mchenry: mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent that all members may have five legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks amend include extraneous material on this bill. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. mchenry: mr. speaker, i yield myself such time as i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. mchenry: mr. speaker, i rise in support of h.r. 500, the financial exploitation prevention act. a bipartisan bill that will help combat the financial exploitation of our seniors and other vulnerable adults. i'd like to thank the gentlewoman from missouri, the new chair of the subcommittee on capital markets, mrs. wagner, for her work on this bill. financial exploitation, particularly of seniors and other vulnerable adults, is a serious and growing issue. consider this. a number of -- the number of americans aged 65 and older is projected to nearly double from 52 million in 2018 to 95 million by 2060. at the same time the 65 and older age groups sh

mchenry. >> i yield back. thank you. >> thank you, as i was saying before without objection i would like to enter into the record the closing statements of ranking member mchenry and myself, i would like to thank you so very much, mr. john ray for the time that you've been here today. and the way that you have helped us. with that, i would recognize the ranking member for amendments. >> thank you, madam chair. of course, i want to say thank you to you madam chair, and your team. over the last four years as the ranking member and chair of this committee, there have been times we have worked together and times where we have not. times we have agreed in public and disagreed in private. other times we have done the opposite. i want to thank you for how we have attempted, one another, to treat digital assets and the bipartisan work here. mr. wray, thank you for you and your team. your willingness to participate today in a forthright nature that which we have handled a hearing like this. we know there will be ongoin

mchenry directed all six of the subcommittees to get to work fighting whiteness.committee on housing and insurance will focus on policies for inclusion in the housing industry. how about just housing for american citizens? no, it's got to be race based. di di diity -- diversity and inclusion were the only things listed. mchenry doesn't want to upset maxine waters the ranking democrat on the committee and a partner with a long history of making hateful statements about white people. maxine waters is a racist and an accomplished hater but congressman mchenry wants to placate her and not you. why? we reached out to his office to invite him on the show. he declined. that offer is always open. jeffrey epstein turned up dead in a new york jail cell in 2019. the cameras didn't work and the guards were not there. why would an accused murderer be jeffrey epstein's cell mate. bill gates seemed happy that jeffrey epstein was dead. ghislaine maxwell just offered her opinion about his death. watch this. >> i believe he was murdered. i wondered how it happened. because he was c

look at -- that is mchenry, right. >> it's not just pat africa -- pat mchenry, crane, rosendale, going after eli crane who maybe could be gettable. >> mccarthy helped get him elected. >> the congressional leadership put a lot of money into ads for him but the conversation is they don't trust him and believe that they are the ones who are standing in the way of this and that that is ultimately their end goal. >> is anybody know how to read lips? >> how have we not hired one already? >> it doesn't have to end with these people necessarily all voting for mccarthy as well. it would be helpful to mccarthy if some of them decided to vote present. >> well, that's why the fact that democrat david trone is coming back after having his -- there was a statement put out saying he had a surgery this morning, i heard from a source who said he had the surgery and came back. we got to confirm that, but, you know, the question then will become there's two republicans currently not here, ken buck and wesley hunt. hunt said in a twitter thread this morning that he returned home because of there were comp

. >> mchenry seems to be trying to talk kevin mccarthy down a little bit here. mchenry of course a key ally who made a nominating speech that made it sound like this was a forgone conclusion. >> look at that. >> he looks dejected. look at that. >> compare that to how he walked in there smiling. >> they thought that they had -- i'm sure all you guys were hearing the same things that i was hearing. they thought they were going to get at least three present or one present within one flip or two flips. and any one of those combinations would have worked. manu raju, what are you hearing? >> what they're debate [negotiating right now matt gaetz wants to adjourn this chamber until monday. that is what he's been asking for through the course of this vote. this is according to sources telling me and my colleague. this is a discussion right now in the room. it's not entirely clear why he wants to come back on monday, but that is what he's been pushing for. that's why he voted present here. perhaps his vote may change on monday. it's really unclear, but that is what's caus

and as this congress rolls on i think you'll see mchenry in the background there as one of mccarthy's key guys. >> certainly that was a pivotal position for the person who got this 14th round nominations. >> and he did sole jor on through a couple of jokes as he admitted but just did not play so well in the room as many -- >> he had the self-awareinness realize. >> we'll see if this is indeed the final round of voting. and we will see -- >> all right, so we're about to come up here to mr. biggs. let's listen. >> mccarthy, biggs, biggs, jordan. >> well, there goes my theory. >> okay. >> okay, hold on. let's just listen. boebert is going to come up here. let's listen. >> bishop of georgia, jeffries. bishop of north carolina, mccarthy. jeffries. >> it's going to come to lauren boebert. >> jeffries. boebert, present. >> present, there you go. that's your first -- >> you hear the round of applause. >> this was going to be the play -- this was the play that was established when nancy pelosi ran under similar circumstances, not this kind of thing but she had a very small margin in the house

