with respect to the supplemental, i'm pleased there has been bipartisan support in both houses of congress for ukraine. i feel confident that we will be able to make sure we have funding. we continue to stand behind ukraine for as long as necessary . >> thank you, madam secretary. two things. first, the absent of president xi and putin, and how it may reshape the meetings, or potentially affect the utility of the g20 going forward? these two leaders at the highest level not being there. also curious if you have any comments on the apparent reports out of china that they are banning the use of iphones by government workers, further restricting them for whatever reason. similar to how we banned tiktok and host:. would that have any effects on the ongoing back and forth over u.s. and chinese technology? how can that affect the global economy? >> let me start with your first question pertaining to the absence of xi and putin. i think it is important to emphasize the g20 is a prime contributor to the solution of global challenges. we see it as the premier organization that on a global basis is

guest: we need political leadership from the present because we need both houses of congress to support it. we have a bipartisan group of senators supporting a bipartisan group of represented that would have supported it. but when biden made his state of the union speech, it fell apart. i would like my preferred example. there is $20 trillion -- $20 billion worth of buildings the federal government owns that we don't use. we spend i'm told billion dollars every year maintaining this $20 billion worth of real estate that we don't use. let's sell a little bit of that, 1.5 trillion of that. let's sell it and put it to this account in order to have growth. we've got a lot of unused assets. there might be another way to do it but that's why you need the president to come in and say i'll sign it into law if you do this. host: so speaker kevin mccarthy announced he's assembling a commission to look at potential cuts in the entire federal budget. do you think that's where leadership could come from? what your prediction for that? guest: i can promise you what that whatever he proposes, presiden

house, but about everything in turn. capitol hill, here it all started with a scandalous report in the western press. the speaker of the us house of representatives, mccarthy, apparently refused zelsky to speak before congressue to the busyness of lawmakers. and the price of the question is 24 billion dollars, which the united states promised to allocate to ukraine. however, our experts say that mccarthy's demarche did not actually happen. zelsky was not going to be given the floor before both houses of congress. yes, the schedule. in general, president zelenskyi was not built, the task was different, the communication was behind the scenes and to convince the republicans and democrats. at the same time, it is known that there are many skeptics in the republican camp regarding ukrainian support, especially in the context of the upcoming elections, and tension was literally felt in the air. but in the end, zelensky met with the speaker of the house of representatives and the leaders of both parties. it is said that he warned american politicians about the danger of procrastination, saying that ukrainian victory is at stake, the result, despite the disagreement, the congress can still approve additional fundi

of the republicans, this year they decided not to arrange zelensky’s speech in front of both houses of congress could turn out in such and such a mood. as a result, the ukrainian guest will meet with some congressmen, leaders of the chambers, even this conversation is unlikely to be pleasant for him. the speaker of the house of representatives, kevin mccarthy, for example, flatly refused to guarantee in the department of new funds to ukraine zelensky that he was elected congress is he our president? i’m not going to promise him anything. i have questions about where the reporting is for the money we’ve already spent. what is the plan for achieving victory, i think, this is what the american society wants to know, did cnn just show that the american society, more of it , has already found out for themselves? 55% of those surveyed said that the united states should no longer help ukraine and this, of course, is bad news for zelensky , the white house is still pretending that everything is fine. but if this continues, it will be under pressure. public opinion. before the election , biden's politic

needed to help ukraine resist russian aggression in the house, not in the house of representatives, in general in the congressincludes the house of representatives, as the lower the house, they say no, it's too much, let's put 6 billion there, let's invest money , well, uncertain chances for this budget, even for these 6 billion for ukraine, as in the end and the interim budget itself, because of the position of some republicans who... very often are associated with donald trump, for example, the speaker of the house of representatives of the us congress, kevin mccarthy opposes this initiative , including including 6 billion. that is, he is not against 24, even against 6 billion in general, and let's listen to how he motivates his point of view, speaker of the house of representatives of the lower house of the us congress. why can't we deal with the border and our emergencies? ukraine already has money, they have enough money to last the next 45 days, but why does this take priority over what is happening on border, why does it take precedence over american families who are losing loved ones in america every

