byron donalds wants to be donald trump's vice presidential pick.he slide into the speakers job, that's a win-win for him. he's unqualified for the jobs he's currently seeking. he would be disastrous, i believe, for the country should he become speaker or the vice presidential pick. >> you know, if herschel walker didn't exist, i would say get out of here, this can't be happening. they tried to make herschel walker a senator. i don't think the standards are super high. david jolly. >> i keep thinking about the old southern preacher who used to say same song, different verse, a little louder, a little worse. that's what we're living through with republicans. >> is carrot top not available inhe doesn't want to be speaker? david jolly, thank you very much. no offense to carrot top. he's probably an excellent speaker. >> coming up, as protests against the israel/hamas violence spread across the u.s. and the world, some are using the conflict to spread hate. leading to increased violence and hate speech right here at home. aimed at both muslim and jewish

job rally jumping. >> it's incredible to see aoc blaming the lack of experience on why byron donaldst be speaker, he and her happening congress is the same amount of time i suspect she's projecting her own lack of experience in all of her time. staying with byron donalds he someone who is familiar to audiences he seems to want to take the mantle of leadership, what is appetite for someone like that of a younger generation that were used to. our members of congress concerned about his age or do they see him as a rising up-and-coming star. >> byron donalds there's no question byron donalds made a splash in the house and is not afraid to say what he thinks that is a good thing but as i mentioned to maria a little earlier we have eight candidates and we never should've gotten rid of kevin mccarthy, we had steve scalise sitting in the wings and we disposed of him as well i think that was unfortunate as well as jim jordan we went down the line of experience members and now everybody up there from pete sessions from texas are fairly new relatively new since the 2000 wave election. we have t

maria: i also heard the name byron donalds as well, is that a factor?ing names pop up, because the boat is next week there is going to be a lot of names that pop up between now and then to really see where the party can coalesce, who they can coalesce behind. maria: thank you very much we will be following that. hillary vaughn let's get some commentary. lee, your thoughts. >> it's pretty unbelievable all of this happened is a big problem for republicans who promised to be the party of law and order and the republican party seems to be the party of chaos look at what's happening with donald trump and here it's hard to know where stability lies and i think in this moment this could've been a real moment for republicans to be taking a victory lap and republicans could've done a lot of things besides having this fight. it makes the party look weak when you can have eight people basically overturned. the irony of all of this, matt gaetz as part of this that mccarthy made deals with democrats in order to settle and keep the government open. these eight made a

followed breesentative mike johnson, and byron donalds. so this has been the three top vote getters. after that rep kevin hern of oklahoma. we are seeing a khruftering at the -- khr*usering of the -- includessering of the top contenders. how those votes gets distributed as more and more members are eliminated. and whether or not people, i guess, congressman emmer, can get to a majority kphreurbl or if this goes -- sphreurbgsly or if it -- expeditiously or goes down to the wire. host: if a candidate does emerge, what is expected to play out for the remainder of the day? guest: i think as with everything the last couple weeks, things are very much fluid. and in changing my the moment. i think it's entirely possible we can see a floor vote. one certainly has not been forecast. i think we'll have to see how the mat plays out. this is something where congressman emmer is able to convincingly get a majority that may bolster the chances of folks having a floor vote today. i think it's going to go down to the mass and whether or not we hear any si

same thing happened on a debt delaware. >> brian: what do you say to byron donalds? er mccarthy: byron worked hard trying to get that continuing education bill passed. i understand he is set about that. it has to have a higher number. if you watch, people say more democrats voted for it. you have to have 290 to pas the bill. democrats first move to adjournment and did a magic minute, i had a democrat pull the fire alarm to make sure we couldn't get the bill because they wanted schumer's bill. it was a gamble to pull that bill up, but best option we had at that moment, i didn't know if democrats would vote for it, i had to stair them down and dare them. sometimes you have to take a risk. if people want to vacate because i stood with men and women in the military and those on the border, that is well. i would argue back, if those people want to vacate, why did you vote against the conservative cr? >> brian: what will be different in the next six week? >> speaker mccarthy: we passed 70% of discretionary speending. we have to get border security. >> steve: mr. speaker, we

