we haven't talked to mike gallagher since he made that announcement in the second part of last week. it's worth mentioning that gallagher was one of the three republicans who voted against that mayorkas impeachment last tuesday. the expectation was that he would be in the primary because of that. he's in wisconsin which is a very purple state. trump for sure would have supported his primary opponent who would have emerged and so maybe he just saw the writing on the wall that he had made a career ending vote. he said it did it on principle. he said mayorkas did not commit any crimes, he was just doing the administration policy and he doesn't want this -- to set that precedent going forward. we don't know specifically why mike gallagher is gone but i should mention also that kevin mccarthy was removed and a lot of his allies are leaving also. they just see the chaos in the house and if one person has the power to remove the speaker and there were three weeks when we didn't have a speaker, no one was happy on capitol hill and they came appear to get things done and they can't get things

mike gallagher cast no vote, he was unknown. we saw ken buck and tom mcclintock also apps their votes against impeachment, which was expected. then it was a waiting game. we saw the vote was tied, al green came in and like more switched his vote at the last minute and they gaveled out 214-216. host: we heard from marjorie taylor greene after the vote, you were there asking her questions. remind our viewers what role she has played in this impeachment effort of the homeland security secretary. >> she's been one of the foremost opponents -- proponents of impeaching mayorkas. she moved to force the vote, which garnered the attention of leadership, and she has taken credit for this being expedited. when there was the markup on the articles of impeachment, she said this is because of the public move i made to put pressure on leadership to bring the mayorkas impeachment to the house floor. obviously the effort failed tonight. marjorie taylor greene saying we are going to bring this back to the floor, we look forward to steve scalise c

to your question, the story about mike gallagher, you are all familiar about it? young, bright congressman from wisconsin. had to make compromises with maga. in the last two weeks, he said i'm am not running for reelection, i'm leaving. i think there's a larger pattern here with waves. waves always break sooner or later. the republican party is in the process of eating its young, its intelligent young. think about what the bench will look like for the republican party. if you are a really bright young guy like a mike gallagher or fill in the blanks, look at the list of people who have retired. these are people who say i don't want to be part of this anymore. i like being a congressman, but not if i have to sit in the same room as lauren boebert or matt gaetz. this shit is not worth it anymore. if you are young republican, you want to get into public life, what do you have to do right now? think of the crap sandwiches you have to swallow. think of the things you have to kiss and the litmus tests you have to pass. all of these young men and women are saying i will d

mike gallagher a republican of wisconsin, he has voted no.can of california voted no, and ken buck has voted no. keep in mind that republicans could only lose three votes. steve scalise, the majority leader is out. so this is a 215-215 right now. i mean, this is tighter than a new pair of shoes on a wet day outside. 215-215. again, a tie vote means this goes down to defeat. so they are waiting to see who this one republican might be. if they vote for this, then they win, they impeach malliotakis. history is made for the first time since 1876. impeaching a cabinet secretary. the vote would be 216 to 215. if it stays right now 215 to 215, that means the vote goes down. there's a lot of yelling right now in the house chamber because democrats want them to close the vote. they think they have prevailed, bret. we're trying to see. this might get very dicey here in the next couple of moments. >> bret: we will stay with it, chad. what was your deal a pair of leather shoes? >> on a wet day. >> bret: that was your best dan rather old phrases. talk abo

congressman mike gallagher in a moment on that mixed message coming up. polls are now open.congressional race in new york state. the republican's razor thin majority is on the line today. >> who knows what she stands for? she is santos 2.0. >> i promise you, tomorrow, my people will knock you down. they told me there's no electricity on the island. we always thought that whatever we did here would be an emblem of what small communities can achieve. trying to give a better life to people that don't have the means to do it. si mi papá estuviera vivo, sé que él tuviera orgulloso también de vivir de esta viviendo una vida como la que estamos viviendo ahora. es electricidad aquí es salud. they say seeing is believing, but with stearns & foster, that's only part of the story. we handcraft every stearns & foster using the finest materials, like indulgent memory foam, and ultra-conforming intellicoils, for a beautiful mattress, and indescribable comfort, every single night. during our presidents day sale, bring home incredible comfort with savings up to $800 on select adjustable mat

tom mcclintock and mike gallagher. a fourth member, blake moore, voted against it, but that was for procedural reasons, so they could call off the vote again. so when this vote happens again in the future to impeach mayorkas, they almost certainly will have the votes to go forward because steve scalise, a majority will be back after recovering from an illness. a short-lived victory but still a victory for democrats in scuttling this effort that republicans had hoped they could cheer for the impeachment of mayorkas making him the second cabinet secretary ever to face high crimes and misdemeanor charges from the united states house of representatives not happening today because of this failure here. just in a matter of moments we do expect this also to fail. this vote on the floor to approve $17.6 billion in aid to israel would be 2/3 majority of the house to do it because house republicans in the freedom caucus, the far right faction said they would not go along with the leadership's spending and dome kratz said they wo