we are facing a dangerous situation with one small faction of one house of congress willing to hold the economy and workers and families hostage in order to extract unpopular and counterproductive cuts to important programs. those are all big risks but they administration understands that the biggest risk is failing to invest in people, failing to invest in workers, failing to allow workers to organize and band together to demand their fair share. what that means for the longer-term or even medium-term, will workers see their wages rise at the end of this inflation? or will we go back to profits? i don't think that's the record to head. jon: the president today acknowledged auto companies doing well, telling the strikers you should be doing just as well. how much of uaw message does president want to be a part of when other consideration is on corporate strategy being impacted by the uaw calling out for the big stock buybacks we have seen in the case of automakers. do you think the president's ok being part of that message as well? guest: i think the president has been pretty clear brou

united states is preparing to impeach the current president by the speaker of the house of representatives of congressvin mccarthy is organizing a special investigation. vo will be headed by representatives of three parliamentary committees at once, the main accusation against the republicans is that the american leader lied to voters when he said that he did not know about his business deal son hunter and other family members. biden. they received tens of millions of dollars through shell companies, including the ukrainian energy company burizm, in which the politician’s son was listed. the example of poland has sent the european commission an ultimatum to extend the ban on the import of grain from ukraine, we will quote unambiguous demands or you will extend the ban on the import of ukrainian grain on september 15. or we ourselves will extend this ban. the polish regime is defiantly focusing on protecting the interests of local farmers. but here we must remember that there is only a month left of the general elections in the country and every vote counts. in fact. nothing hit polish farmers more pai

of what is going on. what congress said in 1977 there could be a single house veto of a presidential reorganization. what was held in that case was the single house veto. they said youp can't do it with a single house veto but go with both houses of congress. it has been misinterpreted to people that i'm running to occupy that stops the u.s. president from acting unilaterally. the truth of the matter is those provisions that require that the u.s. president to seek congressional consent, those provisions had deadlines but the unexpired provisions that are still good on the books are the ones that mandates the u.s. president the efficient running of government from time to time. [applause] now i'm going to get into the specifics of how this actually works. what agencies are we actually going to shut down and how. the final real myth here that i think we have to pay attention to is this idea that the administrative state as we know it is somehow an impartial scientific management project that is able to take on what we the people can't be trusted with. this is what is actually at stake here. it is a ske

the impeachment of biden, the beginning, the chairman of the oversight committee of the lower house of congressmmer, has finally completed the investigation of personal commercial projects joe biden. biden and their accomplices created more than twenty shell companies, earned more than $20 million between 2014 and 2019. when joe biden was vice president, nine members of the president's family participated in these shady business schemes and benefited from them. the basic scheme is simple - a meeting with then us vice president biden to discuss the price of the issue and fulfill one or another request of the chinese or ukrainian partners. what was biden selling to make all this money? joe biden is a brand, and at least two dozen times he has met with business partners, sending signals about access, influence and power of those. when a delicate situation arose with an inspection by the prosecutor general's office of the ukrainian gas production company burisma, where biden worked, joe personally blackmailed barack obama. they tell me: you do not have such powers. you are not barack obama. the pre

he was given the start in person in the lower house of congress. house republican speakers have received serious and credible information to raise allegations against president biden of abuse of power and corruption. that's why i'm directing an impeachment investigation into president joe biden to be launched by the three house judiciary oversight and budget committees, confident they have gathered there is enough evidence of family corruption of the bidens, who traded the influence of the us vice president around the world. i will become your peacemaker. i am the only candidate who will keep his promise. i can prevent the third world war that we are approaching. as soon as i walk into the oval office after winning the election. and i will stop this terrible war between russia and ukraine. with me, it would never have started so that trump would never return to the oval office ; the special prosecutor would never again deal with it. jake smith is still in court the prosecutor's task has not yet started to ensure that the accused. special counsel jac