byron donalds is second. byron donalds, florida congressman, big trump supporter, it's not served a whole term in congress yet. mike johnson, who the times refers to is the most important architect of the resistance to electoral certification, electoral college certification in the house. what do you make of these two, shall we call them, front-runners of the moment? charlie? >> we are deep into this doom loop of crazy and absurdity. the fact that we are now down to plan e or plan f, we're talking about the batch been creatures like this, is an indication of what lisa just mentioned. it's in complete disarray, complete chaos. there is no idea right now that is too crazy to be vaguely plausible, because they basically burned through all of the non crazy options, including some of the crazy crazy options. so the whole notion of a unity ticket between kevin mccarthy and jim jordan, and jim jordan would be what, the assistant to the speaker, the assistant speaker, a job that does not actually exist. it shows how

we heard byron donald of florida just a little while ago talking about a potential monday vote and going home for the weekend. then we saw patty in sterling virginia, independent line. last chance for patty. randall, nashville, tennessee, democrat. whoop. i'm not getting any call. i can't hear the calls up here. if somebody could check that. there we go. all right. and so we are having a tiny bit of trouble but will continue to. blumenauer is a democrat from oregon and he talked about the idea of a coalition government. [indiscernible] mr. blumenauer: the republicans will have to work with democrats and put together a bipartisan effort. it is going to be very similar to the agreement they all have in the spring, 149 of them voted for it along with the president of the senate. and that's ultimately what we are going to be after spinning our wheels for two weeks or three or four. but that's where we are going to be. [indiscernible question] mr. blumenauer: they can't understand it. but what can i say. it's pretty clear, it's not our fault. republicans can't agree with themeses and ultimate

byron donalds, mike johnson, kevin hern. caller: there should be a litmus test to help out one way or the other and that test is no one who voted to dessert file the 2020 election should be anywhere near the speaker's house. they are trying to ensure that we have an autocracy instead of democracy. i have no problem with democrats working across the aisle or the republicans working across the aisle. but those who dessert filed, they are antidemocratic and violated their oath by voting against who won a free and fair election. and that's my opinion. host: new york is where tina is joining us on our independent line. caller: i pride myself on listening to both sides. when this kevin mccarthy back tracking on how he felt about the 2020 election and everything goes back to this. the speaker issue is just one of them. the republicans need to take back their party and stop being afraid of whatever they are afraid of and start serving the american people. we are watching. they sit up there we are trying to work for you and point fin

byron donalds didn't say he's opposed to what they're doing now, he said it is premature.hy survives this, the next 45 days will be hell for him again. he was able to getelected and then got a bit of a honeymoon, he was able to build up political capital. he'll be back in it, into this funding fight, over the next 45 days and reality is these same folks set a standard that mccarthy is never going to be able to meet. if he survives here, he has to know 45 days from now, they're coming right back at him. so it is probably a pretty daunting thing to look at if you're him. you survive today, but you're not in the clear at all for the long-term. >> yeah, i think gaetz said, you know, go ahead, let the democrats bail him out. he's not mine, he's yours. i want to go to ali vitali. she's been able to make her way into a hallway where people are going back and forth. oh, you're outside where they're going in and out. you move so fast, ali vitali, you're like the wind. i want to go back to these five. and i'll name them again, gaetz, crane, biggs, good, burchett. the question is wha

