mr. jordan over the top. a lot of pressure from conservative media, conservative lawmakers to back him on the floor. there is the sense that oftentimes the more moderate members do tend to fold when push comes to shove. this is going to be an important test case for that. there are folks who are uneasy about mr. jordan, how it will play into -- there's been a lot of members who have blushed at the tactics that have been used in this campaign. it will be an interesting test case to see how this plays out on the floor, if those moderate members -- host: we will all of together in about 20 minutes here. anthony of politico, congressional reporter, we will let you get back to your reporting. guest: thank you. host: we are asking for your thoughts ahead of this vote to potentially elect the 56th speaker of the house of ribs and this. 202-748-8921 for publicans, -- for republicans, 202-748-8922 for democrats -- for everyone else. caller: i don't want to see jordan in there. anyone else but him. host: you would pref

mr. roy: however long it takes. reporter: do you think those opposing jordan -- mr. roy: this is something that every one of us has a vote. you have to answer to your constituents for your vote. if my colleague are comfortable with their vote. reporter: you wanted to hear the members come out and said why. have you heard their concerns? mr. roy: i have had private conversation was my colleagues. many of them from friends. again they got to explain what the motivations are here. i think motivations of pass recriminations and issues looking backwards that doesn't sell well. the question is how we go forward. mr. jordan is receiving the best majority of the republican votes. basically around the same kevin was getting at the low point of his numbers. 199 compared to 200. reporter: what do you do with the hold outs? mr. roy: talk to them and move forward. reporter: the appropriators -- mr. roy: i'm not going to name my colleagues specifically. they each have their own vote. they have to explain it to their constituents. there is support to jim jordan in texas. i wouldn't

mr. jordan -- he did not back mr. jordan but the main one is he played a role to overturn mr. buttons victory in 2020. 11:00 is when you can see this happen on c-span. another thing you want to look out for when it comes to policy to israel, a hearing today taking a look at jack lew, former treasury secretary, as ambassador. you could see that starting at 10 -- at 10:30 at c-span now. u can download it. it will be before the senate foreign relations committee. jesse is in michigan, democrats line. caller: good morning. how are you? host: go ahead. caller: i lost all respect i had for biden. what israel is doing to palestine is unbelievable. it was an occupation over there. all these people calling about terror. what about here? who did the insurrection of the capitol? it was not palestinians. it was americans. i have lost respect for the party. i will only vote for biden because i have no other choice. listen to this. look at what russia is doing to ukraine. host: that's jesse in michigan. some of you on facebook saying, ever notice thatn e eyes of democrats, democracy only se

mr. speaker, i rise for purpose of placing the nomination, the name of the honorable jim jordan to the position of speaker of the house at the direction of the republican party. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. cole: two weeks and one day ago i was on this house floor and in this chamber defending my very good friend and our former speaker, mr. mccarthy, from an effort to vacate the chair. and in the course of that speech, i made the rehashing that those who did this, whether intentionally or unintentionally were going to put the congress in a state of chaos and the country into a state of uncertainty. i think the last two weeks have vindicated that observation. i think the decision in front of us is tar too important for name-calling or anything else. i'm very proud to place in the nomination the name of our good friend, republican candidate for speaker, the honorable jim jordan of ohio. knowing jim jordan for a long time. i have had the privilege of knowing jim jordan a long time. i've been in conga long time. for his entire period in the house, i had the honor of ser

mr. jordan. he is incredible, he has been sadly, i think, very glib in other places when he is viewing disinformation, lies, in support of his own power, his own search for power, in fealty to this extraordinarily grotesquely failed former president, and so i presume that his bid for speaker is doomed. i cannot see him getting 218 votes, or whatever will be required -- and here's why. i served with him on the judiciary committee. i watched him in the minority. he was ineffective. i worried as he came into the chairmanship judiciary, would he be much more effective? he has been fabulous. he has been spinning and fretting and leaving the room a lot. you see him in the committee hearing after markup, and he has been ineffective. i don't see him succeeding in this run for speaker. >> that's interesting. i always sort of, that is very interesting you say that. you just don't think he has the relationships, the juice. he is a fox news mainstay, so when you put together numbers it was shocking. he's doi

mr. jordan spoke to reporters earlier today. mr. e best way we can help the american people is get the house open. we can't do that until we get a speaker. so, let's get a speaker tomorrow and get back to work for the american people and help our our dear, and closest friend, the state of israel. >> are you preparing for this to go multiple rounds tomorrow? mr. jordan: we're preparing to get a speaker tomorrow. lisa: that was my colleague rachel scott from abc news. let's look at the math problem. this is what it comes down to. what mr. jordan needs to become speaker is about 217 votes in his favor. if he gets that, he would win. that is plan a, but plan b was how mr. mccarthy became speaker, he needs 213 votes but with opponts voting present. not voting for someone else but voting "present." how many votes does mr. jordan have now? end of last week, 152. the news today is one by one, jim jordan has been able to reverse some of his opponents, getting some support today. that's something steve scalise was not able to do. an example, a