for official ratification >>> with only days to keep the government funded, tuesday saw both houses of congress taking action to try to break the impasse. for more on this we go to drew petramoix in washington. good morning we know if congress doesn't act by midnight sunday the government does shut down. what's the latest? >> reporter: well, good morning, jessica, both the senate and house are trying to break the government funding logjam, but both chambers plans faice likel opposition the nsenate introduced a bill bt it will likely be a non-starter in the house because it includes provisions that face staunch disfavor the house finally agreed to begin debate on a package of bills after they were blocked by hard-line members of the republican party last week the bills contain spending cuts demanded by many gop hard lynn liners meanwhile house speaker mccarthy questioned why president biden isn't involved in the government funding negotiations >> i will continue to move through our process. we're getting ours done, sending it over to the senate. but i think the best way here is for the president

joe biden announced this to the speaker of the lower house of congress, he clarified that the case is is connected with abuse of power , corruption and obstruction of justice, although there are investigations. we have established that president biden, indeed, is an angle to the american people, as if he did not know his family's foreign transactions, eyewitnesses confirmed that the president repeatedly participated in telephone conversations. he communicated and met at the table with his son’s business partners. from bank records it follows that almost 20 million dollars were transferred to the accounts of a member of the biden family and persons connected to them through various shell companies in the white house ; this initiative of the republicans has already been called extremist. let's take a minute, new reports about the victims of the flood come from libya. according to the latest data, the death toll is already about six thousand people , 10,000 are listed as missing. hurricane. daniel hit the east line of libya last sunday the situation in the country is called catastrophic,

called ukraine well, the regime that is drowning in the usa, apparently this is both in both houses of congresss happening now on the site of the general snot. this is where our delegation works. unfortunately, i don't see it got there. one of the five works as victor. this is apparently cooling. yes, and of course, in many ways , the kiev puppet regime, which is accustomed, so to speak, to the fact that the puppeteers are in command , is confused by the collective west, in turn, is not hiding its own. let's say disappointment with our wards in kiev, they turned out to be unable to solve the task that was set to wear down without bloodshed and defeat russia russia is winning everywhere russia is shoulder to shoulder coordinated and now our national economy has united. our national is ours. sorry, social policy, our actions in the fields of ours, all this indicates that no contrast will pass the ukrainian regime, sooner rather than later. you will lose all your allies. uh. and what will they say there, biden, the scholz are not really like strebuns. and the trend will be victorious behind us. tr

congress since the beginning of this war. if you look at the debate in congress, there are bipartisan majorities in both houses of congress that support continued aid to ukraine. now look, there's a process that we have to go through and work with congress. i believe that it was important that president zelensky was able to come to the capitalist hill last week and talk directly with members of congress about what is happening in ukraine. we were able to talk to congress about the accountability mechanisms we put in place to help. we're providing, we've heard what they want to hear about accountability, we have accountability mechanisms in place and we're happy to talk about what those look like, so we think it's important that congress continue to show a determination to leave. of ukraine, so that it continues to restrain and repulse the russian one aggression, to make it clear to congress that we are not going to leave ukraine , we are not going to stand by when countries try to intimidate their neighbors, that is an important message that we have sent from this administration, we are glad that congress will support ukraine

mccarthy organized the coldest possible reception for zelensky, last year, for his sake, both houses of congressons of dollars for the meeting after their requests, the applicant for new transji is forced to voice behind closed doors zelensky that he was elected to congress. he is our president. i'm not going to promise anything. i have questions for him, where is the report on the money that has already been spent on him. what is his plan to achieve victory? i think the american public wants get answers to these questions. one thing is for society, and another is dibate, either as the reincarnation of the nicaraguan dictator anastasia samosa, or as the reincarnation of the vietnamese dictator, he will be the ding-zema of zelensky, almost his girlfriends in the senate are introducing the plenipotentiaries of the american deep state the leader of the democrats is sumerian and the leader of the republicans is macon im between them , biologists are almost 154 years old. the prospects are approximately clear ; they are trying to keep up with the financial ones. and this is one of the reasons. why we

