barbara lee when we had technical difficulties. she's back with us. congresswoman, one of the key concessions speaker mccarthy their support was to tie any debt ceiling increases to spending cuts. the new york times reports the concessions mccarthy made to fiscal conservatives could make it very difficult for him to muster the votes to raise the debt limit, or even put such a measure to a vote. america's going to reach its borrowing limit sometime later this year. how worried are you about what happens after that? >> reverend out, let me say, i'm very worried about that because we paid our bills, we had the full credit clause. we must pay our debts. in fact, what they are proposing is to enact spending cuts. you know where they are going? social security, medicare, pensions for veterans. we will have to fight. we are going to have to figure out a way to make sure this provision of their new rule change does not go through because 6 million jobs also will be lost, or more, if, in fact, this happens. we cannot renege and not pay our debts because it will cause economic calamity this country cannot afford and so

. >> the way that kevin mccarthy negotiates, you might as well have given that away for a wino. >> barbaraed something this week how to prosecutors in -- have cited their decision to hold their seats rather than resign as reason to impose a harsher sentence. your thoughts on that. is it smarter for santos to hold onto the seat for a shred of political protection, or is a better for him to resign? >> i don't know if it's a political calculation. i suppose it could be when you abuse a position of trust and you are in a position of authority, it could be a basis for increasing a sentence. but i think prosecutors -- the fact that he's an office, need to see him as a potential threat. i worry about him as a potential national security threat. i don't have any basis for that other than speculation. but when you're an executive branch and an employee, you go through an exhaustive background investigation one of the things that i want to know is do we have any reason to believe that this person has told lies for which they could be blackmailed? someone could reveal the truth that could cause them

order to win the vote, mccarthy had to agree to many concessions, including lowering the number of gop representatives to remove the speaker. no one was sworn in until the speaker. barbara lee said in part, after four days, thousands of votes, 15 ballots and the longest speaker election since 1858, we can finally begin legislate itring in the 118th congress. i'm looking forward to continuing the work of putting people over politics. >>> she's making history. christina corpus was sworn in as the new sheriff of san matteo county. she is becomes the first latina to hold office buck she's not knew to law enforcement. she worked her way up and she's not afraid to change how it works. >> congratulations. >> christina corpus officially became the 25th chair of san mateo county. and she's breaking new ground. >> the first female and first latina in county history. >> reporter: law enforcement elected leaders and community members were there the watch the new sheriff make his entry share her plans for the plans for the department. >> safety and also will be my driving mission. to keep our community safe, we must learn the challenges and concerns of each community as neighbors ar
