>> the honorable kevin mccarthy of the state of california, having received a majority of the votes cast, is duly elected speaker of the house of representatives. [applause] >> hello and welcome.

i'm levy reiser in new york. a truly historic, chaotic, and tense night in washington, after four days and 15 rounds of voting, republican kevin mccarthy of california has been elected the next speaker of the house. it began at 10 pm eastern last night, with a vote that saw matt gaetz vote president instead of voting for mccarthy. that was a move kevin mccarthy seems surprised by, as it sunk the california congressman's latest attempts and made him lose that 14th round. tempers then spilled over at another republican congressman, mike rogers of alabama, appeared to lunch at gaetz, and a number member pulled rodgers back. it was then the gop moved to adjourn in order to try to come back monday to do it all over again, but the very last second, there appeared to be a deal reached between gaetz and mccarthy, and a 15th round began. finally, kevin mccarthy won the elusive speakership. >> let me close with this.

i may not know all of you, some of you are new, what i hope one thing is clear after this week. i never give up. >> throwing me right now is congressional correspondent julie tsirkin. julie, what happened with matt gaetz and these holdouts to finally change their minds? >> well, remember, voting here takes place alphabetically. it was actually laurin boebert who went before gaetz, and my sources told me she actually was supposed to vote yes, then paving the way for just a few of them to vote presents. just, securing mccarthy the speakership with that move. but with her voting present that first time around, that kind of is where things started to get tricky. it was a little bit confusing. leadership really thought they had it down, that one vote, then, they went back in that dramatic adjournment non-adjournment to finally all six of the holdouts voting present. this was a strategy they had agreed upon, both leadership

earlier on in the day, matt gaetz, lauren boebert were on fox news just for that ten a.m. vote began, really not giving much away in terms of how they will vote. they wanted to keep it a surprise. also, that dramatic phone call, the picture of marjorie taylor greene on the phone with donald trump, the former president, handing into some of those holdouts, including rosendale from montana. so, this really came down to the wire. it was an all out negotiation. i actually spoke to mats earlier in the day when i started to kind of figure out things were shaking loose here. he didn't tell me anymore, that he was never kevin. he said the things they were able to negotiate as part of this rules package. they will take up on monday, make their hands stronger here, and make the conservatives hands stronger here, most importantly. take a listen to kevin mccarthy talking a little bit about that when he won. >> from the committee rooms to this floor, we commit to pursue the truth passionately. and embrace debate. no more one-sided inquiries.

competing ideas will be put to the test in public, so that the best ideas of when. that is like one of our very first hearings will be held on the southern border. >> wendy mccarthy speakership may be put to the test altogether when he was leaving this building he, said 1000 percent chance that he remains with the speakers gavel for the next two years, but as part of this rules package that he negotiated, these concessions he gave to these hard-liners in the house freedom caucus is a motion to vacate by one vote. that essentially means any one member of congress could essentially call for a vote of no confidence against mccarthy at any points, and if last night was any indication of how unpredictable they are willing to be, we are in for a ride. >> what can you tell us about that striking moment, those images that you saw of mike rogers essentially being held back? what do we know about what was

going on at that time, what was heard on the floor between the two? you had mentioned boebert and gaetz on hamadi before that 10 pm vote, and gaetz said there's not anything more we can ask for. they've either was something more that was asked for, that he asked for. >> yeah, we had sources telling us that he actually wanted an additional subcommittee chairmanship concerning the military. we know that is something mccarthy did not give into. my sources told me that is not exactly the only reason why i gaetz voted present, and all of that happens. it was an unspoken agreement, like i mentioned, with boebert and some of these other members. but your right. he said there is nothing more we can ask for. that is why those tensions started to boil over. i was in the speakers lobby, which was essentially where the members go out after they have cast their ballots, and i saw gaetz leaves the floor just before his name was supposed to be called. seemingly, intentionally wanting to miss it to come back at the end and see how the rest of his colleagues voted. we know mccarthy ended up not