mr. jordan, 152 were jim jordan, 55 nays and one abstention. it's closer, the hurdle is to 17. mr. long tongue friend of mine, strong conservative house member, a great following, president trump is behind him. we will see what happens. jim jordan is the guy for the moment. ♪ this isn't just freight. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. promises of all shapes and sizes. each, with a time and a place they've been promised to be. a promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. ♪ is it possible to fall in love with your home... ...before you even step inside? ♪ discover the magnolia home james hardie collection. available now in siding colors, styles and textures. curated by joanna gaines. gold terra is drilling deep and rediscovering high grade gold. their project in northern canada has already unveiled nearly 2 million ounces of high grade gold, with a strategic plan to uncovering millions more. gold terra resources. say goodbye to daily insulin injections with omnipod 5... a tubeless system that automatically adjusts insulin to help protect ag

mr. jordan has done between yesterday and this morning north to foster more support for him? guest: he has been meeting with some of the holdouts but we don't know -- what we don't know is what exactly the holdout rts looking for. but we saw this in the last speaker election in january, we had a list of demands essentially for the holdouts as members of the house freedom caucus and their allies who were say, we want change. the motion to vacate rule. assurances on spending in this way. and it's just not the same situation right now with the holdouts against jordan who are, a lot of them are saying i they're not liking how this process is playing out. the fact that their first nominee, steve scalise, the majority leader, was forced to withdraw after jordan supporters refused to support him. there's just a lot of frustration and hurt feelings in the conference right now. >> if there's a scenario where the vote takes place, mr. jordan still doesn't get the votes are they expected to be multiple rounds like we saw in january or is some type of fallback plan in place? guest: that'

mr. jordan, that includes things like death threats, and these are all things mr. rdan has publicly condemned, but they did not take well to that campaign and the last week as it has gone on has gotten more and has been more and more turmoil in this race, so, yeah, things are not moving exactly in the right direction for jim jordan. host: has the republican kind of abandoned this idea of empowering the temporary speaker, esther mchenry? guest: for the time being, that idea is not dead, but on the back burner for sure. things change quickly. jim jordan told us, told his colleagues yesterday morning that he was going to back that idea to support patch mchenry and make him temporary speaker and give him extended powers as temporary speaker and then continue to run for speaker himself for what would presumably be a vote in january and then four or five hours later after a closed-door meeting, mr. jordan and republicans emerged from that meeting saying, actually, we are not going to offer this patch mchenry resolution. the argument was that there was no support therefrom

donald trump backed jim jordan, but trump is also a great admirer or and friend of steve scalise, and mrm jordan, an old personal friend, he will continue to do a terrific job as judiciary chair in the biden investigations and in pursuit of an end to the who to-tiered justice system -- two-tiered jus jus disthe department. they're song proponents of free speech, and they are supply-side tax cutters. they will work hard to limit the size and scope of the federal government, curb spending and deficits, roll back the anti-growth biden regulations. these guys are pro-business. they are not big government socialists. and the fact that mr. jordan is magnanimously working for a successful scalise speaker's vote attests to jim's patriotism and his strong character. as soon as he get a republican speaker onboard, look for a bipartisan resolution in support of israel. it's going to have to be some kind of supplemental spending bill to help our great ally, israel. and then the hard blocking and tackling. finish up the regular budget order appropriations process. liberal media keeps writing off the

mr. jordan, do you need another phone? >> yes, kayla, please. how did i lose? this is chaos. serve the american people. all i want to do is get congress back to work so i can shut it down again. >> you'll get there, sir. in the meantime, there's someone here who wants to cheer you up. >> hi, jim.

