house speaker, kevin mccarthy has sat down with taiwanese president sy in when near los angeles. it's a move that has drawn threats of retaliation from china as well as mccarthy it's. i also met a group of more than a dozen members of congress from both parties. china sees the meeting as a show of support for tie one's independence and a violation of the one china principal. an official at china is embassy in washington. dc said it could lead to another series confrontation in the us china relationship. while the foreign ministry said it would resolutely defend at chinese sovereignty. taiwan said on wednesday it had detected 14 chinese military plains and 3 military vessels near the island. sy has just returned from a trip to central america, where she was visiting country like quasi, marla and belize, to have tie ones, few remaining diplomatic partners in the region. last month on, do i switched it's ties from taiwan to china? well, as you're saying, this is the most high profile meeting between the taiwanese leader and american to take place inside the united states itself is w

kevin mccarthy voted for all 3 of them. when we got to the democratic presidents, all of a sudden they were a lot less bipartisan, i think that's, that's kind of the point that i would make. it's true. you can find individual members, you can call the poxy, right? not wrong to do it but, but the, but there's a big difference here that when it comes to be a democratic president, you get to see stuff where they say, i mean, democrat, didn't say for instance, under president trump, we will only consider our opening bid is for you to, i don't know, do you medicare for all and raise the minimum weight. you know, they didn't say this is our opening bed. they, you know, they did buy parson, increase and entry had individual members who might a push, but i think there's, there's kind of a kind difference going on here. it doesn't take well, you know, when incisive political scientist to look at governance in the united states is being divisive in fraud. and when you, sir, roll that into a scenario where if congress cannot pass an i

which is why the meeting between sign when and us house speaker, kevin mccarthy. the 2nd in line to the us presidency assumes so much significance. it was historic for another reason as well. the 1st such meeting on us soil since $979.00. but yeah, when washington switched diplomatic recognition from ty pay to beijing, saying when was on her way back from central america when she made this strategic stop over in california, she was welcomed by us half because kevin mccarthy, despite china's explicit warning that the meeting should not take place, but the peer use that talks to present a united front against asians increasingly aggressive military posturing. the friendship between the people of taiwan and america as a matter of profound importance to the free world. and it is critical to maintain equally ami freedom, peace and regional stability. they also discussed speeding up arms deliveries from the us to taiwan and highlighted the threats the island faces. the person, an unwavering support. reassure the people of taiwan that we are not isolated. as we are not h

so president jogging, when is said to meet with kevin mccarthy during her trip to the americas. as you well know, could this meeting have something to do with china's ration provocations? well, you know, actually that's how local media here in taipei lay interpret china latest and merit her in move. and before a tie in, when time was preston, she doesn't add to the u as in central america. china has already made it clear that if tie needs with kevin mccarthy and beijing would definitely retaliate. and, and that's also why on a timeline, media and people here a link, china's reaction to the it's, you know, dry, it's military or drawn and it's jazz flying close to the or even cross the border again. that was, she had sion yay dw corresponded in taipei, in pakistan, at least 11 women and children have been killed in a crush as people gathered to receive free handouts of food and money. the incident happened outside a factory in karachi during the islamic holy month of ramadan. business owners often handout donations especially to the poor, but with pakistan seeing surging food pric

kevin mccarthy wanted to travel to taiwan himself. clearly there was some pushback from taiwan to hold this somewhere else. california was chosen. more or less neutral ground, far from washington, d.c., but still, china has made its anchor -- has been very vocal about its anger ever since the past couple of weeks that we have heard the rumblings of this meeting potentially happening. it has made threats. it said that this could lead to confrontation. the chinese consute here in los angeles said this meeting was absolutely not conducive to peace or to regional stability and security. no sign of any changes on the ground right now except for this morning, the taiwanese defense ministry did spot a group of chinese aircraft carriers sailing south of taiwan, but apparently they were on their way to the western pacific to carry out military drills there. >> thank you very much indeed for filling in the gaps. china angry at what is taking place, but say england -- tsai ing-wen seeing it as a ringing endorsement. and joe biden committed to de

