we'll ask congressman mike gallagher, and fox team coverage on the breaking news from the war in the middle east. >> john: trey yingst is live in southern israel. what more can you tell us about the release of the israeli soldier that happened in the last couple of hours? >> good afternoon. private madagish, she was at the base, a base that sits just along the gaza border when she was kidnapped and held hostage for the past three weeks inside the gaza strip. in the distance you can hear outgoing artillery. israeli forces are inside gaza. she was rescued last night, according to the israeli military during their ground operation. idf says she was medically examined and is in good condition. you saw the photo with her family, a joyous moment for them, their daughter back home. what it's like inside gaza, israeli tanks moving throughout the strip. you can see the israelis marking targets on the northeastern side of the gaza strip. in the distance, you can hear the thud of artillery. this is a very active front and as the israelis push deeper into gaza, they anticipate there will be more

host: that was republican mike gallagher of wisconsin talking after the vote today. where jim jordan received 199 votes. hakeem jeffries received 212. and others including steve scalise and kevin mccarthy and a few others, john boehner, got a smattering of the 22 republicans who did not vote for jim jordan. well, three of those 22 votes were new yorkers. so-called moderate new york congressmen. they were congressmen december po see toe, lawler and la low tasm none of the three voted for jim jordan. bloomberg vernment is reporting that speaker candidate jim joan told moderate new york holdouts that he would support doubling the state and local tax deduction cap to $20,000. that's according to representative mike garcia, republican of texas, a jim jordan supporter. back to your calls. nathan in columbus, ohio. good afternoon, nathan. caller: good afternoon. i wanted to call to make a point about jim jordan that i think is underappreciated. and that is that jim jordan is known -- best known at ohio state university for his role in covering up a sex scandal in the 1980's

and a comment about mike gallagher, he's one of three mics like the three tenors, mike turner and mike mccall and mike gallagher, chair major committees in the house and do extremely well. as a lifelong democrat, i admire you enormously. i chair the commission on national defense strategy and also the border freedom house. and i asked this question on their behalf but also mine. if you were xi jinping right now looking up the house of representatives and looking at all the threats of closure, and some of the ideas that are floating around, not commenting on whether they are good or bad but commenting that they are floating around, with this make you more likely to be risk ready and say the united states is falling apart, i might as well move on taiwan or not? >> great question, thank you for not only your remarkable record of public service, but you have always been incredibly kind to me. even when i was a no named congressman who ranked 415th in seniority. thank you very much. my working hypothesis is that the window we are in now is what i call the window of maximum danger. there are

mike gallagher from wisconsin. any of those -- and mike turner of ohio. any of those that they would put on the floor for nomination, the 212 democrats would come over and help support them. because they are -- they're not maga republicans. they are conservative republicans. host: all right, roy. let's listen to ralph norman talking to reporters on capitol hill. mr. norman: we have got to decide who we want as speaker. he's the designee now. for however long it takes. at the end they have day jim jordan will have to decide that. he has to decide what he wants to do. reporter: if he supports this, would that change your mind? mr. norman: no, whether he supports it or not i don't think it's the right way. reporter: do you think giving him two more months to get the votes is ok. mr. norman: his time is now. reporter: but you had another speaker designee. mr. norman: jim jordan is the right man for the right time to do the right job. he's the only one that's gotten 199 or 200 votes. it's up to him to get the 17 others. i think he probably will. i have another

we'll get back to our guest congressman mike gallagher. for now you see secretary mayokas being asked about the rise in anti-semitism since october 7th. let's watch. >> actions to address this moment. >> director wray. >> absolutely look forward to having our folks participate in the briefing that you requested. i will say that this is a threat that is reaching in some ways historic levels. in part because, as you know all too well, the jewish community is targeted by terrorists really across the spectrum. home grown violent extremists, foreign terrorist organizations sunni and shia. domestic violent extremists and, in fact, our statistics would indicate for a group that represents only about 2.4% of the american public, they account for something like 60% of all religious-based hate crimes. we're trying to do our part both by tackling it through a joint terrorism task forces, hate crime investigations, outreach both nationally and locally at every field office level, intelligence sharing, training. i know i've spent a lot of time engaging