mitch makonal biden is the same age and longtime friend in the upper house of congress for 35 years,do you think about re-election in 2026, what do i think about, and re-election in 2026. the kentucky senator went silent for 30 seconds and was pulled out of his stupor by his aide. did you hear the question from the senator? be re-elected in 2026. so i'm sorry, but we need to wait a minute at the makonal. this is already the second case in recent times . previously , sports colleagues came to the rescue. the negotiations went well. the senator's entourage attributes everything to the fact that in the spring the elderly politician fell, broke his rib and hit his head hard with a concussion. there is a recovery going on right now and let all of america wait we don't serve them. it is they who serve us we choose them, if they are not able to work, why are they needed, if the makkonal sword is like this every day, who does his affairs his staff? will a simple secretary manage the american state to tempt fate? voters do not want to be burdened by a proven frame according to the latest wall

example , the day before yesterday, what the leader of the republicans said in in the lower house of the american congresse house of representatives, kevin mccarthy, we are watching and listening to my question, where is the report on spending money that we have already allocated to ukraine , what is the plan for achieving victory, i think this is what the american public wants to know, listen to what russia did when it invaded ukraine. it is wrong and we want it to end, but i also want the american taxpayers to know what their money is being spent on, well, but now i repeat them, and the fact that the majority in the senate is the upper house of the american congress in joe biden will be in the white house for at least another year, at least a year, and they all say that support should be continued. well, let's see what the secretary of state of the united states of america, anthony blinken, said the day before on nbc's today program, answering the host's questions. about whether it might be difficult for volodymyr zelenskyi to convince those american congressmen who doubt mr. anthony blinkens said blunt

of congress. almost half of it is for armaments. on thursday the american president is meeting with zelensky at the white house and for sure he wouldrospect of new tranches, but the republicans seem to no longer want to share. the first thing i want to say is that the chamber now has no money for ukraine, it simply does not exist, that is, support. - this is not and frankly speaking, we have a budget deficit of two trillion dollars, the money that we give to ukraine we have to take away from our future is a fact, you can think about it any way you like, but this is reality. so not now the best time for his visit, frankly speaking, what is happening in ukraine is a failure of biden’s policy. we need to be aware of this and we shouldn’t put all this on the shoulders of ordinary americans. because of the dissatisfaction of the republicans, this year they decided not to arrange zelensky’s speech in front of both houses of congress. it is still unknown how it could turn out in such and such a mood. as a result, the ukrainian guest will meet with congressmen and chamber leaders, but even this conversation is unlikely to be pleasant for h

goetz amendment, i will remind you, it was a complete ban, supported by 93 members of the lower house of congress, 339 voted against, that is, in fact, it is 1/4 and 3/4 of the hall, and among those who voted against, it’s not only the democrats, half of them, it’s actually half of the republican faction , people are moderate, people who don’t want to support it, or for example, they rejected congressman bix’s proposal, his restrictions, restrictions on the allocation of money for ukraine, supported 104 congressmen, 330 they voted against, look, the same trend, again 1/4 and 3/4, well, if we talk about trends, there are basically two of them, on the one hand, the skeptics increased, let's be frank, because before such radical proposals were voted for 60, 70, sometimes 82, 84 congressmen, now for the first time we have the number 104, but on the other hand, we see an absolutely real, absolutely clear trend that even a large part of... the republican party does not agree to engage in this rhetoric, rhetoric about limitation of aid to ukraine, in this pre-election period america first rhetoric , as

