i comepped president biden and his administration for -- i commend president biden and his administration supporting sweden's accession to nato. i look forward to welcoming sweden to the alliance as soon as possible. i yield the floor. note the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: resulting in multiple revisions. third, we have continued to pursue independent investigations into the origin of the pandemic and published our results. fourth, additional research by other researchers support our early conclusions. today, i hope to share more about this important research with the goal of being better prepared for future pandemics. however, i must first address several allegations made about our work. the select subcommittee majority has alleged that our paper was orchestrated by dr. anthony fauci to cover up a lab origin as directed in the february 1, 2020 conference call. it has also been suggested that a grant of order to myself and colleagues some five different countries was a quid pro quo for changing our conclusions. these allegations ar

our message to the biden administration, we're not going to surrender america. it's time to fight and we've-- the people you have behind me in the freedom caucus are willing to do that. i'll also say what coach tuberville is doing in the senate is sending such a positive message. business as usual is over with and i hope other senators will join him in holding up the woke, unbelievable crazy agenda that this biden administration has had. the day that they can just say that they're going to give this country away is over with. folks, it's about one word, freedom. it's my honor to introduce, josh. >> thank you. billy graham once said when a brave man takes a respond, the spines of others are often stiffened and i'm proud to stand with the spine-stiffening group that's behind me, to move a measure to the right to make sure that is the most conservative measure that has been passed in recent history, hopefully we'll see that today. in a word picture, it has been joe biden's drag queen story our reading experiment with our men and women in uniform and he subjected fr

it is a balance that the biden administration has thought. they are difficult decisions to make. i think the record would show, we have been slow over 1.5 years now, in making the right decision in providing the support that ukraine needs. >> we have seen other countries that have allied with the united states, from nato, such as france, take a different approach or adopt a different tone when it comes to ties with russia. more explicitly, talk about the need to maintain russia as, not necessarily a partner, but someone you have to have dealings with. maintaining more of an opal -- more of an open channel. how do you think about long-term western-russian ties? even after there's some kind of resolution to whatever it may be with the ukraine-russian conflict, how should we think about this? >> my view has been that the united states, nato, the rest of the world has got to come to grips with the problems that russia presents, the russian federation. he mentioned the french were up -- the french approach, you talked about the one most insulted by putin, president macron. pleading wi

shouldn't do that during the biden administration. >> there is talk on capitol hill about impeaching homeland security secretary, alejandro mayorkas. the administration is also saying now, the border crossings are down, the numbers do show that they are down. about two years now since february of 2021. the biden administration took office. they say that's a sign that their policies are working. are they not? >> i would disagree with that. i think if you look at just border patrol numbers, the numbers are down. unfortunately, what the administration is doing, they're pushing all of these individuals to ports of entry, using parole using the cbp one app and others. well border patrol numbers are, down the numbers at port of entry for illegal entry is up over 1000 percent. so, the surge is not diminishing, it's just moving to different parts of the border. >> i do want to ask you about, that it's a process that they are putting into place. to know who these immigrants, or who are seeking asylum, or seeking some other form of relief. they're asking them to go through a process, they're f

but, i will argue that the biden administration should have the ability to set forth the requirementsf asylum. and this judge, again as we saw during the trump administration, is inserting his own opinion of what he believes asylum should be. and therefore, taking it out of congress and under the executive branch. that should not occur. >> i want to ask you about what we were talking about at the beginning of the segment, which is what's happening in the state of texas, in particular. there is this floating barrier, and that the state has put in. it is lined with razor wire, it is floating in the rio grande, where a lot of migrants are crossing. it's causing serious injuries, in some cases people who own property in that area are complaining about it as well. do you think that governor abbott should, or has even the legal right to have that kind of barrier in those waters? >> look, i think governor abbott is having to take a number of measures. the maritime buoys is just one, because the federal government is not doing it. >> but is it legal? and you would know -- because >> yeah, i t

