writing these folks to his home to talk about this. >> sandra: that moment you referenced with nancy mace you got president-elect on the phone to flip at least at least two of those republican votes on the span 30 minutes we will ask mace about that and just a moment when she joins us. >>> this certification of the president election is front and center. >> good afternoon it was the final step towards electing a president from 2024. the 12th amendment to the constitution dictates that the vice president preside over a joint session of congress which certifies that the electoral college results. that meant vice president harris had to certify her own loss. >> the whole number of the electors appointed to vote for president of the united states is 538. within that whole number, the majority is 270. the votes for president of the united states are as follows. donald j trump of the state of florida has received 312 votes. >> unlike the riot four years ago there were no security threats on capitol hill. a massive barricade and circled the capital today. in 2021 republicans planned to contest t

also consider his colleague, republican congresswoman nancy mace. >> it was a sad day for our nation.art broken. and i was pissed off and angry by seeing this violent mob. how do we hold a president accountable that put all of our lives at risk? >> how do we hold a president accountable that put all of our lives at risk? how? turns out if your name is congressman nancy mace, you endorse that president to be president again after he did the thing that made you -- that you said made you so angry and afraid for your life. nancy mace was so committed to holding that guy accountable, she actually endorsed trump over nikki haley, who is not only from her home state of south carolina, haley actually is her constituent and lives in her district. here's one more. >> this has been a truly tragic day for america. violence in any form is absolutely unacceptable. it is anti-american and must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. >> it is anti-american and must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the -- you see what -- you see where this is going for now, right? right? >> i have concer

nancy mace was so committed to holding that guy accountable.y endorsed trump over nikki haley, who is not only from her home state of south carolina. haley actually is her constituent and lives in her district. you want one more? here's one more. >> this has been a truly tragic day for america. violence in any form is absolutely unacceptable. >> it is anti-american and must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. >> it is anti-american. it must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. you see, you you see where this is going for now, right? right. >> i have concerns about the treatment of january 6th. hostages. >> they must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. i mean, they're hostages. we must free them. it is one thing to sugarcoat the facts of what happened on january 6th, 2021. it's another thing entirely to contradict your own personal, individual assessment of what happened that day, especially when it didn't happen all that long ago. it is a phenomenon that is funny and embarrassing, but it's not slowing down on

trump got on the cell phone with the two congressmen and apparently things changed, congresswoman nancy mace called trump on her cell phone from the florida alps, trump was, we will be shocked to hear, on the golf course at the time, she handed her phone over to norman, a conversation was had, multiple conversations and they changed their vote to mike johnson, handing him the speakership, so johnson can technically say, no on the first ballot. but again, a little bit shaky, hardly a resounding vote of confidence, they then signed a letter to johnson effectively saying they only voted for him to not delay the certification of the presidential vote on monday, that happens on january 6 is the day that happens. and warning my johnson to watch his step, this sends a message that it is not a united conference. remember, they are talking about the ambitious legislative agenda, they have not resolved any of the internal conflicts and have caused all the chaos when they didn't have a really big agenda. they have burned through a speaker and temporary speaker and finally landed on my johnson and all o

nancy mace sending outreach tweet moments ago, house g.o.p. united in making america great again, let's do this. we saw her obviously at the center, visually we saw her on the screen a bunch, running around in the middle of these huddles, passing phones along. she was obviously integral in the split to the point of her messaging, james, what conclusions can you draw about the power of donald trump's endorsement here and the power that will continue to have? >> certainly very powerful, very persuasive, more so than in the recent attempt to raise the debt ceiling. i also think it was interesting, you were talking about the visuals, just in terms of speaker johnson's method took around those last few members. he is known as a very polite and gracious guy. the speaker, as you know, has that beautiful, big, ornate office right off the floor, but he went to meet with them in the cloakroom. i think that suggests he was treating them with respect and as an equal, not as the speaker talking down to them. your interview with mr. fallon suggested they we

todd: other border security include violence against women by illegal aliens act, that is from nancy mace, safeguard voter eligibility act and laken riley act which will get a vote today. the goal is to get them passed quickly to give donald trump some victories. do you think it will be that easy? >> we have seen an agency run by people preventing them from doing their job. we are codifying and saying to department of homeland security, this is your job, do it. laws like laken riley act in place to be sure mayorkas is doing his job. i am hopeful we will vote in the house and be able to get democratic support in the house and senate. these bills should not have to be done. what we have seen, they do, you have administration that refused to enforce the law. >> todd: these are bills to say enforce the darn law, which is what the american people are calling out for. we'll be watching, thank you. last-minute barrage of regulations coming from president biden trying to throw a wet blanket on the trump agenda. >> carley: brian brenberg will tell us what can be done to reverse your wallet, that i