people necessary to override the president's veto is d from three fourths t two thirds of each house of congress. imagine how hard it would be to override a veto with three quarters. the amendment process isinally specified. two thirds of the state legislates can ask for a convention. picking up on that early suggestion. and wilson and this is really important. article five says that an amendment can never deny a state eql represents in the senate without that state's consent. 's an unimaginable ovion of the constitution. law students love having late night dorm debates about whether or not an unmanned apple constitutional provision is itself a violation of the people's natural right to alter and abolish government and americans tution whenever they want. but let's save that for another wonk session. now let's go wonk out. and also inspire ourselves patriotically by returning to the text and seeing the final tweaks in the very last draft of the u.s. constitution. so here's the very final draft of the u.s. constitution and a couple crucial changes made at the last minute. we've already talked abo

tropora of the motorcade, sounded very optimistic and predicted that it would be the same as with the f-16 planes, and today nbc news, referring to three sources in the white house and congress, writes that biden is promised zelensky in a private conversation a small batch of these long-range missiles, the delay is said to be that they are discussing the type and exact number of missiles because, as they say in the pentagon, there are not so many of these missiles in their warehouses, and whether additional funding for ukraine until 2024 billion, which was also discussed , will be voted in the plot, it will be shown only next week, and this issue is very complicated, much more complicated than the issue of ukraine, because ukraine is only one item of expenditure , part of the general budget, to which, in general, a there is no understanding and we can only observe, because if there is no budget by the end of september, there will be a shutdown, a shutdown is when in the united states all state institutions are closed except for those that work for national security. aid to ukraine and one more issue that was not included in the report and somehow we just saw that the day bef

get their hands on during the impeachment investigation, he was given the start in the lower house of congressn the house of representatives received serious and credible information to bring charges against president biden. we are talking about abuse of power and corruption. that's why i'm directing three house judiciary and budget committees to launch impeachment investigations into president joe biden and believe they have ample evidence of family corruption. bidens who traded influence. as vice president of the united states around the world, i will become your peacemaker. i am the only candidate who will keep his promise. i can prevent the third world war that we are approaching. as soon as i walk into the oval office after winning the election. and i will stop this terrible war between russia and ukraine. with me, it would never have started so that trump would never return to the oval office again . special prosecutor jake smith is involved while the trial in court has not yet started. the prosecutor’s task is to do so that the accused remains silent, special prosecutor jack smith has d

atop it, very dramatic and moving remembrance is flooded from both sides of the aisle and both houses of congress, as lawmakers remembered feinstein as an inspiring fashion trailblazer and pioneer for women, she was a historic figure, trailblazer for women and a great friend. >> diane made her mark on everything from national security to the environment to gun safety to protecting civil liberties. country is going to miss her dearly. >> i speak on behalf of all of us when i say that it is with profound sadness that we bid farewell to my dear friend colleague. and outright champion for the state of california, senator dianne feinstein. >> mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent that all present in the chamber, as well as members and staff throughout the capitol to please rise for a moment of silence and remembrance of the late honorable senator dianne feinstein. flags capitol were lowered to half staff, as were flags at city buildings in san francisco, los angeles and throughout california. >> people who worked alongside senator dianne feinstein are remembering her tonight as a colleague and a friend

this provision to members of congress, which is what people were thinking about most of the time, it is clear how that is going to happen because the constitution also says the houses of congress shall be the judge of qualifications of their members. you can see how that works. southern representatives might present their conditionals and the house will refuse to seat them because they say we have decided to be sick and -- because you taken oath to protect the constitution and in you did an extraction. it looks much to me like any other qualification for becoming president. natural born citizens, 35 years of age, how do those get enforced? you do not need a conviction per year if you do need some type of proof. probably it will be done by whoever enforces ballot qualifications which usually i think would be the secretary of state of the state's. host: what do you think of the efforts to apply this to donald trump in 2024? guest: i think there's a strong case constitutionally. there are different questions we need to separate. one is as a matter of fact, did he do things that bring him within the scope of this constitutional provision? i think the answer to that is