kevin mccarthy has the title that's why it's so terrifying. she got so worked up and hurled that nonsense at me because i had pointed out right before her that they have now become the party that doesn't back the blue, they back the coup and i walked secretary mayorkas through marjorie taylor greene and donald trump's various statements about defunding the police and defunding the fbi of course, that was her response it was interesting, though, that she was ultimately muted by her own chairman, who she would also go on to attack later on that day as a rino. it's complete chaos. what is it like to be there? like working every day in the land of misfit toys. we are as democrats working for working people trying to make sure that our kids go home safely after school and are free from gun violence, that we bring down the cost of health care and that we tackle climate chaos. but as you can see, they have one third of government essentially right now, and they can do some damage >> do some damage, but also stop any actual work getting done the thing

house speaker kevin mccarthy.efense ministry says it also detected 14 chinese military aircraft and three navy vessels in areas near the island. it was seen as an early sign of what beijing described as a resolute measure in protest of the meeting. global news, 24 hours a day. on air and on bloomberg quicktake, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in over 120 countries. i am paul allen. this is bloomberg. haidi: china has warned that the taiwan issue is a redline. hours after the islands president met the house speaker in california, kevin mccarthy told us more about why he hosted them despite warnings from beijing of resolute measures in response. >> if we want to make sure that we foster democracy and peace and make sure that we do not get into any type of conflict, people need to sit down. what china needs to understand is that they cannot dictate who a speaker of the house can meet with. for the same moment that emmanuel macron is sitting with president xi jinping, i think that's great. i would s

kevin mccarthy is a liar, was under dr.arlsen and that's all , he's the most dishonest human being. i wouldn't even deal with kevin mccarthy will lie, cheat and steal. host: are you saying the president should not negotiate? caller: absolutely not. the president has character. kevin mccarthy has donald trump. host: let's get more of your thoughts. dial in and let us know what you think will happen next year over the debt ceiling. should it be a clean bill like democrats are asking for? this is the story that came out yesterday. the gop's plan would kill 780,000 jobs. moody's analytics impaired the impact of the proposal on the federal economy with the alternative of a clean debt ceiling favored by president biden. the firm founded for public and secured all of their desired cuts the nation would be closer to a recession. under the legislation, gdp growth is that employment inclines in the first three quarters of 2024 wrote in a report a clean debt limit scenario by year-end 2024 employment is 780,000 jobs lower. they found

maria: liz peek the republicans are not suggesting to default on debt kevin mccarthy made that very clearrday but he wants a real conversation about getting our financial house in order. >>. liz: we should have that conversation the fact joe biden hasn't even returned mccarthy's phone calls childesh they're not going to win this i don't know what she was talking about certainly didn't answer the question whether they would raise this limit unilaterally i don't believe they can do that maria. nor should they. remember in union verse long, long ago joe biden ran for president on basis that he could work across the aisle was guy that could sit down, with republicans, and get things done? whatever happened to that? the people the voting people in this country, are not going to allow this to happen. they want spending curtailed they don't want to see our debt spiral out of control. as it has been, the message has to be, we had an emergency, we spent a lot of money because of that emergency, the emergency, is over. even joe biden acknowledges that it is observer we've got to go back to normal s

meanwhile, house republicans and kevin mccarthy or arguing that this has to include spending cuts. we expect that in upcoming days they're going to unveil with legislative text their plan to increase the debt ceiling for one year. but mccarthy's speech today in new york is really about trying to pressure the white house to come to the negotiating table. kevin mccarthy has not spoken to the president about this issue since they met. several weeks ago. this also comes as there is no certainty about what that drop dead deadline is for a debt ceiling increase up here on capitol hill. so a lot of moving parts here, but this is really setting the stage for mccarthy to try to pressure his conference to get behind. one plan to increase the debt ceiling while also trying to prove to the white house. we have a republican plan. now mr president. what is your plan going to be sarah? alright lauren fox there for us on capitol hill. this economists say it is a big freaking deal because it could mean the loss of jobs if they don't sort this out the technical economic term for it, actually freaking

here's kevin mccarthy responding to warnings from china of escalating tensions.need for retaliation. but the one thing i would say to china too, at no time, i am the speaker of the house. there is no place that china is going to tell me where i can go or who i can speak to, whether you be foe or whether you be friend. earlier, i spoke to our correspondent shaimaa khalil in tokyo who has been closely following events and i asked her what taiwan reacting. the warships in taiwan are closely monitoring the chinese aircraft carrier which has passed through taiwanese south—eastern waters. we understand radars and chinese warships are as close as 5—6 nautical miles and we understand from the taiwan defence ministry that the aircraft carrier has passed through a strait between taiwan and the philippines and went into south—eastern taiwanese waters. we heard from the time in his defence minister who said while the aircraft carrier is in training, the timing of its presence in that area is quite sensitive and of course the timing is referring to is the meeting between the