for example mike gallagher ahead of the china select committee knows darn well the chinese nationalsating havoc in america in california congressman tom mcclintock descended his the fit at the decision of impeaching mayorkas listen to this. >> secretary mayorkas is guilty of maladministration of our immigration laws on a cosmic scale but we know that is not grounds for impeachment because the american founders specifically rejected it. they did not want political disputes to become impeachments. the border crisis cannot be fixed by replacing one left-wing official with another. maria: congressman i want to get your take on this he's talking about process should we be focused on process when 8 - 10 illegals are in this country, federal killing the american citizens, women and children getting raped on their way here what you do continue all of this until the process is the way he wants it? >> tom mcclintock is an independent person buddies in california and i would agree are republican chairman and we have now. you understand a lot better than most, the truth is we have a real problem

johnson: mike gallagher and tom mcchloroquine to*bg and -- mcclintock who are dearest friends. i spoke to both of them this morning. my background is in constitutional lou. i served on the impeachment of the president's team twice. i'm very familiar with the law and legal standard. we had thoughtful intellectual discussion with those two gentlemen this morning. i respect everybody's view on it. i understand. the heavyweight that impeachment is. i said many times you heard me say, next to the declaration of war i believe impeachment is the heaviest authority the house is given in the constitution. we carry that weight very carefully. what i will say about this on the mayorkas impeachment is the homeland security committee did an extraordinary job, very deliberate job, as you know over a long period of time in five different phases investigating the various things that the secretary has been charged with. and ultimately when you talk about the breach of public trust, talk about a secretary who has openly lied before the congress. he stood in front of us and me personally after ta

for all of the news this weekend, the most striking moment for me is when mike gallagher announced he. a retired congressman. he's like the dream republican conservative. paul ryan used to talk about him as the future. i moment you don't always get along, but what does it tell you about the chamber? >> it tells you more about the house at large rather than the chamber. we've legislated a lot, passed bills together, talked about caucuses, sit on the intelligence committee together. he's a principled man. we have fundamental agreements but he understands the sky is blue and the earth is round and you can have policy. it's not good for the country. it's not good for the republican party that your rational, smart, sobeler-minded professionals are deciding there's no place for this in this countries right now. it shows you the trend. i'm very disappointed to see that mike gallagher is missing and i will miss him, and i hope him success in the future. >> congressman jason crow from colorado. thank you. >> that was such a surprise. >> stunned. >> so young. >> stunned. he'll go on to do amazi

one of them was mike gallagher of wisconsin who said afterward that impeachment will set a dangerous new precedent that will be weaponized against future republican administrations. all of this is coming as republican members also lined up to kill their own immigration bill today, one that they spent months demanding and also hammering out behind closed doors over in the senate. cnn's melanie zanona is on capitol hill where all the action is. melanie, i mean, i can't even really imagine what it was like to be on the hill in this moment. but i imagine there were people who were caught off guard when there was one lawmaker who showed up, a democrat that they were not -- the republicans clearly were not expecting who was in scrubs tonight? >> hospital scrubs and no shoes as he's being wheeled on to the house floor. it was quite a scene. republicans were very surprised by this. now, this vote was always going to be close. we knew heading into it was going to be a nail biter. but had al green remained absent, this impeachment vote would have prevailed. so republicans are really saying now

mike gallagher, chairman of the select house committee on china.larming as the comments were from the fbi director, none of what he said is news. we have been covering this for years. if anything, what is most notable, the degree to where i they seem to be ratcheting up successful hacks of u.s. infrastructure. >> yes, the first time the fbi director, nsa director, national cyber director all testifying together and i think the most forward leaning open source system we have had describing what china is doing to us, what amounts to a cyber invasion of the united states. it's not a hypothetical threat, it's happening right now. equivalent of placing bombs on bridges, on our grid, on our water utilities, and there's no economic purpose or even traditional espionage purpose for doing this. one of only two purposes. one, to hold us hostage so we would not respond if, for example, we got into a confrontation with china over taiwan or the second as director easterly testified to, massive devastation and death and societal chaos here in the united states.