we today maksym and i mentioned the bill, which has already been approved, passed both houses of congressed by republicans and democrats about the navy and the military forces of the united states and its partners in order to well, i think that here it is more about partners to personally create a combat group in the black sea. so i also think that the issue of the black sea is because there is a doctrinal mantra that was written in the 34th year . the state and organize the ships of the countries that are already on the black sea side should become part of this headquarters, what is the problem , only we will have a headquarters that will hear the russian federation, do we live here ? built into the interests of the united states of america, for example, in the black sea. please, i will tell you that they are austin who said a long time ago that last year, when the first missiles arrived in hungary, what he said then ironically in anglo-saxon , the united states of america will not hold back the development of long-range weapons translation from the diplomatic point of view, they repeate

the election, and there was a shantytown too, when the democrats had a majority in the lower house of congress , we write off the bad , we don't write off the bad, here today, she died. a senator from the democratic party , it was a long time ago, and they lost the majority, and this is what is important, put three dots, another nighttime massive shelling of a terrorist country, unfortunately, there are hits, in particular reports that there are flights in the vinnytsia region, the kaliniv city council writes about this, as well as the head of ova vinnytsia, serhiy borzov, notes that there is a flight over the infrastructure object, all emergency services are already working on the spot, according to preliminary information, there were no victims and victims. in addition , explosions were also heard in kramatorsk, in the cherkasy region , our anti-aircraft forces were working . as of now, the airspace of ukraine is clear, no enemy aircraft have been detected. chevrons approaching victory. for the period full-scale war, we felt the full depth and power of the concept of a peaceful sky, we reali

this statement was made by the committee on oversight and accountability of the house of representatives of congress in his family's influence peddling and that the baidan family was sold to earn millions. this is because according to testimony, joe biden was a brand that was used to send signals of influence and power. and this enriched biden’s family; lawmakers emphasized that they would continue to seek transparency in the issue of biden’s abuse of his official position on the eve of the speaker of the house of representatives of congress. kevin mccarthy instructed the committees. launch an official investigation if they prove the head of state is involved in corruption schemes to be voted on, the question of impeachment will inevitably be raised. in a literal sense , the italian island of lampedusa experienced an influx of immigrants from african countries in the middle east during the day; in just one day, more than 110 boats arrived on its shores, which in total brought over 5,000 people, which became an absolute record. it is not clear what to do with people in a temporary detention center de

as according to the keel institutes for the world economy, the white house of congress to tech, an extra, the extra spending for ukraine onto a us government. continuing resolution to house republicans have voice the intentions to reduce funding. took you lensky is not the governor of the 50 for state, but he does have to buy new spock it. he swipe and spock, it. the least he could do was put in his suit and the tie while he demands or money . but i was still don't know, i don't feel comfortable sending in all the dollar to ukraine. the problem is, do you know if you're creating his weight in the way in ukraine right now? because i don't, i don't think most members of congress know whether the ukrainians are actually within the war. now this comes as the us national debt has the passed a record high, a $353.00 trillion dollar mode. and that's a 2 trillion dollar increase over the last year. so the unlikely rachel, we will discuss this with us. he's a financial experts and contribute to a present that we haven't even, we've seen nothing yet. i need for you today. i've just been looking wi

it is just hours away. commerce and the latest development is that one of the houses of the us congress, the us house of representatives, did ultimately pass a 45 day extension of the u. s. federal budget to many however, this extension does not include funding or ukraine. and apparently it was quite a battle if you look at what happened in the lead up to the vote. and in fact, democratic congressman from new york, jamal bowman apparently pulled the fire alarm jones for the us capital building in the hopes of getting the building evacuated, and preventing the passing of a bill that did not include ukraine funding. now the bill has passed the us house of representatives take, but it still remains for the senate to approve this 45 day extension of congressional spending. that does not include money for ukraine. here's how marjorie taylor green, a conservative member of congress, a member of the house of representative who has been critical of the continued us funding of the war. this is how she has reacted to today is, is that the crate is not 51st day. joe biden treats you claim like it'