the man who was nominated by the rebels talking to patrick mchenry who is one of kevin mccarthy's key allies, also one of the go teens here. and has been, you know, mentioned as a potential speaker of the house, i mean, for many years but in the context of this. >> mchenry, i believe, gave a silver bowl to kevin mccarthy, an homage to his favorite show "the wire" in which the mayoral character in that gets a bowl full of ex-vcrement and that is the job of being speaker. you have to eat bowl after bowl of this was the reference to that and kevin mccarthy's getting the contents of the bowl, if not the bowl itself yet. >> but, jake, to your point this is an erosion of support for kevin mccarthy. even though it didn't go to donalds and the rebels, it went away from kevin mccarthy and we have all heard, let's be honest, that patrick mchenry has been considered a dark horse to be a potential draftee for speaker. >> now you see tom emmer who ran the house campaign committee and a lot of republicans are furious with him because they thought they would win more seats in the last election. two

so, that is not a name i'm entertaining. >> patrick mchenry? >> not for me.many names that are coming about, patrick mchenry is a great guy. but you'll see many names of all in this because we're showing that we have a menu of people. and maybe patrick mchenry comes to us and tells us, hey, these are really great rules. these are great policies that you're wanting to bring to the floor. maybe he puts the right personnel on the right committees. and maybe he is the guy. maybe it's someone who is not in congress. maybe it's someone like a kevin hern, who is the chairman of the republican study committee, who is actually produced a balanced budget that we want to see go to the floor. i don't know what these names are, but i'm sure you're going to see a lot of names beginning to emerge, because we are showing that we're willing to work to unify the republican party and get the right person. >> okay, sure. and maybe it's going to be me and kim kardashian and anyone else who can be out there. >> sure, will nominate you tomorrow. >> how long are you willing to wait?

patrick mchenry the republican from north carolina has asked them to go out until noon on monday buthen again the first order of business at that point would either be to adjourn or to take that 15th ballot. but they are short right now. so what they probably want to do is take a timeout. you know, this was a pretty intense set of conversations on the floor. the problem is, does kevin mccarthy lose anybody? do you have people not show up? each vote is going to be different. the mathis going to be different if you have different people's dispositions. does wesley hunt have to travel again. how is ken buck's health? you have three other ken bucks. are democrats all there? at some point these levies break and shift. that's why it is algebra when you try to get this speaker vote set up here. so we'll see -- now, keep in mind, they might not go out. if they do not vote to adjourn, they have to immediately go to that 15th ballot. so here in the next 10 or 15 minutes we'll know what's going on but we have to wait until they close this vote trace. >> thank you chad we'll get back to you in m

it's hard to do that except to say, you can see the way mchenry is leaning into him. an active conversation more than a conversation where we are all good. can't wait to hear what your vote is. >> it's giving renaissance painting energy. were you just look at it as a tableau. i do wish we were looking at it in hindsight so we can understand where they were coming out on this. but i'm really eager for them to get back through that alphabet. because, again, this really is the moment where you're watching them try to haggle in realtime -- truly in realtime -- >> we're getting very close to that first round of voting being done. as you can, see with the numbers on the right. kevin mccarthy has been stuck below at 216 or below. jeffries has been getting 212. the others have been at six. we are now at four. president is one vote. we need -- mccarthy needs to get -- 17 is what we believe, based on the math that we're looking at. the important thing we're looking for now -- is buck -- who's going to believe, we believe, for mccarthy. -- then matt, gates who was sitting there

later asked mchenry to raise the rank from cornet to lieutenant. but washington writes, it is not my desire to ask this as a favor. i never have nor never will solicit at anything for myself or connections. but then washington proceeds to write to his factor in philadelphia. clement biddle to purchase fancy uniforms and weaponry for the young wash. so at age 20, while she is an aristocrat, you know, the park and the customs names for much of the 18th century were far more prominent than the washington name before that changed. and he knew cassius that he would inherit a huge part of the estate. martha washington left her death in 1802. washington's death in 1799. and that included about 200 enslaved persons. so as an adult, the the young custis, i say he he reached high. he did. he recovered. he displayed enough vision to create arlington house on a choice hill on the virginia side of the new capital city and he would never really become a great man. i say he he tried once for elective office, but i think he came in fourth in a local race in alexan