holding on that one promise to him in terms of the subcommittee chairs, but we know other people did get those subcommittee chairman ships, including thomas massie, who will chair a subcommittee observing the fbi and freedom of speech. these are a lot of concessions that mccarthy did end up making to these members, rodgers on the floor they're being held back, launching at gaetz, excuse, me and it was really a tense moment. i had democrats on the floor sending me pictures of this scrum from their view, because there are no rules on the floor, and videos and pictures are allowed. democrats were certainly taking full advantage of that on that side of the aisle. >> a remarkable night and week. julie tsirkin, thank you so much. joining us, former republican representative carlos karbala of florida. host antonio of our body politic, and johnson allen, senior national reporter for nbc news, also the author of lucky, how joe biden barely won the presidency. jonathan, kevin mccarthy got what he wanted. did he? did he come out bruce at all? did any of his conference

members, we just saw that scuffle, there that's not necessarily the image of unity you want to portray. >> yes, be careful what you wish for, lindsay. kevin mccarthy gave away the -- in order to become speaker of the house. the way you could tell just how weak he is in that position to start off, they didn't have the votes last night to pass a rules package, basically, the underlying rules for the house for the next two years. that is usually done immediately after the speaker is elected. now, they are going to suspend work until monday, come, back and try to do that. that rules package itself containing so many items that are going to make it difficult for kevin mccarthy to get majorities on anything that he will spend his speakership as a slave to a variety of forces, including the math gaetz and lauren boebert of the world, including former president trump, who keep race last night for inspiring some of the members to vote for him, and you know, what mccarthy will have to do now is try to legislate not only the things

republicans wanted to, but the things they don't want to do, like raise the debt ceiling to ensure the credit of the united states, and to spend money to keep the government operating next september. kevin mccarthy has got his work cut out for him. he is going to be answering to a lot of answers. >> just yesterday, democratic representative jim mcgovern had this to say about the holdouts all the straw that was unfolding. quote, the reason these people want to be on the rules committee if they want to screw things up for mccarthy. they want to micromanage everything he brings to the floor. he thinks this is bad, what he's going through right now? he ain't seen nothing yet based on what he's giving away. congressman, do you agree? >> well, look. certainly, what we have seen over the last week does foreshadow what is likely to happen in this congress. but for now, mainstream republicans, that 200 that stuck with mccarthy, believe that they actually have the upper hand, that these holdouts tried to take down mccarthy. they tried to get a more

conservative speaker, a speaker that is more aligned with their views, and they failed to do that. they do think this is an important step, an important victory for them, and they do understand,, though that they're going to be tough votes and difficult, top -- ahead of republicans. i remind people, the motion to vacate the chair and the fact of the one member can file it, that is what drove john boehner out of congress. we can expect for some of these congressman through you see sexes again, and the leadership will you get to the test again. >> let's talk about the trump effect. take a listen to what kevin mccarthy had to say. >> i do want to especially thank president trump. i don't think anybody said that his influence. he was with me from the beginning, somebody wrote the town of what he was there, and he was all in. he would call me, and he would

call others. >> while he was publicly saying, we will see what happens, there was also this moment here. representative marjorie taylor greene holding her phone out to an anti mccarthy member. she tweeted the photo. it appears that donald trump was on the line. what kind of influence do you think trump exerted here in this fight? >> i think, first of all, former president donald trump is still the ideological leader of the party. he is not in office and he certainly not in the house of representatives, and that means the profiteering is going to be very messy for the speaker of the house. you know, he is going to have to basically be owned by the former president, and that is dangerous. i mean, that is the only way i could put it. on the radio show i host, our body politic, we did an interview with the bestselling

author of, barbara walter, of how civil wars start. in it, she talks about how president trump is what she calls and ethnic entrepreneur who whips up ethnic frenzy in order to gain votes and divides the country. i am worried that speaker mccarthy will become an ethnic entrepreneur, at the urging of the former president. >> former congressman, before we go, do you agree with that concern? >> i don't think so. i think it's clear there's a lot of evidence at this point that donald trump's influence in the country, and specifically over the republican party, is on the decline. a lot of republicans are now distancing themselves from him, and to be fair, when trump did start pressuring these members, the 20 holdouts, that didn't really move them. they were focused on their own goals, on their own objectives, the changes they wanted to make to the rules. that's what drove their behavior, not the former presidents influence. now certainly, the fact that