mr. jordan, but there are concerns from the appropriations committee. after all, two weeks ago, mr. oted against the continuing resolution on the very day that the funding was about to lapse, and he in essence voted for a government shutdown and that is concerning of a number of approach yays or the a-- appropriators, and i knw that i am the chairman of the subcommittee and we are concerned about the top line numbers that we are forced write to that we know and most everybody knows are not going to become law, because they have to be balanced out with what the recommendations are in the senate. you have to get to 60 votes before you can have a full year of appropriation, and i have said all along given the divisions of the politic, and the country is divided and the congress is divided, but given the division, it is difficult for either party to be able to impose its will on the other. that means it is -- >> are you willing to work with the democrats? >> i work with the democrats everyday. i talk to them. >> i mean, the governing majority? >> if it comes to that, and it will be a con

mr. jordan, is about 500 days into evading his subpoena about 500 days, so if we are going to talk about contempt of congress, let's get real. are you serious? jim jordan, a witness to one of the greatest crimes ever committed in america, a crime more prosecutions have occurred than any crime committed in america refuses to help his country and we get lectured about subpoena compliance? jim jordan won't even honor a lawful subpoena? are you kidding me? are you kidding me? there is no credibility on that side. mr. attorney general, you are serious. they are not. you are decent. they are not. you are fair. they are not. i welcome you to the law firm of insurrection llp, where they work every single day on behalf of one client, donald trump. they do that at the expense of millions of americans who need the government to stay open, who want their kids safe in their schools and they want to see ukraine in the fight so we don't have to help russia. that is the expense of this nonsense, this clown show. they have real responsibilities that affect real americans. the difference between one side

mr. jordan: it was an honor to be their speaker designee. i thought it was important that we all know if they wanted me to continue in that role. i told the conference that i appreciate that i talked and talked to members that i didn't know that well over the last three weeks and that we need to come together and figure out who our speaker is going to be. i'm going to work as hard as i can to help that individual and work for the american people. we have several depositions lined up and district work we need to do for our american people. it's important we do unite and find out who that individual is and get behind him and get to work for the american people. [indiscernible chatter] mr. mccarthy: unfortunately jim is no longer going to be the nominee. we have to go back to the drawing board. what history will look at, the crazy eights led by gaetz and the damage it has done to this country is insurmountable. i have never seen this damage from a few people from their own personalities and it's astonishing to me. and we are in a bad position f

mr. jordan, is about 500 days into the dating his subpoena. 500 days. if we talk about contempt of congress, let's get real. jim jordan, are you serious, a witness to one of the greatest crimes ever committed, a crime or more prosecution have occurred than any other, refuses to help this country and we get lectured about compliance. jim jordan will not honor a lawful subpoena. are you kidding me. are you kidding me. there is no credibility on that side. you are serious, they are not. you are fair, they are not. i will commute to the law firm of insurrection llp where they work every day on behalf of the client. they do that at the expense of millions of americans to stay open, and would like to see ukraine sites we do not help russia. that's the expense that this clown show shows, but they have real responsibilities that affect real americans. the difference between autocracy and democracy. and one side that believes in ruling. you tried to comply with this committee, and in fact, last week, what are your special agents came for an interview, brought hi

mr. jordan -- he did not back mr. jordan but the main one is he played a role to overturn mr. buttons victory in 2020. 11:00 is when you can see this happen on c-span. another thing you want to look out for when it comes to policy to israel, a hearing today taking a look at jack lew, former treasury secretary, as ambassador. you could see that starting at 10 -- at 10:30 at c-span now. you can download it. it will be before the senate foreign relations committee. jesse is in michigan, democrats line. caller: good morning. how are you? host: go ahead. caller: i lost all respect i had for biden. what israel is doing to palestine is unbelievable. it was an occupation over there. all these people calling about terror. what about here? who did the insurrection of the capitol? it was not palestinians. it was americans. i have lost respect for the party. i will only vote for biden because i have no other choice. listen to this. look at what russia is doing to ukraine. host: that's jesse in michigan. some of you on facebook saying, ever notice that in the eyes of democrats, democracy o

mr. jordan, they want to see where the votes are. he had a meeting with john rutherford, republican yesterday he said he demonstrated his lack of leadership with how he treated steve scalise. mike lawler, republican, walked out of the meeting yesterday saying we need to empower patrick mchenry and get the house open. jim jordan kept saying get the house open and do the people's business and address the middle east crisis. they could do that if they were to elect speaker pro tem. i think what jim jordan is trying to do, prevent that effort by david joyce, republican from ohio, what want to give the house more time and empanel patrick mchenry to have the power. they have done this before. i talked last hour, in the early 1960'ses after sam rayburn, the speaker died and empowered john mccormack to be the speaker and passed major legislation, including creation of the peace corps during that time. you can do that. patrick mchenry can't do that as just acting speaker pro tem, if you were to elect him and might have coalition of democrats

mr. gallagher: there was a leak or something. reporter: jim jordan loves the gym here. mr. gallagher: i'm sure that'll be his top priority when he comes across 217. you got that prediction? you think it's increasingly likely. reporter: i don't like to take bets. >> there's a lot of unprecedented things happen, not a good sign. 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 jorda