that fight comes around. >> at the beginning of the 118th congress, we're not defaulting and we're not shutting down. it will be tough because of this house majority that's so narrow and a new speaker that doesn't have an iron grip on his caucus. some would shut down and be isolationists but i felt confident we would avert a shutdown and we have. i feel confident in the vote counting on ukraine. and kevin mccarthy has a very tough job over there. he has said after the visit by president zelenskyy last week, he has said that we want to stand behind ukraine. so when you have all four leaders in both houses saying, we're going to be strong for ukraine, are there some loud voices? yes. we are going to figure out a way to make this happen. the global coalition that wouldn't have been assembled without joe biden in america's leadership, we've got to keep them with linked arms backing democracies against authoritarians. and i feel confident that we'll do that. there will be some twists and turns. this is congress but i feel confident we'll get there. >> it's a centerpiece with what the president has been talking about. the fight in ukraine, it i

house republicans seem to be in the midst of a civil war. it's a civil war that is hurting the ability of the congress to do the business of the american peoplend to solve is problems on behalf of everyday americans. and what's happening is that house republicans continue to be held captive by the most extreme elements of their conference, and it's hurting the american people. and this is a serious matter. we are less than eight days away from the government shutting down. why are we in this position? it's because republicans have chosen to walk away from a bipartisan agreement that they themselves negotiated. and more than 300 members of the united states house of representatives supported. with a strong bipartisan majority in the senate, signed into law by president biden. why are the american people facing down another manufactured g.o.p. crisis? they need to end their civil war because it's hurting the american people. i'm not saying they all have to like each other. but we should be able to figure out a way to get the business of the american people done. a reckless republican shutdown will hurt seniors. it will hurt children. it will hu

the republicans , this year they decided not to arrange zelensky’s speech in front of both houses of congressn out in such and such a mood. as a result, the ukrainian guest will meet with some congressmen , even the leaders of the chambers. this conversation is unlikely to be pleasant for him. speaker of the house of representatives kevin mccarthy, for example, flatly refused to guarantee the allocation of new funds to ukraine from zealand zelinsky, who elected congress. is he our president? i'm not going to promise him anything. i have questions for him, where is the reporting for the money that we have already spent. what is the plan to achieve victory i think, that's what is american the public wants to know, but the cnn television company simply showed that the american society , most of it, has already found out for themselves. 55% of respondents said that the united states should no longer help ukraine and this, of course, is bad news for zelensky. the white house is still pretending that everything fine. but if this continues, it will be under the pressure of public opinion. before the

. >> i'm pleased that there has been bipartisan support in both houses of congress for ukraine. and i feel confident that we'll be able to make sure that we have funding. we continue to stand behind ukraine for as long as is necessary. >> we're supposed to be defending the united states of america. putting american workers and prosperity first. they have been dead wrong for decades, they learned nothing from iraq or afghanistan and now they are doing it in ukraine. >> two leaders who will not president china president xi and russia's president putin. >> carley: a lot going on. president biden is holding a rally in south dakota, he is expected to receive a 2024 presidential endorsement from kristi noem, fuelling rumors trump could be considering kristi noem to be his running mate and she seems open to the idea. >> i think anybody should consider it, especially now when you watch what is happening across this country. all it takes for evil to succeed is good men to do nothing. we have people who say politics is ugly and divisive, how will you feel in 10 years when this country is

our speaker, this team and more importantly all of the members of the house republican congress. we get the job done and we deliver on behalf of the american people, keeping the government opened and importantly continuing the appropriations process to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars despite house democrats attempts to delay, obstruct, and even pull the fire alarm to stop the important vote from happening. we continue to stand up on behalf of the american people. despite being underestimated every week, we will continue to get the job done on behalf of constituents across america. i will turn it back to speaker of the house kevin mccarthy. speaker mccarthy: i was really appalled watching the democrats actions today. to delay it to get to a shutdown. so, when we found that an individual elected to congress would fall a fire alarm, that is a new low. we watched how people have been treated if they do something wrong in this capital that's capitol. it will be interesting to see how he is treated. with that, i look forward to your very open and optimistic questions you have bee