speaker mccarthy went out of his way to think donald trump shows that trump is still a powerful figure, someone mccarthy has to worry about, but certainly, i think the trend is in the opposite direction, that trump is a figure that is smaller by the day, and especially his other republicans to jump into the presidential race like ron desantis, kristi noem, nikki haley, and others. i think we will continue to see trump's influence on the decline. >> all, right former congressman, carlos curbelo, farai chideya, and john allen. all of you, lucky, for us are going to return in our next hour. we're going to continue our coverage, by the way, by the latest on capitol hill. keep it here. coming up, bombshell claims about the royals from prince harry in his new book. we are going to get to that later. but first, marking the second anniversary of january six. we'll have a special report on that, next. at, next my asthma felt anything but normal. a blood test helped show my asthma is driven by eosinophils, which nucala helps reduce. nucala is a once-monthly add-on injection for severe eosinophilic asthma. nucala is not for sudden breathing problems.

since rioters stormed the united states capitol in an

attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election. president biden marked the occasion by bestowing the nation's second highest civilian honor, the presidential citizens medal, to 12 state officials, police officers, and election workers who stood up for democracy. meanwhile, congressman kevin mccarthy was cutting deals with election deniers in his own party, ultimately securing his bid for speaker of the house overnight, by giving major concessions to extremists within the gop. here's nbc's peter alexander with more on friday's emotional tributes and the latest on the doj's january six investigation. >> on the steps of the capital, a poignant remembrance. house democrats and one republican sharing 140 seconds of silence. one second for each officer injured during the attack two years ago. those haunting images still seared into america's memory. >> on this day, two years, ago our democracy held because we the people, as the constitution

presidents upcoming trip to the border? >> yeah, lindsey. well, this trip by president biden to el paso is coming at a very critical moment for not just the presidents, but his whole administration. he will really be visiting what has become the epicenter of this crisis with el paso, declaring a state of emergency earlier this week. this visit will also come just weeks after the supreme court decided to extend title 42, despite pushes by the biden administration to not lift that. it is also coming just days before president biden heads to mexico city for the north american leaders summit, where undoubtedly, the topic of immigration and migration will come up with the mexican president as the u.s. leans on and still pence on mexican more in these next few weeks and months to be able to provide protection for these migrants, who will now be sent back over the border, especially in light of these new policies that were announced by president biden earlier this week. this is biden's first trip to the border since he became president. this comes after relentless

criticism, really for months and years now, from republicans, even some district area democrats, who say biden has not done enough to address this ongoing crisis. president biden, for his, part says republicans haven't been willing to meet him in the middle on getting any legislation passed to address this crisis. this trip will have the potential to possibly plant seeds for change, especially as he enters these last few years of his first term in office. >> can you give us a little more detail about potential seeds of change here, the changes in this immigration policy biden laid out? >> yes, quite a few changes announced earlier this week. president biden announcing this new immigration policy will bolster title 42 to allow for up to 30,000 migrants a month from cuba, haiti, and nicaragua to go back across the border if they don't first apply for u.s. asylum from the wreck from their home countries and countries they have traveled through on their way to the u.s.. the administration will also

accept up to 30,000 migrants a month from cuba, haiti, nicaragua, and venezuela, to apply to work in the u.s. for two years if they have a u.s. based sponsor. all of this really trying to send the message by the biden administration that you can't just cross over the border and expect and asylum process and the more. to be able to have that happen, that needs rules. they have to be followed,. lindsey >> allie raffa, thank you so much. joining me now to continue this conversation, christopher alex, nbc political analyst and former senior adviser for the biden campaign. four democratic senators wrote in a joint statement they were disappointed by this expansion. it will actually increase border crossings overtime, and further enrich human smuggling networks. what do you think of the new plan, and also, the criticism it's getting? >> good morning. it's great to be with you. i understand the criticism from our senators and democratic members in congress, because the other side isn't willing to

come to the table and get to work. ultimately, the president cannot do this alone. the administration cannot do this alone. we're seeing these policies tight up in the supreme court. we're seeing republican governors across the board continuously thwart efforts to address this problem, and so the controversy and the criticism, i understand. but it really boils down to congress having to act and get some of this done. i'm from el paso. this is a city that has been at the epicenter of this immigration fight for a long time. remember, this is the 50 for donald trump i introduced the family separation policy, which was incredibly cruel, ripping babies from the arms of their mothers. it's also the city where donald trump gave a speech and talked about the hispanic invasion, words that were echoed by a mass murderer who drove ten hours to el paso to commit one of the worst hate crimes in modern history in 2023, of immigrants.