i just mentioned patrick mchenry. a key negotiator.rying to lock in support for mccarthy for speaker he just said the house is not going to adjourn any time soon. are you prepared go all night? >> i'm a combat veteran and served in law enforcement for 30 years. i can be here until july. >> is that a metaphor for how you fweel this? is your support for kevin mccarthy -- there is nothing that can break or shake it at this point? >> i don't know if you are aware, young lady, but i'm a member of the caucus. i'm a america first patriots. i said to my friends, my colleagues in the freedom caucus that i don't believe that this is the battle we should be waging. i think the real battle starts when we start drafting legislation and policy in the 118th congress under a speaker kevin mccarthy. you have to understand, the viewers have to understand, there is 35-40 of us in the house freedom caucus. if we have a simple small thin margin of 222 republicans it takes 218 of us to pass any legislation. right? the house freedom caucus is more relevant t

i was surprised when mchenry asked for the adjournments on monday. i would expect him to say until tomorrow at noon. they've been starting at noon. it's possible that could happen. they could come back and say -- let's see if they can adjourn shell tomorrow at noon and enough people might agree to that. >> let's see what ali says. >> if they decide mimics of ten minutes to adjourn tomorrow on monday? >> this is for monday. i'm gonna be honest, i don't know if they have the vote to successfully adjourn until monday. we're gonna actively watch this play out. because -- sitting in the gallery, said there were republican during the votes vote saying now is. well it was democrat, certainly, but it wasn't just democrats. there were some republicans who just want to see this continue going. who want to see matt gaetz and lauren boebert keep their butts in seats and figure out how they're going to move past this impasse, if they're going to move past this impasse. i will tell, you there's also people who are close to mccarthy who have been working with him o

jordan and the two names during the hallway is tom cole republican of oklahoma and patrick mchenry in line to be the chair of the financial services committee is the republican from north carolina. but again, you have to go through a lot of votes and break a lot of furniture and glassware in the u.s. capital before you get to that. maybe steve scalise can get to the magic number. again, it doesn't have to be to a team. we elected three speakers newt gingrich, john boehner and also nancy pelosi. but fewer than 218 votes but if everybody votes for somebody by name, 434 total number of house right now based on that quorum call it is in fact 218. you might have people get sick and have travel plans and a republican elect on that side of the aisle. one had a baby a couple of days ago so you don't know who will be here. you try to get 434 people in the same room at the same time. but again, it is going to be hard to have somebody get more votes than kevin mccarthy peer that is where if this drags on for several days, that is where people start to say there is a coalition candidate out there

i yield back. >> thank you, ranking member mchenry. i now recognize the chair of the subcommittee on housing, unity development and insurance, the gentleman from missouri mr. cleaver for one minute. >> thank you, madam chair. gas prices fell this week the national average of $4.67 which is 12 cents lower than it was last week. so inflation is coming down, but nevertheless, we do have inflation and elevated consumer prices which are hitting our people in this country. the impact of inflation is felt particularly hard among low and moderate income americans who have tight budgets and light discretionary income. however, as much as we are concerned about prices we must not forget that housing is the single largest expense for american families. rents are 22.8% higher than 58 8 largest cities than two years ago with some hikes far exceeding what is reported in the consumer price index. in some cases hundreds or thousands more. a a lack of housing stock is driven up the prices and the federal reserve rate hikes do nothing to alleviate housi

okay maybe it's patrick mchenry.about 1988, when the caulk with us -- then the gop dennis hastert became speaker as option number three, but if it's not mchenry, what might happy? the mainstream gop could do something outside the box, main the anti-mccarthy gop choice, the very conservative jim jordan, or maybe you might get a coalition government with some democrats joining the republicans, perhaps nominating a more moderate. look, it took 133 ballots back in 1855 to 1866, so this could go on for a long time. they agreed back then to a plurality vote. >> that would be an interesting compromise. harry enten, thank you. >>> we have a update on jeremy renner, in his first comments, as well as a picture he shared since a traumatic c snowplow incicident >>> well, some relief this morning, jeremy renner is thanking fans in his first social media post since a snowplow accident. the "hawkeye" actor included a selfie. >> chloe has keeping us updated. you learned more about what happened. >> there was a press conference yeste

along with that, really, as i said really hard to see what negotiations could be productive here, mchenrycause he's head of financial services he has tries to wall street, among republicans left business friendly and at odds with this maga fire breathing wing that is saying we need to roughen up the debt limit. there are many republican whose retain close ties to big business that are various rain event sense about going down this path and mchenry speaks for them. >> great to get your analysis, appreciate it. >> thanks so much for having me. >> the u.s. justice department says it's trying to make lawmakers demands for more information on classified documents found at properties associated with donald trump and president joe biden, but the doj adds that it will try to do so without harming ongoing investigations into both matters, house democrat adam schiff said lawmakers should at least get briefings on the probes. >> certainly be briefed on documents, and this was the point i made after the mar-a-lago discoveries, it was a point i reiterated after it was discovered that president biden a