that is nancy mace in the red dress, trying to figure out the best path forward.n be no other business here, except, another boat on this issue or adjournment. that is the johnson -- choice johnson gets to make now. >> brendan buck is with me. >> right now, he has control of when they gavel down. >> i don't think the clerk will keep the boat open forever, but they will, certainly, show some deference. the one issue, garrett is right, either they vote or adjourn, but adjourning is not that simple. mike johnson cannot just say, we will adjourn. there has to be a vote to adjourn. if the members that just voted against johnson don't want that to happen, they don't have to go along with that. the democrats don't have to go along with that. they would be short of the votes to adjourn, and the next order would be to vote again. the options are quite limited, are not really in mike johnson's control. i will say, losing only three bouts is very good for mike johnson, relative to where kevin mccarthy was. he lost 19 on the first one, eventually, that became 20. just having

nancy mace, we appreciate yourim too. president biden will deliver farewell address from the oval office tonight. we'll look at his words to american people. it has been the privilege of my life to serve this nation for 50 years, i've been blessed with love and support of the american people. it comes after blitz of 11th hour policy decision and actions including designation of two national monuments in california. >> national wonders are heart and soul of our nation and you all know it in this am radio. they unite and inconspiracy theorists us, birth right we pass down from generation to generation. day 1 of my administration we've been carrying out most aggressive climate agenda ever in history of the world. >> todd: outgoing president is lifting cuba terrorism designation, move met with backlash from cuban american lawm lawmakers. democrats have betrayed cubans. carlos gimenez had this to say. >> never listen to what the biden administration tells you, watch what they are doing, this is last act watching, helping our e

south carolina representative and adult woman who gets her makeup done at the american girl store, nancy macerepresentative mace loves to fear-monger about anything and everything, which might be why this week, she floated the theory that the drones could be from outer space. yes, obviously the drones could be aliens who are all famously obsessed with new jersey. we know this. we know this. we all saw the scene from "close encounters." [delicate music] ♪ ♪ ♪ living on a prayer ♪ ♪ take my hand ♪ >> stephen: we'll have more on this story as it continues to be nothing. speaking of the sky: space, the sky's dad. remember over the summer when those two nasa astronauts went to the international space station but then they got stuck up there and they're still up there? and we forgot about 'em until i asked you if you remembered it just now? good times. well, their return has now been delayed until at least late march, which will be 10 months after they left. i'm guessing the games of eye spy are getting predictable. "eye spy with my little eye -- " "hatch. you spy a hatch. it's always hatch." these

out the holdouts" going on to say two people who spoke with fox news digital said representative nancy mace connected trump with -- by phone after they voted against johnson. it sounds like the most pressure here came from the very top. there was a lot of pressure from within but the big pressure might have gone from the top. what do you think? >> being that the county is represented by both myself and keith, i think there was a lot of pressure from the grassroots all the way to the president-elect. we wanted keith to vote with us are unified government. mike johnson has had one of the most difficult jobs in the country insomuch as we had divided government and we wanted results. it's difficult and we pass so many good conservative pieces of legislation out of the house but then chuck schumer could kill it. now it's majority letter -- leader thune so it's a different equation. with president trump in the white house to take care of business moving forward. >> trace: another one of your colleagues chip roy, was not satisfied without the one 18th congress worked and said the following on fox

congresswoman nancy mace and others convene standouts in a side office off the house floor for a conferencee the president-elect was on speakerphone. we are told that he said it would be disrespectful to americans who voted in a historic presidential election to have the speakers vote go to a second or third ballot. and it would be disrespectful, to me, he said. ending with, fellas, we have a lot to do, let's get to it. the media has been salivating over the idea of a fractured party. but they once again had the wind taken out of their sales. now that congress has their housekeeping settled, they are ready to move right along with supporting the america first agenda. >> the path of prosperity has long been paved with policies that put america and americans first. and that is what we will champion in the 119 congress. sadly for the past four years, a divided government, too many politicians in washington have done the opposite. open borders and overregulation have destroyed our cities. inflation and weak leadership have left americans poor and they have placed our country in a perilous posit