this has been at the center of this, these horrific images of migrants at the border and the president has to do something about that. he is, and i think the policy it's exactly what needs to happen right now, short of congress acting. >> you mentioned you are from el paso. i lived and worked there as well. it was, when i lift, there not as bad as it was. this week, arctic blasts coincided with a sharp rise in border process. el paso shelters were overwhelmed. we're seeing these images on our screen right now. some of the people were sleeping in the streets. what is driving this extreme influx here, and what does the president need to accomplish on this visit? >> that's a great question. it breaks your heart to see these images. your right. it was very cold in el paso. this is the high desert, as you. now it's up in the mountains. one of the coolest things, beyond what trump had done, ripping families apart, was greg abbott is taking these port migrants, many running

from their lives, putting them on a bus and sending them to washington, d.c., where it was even colder, and dropping them off in front of the vice presidents residence, where it was 18 degrees. that should disqualify him and other republicans who want to use migrants for political stunts. at the same time, something needs to be done. el paso is under a lot of stress. it's not a very welcome city, it's not us -- it's a safe city, but it's not a -- software portrait. where the president needs to do, is he's walking a tight rope. but we'll have great face that he will do this tomorrow. he is really, symbolically address the challenge of the border, address the challenges of el paso, and with the policy, rush resources to the border to support el paso and other communities like that under a lot of pressure with this increase in migration. >> i really appreciate your time and speaking with us thank you. decembers brand-new job report could be seeing encouraging data to the federal reserve. the numbers to wage growth cooling down, even as payrolls

jumped by 223,000 new jobs. some economists think it could be a strong indication inflation may finally be weakening in the new year. millions of cash strapped americans. -- brian chung breaks it all down. >> well a lot of economic news, but the most notable one coming on friday morning but we got data on how the jobs market looked in america in the month of december. the overall picture? we added 223,000 jobs in that month. it's a bit slower than 256 that we had added in the month of november, but interesting to note that the unemployment rate fell from 3.7% in december to 3.5%. which by the way, match is a low that we have not seen since 1969. so it's been quite some time, the labor market is still looking. strong you can see the picture of the unemployment rate from this chart, falling from 4% earlier last year. now where do we see the job gains in that mud? we saw specifically in leisure and hospitality, bars and

restaurants adding about 67,000 jobs in the month. but there are some sectors that saw contraction, when you look at professional business services, this is going to by the way include some of those big tech jobs that we heard layoffs from from the past few months, actually losing about 6000 jobs. if human services, very interesting, these are headhunters, and also those that provide temporary help for a lot of these businesses, they actually contracted by about 40,000 in the month maybe that's a leading indicator for less appetite for jobs in future months to come, we will have to see. now, the overall picture though, the concern remains inflation, and we did get a glimpse of that from this picture. average hourly earnings, we saw on december wages increased by four point 647 year over year, that's lower than the 4.8% that we saw in november. but nonetheless, interesting to see that maybe this number could go, out because the number of, states 27 in d.c. increasing the minimum wage in the year of 2023. maybe that number goes up. overall inflation, we'll have to get another read on thursday morning, we'll continue to

watch all those economic developments as they come in. back to you. >> all right brian chung, thanks to that report. >> coming up buffalo bills player damar hamlin is awaken speaking, after suffering a horrific scare on the field last week. we'll bring you the latest on his condition after the break. later the disturbing report against kids and edibles, parents you won't want to miss this. to miss this

next on behind the series... that run with the champ was magical. i mean the tender chicken, the peppercorn ranch... i love my rings but i'll cherish that lunch... forever. the subway series. the greatest menu of all time. >> he is able to emerge and

follow commands, and even asked who had won the game. when he asked did we win, the answer was yes, yeah damar you won, you won the game of life. >> buffalo bills safety damar hamlin continues to show remarkable progress. after suffering cardiac arrest on the field on monday night's game against the cincinnati bangles. doctors say he is now breathing on his own in talking to his family, even facetime with his teammates yesterday. >> the thing that makes me laugh is he did this to the guys, you know right away. he flexed, he flexed, he flexed on them i guess. he's just got some staple things that they know him for, and that he does, he made the heart symbol probably more than anything. and he gave a thumbs up so. and then, somewhere in the midst of that, and it was a little bit hard to hear, but as you can imagine, he said, he