it's good to be with you, great to hear my good friend byron donalds' remarks, i voted for byron donalds continued resolution to secure the border and, spending 8 percent. i thought it was an outstanding proposal for a stopgap spending measure, including chaining something you haven't talked about which is that tooth is a spending is mandatory spending. and mr. donald's' resolution ha put together with his group als had a commission to reform mandatory spending programs something that is a much more big fiscal problem for our country. so look, i supported that and i failed because all the democrat democratic -- voted against it plus 21 republicans. dick and perkins tell us they wouldn't vote for any continuin resolution period. they prefer the government essentially the shut down while we continued the appropriations bills. i think that is the wrong approach. we have passed 70 percent of spending across the house floor. the senate has passed nine. this four weeksville let us bring the rest of those individual appropriations bills to the floor that are substantially lower spending levels

former congressman byron donalds, tennessee congressman chuck flieschman. congressman mark green who called being transgender a disease and was nominated by donald trump to be secretary of the army but had to withdraw over his history of transphobia. congressman roger williams who was investigated by the house ethics committee by adding a carve out to a deal that would have benefitted the car dealerships he teowns. and louisiana congressman mike johnson. "the new york times" reports when republican members of congress tried to justify their votes against certifying the election, about three quarters of them relied on the arguments of a low profile louisiana congressman representative -- you guessed it -- mike johnson who "the times" calls the most important architect. ift. that isn't bonkers enough r you, nbc news is reporting house speaker kevin mccarthy is floating the idea to have the republican conference re-install kevin mccarthy as speaker with far right congressman jim jordan as his assistant speaker. because why have one guy who just lost when you co

i think some more moderates, byron donalds would be historic is the first black republican speaker.e is relatively new, in 2020 but was involved in crafting the government funding extension with an 8% cut. he negotiated with the mainstream partnership folks and a personable person. kevin hearn, also very personable, mcdonald's franchise owner. deeply conservative and proposed in the past cuts to futures of security -- social security medicare benefits but someone who is well-liked. mike johnson is number five in the leadership. dan muse are from pennsylvania through his hat in the ring. gary palmer from alabama, he is a republican policy committee chair man, deeply conservative but a quiet figure. it could go to someone like palmer if the conservatives and moderates get into a deadlock and look for someone who is in the middle. host: keri in virginia, independent. you are next. caller: i was listening this morning, i find this to be a very important subject. i wanted to say to you, moderator, i'm disappointed for your ableist mention of antidepressants. for all of those people out t

i'm backing byron donalds. that you just enumerated -- elizabeth: congressman, we've got to get it clear, are the republicans going to stop fighting and will they vote a speaker in tomorrow? >> this republican is going to stop fighting but i can't speak for 217 other republicans. elizabeth: they're still fighting? >> let's see what happens today in the forum. elizabeth: what are you hearing, are they still fighting? >> some people still have, you know, hurt feelings from what's happened in the last two or three weeks and we need to move on. look, they're all creations of the biden administration and they're all focus and the disaster that is and the biden administration. elizabeth: nine of the republicans house speaker and and is that the problem. >> that is not a problem and going for the moderate and moderate and conservative and not choosing and i'm going to vote for the person i think and right person on the candidate voting for that individual and the other republicans do that and i can't speak for them. >

i think byron donalds is the answer to that question. u're looking for somebody who can appease these rogue maga folks led by matt gaetz, i think donalds is the answer. maria: donalds is also on the list. i don't know if he's been making case about it but it's a great point and i do agree with the point. joining me is congresswoman claudia tenney, a member of the house ways and means and science, space and technology committees. thanks very much for being here this morning. have you decided who you would like to see as kevin mccarthy's replacement? >> i think right now we have to have someone p who knows the territory, who can understand the institution itself and i am right now supporting steve scalise because he's the one person who has reached out to me. look, this was a sad day, i think. i consider myself to be right wing and a conservative the. but we also have a very interesting scenario here. i agree with kevin on this, this is not about conservative wins. this is not about matt getting everything he wanted. this was about us havin

