukraine is the 1st european country to top the list of us for an aide, since the marshall plan, after more, more to that is how dramatic the change has been. what do you think lawmakers should be saying to their voters when the voters say you've forgotten about our needs, our needs should come 1st. i mean, you're a politician. can you understand when the public can say our people should come 1st as well? a lot of these money i would say most of this money do come back to united states um uh, in the terms of the industry because uh these uh weapons, petra, its, uh, uh, tanks at rooms you know, the, the, um,
12:15 am
everything that will get the $155.00 because they these, uh, 8 is being produced on american factories and americans are working there and actually, uh, the industry is increasing as well as in germany basically, you know, it's uh, and i can not imagine that bad or advertisements all ukrainian of america and the weapons uh the hi maurice. um, uh, pay to it. other than be used in ukraine because um, now it's a practical use and uh, its been tested on the pachel killed. you can see the swan paused maybe to correct some mistakes, but to actually uh when cartridge uh, working over keys and intercepts in the ballistics. that trust us that net could never be intercepted. i can ever never imagine
12:16 am
a better ad for american what the industry discussion before we let you go. um, there is a possibility that donald trump could be elected to be the next president. he is certainly campaigning to do that. he has said that he were elected that the war in new cray would be over within 24 hours. do you believe in person to ask you asked about a week ago i spoke to donald trump. please show the magic recipe. how to aah and the war, but north to change the, you know, north to put the whole was into jeopardy. because the, if puts in wins and to, of the, you know, international law, it means nothing. then we'll have problems with other countries that have a dictator. so on there we that you're getting across to a member of the ukrainian parliament. this project. we appreciate you taking the time we noticed a difficult time, the busy time for unit and the people in your country. thank you. thank you. thank you for inviting me. my pleasure. all right, we went across the atlantic again and go over to megan malloy. she's the founder
12:17 am
and executive director of republican women for progress. but again, it's good to have you with this specially friday, right before the weekend, you were listening to what the ukrainian lawmaker was saying. let me get to just a quick thoughts from you about what you think ukrainians should be thinking about your party right now. uh honestly right now. nothing good. um, i think it's, it's, it's very challenging to see a publican party that can be so supportive of some words and so and supportive of others. and what they're forgetting is that they're catching so many innocent people and their political crosshairs for political points. um, i think, you know, if i were to give advice to some fun, i'm out of the, out of the industry of giving advice. but if i were to give advice to someone and ukraine that we're concerned about this. take a step back. listen to the debates, what is set on the debate stage is not going to probably come to fruition that is
12:18 am
kind of a lot of pop, pomp and circumstance. so don't be too alarmed, but really, really, you know, wait and see what comes down to the election. well, what's going to come out of this shut down? maybe that's the 1st question we should be worried about. um, is this shut it down and, and the, the economic harm put it that way. i mean, that it's going to do is, is that as much as a result of republican in fighting as opposition to the bodies and presidency a yeah, this shutdowns a mess. i was a federal employee in 2013, uh that shut down lasted about 17 days back then, you know, it kinda felt like a fun, rare occasion, but they're, they're becoming more and more frequent, new, lasting longer and impacting more folks. like you said, the economic harm, i think every week that the federal government is shut down, the us economy lose is something around $1000000000.00 just from museums like this, this, sonya national park, those sorts of public works being closed. i think this one is particularly tricky
12:19 am
because of the rock and a hard place that kevin mccarthy finds himself between. on the one hand, as you said, he's against the political damage just of the shut down itself. on the other hand, you know, he could theoretically avert the shut down, but he would have to do so by working with democrats and he might see, all right, he would lose his job at that point. but so that there's, i think, that's the point. the reason it's isn't it the, that's the point if i could make it, that's the point to the speaker of the house, is willing to let this either this, this spectacle take place. the government shuts down, but he's going to keep his job at the end of the day. i, it may be, i mean, as long as you engine, now we're talking about earlier, there's a, there's a small contingent, a small but big enough contingent to throw things one way or the other that have said, you know, they're, they're going to part of the, they are putting a boat that or move mccarthy from the speakership as early as next week. um, you know, obviously as with all of these things,
12:20 am
we don't know if it will actually move forward or if they're just using it and some of their negotiations on the spending bill. um, but i mean, you're starting your staff use words like inevitable. they're just trying to figure out when's the right time to do it. and there was this week, this republican debate here in europe. you know, people are scratching their heads and asking why now it seems so early, but it was also something to watch. donald trump was not there is donald trump, is he going to be the republican nominee next year? a s i, i've gotten out of business of predicting what donald trump is going to do or not do, but i think the republican debate is related to it. it was a side so to the circus that is washington dc right now. and honestly, it's playing 2nd fiddle to the importance of everything else going on. i think, you know, those of us that eat sleep and breathe this stuff all day every day. i didn't even watch it. i know very few people that good. yeah, i think mainly is it so in consequential like you said like is it's funny. you're
12:21 am
chris, the called donald trump, donald duck kind of. but what, what good is that doing for the party or the public discourse right now at the end of the day? like you said, it's all or even most of these candidates stay in the race to office on wednesday, domination period, end of story like it's, it's math. so at some point and then someone is going to have to do the very and probable thing that doesn't happen, and that's get over themselves and put forth whoever is the best option to compete against donald trump or just write him a one way ticket back to the general election before he let you go, i want to ask you about some sad news. i'm in california. senator dianne feinstein, she died today and she's a democrat, your republican, but maybe you can speak to how important she was as a role model for women in politics or yeah, i mean where to even start with with di fires,
12:22 am
we effectually color. she was an absolute trailblazer for women and politics. i mean, she was the 1st female mirror of san francisco. she went on to become sheriffs and intelligence and it rules ranking member of senate judiciary committees. and before all that stuff backed about 40 years, they were trying to get her to become the vice presidential candidate in 1984 and governor of california in 1990. so politics aside, i think she's a legend that will be missed. and beyond all of that, right now, chuck schumer and the democrats are really, really going to miss her because her death leaves them with a one vote margin in the senate when they're trying to get a whole lot done right now. so that makes me even more difficult. she is, she served a long time and that there is this question that's not only, you know, ask them about her, but also asked about the president, how long should probably children stay in office? um, when is when is owed to oh, you know,
12:23 am
it's always trying to find that happy medium. right. like you want someone that has experience, i think nancy pelosi is the best at what she does because she has so much incredible experience being on the hill. but at one point does that become too much experience and you're too old to really do it? you know, i'm not going to take a stand on term on it's or age limits, but at some point it's just got to be common sense. like if you're not able to, to go about your daily business without a whole lot of assistance. you probably shouldn't be voting on things that are going to be very detrimental or very useful to our country. you know, that's a big point and i think our generation, we don't even need to worry about that because people probably have to work into our eighty's. and by the way, things are looking right now, making the lloyd republican women for progress. megan, we appreciate you talking with us. thank you. with the high seeds of southeast asia are a busy place with the philippines in china moving around an area known as the