mike gallagher, the representative of the american republican party , headed a delegation of five representatives to the island of taiwan with a population of 23 million, and called the support of the american congress for taiwan very strong. china considers taiwan a part of its territory. release of lake urmia from the two dams of mahabad and shahid kazemi bukan, head of the protection organization. the environment also said: yes now the level of urumi lake has reached 75 cubic meters per second. according to mr. selajgeh, 550 million cubic meters of water will flow into this lake from the surface of west azarbaijan until the end of may. before this , urmia valve was also released from canisio level. well , this has several purposes. both the feeding of underground water tables is done in my direction , there is also the issue of satellite ponds, and there is also the issue of daryachi urumi , which both mahabad city and daryachi urmia benefited from this divine blessing, god willing, many ponds that had been closed every year for 20 years. top thank god, it has been restored today. this year is

have announced they are not going to be the running, cathy mcmorris rodgers, brad wenstrup and mike gallagherthat announcement. he is a young man, so he could have had, potentially, a long future there in the gop. so some challenging numbers potentially getting even more challenging. on tuesday there's a special election coming up in new york, that was the seat held by george santos, now potentially a very tight race. of the republicans are hoping to hold that seat. what do you make of this one last chance they have to get the mayorkas vote through? do you think that'll actually happen next week or not? if. >> i think it's going to be really tight, you know? obviously, you mentioned steve scalise is coming back next week, so this really does become their only option. i know tom mcclintock, he has a primary coming up, i think he's one of the only tree that hasn't said whether or not he is retiring or not running again. it'll be interesting, like i said, an interesting decision for republicans who view this as are they just following along with what the party leaders are telling them to do, or

and mike gallagher this week with announced he's not seeking re-election.y among republicans that two guys with a lot of intellectual firepower are deciding not to seek office, and it should make voters worry that congress is not a place where folks of is substance and conviction want to go to make a difference on national problems. i think it's a worrying, depressing trend but wish them the best on their next endeavor. paul: kyle. >> i'll give a miss to two climate protesters who went to the national archives in washington and dumped red powder paint on the display case containing the u.s. constitution. one of them announced, quote, we are determined to foment a rebellion, unquote g they explained that they didn't want their children to live through the end of civilization. that that section of the archives was closed, the constitution seems unharmed, and they were arrested. so now the public will wait to find out whether they are going to be actually prosecuted. but if they are, at least we all know they'll get an impartial jury, a speedy trial and no cru

>> you bring up a good point about mike gallagher and what he said. what they're trying to do -- understand this. everything they do is about donald trump. he is the puppeteer. sadly, he is shining a light on the strings. it looks terrible. everything is about him. what they're trying to do to mayorkas, who is a distinguished public servant, who has honored the law and the policy, executed the law, is they're trying to cheapen the commodity of what an impeachment is. they're trying to say, if we do him that makes it look like what we did to trump similar. it wasn't. trump, high crea crimes and misdemeanors. this case on the immunity goes into this a little bit. when you look at impeachment, as you made the point, you don't impeach about policy disagreement. high crimes and misdemeanors, execution. so again, they're trying to make it -- gallagher wrote something in one of the papers saying, if they shouldn't have done trump, that was frivolous. it wasn't. it was careful. when he gave us no choice, we had to impeach. >> you know mitch mcconnell. you hav

>> mike gallagher of wisconsin have been averse to using impeachment as a tool in this political moment. with republicans having such a narrow majority in the house. but mike johnson, the new speaker of the house, is facing enormous pressure to scrutinize biden and move forward with impeachment charges. this was a constant threat to his predecessor, kevin mccarthy, if you don't take dramatic steps, we will take that's the context of which all of this is beginning to unfold just the second, just this hour on capitol hill. >> catherine herridge, you and your team of producers have had more time to read through the reports. your observations please? >> we are still combing through this 345 page report. one, the special counsel found that joe biden retained classified records from his time in the senate. i would emphasize that as a sitting senator, he would have had no authority to remove highly classified materials from a secure facility. this investigation we say is broad but some of the data, i can help you scope that. 173 interviews, 147 witnesses, 7 million records were reviewed by the

republican leadership was working those three holdouts including congressman mike gallagher of wisconsin who voted against this impeachment effort, trying to get them to flip to absolutely no avail, but, jose, it does not mean this process is over. a spokesperson for speaker johnson had said when they have the votes, they intend to bring this bill back up on the floor to try and impeach the secretary. once again on those two articles they have laid out. carlos jimenez, a congressman from florida, republican who voted for this, had this to say. watch. >> this is serious business. we don't take any pride or joy in any of this. i certainly don't. i voted my conscience. and so did everybody else in there. and so, this isn't over yet. we'll wait until the majority -- >> reporter: meanwhile, we have leader schumer, the democrat, of course, the top democrat in the senate, who is actually just started speaking to reporters in a last minute gag billion what the heck is going to happen on the floor later today. he intends to bring up the clean national supplemental security bill without the border

and the latest example just happened today, where you had congressman mike gallagher who dared to notek reelection. if you are a good, young conservative like a james lankford horry mike gallagher, it's not enough to support trump, it's not enough to vote for trump, it's not enough, it's not enough to vote to acquit trump. you have to be within 100%, or you are gone, that's the state of the republican party today. >> and jennifer, i'm going to give you the last word on this. have we seen, completely, the destruction of congressional republican leadership? where speaker mike johnson can't make a move, and senate minority leader mitch mcconnell can't make a move, unless and until donald trump says this is the move that i think everyone should make? >> yeah, and for a while, the congress was sort of a haven where it didn't have to be that way. and, i'm -- i come from a military family, there is a military term, to military terms that apply here. snafu -- and >> [laughter] snafu, congress had been snafu, twitches situation normal -- >> -- >> all blanked up. this is fubar, this is blank up