byron donalds of florida. some people put his name in to run against mccarthy in january, and there is even some people wondering could mccarthy himself get back in, although the eight people who come of the eight republicans who joined with the democrats to toss him from the speaker's chair have shown no signs that they are wavering in their opposition to him, so it looks unlikely he will make a comeback here. reporter: we learned this friday afternoon that nominations, the filing deadline for nominations is sunday at noon for the republican conference, so walk us through thin what happens after that and how soon a next for vote could be. steven: yeah, so the plan as of now or as of friday afternoon, it is, it has been yeah, the things with these republican plans is they change. but the plan has been to go conference on monday and have the candidates's forum where they lay out their candidacy, then on tuesday morning uh, meet again to vote on their nominees, and that could potentially include multiple rounds

caller: i would like to see byron donalds get the speaker of the house. want to know, when can we expect to have the cadaver in the white house removed? host: why mr. donald's? caller: i heard him speak and he is truthful, he doesn't beat around the bush and he speaks in a language that we can understand. he's not afraid. i don't think he is on the take. he is of the right age and we don't need another elderly person in there. host: ok, they made their pitches and their case to become the next speaker and after that he came before cameras and talked about what he expected. [video clip] >> will mr. fisk be in there? >> might pitches simple, this will be a process where its member driven, not speaker driven. we need to get back to work and secure a borders and run our government responsibly and hold this administration responsible and last but not least, we have to be focused on purpose and mission, that's it. i spoke to the president and i think the president will watches go through a process i think you will be happy on the next speaker of the house. i thi

you had byron donalds freedom caucus member scott perry, freedom caucus member chip roy. he'll be on the show tonight. freedom caucus member you know ,they had two separate plans. they put togethe tr and you are 100% right. they were voted down by the conservativerivoted dos. that would have been the perfect bridge to get to. number one, have cuts, have border security cuts he in spending and get us to the holy grail, which waspropri the appropriations bills that would have been completed. that to meat t was the answer.t. and no, they went against it. i don't know why becausewhy. but consent consider. well, you do know why. consider the moderates a you described all voted for these veryll tough, very conservative bills. it was the hard right that voted against themainst th. and people back home want to take a look at how their member voted and askthe mr are just terminally stupid. do you do you prefer to cove?r everything screwed up? and in terms of the people who voted today with thee eight teds be clear, they're not republicans. they shouldn't, frankle not y, should in

what does byron donalds think about this? we begin the aishah hosni on capitol hill. >> good morning to you both. you saw jim jordan on the list. he has been getting phone calls as well. it is up to the conference. the key question here, guys, the key thing to keep in mind what happens if the conference nominates kevin mccarthy again and keeps nominating him? that's a possibility. i asked him about that last night. listen. >> if 200 don't give up on you, others that really support you. if you get nominated -- >> i love these 200 and they have gone so much and down in the conference. they will say they will keep voting for me. i think you should put the country first. >> okay. not a clear yes or no answer there. right now, martha, the house is out of session. we don't expect the speaker vote until next week. that means the house is paralyzed. lawmakers can't pass legislation, including a very important budget that is due in less than 45 days. committees can hold hearings but martha, it's doubtful that they will. congress is pr

florida congressman byron donalds joins me now.e do you stand on supporting ukraine? >> stuart, first, it's it's great to be with you. second thing i'll say is supporting ukraine is not something i want to do at this point, but we've got to put that to the side. support for israel is what matters right now. the house republicans, we're going to do that this week, but the only thing we're saying is it's got to be paid for. we are running a $2 trillion deficit this year. we can't continue to play the old games of washington where emergencies are not paid for because you're running a $2 trillion deficit. that's money we've not to borrow, that is money that's going to continue to eliminate the purchasing power of every certain american citizen. we've got to change the way washington works. paying for israeli aid is very simple to do, it will not stop israel from doing what they need to do. and, quite frankly, new irs agents are not going to help us raise revenue. they simply are not. we were raising record revenue before joe biden a al