or mike gallagher of wisconsin. those are true conservative, what the democrats are waiting for. at 210 or 212 democrats for mike turner or any of those i mentioned. but they are not going to cross the aisle for maga -- maga is not a republican party. it's a party within itself. a maga party. a republican party is a true conservative party. like we had under president reagan. host: carolyn in louisiana. republican line. caller: yes. until they learn to play ball together, they ain't going to do crap. first of all louisiana, we don't play this monkey business they play everywhere else. we go in, we vote. we don't try to steal votes or whatever. but louisiana's got a good guy there. they don't squished out some of the best ones. everybody has skeltons in their closet. i'll tell you one thing, the democrats will stick with democrats. and republicans here lately don't want to do too much of nothing because they want a pity party like a bunch of women. we are just down home people. we don't like all this crap. we think they need to turn around and do what needs to be done and quit play

maybe it is in -- tom colorful of oklahoma, don bacon, wisconsin mike gallagher, skip no from arkansas, where texas mike mccaul, or even liz cheney. i get that this is a long haul, but it is not mission impossible. in fact, it just might be the most practical path forward for the country. >> john, you know, i admire your optimism. but you know what, one of those names you put out, there he voted for jim jordan today. what makes you think the democrats are going to -- any of these republicans? >> there have been bipartisan talks going on in the background since last week. hakeem jeffries wrote an op-ed saying, he would support a bipartisan coalition. this is a nascent movement to be sure. it is a plan c 40. someone like him has been mentioned behind the scenes, that because he is respected across the aisle. as a conservative, you've met. is he seen as trustworthy? that is. well >> so, i'm going to largely agree with you. i want to offer a different name. so liz cheney as much as i would love for that happen, i don't know if she would get a single vote in the house republican congress. c

. >> was conference congressman mike gallagher joins us now.an came in second. he told everyone don't vote for me. vote for scalise, but they're going to vote for him anyway which means they will all be deadlocked. which are take? to keep my take is leading up t the vote, everybody said in conference, both of these two men running for speaker are goo men, and we will support whoeve wins. the rule was whoever gets the majority votes we will support that person on the floor. now it appears that people don' want to abide by that tradition which throws the house into chaos. we can't confirm a speaker, we can't do anything. we can't pass a bill providing aid to israel, we can't pass a bill that would force the sale of tik tok. all important things we need to get done cannot happen in absence of the speaker. we have a narrow majority. people are frustrated with the status quo in congress, but we are paralyzed unless we have a speaker. people have to compromise, they have to coalesce. absent a speaker we can do nothing in the house of representatives

event on thursday marking the 17th anniversary of the armistice, here is our representative, mike gallagherhe is a republican from wisconsin. he assesses what he sees as the best way to remember the word. >> time and time again we are reminded, at great cost, that what allows us to live in peace and freedom is strength. it is our investment in a robust military deterrent. in the korean war stands as a reminder of the enormous cost when deterrents fail. so if we remember anything else on this day, it is that we should dedicate ourselves to the cause of peace. and peace, in my opinion, is best achieved through strength. and strength is not a matter of how many weapons we have or how destructive those weapons are, but the fighting spirit. the spirit of the young men and women we asked to stand on the walls of freedom. in the fighting spirit of the allies that we asked to fight with us. and certainly, as the audience here demonstrates, we are stronger when we fight hand-in- hand with our allies. while we pray that we are never forced to fight again, we must do everything possible to prepare for

>> plenty of people want it, tom cole is one, bacon another you hear, mike gallagher, a number of folks who would be pretty strong and could have that. all you need to do is liberate yourself from the disproportionate -- republicans have called arsonists, not jim jordan, and then hakeem jeffries, to have democrats, a handful of them vote to get this done. that's the only way -- >> scalise was supposed to be that person. scalise, and jeffries have a good personal relationship. they've both talk abed about it. plays on the house baseball team. scalise threw in his cards because he had so many extremists in his conference who said we will take you down, mccarthy you, make it impossible for you to become speaker of remain speaker, it's a very difficult task. >> everyone i spoke to on the hill, republican chiefs of staff, saying scalise is trusted by members, very conservative, but he's trusted. scalise had friends. and you know they just kicked him to the curb 24 hours after he got the vote. >> i want to get this in before we go. what we played for you that was republican presidential candi