this is part of the biden administration's politicalization of the military. it is completely unnecessary. it is clearly unlawful, and i urge all members to support this amendment. with that i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields. mr. jackson: madam chair, i'd like to yield 30 seconds to my distinguished colleague, representative luna from florida. the chair: the gentlelady is recognized. mrs. luna: i just want to stand up by saying as an united states air force veteran and elected to congress while pregnant supports this because not only does it completely attack our ability to be military ready, when you are advocating for a service member to have a child whipped from their womb, they can't deploy. to say it's constitutional in its argument, to say republicans are somehow attacking women in service because we support this is not only a lie but it completely just destroys everything that this military stands for. not only their religious objections to taxpayers funding this type of stuff but to say as a military service member that you would be somehow

it is a balance the biden administration has sought to strike.y are difficult decisions to make. but the record would show over a year end a half now with the support ukraine it needs. other such as france with ties with russia. more explicitly talking about the need to maintain russia a neighbor you have to dealings within to europe need more of an open channel there how can we conceive of this you can see him sticking up for the 15 to 20 years. how should we think about this? >> my view has been that the united states, nato, the rest of the world has got to come to grips with the problems that russia presents the russian federation. and what we are dealing with however is the government and the kremlin now in a highly personalized system led by vladimir putin that is extremely dangerous and destabilizing not only within russia but to the international system and particularly in europe. so you mentioned the french government's approach. i thought one of the world leaders that was the most disrespected and insulted by president putin was presiden

we have seen the bedding administration -- the biden administration support for ukraine and attempt toolate putin diplomatically while also making clear, as you mentioned earlier, that the u.s. is not seeking regime change and the administration is seeking to maintain open channels in certain areas, including arms-control. we have seen president biden avoid direct military conflict with russia which was evident on the back and forth over which weapons systems to the provider to ukraine. and over ukraine's secession to nato. do you think the administration is striking the right balance? what else does it need to do to balance these two tracts of a crime to global conflict while at the same time, not permitting putin to take very destabilizing steps? sullivan: i think the administration has been slow in providing the support that ukraine needs and that would not provoke a dramatic response by russia. i think the facts speak from themselves with all the different weapons systems -- speak for themselves with all the different weapons systems we have said no to it than allies persuaded us t

these have helped the biden administration' massive overreach as d.c. bureaucrats use the federal government to overregulate hardworking mens 1 -- learns -- americans 1,000 miles from the swamp. in 2013 the prairie chicken was endangered only to delist it a year later desm spite losing a court case and seeing an actual increase in lesser prairie chicken population they're now classified as threat and endangered in two distinct population segments in the united states. kansas farmers, ranchers an energy producers, those closer to the lesser prairie chicken habitat are excellent stewards of natural resources. they have repeatedly demonstrated responsible actions as they tend the lead that feeds and fuels the world. what they don't need is a heavy-handed government approach to land management, especially when those mandates are unfounded and not batesed on actual science. today we can correct this mistaken classification with a congressional review act. even in a divided senate, the c.r.a. resolution passed with bipartisan support. successful, voluntary pu

may not have existed before, and that is -- and i talked to diplomats about this -- if the biden administrationh north korea, president biden needs to write a letter to kim jong-un. it needs to be a leader-to-leader letter. that's what they got use odd to with donald trump. whether the president is willing to do that, i have no idea whatsoever. that's what i was told. this is months ago. not after this incident, but when we were talking in general about how to revive diplomacy so stalled in north korea. what was said to me is it has to be leader-to-leader communication. they want letter from president biden. maybe this would be the opportunity for president biden to write that letter and maybe open up a sliver of communication, any communication at all would be a good thing. >> and if this is intentionally as you believe what it is, does it change how the biden administration engages with the north koreans about returning this individual? >> so, first, i do believe it's intentional. north koreans did not do this. you know, when i went there in january, north koreans are not even there. since co

the biden administration vetoed legislation that would have revoked president biden's waters of the u.s. rule because his administration prefers to regulate every puddle and drainage ditch from sea to shining sea. it hamstrings producers by adding the lesser prayer chicken -- prairie chicken to the endangered species list. whether you're a parent, child, born or unborn, a student, farmer, or small business owner, you don't need the federal government trying to control your life. finally, we need to create a government that's accountable. according to recent i.r.s. whistleblower testimony made public by the house ways and means committee it appears that president biden was not only aware of his son, hunter biden's corrupt foreign business deals, but was also in the room with them. we need to rid out corruption in the executive branch and hold the federal government accountable and rein in the white house abuse of power. as the biden administration has proven time and time again, executive orders are out of control and they are no way to govern in a democracy. that's why i introduces the