byron donalds joining us this morning, and we'll be right back.y, businesses everywhere are asking: is it possible? with comcast business... it is. is it possible to help keep our online platform safe from cyberthreats? absolutely. can we provide health care virtually anywhere? we can help with that. is it possible to use predictive monitoring to address operations issues? we can help with that, too. with the advanced connectivity and intelligence of global secure networking from comcast business. it's not just possible. it's happening. the virus that causes shingles is sleeping... in 99% of people over 50. and it could strike at any time. think you're not at risk? wake up. because shingles could wake up in you. if you're over 50, talk to your doctor or pharmacist about shingles prevention. - i'm sherry - and i'm john. i'm a pharmacist. as we were starting to age, it's like, well how can we help our cognitive abilities? we saw prevagen. i did read the clinical study and went ahead and gave it a try. i feel that prevagen is helping me with overall

he mentioned byron donalds might be able to get the votes and do you think that's a possibility?n donalds couldn't even get a majority of the votes in the conference up against eight other candidates. so maybe? it's hard to see a scenario by which if byron donalds was the clear favorite and gathered 217 votes that he wasn't able to, and have the majority of vets where you can make the case for 217. you will start to see ined conversation about an a toechlt to empower patrick mchenry for a short period of time so that they can deal with this crush of legislation that is just bearing down on them, but even that is a really hard sell. you know, a good chunk of the republican conference is not in favor of that and there are a lot of democrats that are uncomfortable, as well. every time i try to come up with a solution, katy, even one that you want to draw up with some fan pick, even that is difficult because there isn't a single person who can get the 217 points. >> do democrats step in at any point? are they feeling pressure to do so? >> i was in the press conference with pete aguil

byron donalds joining us this morning, and we'll be right back. stay with us.ney for a really long time to find some relief. cosentyx works for me. cosentyx helps real people get real relief from the symptoms of psoriatic arthritis or psoriasis. serious allergic reactions, severe skin reactions that look like eczema, and an increased risk of infections, some fatal, have occurred. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine or plan to or if ibd symptoms develop or worsen. i move so much better because of cosentyx. ask your rheumatologist about cosentyx. maria: welcome back. we are monitoring the situation in israel as we learn that the fbi is now targeting supporters of former president trump. according to an explosive "newsweek" story, it is reporting that a new surveillance program is underway on trump supporters over what the bureau perceives as possible threats of violence and major civil disturbances from anyone who supports the former president. the fbi is denying this explosive "newsweek" report in a statement. meanwhile, hillary

florida republican byron donalds says no. >> we have to stop this process of bundling in all these disparate issues just to try to get the members to vote for it. i think that is the wrong approach. >> reporter: connecticut democrat chris murphy said israel and ukraine need the money now. >> we know there's a huge bipartisan majority for israel aid and for ukraine aid in both the house and the senate. so why not just do it all at one time? >> reporter: the white house plans to formally unveil that funding request tomorrow. it's worth noting that approving it requires a fully functioning congress, which does not exist right now as there is no speaker of the house. norah. >> weijia jiang, thank you. >>> the "cbs overnight news" >>> the "cbs overnight news" will be ri this is a hot flash. this is a hot flash. but this is a not flash. ♪ i got a good feeling ♪ there's big news for women going through menopause. veozah - a prescription treatment for moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms - the medical name for hot flashes and night sweats. with hormone-free veozah, you can have fewer hot flashes, a

so it's really unclear at this moment. >> trump ally byron donald received some votes in several roundsf the 15 vote round votes for mccarthy back in january. at least one in the last jordan round. he is a confirmed candidate for this nomination. what is his viability here? >> his viability is simply that he is considered part of the next generation of republican leaders and he is you know, associated with donald trump in a real way. that's pretty appealing now. we are not in the era of the '90s or early ats or republican party where the technocrat or established republican is the clear consensus or strong candidate. it's the one who has the support of the grassroots. someone like donalds fits well in that category. >> worked for jim jordan. he had trump's actual endorsement for speaker and couldn't get to. for as much criticism as kevin mccarthy received for the deal making back in january to eventually win the gavel, it was ultimately one of those deals that led to his demise giving the power to just one member of the conference to call for that vote to vacate the chair. is that what'