mr. jordan and his team, but i'm not going to settle for a promise. i want to see people cosponsor bills, sign letters, making social media posts making a firm commitment to keeping the government open while he make movement on the budget and border. i'm not going to take someone's word for it and be disappointed after they take the gavel. i want to see plans with solid commitments before i lend my vote to anybody. >> you have been open to seeing patrick mchenry's powers expanded as a temporary speaker in light of a mess if you will. if it takes democrats to get that approved, are you okay with it? >> take a step back. i don't think a single vote of the house is required for the temporary speaker to act. it's inherent in the title. in the absence of a speaker, a temporary speaker can, and i would suggest, should act. this is the point of having the job. it was contemplated post 9/11 for the continuity of our government. all business should not stop if there was a vacancy of speaker. don't get confused with the latin terms in there. it's a temporary sp

mr. mccarthy: we'll see. reporter: jim jordan said he was running for speaker now that you were ousted, what's your message to him. mr. mccarthy: i think jim is better prepared in the process to be speaker. i don't think it's right every democrat voted to create chaos and 4% of the republicans joined with them. i think today the men and women of our military got paid. if gaetz had his way, they wouldn't be paid and be sitting in the middle east. our border agents wouldn't be paid. but this whole time we haven't been able to follow through on our bills we're trying to get done, we haven't been able to do investigations. we've got 4% of the caucus that wants chaos. reporter: you think it will go to the floor today? mr. mccarthy: it will be up to them. reporter: do you think you'll come out with a gavel? mr. mccarthy: no. reporter: what do you say for your colleagues voting for you? mr. mccarthy: they just did in there but i would have won the nomination but don't think it's right. we can move on. reporter: you probably would have h

mr. jordan of ohio. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for three minutes. mr. jordan: i thank the gentleman for yielding. on january 3-rbg we said the 118th congress is about three things. pass the bills that need passed. do the oversight work that needs to be done. and stop the inevitable omnibus that comes from the united states senate right before the holidays. kevin mccarthy has been rock solid on all three. we have passed the bills we told the american pee would pass. 87,000 i.r.s. agent, that bill passed. parent's bill of right that bill passed. border security, immigration enforcement legislation, the strongest bill ever to pass the congress passed earlier this year. we have done what we told them we were going to do. we can't help if the senate won't take up those good, commonsense bills. they'll have to answer to the american people come election day. oversight. we have done the oversight that we're supposed to do because of our oversight we know that parents were targeted by the department of justice. because of our oversight we know 51 former intel of

mr. jordan can only lose three house republicans in the vote. heading into this first tally, we already know of six republicans who have said they will reject jordan's bid for speaker. he can't afford to lose six republicans. if all six vote against him it might throw the house into another drawn-out floor mess like what we watch play out in january where it took kevin mccarthy 15 rounds to win the job. a leaderless house means congress cannot pass a aid package for israeli at war. rockets through the sky in tel aviv. cnn is tracking the fast moving mission to submit jordan's bid for the gavel and we start with m manu. what did congressman jordan have to say? >> he said he willing to go as long as it takes and the message i'm hearing from sources that are familiar with the matter that congressman jordan, even if he does not get 217 votes in this first ballot which he is not expected to get the magic number in this first ballot, that he will fight it out on the house floor, potentially ballot after ballot. maybe perhaps as long as kevin mccarthy w

[indiscernible question] >> unless it is done today. i hope they don't. [indiscernible question] host: you heard him repeat what we have heard from other conservatives today after this third round of voting failed which is keep going that kevin mccarthy won after 15 rounds and think that jim jordan should keep pushing and he will pick up as the voting continues round after round. let's get your reaction. ken in forth smith, arkansas, republican. should jim jordan keep pushing for more votes. caller: i think a certain number of reasonable rounds, i'm not sure it is 5 or 15. a caller said he should apologize and will vote for him. that's the radical mag as. i

mr. jordan.ether they are on the hill, there is a sense that they are not playing fair. >> that was a large part of what we did today, express our concern with the threats that many of us are received from within our own party. that is the part that is the most disheartening. to be intimidated by members of our own party is frustrating. >> it makes me more resolved. folks that express themselves, that have courage, those threats embolden us even more. reporter: this is part of why the opposition is standing their ground. they say if they give into these threats they feel their entire career will be beholden to this kind of tactic. one republican member told the conference today that he had to see that oh sheriff was posted at his daughter's school. there are many dynamics here and some are dangerous for the country and some for individuals. republicans want a way forward but they cannot find it. geoff: lisa desjardins, thank you. amna: the wide ranging racketeering case against donald trump took
