12:02 am
one of the in got it's he couldn't keep it. you his house speaker kevin mccarthy was fired late on tuesday, punished for turning to the democrats to stop a budget shut down for becoming a government shut down. republicans accusing mccarthy of the trail at the 11th hour, but he did deliver on one key demand in a huge, yet temporary turnaround. the u. s. will send no money, no way to ukraine, unburied gulf from berlin. this is the day the can any circumstances allow america's support for ukraine to be interrupted? clearly somebody's been lied to. if we heard the president come out and say, there was a deal with the speaker and you frame speaker just stood up in front of all of us and said that there is no deal on you crate. it was ridiculously used as a political football. we spend more money telling people to slow down on highways
12:03 am
a year than this and entire of funding for ukraine. it's ludicrous, it's a small amount of money. i say this to all. if we give president polanski the tools, the ukrainians will finish the job value pricing. also coming up the war in ukraine, the number of wounded in debt continues to rise. its no wonder ukrainians, facing the draft are having some 2nd thoughts to this. i think that i would rather be a refugee than di will say, and there's no guarantee that the country will exist. often my desk limited to the hosp difficult bishop with the possible to our viewers watching on cbs in the united states. and to all of you around the world, welcome, we'd begin the day with a 1st and us history lead on tuesday, republican lawmakers in the us house of representatives voted to remove kevin
12:04 am
mccarthy, the speaker of the house, the republicans. they control the house, which means that they choose the house speaker, the 3rd person in line to the us president republicans had never fired a fellow republican house speaker until last night. a small group of right wing g o p. lawmakers force the vote and they appear to be forcing the hands of the entire parties had to hurt itself. and what about the democrats? they could have intervened, and they could have rescued kevin mccarthy. but they did not dissing or dysfunction, or perhaps a little bit of boats. we have more now from the us gap. just days after narrowly avoiding a government shut down, a rebellion amid the republican ranks as trust congress into chaos. 8 hard line republicans joined with democrats in voting out speaker of the house. kevin mccarthy ending a rocky tenure for the republican lawmaker. the office of speaker of the
12:05 am
house of the united states house of representatives is here by declared vacant right winger, mat gates a controversial fire brand from florida. lead charge to i was mccarthy. he said, the former speaker didn't do enough to curb government spending and made too many concessions to democrats. kevin mccarthy is a feature of this walk. he has risen to power by collecting special interest money and redistributing that money in exchange for favors. we are breaking the fever now and we should elect the speaker has better during the voting, several of mccarthy supporters warned that of vote against him was irresponsible. the house. kevin mccarthy think long and hard before you plunges into chaos because that's where we're headed. if we vacate speakership in an address after his
12:06 am
removal, mccarthy said he thought the vote was the product of a flawed political system. in today's world, if you're sitting in congress and you took a gamble to make sure government was still open and 8 people can throw you out of speaker. and the democrats who said they wanted to keep government open. i think you've got a real divide. i think you've got a real institutional problem. mccarthy also said he will not seek reelection. congress is at a standstill until a successor is elected. another government shut down deadline is moving next month . all right, well i want to pull the nail rachel reserve. she is a senior fellow for the atlantic council in washington regional. it's good to see you again. i mean, yeah. some heading events in the last 24 hours. the 1st time in us history that a house speaker was removed by his own party. how would you explain this to those of us who were watching from outside as well?