jack bergman of michigan, byron donalds of florida, on nbc's meet the press this morning, kevin mccarthy said the cast has got to stop. >> i just know this is not a time to play games. this is embarrassing for the republican party, for the nation, and we need to solve the problem. lisa: republicans hope to choose a speaker nominee tuesday. that they will mark three weeks since the house had a permanent leader. still to come. how muslim and jewish faith groups are coming together doing a -- during a time of war. a brief but spectacular take on black women, sex, and the black church area >> this is pbs news weekend from weta videos in washington, home of the pbs newshour. >> as house republicans grapple with their own divisions. last month, a group of election experts warned american democracy is under great stress. the report outlines 24 recommendations spanning politics and tech protect american elections. thank you for joining us. 2020 was three years ago but clearly there were americans in power to deny the results including one just this past week. can you help us determine where are

byron donalds of florida, tom emmer of minnesota, kevin hern of oklahoma, and mike johnson of louisiana the fourth round is now underway. so will this whittle its way down to one person? that would be the goal. it's taken awhile to get to four. senior capitol hill correspondent chat pergram on where things stand right now, chad. reporter: good morning, harris. they started with eight candidates and down to 7 and now down to four candidates in the fourth round and i'll redo the totals from the room and closed door secret ballots since 9:00 this morning. tom elmoreer, ma majority whipm hernandez and three voted presen this fourth round of voting. tom emmer far and away is scoring the most ballots and looks to have a cluster between johnson, donalds and kevin hern there. he's lot a bit of support and if they get to three person race, what happens, are they able to coalesce around a candidate and move to the floor? i was told by somebody earlier this morning that probably easy to get to 200 votes on the floor if they were to go to a floor vote, but closing that last mile getting to 217, tha

with the latest from capitol hill two freedom caucus members have been working hard, congressman byron donaldexas congressman chip roy, byron is from florida. welcome both of you. all right. chip let me start with you. this is what i don't understand. okay. people want to go really far back you could say okay, maybe we needed the 12 appropriations bills done. i think that's a fair criticism from people like gaetz and others. however you guys are going to win or lose together here. you both work very hard on a first proposal that would have cut 8 percent in federal spending except for securing our borders our military and our veterans. i thought that was a good 30 day bridge to get the 12 propose relations. you're four complete. done and finished. why didn't that pass? i mean, i'm a freedom caucus guy. i support the freedom caucus. why didn't some people support that? >> well sean it's good to be on it's good to be on with my friend byron and if anybody should be pulling a fire alarm it's the republicans because of the massive dumpster border and the racking up deck. we cannot continue the sta

perhaps run as well as another florida congressman who has recently clashed with matt gaetz named byron donalds. a wad of internal political dynamics a here when we talk about this --dynamics at play here when we talk about this motion to vacate. caller: i feel like kevin mccarthy is a wonderful speaker of the house. he handles everything in a very professional manner, including dealing with the news media, all of the questions they continually ask, and how he goes about answering them very directly. the democratic party are not even transparent, from biden all the way down. we don't know what is going on most of the time. as far as matt gaetz, matt gaetz -- i like matt gaetz a lot, but he is totally out of control, and i think he is trying to do something for other means. that is all i have to say today. it is very frustrating, seeing what is going on and how even the speaker is being treated. thank you for having me. host: that was teresa with her comments in pennsylvania. let me go to rock in new york. caller: my comment really is for you more than the guest you have, but let me just say on