said i love you boys. >> nbc's kathy heart gets with me now outside of his unit -- so cathy what is the latest about how drummer hamlin is doing? >> hey lindsey, good morning to you. i'm happy to deliver some good news when it comes to damar hamlin condition in the past 24 hours we've learned that he is off his breathing tube, doctors were able to remove it so he's able to breathe on his own. so he's talking, talking to family and friends and physicians. he played that incredible, uplifting soundbite from the bills coach, he was able to sign on via face time to a surprise team meeting. as you can imagine, his teammates were just elated to get that update from him personally. we heard that he was able to flex also made a sign with his hands, kind of in a heart sign. and he also said love you guys. so that is definitely some promising updates, some uplifting news, news that we've been kind of waiting for.

but lindsey, there's still so many questions about his ongoing recovery. because we still don't know when he might be released from the hospital, exactly what caused that cardiac arrest monday evening. >> kathy park think you so much, i appreciate that. >> national sports -- at georgia state university, also joining me is dr. bernard ashby, vascular cardiologist, and founder of comprehensive vascular care. so dr. ashby, given what we've heard here, what we know so far, what is your reaction to damar hamlin condition improving so quickly, and so well? >> well good morning. and him are strong, right? i mean, it makes so much sense, i mean this gentleman is an elite athlete, so when you saw this young man go down, it was definitely in cardiac arrest. and the team that took care of him did a good job, by the way,

i mean at 8:24 pm he went down, and they immediately responded, they were with him doing cpr in the proximity within ten seconds. i mean, you can't ask for a better response time than that. and what you saw with him, was that he didn't have any evidence of a brain injury. because it's not only bring someone back to, life meaning to restart their heart, but it's also preventing any damage to the organs, but mainly the brain. because they did affective cpr, and shocked him early on, he has this wonderful outcome, and you can see that right now. it's a pretty amazing testimony to their response. what i alluded to earlier, with him being an elite athlete, is that his capacity is much higher. when you're younger, you're healthy, you're gonna probably have a better outcome with cardiac arrest and someone who has poor health. so is testament to taking care

of yourself, because you never know what happens. >> let's listen to quarterback josh allen's talking about the team's process during a press conference yesterday. >> i think putting that helmet back on today was a really good thing for our team, and to put on that process. but i belie to you if i didn't say, you know some people are gonna be changed forever, after being on the field. and witnessing that. >> terrence, talk to me a little bit about, that this is a subject that you cover well, and first of, all the emotional distress of seeing hamlin's collapse, how that mentally impacts the team. obviously not with his prognosis being so positive, that's the turn, but still as you mentioned, there's been some damage done to everybody. >> you know what lindsey, they can turn this tragedy into a positive. i wanna talk about the buffalo bills, what i mean by, that this guy is the 21st century lazarus. actually better. lazarus died, once came back to

life. this guide actually die twice, and came back to life, okay? if you think about it from a sports standpoint, the 1998 new york yankees, and one of their star players, jarrell strawberry, right before the playoffs had colon cancer. he was diagnosed with, that had major surgery, and the yankees use that as part of their rallying cry, to go on to win the world series. they probably would've won anyway, because they're the best team in baseball. but the thing about the buffalo bills, this is a very good team, and if not an excellent team. they're already dedicating this season to dim our. this is coming sunday, they're all wearing his number three, they've got these various ceremony and what have you, this is like general store times three or four, on the positive. >> and doctor that said here, just a few days ago we were, we were so worried, and still are to a certain extent about how dumb are hamlin is doing, what his progress will be, now we're potentially talking about the, fact do you think he'll ever play again?