house speaker kevin mccarthy told fox laura ingraham it's time with new economic policy with china. continue to enjoy most favored nation in status in trade with the united states, why? >> one they should not. i mean, we've watched what the past administration, president trump had been able to accomplish with china, standing up to china. china was begging to talk to america. maria: this is a question that i've asked several times in the last several weeks, mark, that, you know, we have this massive trade deficit. when is corn going to move to start keeping china to account, all we hear, we don't look for conflict, we don't seek conflict with china, they are bringing conflict, do something about it. mark: china has a vision, they have their hundred-year plan and 5 to 10-year plan is to overtake us as the world's military superpower and the world's economic superpower and the number one enabler has been the united states of america. we have enabled them through crappy trade deals, donald trump was the first one to actually stand up to them with a spine. he -- we went from having a gre

here's what house speaker kevin mccarthy said. about that relationship.he friendship between the people of taiwan and america as a matter of profound importance to the free world. and it is critical to maintain economic freedom. peace. and regional stability. and one of the most interesting questions that mccarthy got at his press conference was if he had any plans to go to taiwan, he said there were no immediate plans. but again if he went, it would be on a bipartisan basis again, highlighting the fact that this is something that the united states government is united on, despite the fact there's a lot of domestic issues that lawmakers on capitol hill fight about all the time. john about all the time, but not now. nancy pelosi put out a statement with the nicest words i think i've ever heard her say about kevin mccarthy after this meeting, so there is really bipartisan support for this lauren fox on capitol hill. as always, thanks so much for your reporting, sarah. former vice president mike pence, will share details of his direct conversations with form

kevin mccarthy telling reporters that the two nations held a shared belief, as he put it, in democracydship was "a matter of profound importance to the free world." china, of course, will not be relishing that sort of exchange of pleasantries. it had warned earlier that the us was "playing with fire," as it put it, by welcoming president tsai in this way. yeah, david, in the last few minutes, there have been some comments coming through from beijing, according to the reuters and afp newswares. just tell our audiences what has been said. china says it will take resolute and effective measures to safeguard national sovereignty, territorial integrity. we've heard this sort of thing before, david, in the lead—up to this visit. beijing was very unhappy that it was taking place and i imagine even more unhappy that it's gone ahead. yes, i think so, karishma, although, having said that, this is seen as less provocative than perhaps nancy pelosi's visit to taiwan was perceived by the chinese last year. that was met with a flurry of indignation on the part of the chinese leadership, and of cours

kevin mccarthy's position makes him number three in the u.s. political hierarchy and the most senior figure to meet a taiwanese authority since 1987. beijing claims taiwan as its own as resents -- and resents what it sees as u.s. meddling. at the end of the talks, they gave these statements. >> taiwan is a successful democracy, a thriving economy, and a global leader in health and science. and whether it is our deep commercial ties, strong people to people relationships, or shared values, our cooperation with the people of taiwan continues to expand through dialogue and exchange. >> we are stronger when we are together. taiwan strives to be a reliable partner to the world. the cornerstone for stability in the region. and a force for good. >> when former u.s. house speaker pelosi was in taiwan, china launched its largest ever military exercise in waters around taiwan. i asked the china expert if we could expect a similar reaction. >> thank you so much for having me. i don't expect the same degree of chinese reaction. in a way, also the fact that

ask you about the optics you have the president talking to union workers in maryland you had kevin mccarthy talking to wall street on monday do the optics of this matter sure, i guess they matter a little bit politically mccarthy is trying to jolt the markets into understanding his position which he thinks -- i tend to agree with him on this -- they don't understand how intractable the situation is if they did, i would say we're heading closer to a default than we ever have before. i don't know that we will default. i can't predict the future he's trying to get people to understand that he is deadly serious that he's going to demand spending cuts not the spending cuts that he laid out that's an opening gambit but he is not, at this point, standing here today, i've spoken to him many times about this, he's not going to fold on a clean debt ceiling >> it sounds like we're heading into a world of pain in the coming months. >> yeah. >> how will that look on wall street what was wall street's reaction to kevin mccarthy trying to argue his points to them on monday >> he was in front of a friendly
