republican house can restrain spending and the majority is the only century and what is keeping this meant geordieom popular restraining the spinning what is your concern. >> earmarks is the big concern of mine and get very stubborn about grants and they're now consuming and half a trillion dollars secure federal money in the put it in perspective consuming $4000 every family texas your these are not contracts of goods and services were basically throwing money and people them to go out and do good things prayed is a very little follow-up and very little accountability and roles and results of all the money civilly goes into the salaries of these different organizations is my en say growing things will forfeit nine edify for more grants next year printed now this is the third largestth expenditure in e entire federal budget behind only social security and national defense got to address that if the government needs a service forgot that the government itself cannot produce, you should put out an rfp and request for bids and competitive bids the lowest responsible bidder and that is the way it need

also democrats winning an extra seat and giving them that one seat geordie would mean that no one senator could derail negotiations. when i say that, we think of people like joe manchin and kyrsten sinema who have sometimes not voted with the entire democratic caucus, throwing off negotiations or plans set by leaders. essentially giving democrats some breathing room so they don't have to negotiate directly with those two lawmakers and they could afford to lose a vote. talking about things like absences, sicknesses, we are still coming out of covid. with the extra breathing room, not all 50 democrats will have to be in washington to cast a vote on every bill to make sure it will pass. they will have that breathing room in case there are unforeseen absences. these are just a few reasons why, even though democrats hold a majority of the chamber as things currently stand, them gaining one more seat would have a significant impact. host: we have seen president biden stay away from campaigning in the state. we have seen president trump stay away. how much support from the senate themselves are

allow this conference to be dragged down a path to a paralyzed house that weakens our hard-fought geordie majority. >> is there anyone who can make a run at the speakership if he doesn't get those votes? >> that is also unclear. we have learned that republicans in this group have reached out to some of the course mccarthy's on top deputies. they asked all of them to jump into this race, we were told all of them said no, that they are backing mccarthy. the hope among these mccarthy detractors is once it is abundantly clear that he cannot become elected speaker, somebody else could jump into the race, perhaps one of those three at the moment they are not signaling they will do that, but this is such a rare scenario that we are talking about, if he can't get 218 votes, then we will go to a second ballot voting and third ballot voting and even beyond. it's been 100 years, 1923 was the last time there had been more than one ballot to elect a house speaker and it's possible that could happen again. >> thank you. >>> up next, the latest on the house january 6 committee and the question that now

and they were unprepared for, that created great instability in american politics, congressional geordie swung back and forth radically and that period of time. we had a deeply embedded partisan press, parties owned newspapers, candidates own papers, governors owned newspapers and that partisan press attacked the opponent and protected the political figure. does any of that sound familiar to what we are going through now? voters constantly looking for someone who had answers about this great set of dislodging and disrupting external factors created terminus volatility and the kind of alienation in our politics. all of that is present now but the one big difference, you have one person, you can't separate any of this from donald trump. he is the person who has given this rhetorical rage and continues to farm that rage among voters who cannot believe, despite a preponderance of evidence, that he would deceive them on this topic. he is and they are being deceived. >> host: that is pivoting to my next question about the most important big truth, the chance that some of these folks are watchi