where do those supporters for kevin hearne and byron donald go?go to tom emmer or mike johnson? what about the four members who voted present or for someone else? that's six ballots right there. if all members of the house vote, there are still six holdouts, we don't elect a speaker. they can only tolerate four defections on the floor. neil: we are separately hearing a new york republican, referring to congressman emmer as speaker designate. that would imply he has been chosen as the republican conference's choice and submitting his name and candidacy to the full house. that's the way it would go. the washington examiner, he is the guy, no sure bet he will ultimately be the guy but what do you make of this? >> i'm not sure what makes tom emmer any better to win a floor vote than kevin mccarthy, steve scalise or jim jordan, still have this fundamental problem that the conference is internally divided, republicans who see themselves as institutionalized and a lot of distress that only worsened over all these failed rounds of floor voting. amer has t

maria: i thought byron donalds was donald trump sky. >> not more.ia: he's endorsing both of them. >> mike johnson seems to be the person that mr. trump wants to have in. i think that's an important message for all of us to appreciate. thus there was any doubt of whose could be the republican nominee. maria: i guess he early said i'm not doing another debate, the next debate in miami. chaos interrupted on capitol hill last night, the war in the middle east intensifying, israeli forces conducted two separate airstrikes, one west bank in another in syria as the war interstate 19. we are awaiting a possible ground invasion. also worth noting is these attacks that we have seen on our own troops and our bases in syria and iraq. that caused anthony blinken to send a warning to iran. >> as he should. maria: i was impressed that he actually gave that warning. it was obviously what to do. >> without iran there is no hezbollah or hamas they are fully funded by iran in the state sponsor of terror. i do find it interesting and noteworthy that the israelis have n

it was great to hear my good friend byron donalds remarks. i voted for byron donalds continuing resolution that secured the border and cut spending 8. i thought it was an outstanding ing proposal for a stopgap spending measure, including shannon, something you haven't talked about, which is that two thirds of spending is mandatory spending. and mr. donalds resolution and put together with his group also had a commission to reform mandatory spending programs, something that's a much more big fiscal problem for our country. so look, i supported that. it failed. it failed because all the democrats voted against it, plus 21 republicans. and we had six republicans tell us, shannon, they just wouldn't vote for any continuing resolution, period, full stop. they preferred the government essentially to shut down while we continued the appropriations bills. i think that's the wrong approach. we've passed 70% of spending across the house floor. the senate has passed none. this for weeks will let us bring the rest of those individual appropriations bills

byron donald's should be the next speaker. kirk cameron on the impact of social media on children. yong kim who wants avenue some to cancel his climate shipped to china and in their foreign policy failure, venezuela. we get their dirty oil and they get a lot of money. nicholas maduro is laughing, that's "my take" next. you can't buy great conversations or moments that matter, but you can invest in them. at t. rowe price our strategic investing approach can help you build the future you imagine. t. rowe price, invest with confidence. this isn't just freight. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. promises of all shapes and sizes. each, with a time and a place they've been promised to be. a promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. the last eight years have been the hottest in history. canadian north resources plans on doing its part to combat the climate crisis by developing a vast resource of critical minerals for clean energy initiatives worldwide. canadian north resources. >> this is not about about the hostages, this is not about rescuing

. >> and this morning another candidate byron donalds making his case on fox. >> we can't have unityour conference. it will start with a fresh voice in leadership working with all of our colleagues to accomplish the mission that our voters sent us here to do. >> now the deadline to enter the race is in one hour. the gop candidate forum tomorrow night behind closed doors, a seek ballot election for republicans to nominate their new candidate on tuesday morning. and in a floor vote, well, we'll see when that happens but sometime after that. and all the while, the clock ticks as a massive aid package for israel and ukraine awaits congressional action and a potential shutdown less than one month away. and let's break it down with mj lee, paul kane, mario parger and margaret talev from axios. thank you for being here. it is been an ugly, messy week on the hill. the moment there is seven possible candidates who have emerged as speaker. there is a list of the potential nominees here, people running to be the nominee. there could be others. we'll see in the next hour or so if there is anyone