guest: both scalise and mchenry are institutionalist and they have a lot of goodwill among the members. mchenry was a part of leadership before he settled into a policy driven role on the financial services committee. he was a chief deputy whip for a while there. scalise has been newer to congress but he commands a lot of respect. he had this tragic shooting that he was involved in any came back from that. that showed a lot of people that this is someone who is pretty tough and not got people to think of him in different ways, not just as a partisan warrior. he had a lot of friends on the democratic side. i don't think they will vote for him. he is not a person that seems to engender, and instinctual reaction to mccarthy among some of the members of the house freedom caucus that may not be there with someone like scalise in particular. host: to california, good morning two to max on the independent line. caller: yes, hello. i've a two-part question. one, mccarthy seems like a rino, in these coming in feel like he is soft on these investigations. the rank-and-file people want them becau

patrick mchenry poised to be chairman of the house financial services committee. it is unclear about they could get enough vote among republicans if mccarthy can't. that is the problem. first past the post. he has the most votes in the republican conference by far. you will have a lower bar, lower ability like someone like tom coal, patrick mchenry to get to 218, whatever the magic number is. that is why the first vote starting in the house of representatives is so important. that tells you how big the house is. doesn't start automatically at 434. you try to get 434 people in the same room at same time. there are absences, people are sick, their flight didn't arrive. there is never perfect attendance. neil: that is the way kevin mccarthy could win. so call members of kevin mccarthy calls it, decide to be absent or sick today, some way that would lower the number about kevin mccarthy would need, would it not? >> this is helped john boehner win the speakership in 2013. there was a similar insurrection among republicans. knot nearly as intense as this, the house came

mchenry's chosen -- you could reach to a mchenry or somebody like that in this situation. garrett's right with such a slim majority that person still can only lose four votes, and who in the caucus can do that. that's where if himes was correct that these 20 never mccarthy people get past it, they might take a deal from scalise where they get exactly what kevin mccarthy was going to give them. >> first of all, i actually never thought that kevin mccarthy was going to be speaker. i think i said it more than a year ago because he's really a weak link. and this last couple of days really just proves that. i suspect that when they come back after dinner that mccarthy is going to end up withdrawing. my good money has always been on steve scalise because he is seen as sort of allied enough with the right of the party, and not completely attached to the leadership that he may be that consensus that comes out, and i think that hakeem jeffries was right yesterday when he said that there's no reason for democrats to go -- walk the plank to negotiate through the republican dysfunctio

you already have leaders in the party like, patrick mchenry, saying you know what, we're going to have to do this. >> but why do you have to be in the biden district? why would somebody in the clearly red district give a hoot about arcana me? >> because for about 15 years the big talk about the debt ceiling, right? and this is a problem of overspending. and we are a massive debt and people understand the idea of debt. so there's a general idea that you can spend more money when you have that. clearly, these are things that we already paid for. >> let's also be really clear. this was not just democrats spending money. they're spending all sorts of it when republicans were in office. jen, do you believe that the white house, announcing that it's right? do you believe that they are under pressure to do something to negotiate because this can send our most dangerous game of economic chicken? >> here's what is on the mind, back in 2011, which allowed them have been through it when the vice president. i know you have cover this closely to. and just a negotiation, and the uncertainty, lets it

other names that are more likely are steve scalise, the current number two house republican, patrick mchenry, chairman of the financial services committee. but there is hesitation from those people to throw their name into the ring until it is clear mccarthy will fail because they do not want to create this rift between themselves and kevin mccarthy. alix: thank you very much. laura davidson on the update. coming up, sam bankman-fried on the verge of entering a not guilty plea. the latest from the courthouse. this is bloomberg. ♪ [office sounds] ♪upbeat music♪ ♪♪ ♪when the day that lies ahead of me♪ ♪♪ ♪seems impossible to face♪ ♪a lovely day (lovely day)♪ ♪(lovely day) (lovely day)♪ ♪(lovely day)♪ a bank that knows your business grows your business. bmo. alix: this is "bloomberg markets ." i am alix steel with amber kanwar. sam bankman-fried is expected to plead not guilty to criminal charges at his arraignment in lower new york. this is one of the high profile fraud charges in recent years. sonali basak is in lower manhattan with the latest. what are you learning? sonali: there are a fair