i think it is fair questioning why the biden administration went down this route given president biden, and other democrats, recognize he did not have the authority to do this in the first place. what time have we lost and what frustrations might have bubbled up to the surface because of false expectations about what could be done by the president? at the end of the day i think the president did not have the authority. it was clear he did not have the authority. we would have been better off had he worked with congress to work through some sort of cancellation or student loan relief that was supported by both parties. >> missouri families are struggling to meet ends. saddling working families with student loan debt is not the answer to the extent the adjustments need to be made. it is going to have to be a statute passed by congress. >> anymore? >> yes.

what is the game here that the biden administration is playing, gordon? can have good relations, quote, unquote, with china. where you really can't because of the nature of the chinese regime and the view in beijing that the u.s. is an existential threat so they're trying desperately to have these conversations and they're just making the situation worse because they're giving incentives to china to engage in even more belligerent conduct because there is virtually nothing china can do right now to trigger a response from the biden administration. the chinese know it and so they're pushing us really, really hard. cheryl: gina raimondo is the next one that's going to go over, and we learned as liz mentioned in the commercial break, there's reports they're funneling money into our education system in the united states. it's egregious. gordon chang, thank you for being here. we appreciate it. >> thank you, cheryl. cheryl: all right. well, coming up, the biden family making a friday night admission on an issue they've been called out on for years. it's making

host: why was the biden administration at fault and why was the trump administration fault guest: --ault? guest: it was president trump who entered into the withdrawal deal with the taliban in return for very little else. it was supposed to lead to peace talks between the taliban and the then western-backed government it's happened. president trump had been trying to withdraw troops all along until the end of his administration into their work successive troop drawdowns which, in the end, left only about 2000 troops on the ground in kabul mostly. where they were basically in charge of guarding the embassy but also the airport. when the biden administration was sworn in, there were no plans that the trump had left or prepared for this withdrawal. the report false president biden for taking actions, which includes his decision to follow through with the withdrawal, albeit later than the taliban stipulated. this withdrawal had serious impacts on the ability of the western-backed government and the current president to not only maintain power but run the country which led to its collapse

[laughter] cheryl: it was. >> we go back a couple months, obviously, a lot of concerns about the sector. i think they were ov

this is yet another example of the biden administration's reckless decisionmaking. our republican commitment to america means creating a government that's accountable. since january, house republicans have fought to expose the wrongdoing by president biden and those that he appointed. it is time to put a stop to the reckless actions that the biden administration continues to pursue that has led to 74% of americans believing that our nation is on the wrong track. madam speaker, it's time to demand accountability from the president. it is time once again to have a federal government that is worthy, worthy of the american people. thank you. madam speaker, this year marks 285 years of worship at the presbyterian church of upper west church located in franklin county, pennsylvania. founded in 1738, the church has been in its current location since 1794. during president george washington's second term as president. since that time, the church has grown into a pillar, and a major part of the community it serves. working tirelessly among so many local charities and missions

fentanyl leading cause of death between 18 and 45 of americans the biden administration needs to step maria: especially since the border agents tell me, that the number of apprehensions chinese nationals is soaring, right now chinese nationals crossing the border, into texas, i have the is up 1300% right now, governor what do you think this is about? because gordon chang told us the other day these are largely military aged men. are they escaping from ccp or do you thing directed by ccp to set up shop, in america, until they get their next directive? >> they said we're trying to get to bottom to you typically see type of closing migrants are wearing when they crossborder illegally the away chinese are dressed is completely different seems, like more dressed to come here to do business, and, know this. that is number of people crossing the border illegally on terrorist watch list increased dramatically under biden administration so truly seems like, joe biden is failing fundamental task of a president that is national security, and his own southern border, not only thought just chinese

i want to start with what happened monday, the biden administration suing the state of texas for a newborder in the rio grande river, calling it dangerous and unlawful. abbott accuses the administration of not doing their job on the border. what do you make of it? congressman castro: in the last month they have put out death traps on the rio grande. razor wire along the banks of the river, placed in the river so it becomes invisible to asylum-seekers who get caught up in it. he also put out these barrel traps with wiring and netting so people get caught in them. he ordered state troopers not to help people who are in the water and to push them back towards mexico. there is a case of a four-year-old girl passing out in the water and was pushed back by the troopers towards mexico and the rio grande. they also refused to give water to migrants who are trekking through 105, 110 weather in deep south texas. these are barbaric and extremely cruel actions and i am glad the biden administration and department of justice has filed an injunction to stop it. anchor: so you agree with that move? c