listening along with us was republican congressman mike gallagher of wisconsin. he joins us now. let's get your overall we action to that and what you have heard, if anything, about what president biden might be saying today or even doing behind the scenes. >> first of all, the testimony from the family members is heartbreaking. it is horrific. the videos we see hamas put out in realtime. the barakism on display. we're seeing the face of evil. there should be no moral equivalents here. hamas is a terrorist organization that launched a war against israel and those who seek to blame israel don't understand good versus evil and right versus wrong. our response, we need to back israel to the hilt. we traditionally supply 50% of the iron dome system. we need to make sure that that's replenished and other munitions such as small diameter bombs. we need to back our closest ally to the hilt. there is going to be a very difficult military operation in the days to come. the bottom line is, israel can't stand by as it suffers this unprovoked terrorist attack. we in congress have an importan

. >> what about what congressman mike gallagher told andrea mitchell a moment ago, there was a sense in the conference, the meeting, that they needed to get together and get back to work, there were some big issues they needed to get working on, including this aid package to israel, that that was going to motivate people. do you see that actually being a motivator to come together and vote for the person who did get the most votes, which is steve scalise, even though he's 104 short? >> i think it's a motivator, whether it will actually motivate enough people to get behind scalise is an open question. i was on the phone with a republican member of the house, let's call him a scalise skeptic who said that for the time being israel does have enough aid money that the biden administration can draw down on. the ndaa, the national defense authorization act is sitting in the senate, which authorizes more money for israel, so they think, you know, this is not as immediate. it's very immediate, obviously. but they say there are ways for congress to get aid to the israel people, the israeli mi

also some are concerned about the precedent it sets like congressman mike gallagher. listen to what he told us. >> i still have concerns about the constitutional precedent as well as i would say the practical effect, you know. i worry that it might inflame tensions. i think it is sincere. i had a long talk with david joyce. i worry that it might exacerbate the divide we see in the caucus right now. >> reporter: you hear gallagher saying it might further exacerbate the divides within the conference. i'm not sure how that could happen. just to be sure how we're getting information, this is what it looks like. members coming down the hallway, and reporters asking all the questions we can, to get a sense of what the lawmakers are talking about in the room. it is extremely chaotic. it's a moment where information is trickling out little by little, and frankly where none of the members are the only person who can speak to what's actually happening. they're not the only ones calling the play. every individual has their own view of what should happen next here, and it truly i

one republican, mike gallagher, said there are more deeper issues as well. >> this is a product of decadesinstitutional neglect. so if you have people who feel no loyalty to the institution of congress, because it's weak, the most powerful branch of government are the weakest. they are not going to abide by the rules of congress or the norms of congressional behavior. it just seems like if you disagree with someone on one policy decision like a lot of people disagree with emmers position on gay marriage i guess, that's enough to save you won't support him for speaker. we can't operate that way. lisa: drifting into the outer room, an area where it is not clear what rules and laws are in effect. anecdotally, i'm getting more texts from my neighbors, even my mom, about the situation. the concern of the chaos in the house is expanding. geoff: the house had -- the house has been rudderless for more than three weeks. what happens next to the degree that anyone knows? lisa: as you and i are talking, the house congress is meeting behind closed doors. they have decided to reopen their candidate lis

all of your reporting sunday on "meet the press" and joining us now is republican congressman mike gallagherf wisconsin. former marine, member of the armed services and intelligence committees and the head of the special select committee on china. your reaction to steve scalise saying he is nominated because he has more votes, 113 to 99, but he doesn't have a majority of the conference yet. is that an impediment to him being named speaker. >> my hope is everyone prior to the vote uniting behind everyone who has the most votes and is 113 is a narrow majority, as you know, we have serious business that we need to do and we can't be mired in a protracted speaker's race. i think there's bipartisan action that we can take today or early tomorrow on israel, a bipartisan resolution as well as providing support so that the military support we provide to israel doesn't go dry. there are things we need to do that simply cannot happen until we nominate and choose a speaker of the house. my hope is that everybody in the republican caucus will unite on the house floor if we have a vote later today. >> wh