12:07 am
it's hard enough to try to explain this to those of us who are watching it from the inside. but i think what is important to note is that this is absolutely uncharted . territory, so where we are and what happens next is really tough to say, i think the message to really take away from all is all of this is if you're watching from the outside, is that the republican party is really in chaos right now. or we had hints of this earlier this year when it took 15 rounds for speaker mccarthy or former speaker mccarthy. we should say to finally when is speakership after giving concession after concession to the far right. uh, group uh, in the republican party. and we've seen the results of that time and time again, a small, but very loud and boisterous group of far right populist could have been able to hold the republican party and really congress hostage. we could have seen this coming. this is what happens when you cater to and shape your policies and rhetoric
12:08 am
around someone like donald trump. so the consequences of that reverberate far longer than just to ask for your presidency. i mean, i want to say that kevin mccarthy is now something like political road kill, but i'm not going to say that i'm gonna ask you and what does he, but what does he represent tonight? it really depends on who you're talking to. if you're a democrat, kevin mccarthy is someone who has contributed not only to the rise, but the staying power of donald trump and the populace. right that he represents. mccarthy was one of the 147 house republicans who voted to reject biden's election victory in january of 2021. and then the house minority leader. he privately criticized trump in the wake of the january 6th insurrection, backed off from calling for his resignation because of the yours from the republican party. but if you're also a far right member of congress, mccarthy represent someone who isn't far enough to the right. who's sides with the
12:09 am
democrats in order to avoid his scenario, where the government se default on his dev dot or sides with the dams to avoid a government shut down. so he doesn't have many friends in congress that he hasn't had many friends for quite some time. anyway, what about matt gates um, what, what does he represent tonight or well, i think mat gates and those that are of his elk could represent the future of the republican party if they don't get their house and order. i'm thinking of people who walk along side mat gates like lauren beaufort, from colorado, like margery taylor green. whoever merged in the year since donald trump victory, they represent the sort of new type of conservatism, a populist nationalist, anti lead strain of conservatism that really wants to block the status quell and push out the old guard. and that, as we've seen, the really good at tying things like international decisions, foreign policy,
12:10 am
2 issues related to domestic politics. they're really, really good at that. and so let's see where this goes. but it's not really looking great at the moment for the republican party and on capitol hill the, the democrats, we know they, they could have rescued mccarthy. they did. why not reach across the political while in, in an extreme situation like the one we saw last night, or why don't think the democrats spelt any reason to rescue kevin mccarthy? i think it's important to remember that kevin mccarthy has made wife extremely difficult for the democrats for years. just listen to some of the words that current. how's the democrats have said about kevin mccarthy? abigail span burger from virginia said that he was the most unprincipled person to ever hold the speakership that he's disdainful, that he lies about the process of governance. and minority leader hacking,
12:11 am
jeffries explains that mccarthy had brought this on himself, by catering to extremist in his party. pointing to the 15 rounds of votes that it took last january, 1 of the concessions he made to the far right republicans was agreeing to allow any one member to force a motion to vacate. at the same time, jeffrey's in mccarthy spoke over the weekend and he made it clear that if the democrats did vote for him, he wouldn't give them anything. so they really felt no reason to help him in a situation amazing. the us, how speaker we want to remind our viewers does not have to be a member of congress. and so donald trump for you as president trump, his name has been mentioned in this conversation. and here is what he had to say about this very idea. think of this as the the
12:12 am
so what do you make of this, rachel? um, any validity to a possible speaker? trump, as well. i think what's important to note, 1st of all, is that the speaker of the house is 3rd in line to the us presidency. so just putting that out there, but no, i really don't think that there's any real likelihood of donald trump becoming the next speaker of the house. even though trey knows a house republican from texas has nominated trump to be speaker. so there's a couple reasons for this. first, he's the g o p,
12:13 am