what do you think the next steps are in his recovery, doctor? >> so lindsay, that's a great question. i'm gonna ask this many times. you know, the question is why did he go into cardiac arrest? why did his heart stop? cardiac means heart, arrest mean stop. the most common causes of cardiac arrest, really an older folks's heart attacks or blocked artery. but in his circumstance he's a healthy athlete, and he went down right after the impact the chest. so i early on thought that he had -- but in medicine, you have a broad diagnosis and you want to find out the potential causes of his heart. that's what we're doing right now at the university of cincinnati, they're screening him, doing echoes, doing multiple tests to determine if he has any evidence of underlying predisposition to cardiac arrest. assuming he doesn't, assuming that this is just commotion cortes, which is basically a freak accident, there's really no higher risk for him compared

to other athletes. but you know, if i was his physician, i would probably tell him not to play to be honest. but i would probably say that for any nfl player given the brutality of the game. these players have both short term and long term consequences that affect their life, i think is important that we all realize that, that these players are put in there by their livelihoods, and really long term health on the line. the vast majority of them have a long term chronic medical illnesses. >> real quick doctor, of so sorry to interrupt, you but i want to get terrence in on this really quickly, just before we go. terrence what do you think we'll see in terms of damar hemlines future. >> you gotta say that it's over. there's no way in the world they can get back out there, given everything that's involved, i don't think anybody should think about that right now. right now he's thinking about being the healthiest guy that he can be as far as just a human being. that football thing is way out of the question at this point, if not forever. >> all right, terrence, more and dr. bernard ashby, thank you so much for your time, both

parents may want to hear this next one. a new study finds a concerning spike in the number of reports of young children accidentally eating marijuana edibles. according to the journal pediatrics from 2017, to 2020, one calls to poison control center, is about kids five and under eating out of those biden steak jumped more than 1300 percent. not at the children died but nearly a quarter were hospitalized. joining me right now is dr. antonia nominate, right now assistant professor of emergency professor toxicology at rush university medical center. and a coauthor of that study. so doctor, i hope i got your last name, right please correct me if not. >> it's very close, thank you. >> tell me about why this is happening. >> so the reason that this is happening is because, for the most part, it's just that these edibles are more prevalent in homes, more states have legalized cannabis products in recent years, and so kids just have more opportunities to get exposed to them. what we found in terms of the

rate of increase, we were surprised, we knew that they were increasing, but happening in spite of the fact that there have been new safeguards in terms of packaging in states like california, recent laws in illinois as well. in spite of, that we're still seeing very dramatic increases and the exposures. >> doctor nominate, if a child does adjusted edible, what should you do? >> well if you know they've ingested and out of, all you should definitely call the poison control center. if the symptoms are mild, maybe they only took one, by it's possible that they could be observed at home safely, the poison center is able to check in on patients while being observed at home, but if there's any significant symptoms, any difficulty breathing, seizure activity, they're not responding to, you definitely need to take them to the emergency room. >> how does exposure to edibles affect children? are there any long term effects? >> as far as we know, from a single acute exposures, which are all the types included in our study, there's no long term effects. nobody should can expect there

should be long term, effects that we don't have the data to discern that in our study, we didn't look at that. that's something that i just can't say definitively. yes, the main santos that we see our neurological effects. so they tend to have very severe cns depression, which means they're difficult to wake up, they're not able to speak normally, walk normally, often they have g.i. affects like vomiting, nausea, confusion, as well and that doesn't mix well. so sometimes if they're severe son villains you can wake the patient up, and they're vomiting, sometimes they may need respiratory support, like intubation. also author seizures those, their types, the worst types of effects that we see. mostly exposures are much more wild than that >> and we have a few more seconds left with you dr. nemanich. what tips you have prepared to keep their kids out of this? >> yeah so the best things to do our to make sure your children don't see you using

these edibles, they look very enticing, they look like regular candy, so make sure that you put them away immediately after use. keep them in a locked place, children are curious, and will also climbing get into container. so unless they're locked, and kept well out of sight, there's always a possibility that they can seek it out because they look so tasty. >> good advice doctor dr. nemanich, thank you so much for your time. >> thank. you >> prince harry's new memoir spare is set to come out this tuesday, some were able to get their hands on the spanish version early, including nbc news, which translated experts such as details of a physical altercation between harry and his brother prince william. and in an interview set to air on monday, he sat down with abc's michael strahan, and talked about what his, mother the late princess diana, would've thought about this growing divide between the brothers. >> how would your mom feel about your relationship with your brother now? >> i think she would be, i think she would be sad. i think should be looking at it