. >> mike gallagher of wisconsin warned fellow republicans of establishing a new precedent for impeachinghe weekend hoping he would change his vote. >> do you respect their views when they say they don't think that this is right to go ahead and try to impeach mayorkas when someone like mike gallagher says it opens up pandora's box? >> it's an extreme measure, we do not take it lightly and respect everyone and how they vote. >> the house has only impeached one cabinet secretary in american history, 148 years ago. the senate must at least begin a trial but could dismiss the charges. sandra. >> sandra: chad pergram is on it. thank you. john. >> john: sandra, thank you. the washington, d.c. city council is gearing up to vote on a massive public safety bill to fight rising crime in the district. that includes a wave of carjackings, some of which has been deadly. our next guest's son, alberto vasquez was shot and killed in a carjacking spree in d.c. last week. his father joins us now. i can't imagine what your family is going through and we talked about this in the break. we were all shocked to

to your question, the story about mike gallagher, you are all familiar about it? young, bright congressman from wisconsin. had to make compromises with maga. in the last two weeks, he said i'm am not running for reelection, i'm leaving. i think there's a larger pattern here with waves. waves always break sooner or later. the republican party is in the process of eating its young, its intelligent young. think about what the bench will look like for the republican party. if you are a really bright young guy like a mike gallagher or fill in the blanks, look at the list of people who have retired. these are people who say i don't want to be part of this anymore. i like being a congressman, but not if i have to sit in the same room as lauren boebert or matt gaetz. this shit is not worth it anymore. if you are young republican, you want to get into public life, what do you have to do right now? think of the crap sandwiches you have to swallow. think of the things you have to kiss and the litmus tests you have to pass. all of these young men and women are saying i will d

yes, mike gallagher of wisconsin, he is now an outgoing member and this is his last term in the houset believe that this claim that mayorkas failed in his duty enough so that he would be impeached. that the threshold was even reached. and all three republicans who voted against this pretty much said similar in terms of not seeing enough here in terms of impeaching mayorkas and also some concerns that this is going to become a back—and—forth between democrats and republicans to continue to impeach members of the opposing party. that believe that it doesn't reach the bar to be considered a high crime and misdemeanour, is that a view that some senate republicans may share? yes, that is another interesting wrinkle in all of this. while senate democrats are opposed to this, there are senate republicans who are opposed to this as well. you need 60 votes for example in the senate to convict. assuming the senate goes forward with some sort of impeachment trial, there just isn't nowhere near that number of senators he would get on board in terms of supporting a conviction of mayorkas. just on

i was surprised mike gallagher finally found a backbone and decided to stand up against him.magine the pressure on him will be absolutely intense between now and next week on the mayorkas impeachment. you can't unring a bell. you can't undo the humiliating embarrassment yesterday. the dysfunction and inability of the republican party to be a serious governing party was on full display all day yesterday and we're going to get a replay of that again later today as well. >> we're going to get a replay of that, jonathan lemire, on the immigration question with the cloture vote expected to fail. they're not allowed to debate on this bill. yesterday, as we mentioned, there was a vote after the failed impeachment vote on stand-alone israel aid. again, this was a republican idea, a republican bill. that failed, too, and by a wide margin. this house not exactly covering itself in glory yesterday, and more to come today. >> more to come today. and just a complete abandonment of trying to actually govern here, that right now unless something is a completely startling turnaround, there w

mike gallagher is the china committee head, that makes it more sensitive. cy pelosi went to taiwan, that ruffled beijing's feathers and there were military exercises and diplomatic freezes. mike is not the house speaker, but is a strong advocate for taiwan issues, known as a hawk. he is not seeking reelection in november, so could this be a u.s. swansong to taiwan to make the case for u.s. support? that's right goes to the 95 billion dollars senate bill that was passed that now goes to the house and will face a tougher road in the house, even though this is a $95 billion bill for ukraine, israel and taiwan. it is continue aid for ukraine and as a result, is republicans approve that, they want action on the mexican border. taiwan is not really an issue, it has bipartisan support absolutely. next week we're hearing mike gallagher could be going there along with a house delegation of seven members. david: thank you for taking us full-circle on some of the mentions we had. stephen engle there. apollo asset management's president says economic conditions in the u