front runner in the upcoming us presidential election. so there's really no reason for him to focus his attention on being speaker instead. this is a time comes consuming job. it's not fun. trump wouldn't like it, so there's really no reason for him to focus on this. instead, a 2nd sort of more practical reason is that there's a rule in the house republican conference of the current, 118 contract congress. that clearly states that a member of the republican leadership has to step aside if he's indicted for a felony, for which the sentence is 2 or more years of imprisonment. donald trump currently has $91.00 criminal charges against him. so with that information what you will, i don't think it's likely. okay, right. so it was uh with the alignment council joining us tonight from washington. rachel, good to see you always excellent analysis. we appreciate your time tonight. thank you. thanks, brent. clearly somebody's been lied too. because we heard the president
12:14 am
come out and say, there was a deal with the speaker and you frame. and the speaker just stood up in front of all of us and said that there is no deal on you crate. the house democrats say there's a deal on ukraine, so we're gonna have to sort that out. we're going to sort out who's lying, because somebody's lying about whether or not as in this c r a negotiation. there was a secret side deal on ukraine funding. will say, as well, that was you as a congressman, that gates answering the question about the future us aid for ukraine. since the start of russia's invasion, the us has given ukraine $45000000000.00 in weapons and military equipment. and add to that, the 10s of billions to help finance ukraine's government, the total in us a tool who they would pull their heart a se, uh, give no money to crazy uh, lives ukraine up to booting. as i don't recognize the country,
12:15 am
the birds to what we say was to fall in love. i asked myself, don't these people understand that when they say the ukraine, they mean deal on ukraine being crucified. these people calling themselves christians basically mean for your brain to be left crucified by ross and for, for just one thing to be free because this is the 1st war in a while. this is mazda about something like to or is more than an oil or something else, a jump. all it takes. it's about one o twos and freedom. um, the other one uh, monitoring it for its killing, its the raping looting, conducting the conduct in general. so let me ask so quite frankly, it's a, it's incredible for me to see this. let me ask you, mr. shiver. what do you say to those republicans who say that they are,
12:16 am
they're not against aid or helping ukraine per se, but they are against delivering aid and not being able to control where it goes, how the money is being used. it sounds like us lawmakers, it sounds like a lot of them have a trust issue with your country, ukraine as well. it's a very strange because the america has the importance. it's a special and void of course. so the task is to control. oh, and the money you spend your greatest open ever thing to do. uh, american, you know, uh, auditors, there is not a single case of what your grand spending a visa weapons the that we are being provided for. first of all, it's about somehow oh, suspiciously at the st. louis, so the money is provided. so it's just very, very building for me. last week on this program. you know,
12:17 am
we reported of the arrival of us abrams tanks in ukraine. this week we've got the us government avoiding a shut down with a plan that includes no aid for ukraine. i mean, this seems to be what the kremlin reportedly wants to see happen more a narrative of, of dwindling unity between washington and see the year. see that narrative being developed. i see the rest uh desperately holding for this uh, narrative to be developed and using mates and using every single you know, sound bugs. the american congress provides with his narrative. that's for sure. but other than that, so we are. madison is thankful for the united states of you know, given us uh, uh, dental in. so i am hers uh ever him so no. because if it wasn't
12:18 am
to for that, then i would be that millions of people here in don't on what did that this whole child see me when people would be like a level. now, this is the reality. we are in mass, this thankful for that. i'm are you mr and bass with me ask, are you satisfied with what. busy isn't it zalinski and his administration are doing to, to nurture and to keep relations with the us healthy. i mean, if you had president zalinski is you are right now. what would you advise that he'd do 1st thing tomorrow? a us tricky question. someone who is in employ your premium government and must say, uh, well, uh, definitely, uh we are doing our best to and i think there is some, uh believes that we are some of our misappropriating something that has been providing for us. this someone just believes was he or she wants to believe adjust
12:19 am
to justify their desire, you know, to leave ukraine. um, you know, uh to be crucified by the beast and moscow. and quite frankly, i think they're doing whatever we can. we have an amazing investigator in washington. she is doing a great job. and so i think i, for, i hope the americans will see, uh, uh, we will see what i wanna ask you before we're in a time about the actual more itself what we're seeing on the battlefield. new statistics i read today, artillery rounds that are being fired in this war. russian forces have a $10.00 to $1.00 advantage over ukrainian forces. that's a huge difference, a huge advantage that the russians have. what happens then if us weapons shipments
12:20 am