let's bring in congressman mike gallagher of washington.e start with the chairman here. what has been the response from sequoia at this point? >> we have yet to get a formal response but we're hoping that they will participate in good faith and that we can have an open and honest conversation. what we're trying to do is gather information that will inform the legislative process. r raja and i agree american firms should not be capitalizing on chinese communist parties human righ ri rights abuses. sequoia has a history of investing in companies that do that. we want to understand how the new split between sequoia u.s. and sequoia capital china. whether it will prevent from flowing to chinese military companies or intentionally or unintentionally sequoia capital china to avoid scrutiny from the new executive order from the biden administration. >> congressman, would you follow up on that. is this split enough for you or do you need to hear more and what kind of, i guess, rails are you looking for or walls between the two companies? >> i think

mike gallagher i'm not going to speak as eloquently as everyone else, but i'd like it to remain the same as it was and hopefully close for good. you don't need to activate a park. we can look at a bunch of cities around the world that are way ahead of us and i guess we always talk about wanting to be a world class city, but it only takes trips elsewhere to see that it looks like we're living 30 years in the past and people need to have more space outside to hang out and this is just it's clear that somebody wants this close because as it was tried to be done behind closed doors, pretty sure we know who that is. the mayor doesn't seem to like this stuff. and it's time that we do bold things and not just mess around and make the merchants do all this stuff. just let just you know, do your job. like build this stuff out like they do in dutch cities. i mean, this is a it's a joke. i've been here for over ten years and nothing changes. and it's just do something bold. we saw in the pandemic what this city could be . i mean, when it was so quiet, when there was just so much less and we got all

i have heard from democratic frontline members, including i've heard mike gallagher's name floated.id mentioned. those names are not out there in any significant way. i think the mindset around a consensus candidate is, you have to take this to the floor with republicans and then see how they fail and then circle back to that. >> unbelievable. it has real consequences. the world is watching. ali vitali, i'm so glad we had time, thank you so much. thank you for the clock. david jolly, thank you so much for coming around and having this conversation with us. another break. we'll be right back. evolution means choosing the right medicare plan for you. humana can help. with original medicare you're covered for hospital stays and doctor office visits, but you'll have to pay a deductible for each. a medicare supplement plan pays for some or all of your original medicare deductibles, but they may have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. humana medicare advantage prescription drug plans include medical coverage, plus prescription drug coverage. and coverage for dental

let's listen to congressman, mike gallagher after the second speaker vote yesterday saying, he has nodea of jim jordan will drop out. here is his impression on what could happen next. [video clip] >> i have no idea. i think jim needs to -- i think it would be wise for jim to figure how to make progress or reducing the number of votes. who cares about the institution. i don't know. i have not talked to have him. >> do you think there's anything behind a bipartisan speaker? >> my sense is that the democrats review the speaker pro tem path as that. we would be more reluctant to vote for republican even if they are reasonable. that is just my sense. it is not like hakeem jeffries calls me and reveals --. i think the tops of the coalition government. i am not sure how many votes would be for that. i think everyone agrees on what needs to happen and compromises that needs to happen on funding. israel. i think there a obvious bipartisan compromise on ukraine and border security. i just do not know. i think it is premature. host: in republican and wisconsin talking about what could happen. yo

reporter: we've heard some people float the idea of consensus candidates, people like tom cole or mike gallagherched scenario because we've seen moderates fall in line behind jordan more quickly than they will vote for hakeem jeffries. that's still something that some democrats are holding out hope for. i do think with jordan, the numbers that we doesn't have right now, they think that by going to the floor and putting the public pressure on, after going several rounds of this, they think that will combine to allow him to get the numbers that he needs to become speaker. if he fails and they have to go back to the drawing board for now the third time, i don't know that that room can contain the frustration i've heard from republican members, who are so upset this is what their majority has devolved into. there are some names we hear percolating in whispers. here's something i've been thinking about a lot since last week, the idea that jim jordan had a week and a half worth of lead time on his whip operation for the closed-door vote at the end of last week, and austin scott from georgia jumped in