it won't be byron donalds or any of the long litany of names that people have floated. but we'll see what happens over the next week because i think, as scott said, it's a national security risk. >> yeah. and, bakari, i guess to some extent you can't let the republicans flail for too long, right, because if the president has this aid package that he wants to get through the congress, obviously you need a speaker of the house. and so i think while hakeem jeffries and the democrats were all too pleased to let jim jordan sort of hang out there in the wind, i can't imagine you can do that for too much longer with these other items that have to get through the congress. >> sure. i think you have a compromise candidate like patrick mchenry, who will be, for all intents and purposes, a human c.r. i think you'll have somebody who will be able to come in and be able to stay for 30 days or 60 days or 90 days until republicans are able to get their act together, and i think democrats would support that. i do not imagine that you're going to have democrats vote for someone who is o

i see byron donalds, marjorie taylor greene among others.ou're right to say the administration has a lot they can do without the legislature. but there's certain bills voted down by democrats, there was a party line vote, 217 democrats voting against a bill to sanction financial supporters of hamas, my point being, republicans should bring up this legislation in wake of the most recent attacks. do you think this causes them to unify around a speaker this week? >> i do. i think that we're seeing the process get expedited, we're seeing a lot of conversations saying, look, we need to unify now more t ever, this is underlying the issue. the fact that we can't talk about the gang of eight getting an p intelligence briefing right now in terms of what's really going on is extraordinary. we need to have leadership in place on the republican side in order to ensure that they're getting the briefings that they need and you mentioned the financial as expect of this. i just want to point out that the markets will be reacting to this come monday morning,

. >> bill: byron donalds spoke with us last hour. kevin mccarthy is out of a job as speaker leaving the path for his replacement wide open. right now republicans plan to hold a closed candidate forum five days from now. next tuesday with a possible floor vote maybe on wednesday of next week. whoever they choose they need backing from some of those eight republicans who voted to oust mccarthy. they did so with the unanimous support of democrats. what a team. griff jenkins tracking it all every twist and turn looks ahead now at what we expect to happen next there. griff, good morning to you on the hill. >> good morning, bill. those twists and turns are puzzling those of us up on capitol hill because just seconds ago behind me in this position just off the house floor the speaker mchenry walked behind us with press saying what are you doing here? unclear what he is doing other than occupying speaker mccarthy's vacant office and trying to meet. because the house is in recess. most members have gone home. we're in uncharted territory here

all but byron donalds and gary palmner. >> this is ridiculous. we have to support the nominee of our conference because a majority party is only one as it votes as a majority. i am sick of sitting in a room listening to everybody talk about their feelings. >> some republicans are looking for an alternative. they mulled the possibility of electing mchenry. >> we should be moving toward given patrick mchenry the powers of the speaker as the speaker pro tem. >> supports fellow floridian byron donalds. had backed a return of mccarthy. republicans hold the candidate forum tonight. a floor vote could come tomorrow. >> harris: i'm smiling at that one lawmaker who said we're just tired of everybody coming to work with their feelings. imagine that. that's exactly what is happening. good to see you, thank you. let's bring in former congressman, former undersecretary of the army and first iraq war veteran patrick murphy and former georgia congressman doug collins. patrick, i come to you first because there is so much going on in the world that we are talkin

you, tonight it is frustrating to me i stayed in touch with you through the whole process, you, byron donald great alternatives you put forward for a continuing resolution that would have bought time, cut spending, secured the borders, protected our vets in our defense department and those two proposals got rejected by the conservatives here. what went on? >> great to be on an great to hear from my former boss and good friend from texas, ted cruz . the fact of the matter is the democratic party has no interes in working with us to solve any of the problems the american people are facing. they don't want to solve the problem of crime in the nation' capital that led to democrat being carjacked nine blocks fro here. they don't want to do at the borders or the fennel pouring into texas they don't want to deal with pushing back on china they don't want to deal with th woke agenda, they don't want to do with any pressing issues of the day so it is left to us to govern its left to the 221 of u to figure out how to get it done . if we have minor disagreements in our party, some of that spills out in