to ukraine, stop or, or are reduced? this is a foreign minister, a large t quotes, a golda meir. i'm the questions you know, she was said when, when things were going very well too. for israel, she one safety for the don't have the weapons, we'll fight with spades. and so this is the move in because i don't know a single person. pl, privately or publicly. some poll says, you know what, let's see to this guide in the family, some more about people in our land. maybe she'll leave us alone. you don't have the solution. this though, has to be decide this now. and this has to be decided in favor of the country that sold freedom instead of slavery investment share. as always, we appreciate getting your insights and you taking the time to talk with us. thank you. thank you. russians invasion of ukraine. it began just
12:21 am
over one and a half years ago since then. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians have volunteered to defend their country. that said, ukraine is relying on conscription to fill the ranks some ukrainians are refusing to fight and they're looking for ways to leave the country dw marks. so on the reports tonight from ukraine's border with romania romania is just across the border from here. but most to create new men cannot cross over. at least not legally. martial law requires men of fighting age to stay in the country. for which documents are one way of leaving. sick forest and mountain passes are in the other. more than 15000 have been detained in ukraine, both trying to illegally cross into romania. these border guards are trying to stop them to nights. what do you mean by seal? are in charge of securing a 12 kilometers strip to enforce the law and save lives to the level. it
12:22 am
is a mazda area. you can get lost here. that's a decent book. that wild animals baz eating. maybe even run into a band of forest with less than 2 dozen bodies have been found in ukraine. southern border region since the beginning of russia's full scale invasion, we are told the roots used to be popular amongst cigarette smokers, but now it's mostly used by people trying to leave. loans. dodges richard cheese was marked as a afraid because of martial law. without this, they are afraid that we live, attain them, and immediately book them for find them and take them to the recruitment center with this order, if you think is a but i mean, come on where they will be processed and potentially sent to fight ukrainian soldiers this billboard, in the nearby city of tennessee says, you can do more than you think in the beginning of the war, hundreds of thousands joined the armed forces as volunteers, one and
12:23 am
a half years later, many of them are exhausted and wounded or dead. most of recruits are drafted despite the overwhelming public support for the ukraine and military. not everyone is willing to become part of it. men between $18.60 can be called up for military service. but there are a number of exemptions such as for fathers, have at least 3 children, essential workers and those taken care of a sick parents. and then there are medical exemptions, and this is how most people, gosh the draft. the thousands of men are believe to have left the country through bribing officials. criminal groups advertise their services on telegram. confirming a disability for example, can cost up to $3500.00 us dollars. this is only possible with the help of official assistance. in august, the heads of all regional military recruitment centers were dismissed as part of a larger move against corruption at the defense sector. she was at the symbol of the 3 count on say that it was total corruption. so in our table it,
12:24 am
these were all the isolated cases where we see that we have 0 tolerance is for cases of corruption or other line nation and seen for let's see, forces there's a human fact to talk to this thing. we try to respond to any problems, what the no more do you key for whatever. what some ukranian men do. question why they should serve and are determined to find ways to avoid being drafted. such as maxine or the 22 year old to, to our, to says he supports the military but he himself won't fight. so i think having an own country is much more valuable than being a refugee somewhere to not set up the price. they are asked to pay for it is a good to a desk this higher than the value of having a country in the house. i would rather be a refugee than di will say, and there's no guarantee that the country will exist. often my desk for me to. uh huh. the 1st with the, with the bus at the back at the border loading the seal. haven't found any traces
12:25 am
of illegal crossings yet. in august alone, the authorities prevented 247 crossings along the border. and lastly, everyone has their own opinion. as i felt myself, i know how it was there was a new comment. i do wish for anyone to be there because it is not easy because everyone has their own destiny and everyone the next their own decisions as he cannot judge them. he tells us that like the hundreds of thousands of ukrainians who are fighting the russians, they to have a duty and are committed to fulfill it. then before we go, we're going to take a look at these pictures from realization arrows showing the statue of christ, the redeemer bathed in pink. it's been done as part of breast cancer awareness month. dozens of women, breast cancer patients. and campaigners gathered at the foot of the iconic statute