the biden administration is clicking their heels together delighted with his very high-profile memberan party attacking president biden and democrats for doing so much to give practical help to the american people, particularly stuff they will really want help with. if there is a theme a common playbook undemocratic governments right now, i think it is both defense against what republicans are trying to do and offense on the world's most practical things. the kinds of things joe biden really wants to be known for. the kinds of things i think today's biden era democratic party is putting up on the marquee. the idea of what government can do that helps everyone. we saw today in a big way in illinois. illinois democratic governor j.d. sports are just announcing the biggest infrastructure and investment in that state's history. the largest multi year repair program in illinois history, it's expected to rip -- >> roads and bridges in aviation and everything. it's also something we've also seen in very dramatic form in the state of pennsylvania with, a new democratic governor of that state

the economy was red hot when biden took office, this is the post, growing swiftly, then the biden administrations spending trillions of dollars which has led to inflation in this country. >> definitely. and the biggest problem with bidenomics is biden inflation, the key metric i'm consistently look at which i believe will impact voters the most is real wage growth. 26 consecutive months wages have gone down in comparison to inflation and that means americans are struggling to put food on their table, living paycheck to paycheck. and when you look at the numbers too, i believe two out of every three americans are really having a hard time at this moment buying basic goods so, yes, i believe this new york post article is right on the money. the economy will be the issue. cheryl: also too, mike, they talk about those jobs. president biden keeps talking about record 13 million jobs that he, quote, created. those were just recovered post covid. >> and the labor force from december 2019, there's only a million more people working than four years ago. right. and so when you think about that, you have r

biden administration says de they should not have the right to do this.ho the biden administration is trying to assert federally that attorneys general from states ey where abortion is banned can't follow their residents to other states to see if they're getting banned care from someplace where it's legal. beyond those efforts to protect this at the federal level from l the biden administration, you've started to see blue states. places like new york and washington state that have l passed state laws saying that id nobody should be able to get private medical records like st this. just because you've banned abortion in your state doesn't c mean you can effectively enforcy it in mine. here's 19 republican states, 19 republican state attorneys general saying they're going for it. and maybe they already are. when the reporter joe sanka frob the louisville courier journal today asked the kentucky attorney general's office if they have alreadyen pursued private medical records from kentucky womenca who have had medical treatment in other states, the attorney general's office didn't give jo

but the biden administration has no problem with more than three times the number of migrants currently being encountered at the border even if it is temporary. well, you can see the -- the administration trying to spike the football. last may, the department of homeland security said the drop in numbers is proof -- proof that the administration's plan is working as intended. they boasted that the number of unlawful entries between the ports of entry had declined more than 70% since title 42 ended. well, that may be true, but it's tough to brag when the starting point is an all-time record that happened on this administration's watch. in other words, the argument of the administration seems to be, well, it's been as high as 10,000 that day, so now that it's down to only 3,400 a day, it's not as bad as it could be, and let's pat ourselves on the back and say job well done. well, four years ago, in july of 2019, customs and border protection apprehended 2 -- before that we saw fewer than 1,300. in july, before that, only about 800 migrants were apprehended per day. so in other words, the

we've seen the biden administration attempt to maintain support for the u.s.-led coalition that has imposed sanctions on putin, attempted to isolate time diplomatically while mentioning that the united states is not seeking regime change and the administration is seeking to maintain open channels in certain areas, including arms control. we've seen president biden prioritize avoiding a direct military conflict with russia and this has been particularly evident on the back and forth, and ukraine's succession to n.a.t.o. do you think that the administration is striking the right balance? what else does it need to do to balance these two tracks of, now, deterrence of a major destabilizing global conflict, but at the same time not permitting putin to take these kind of, as you say irrational and very destabilizing steps? >> well, i think the administration has been slow in providing the support that ukraine needs and that would not provoke a dramatic response by russia. i think the facts speak for themselves with the different weapons systems that we initially sai