i'm hearing from someone that it was nancy mace possibly that got him on the phone. then hand that had over and the talk began. it was both trump and johnson i think talking to these two guaranteed credits and tropical storming that they will it'll bin collusive conference on trimming the deficit. larry: that's great news. aishah hasnie, thank you, appreciate it very, very much. yes, it was high noon today on the floor of the house of representatives and michael johnson was finally reelected to be speaker in the 119th congress. by a huge vote of 218-2015. may be a -- 218-215. reminds me of high noon cowboy movie. cooper won an oscar for his role of cleaning out the bad guys and at the end of the movie, he shoots the worst criminal in town. wasn't exactly like this on the floor of the house but in the end mike johnson was able to persuade dozens of gop rebels including some friendly persuasion, i guess with donald trump for the last two holdouts. the guy cooper metaphor and not precise and you get the picture. speaker johnson gave a strong acceptance speech touching o

i am told messing meese -- nancy mace whipped out her cell phone and called donald trump, who was in middle of the game of golf and took the whole group to the back room and handed over the line. he said, i need you to be here with me, need you to vote for mike johnson, i need you, i have this mandate and i need you to deliver for may. that is all it took to get them to fall in line. is only 15 minutes later, they went back to the floor, went to the clerk and switched their votes. for me, the two big takeaways, trump still has a ton of influence in that conference. we told you that would be a test of his influence. number two, the fact that johnson needed trump to get over the finish line proves just how difficult governing is going to be for him in the months ahead as they tried to enact this very difficult process julie was talking about, reconciliation, and, keep in mind, there are about to lose two more members when a elise stefanik m mike waltz goes to the trump administration. it is a tight margin and a really tough road of governing ahead. >> johnson has begged the president-e

and the day after the attack south carolina congresswoman nancy mace who had just been sworn in as a new member of congress just a few days prior and supported trump on the campaign trail that year said that trump's entire legacy was wiped out by the events of january 6. but there has been a lot of revisionism in the past four years. throughout his third presidential campaign trump often played a rendition of the national anthem sung by the j 6 prison choir, a group of people who had been jailed for crimes connected to january 6th. he also calls them patriots and political prisoners and refers to january 6th as, quote, a day of love. he vows to issue pardons for many of those convicted for participating in the insurrection and just last night at mar-a-lago trump hosted a screening of the john eastman dilemma, a movie about the attorney who has been described as the architect of the attempt to subvert the results of the 2020 election. in a video posted online apparently taken from the audience last night trump sang eastman's praises insisting eastman was, quote, right the whole time.

what happened there, kind of a dramatic scene on the floor were nancy mace was on the phone, speaker johnson came and talked to self and norman and took them off to a side room and got them on the phone and trump called and said it's time to get going. they came back into the room after quite a delay and they voted for house speaker mike johnson. keith self that he was very frustrated with how the 118th congress went, and you asked that question, that is kind of part and parcel of what it is going to be like during this congress. it is such a narrow majority, edward, for the republicans, that they are going to be able to do all of these things, it is going to be tough because on every single roll call vote you are probably going to have two or three holdout saying i am for 95% of this bill but i want a or b. that's going to be a challenge peer here was the final tally: mike johnson eventually racked up 218 votes. he could lose one boat with 434-member house. kim jeffries 215 and thomas massie's vote got one. maybe not quite as rocky as the last time. two years ago that took 15 rounds

congresswoman nancy mace, others convened the stand outs. ralph norman and keith self and a side office just off the floor for a conference call where we're told the president-elect was on the speaker phone we're told he said something to the effect of it would be disrespectful to americans who voted in an historic presidential election to have this vote go to a second or third ballot. he added it would be disrespectful to me adding with essentially, we've got a lot to do, let's get to it. and a short time later we saw representatives elect at that time, norman and self walk to the well of the house chamber and they changed their votes to johnson. giving him enough votes to become the 56th speaker of the house. in this 119th congress. president-elect crediting chip roy, andy biggs from arizona as well. we're told. so eventually you get to that comment that he gave fox digital about the unity. it was a butchy road to get there. and i think you're going to have questions about legislation and how much he may have to be working those phones to

nancy mace. daddy. >> hi. goodness. >> my daughter is being treated for leukemia. i hope that she lives a long, great, happy life and that she will never forget how mom and daddy love her. saint jude. i mean, this is what's keeping my baby girl alive. >> you can join the battle to save lives by supporting saint jude children's research hospital for just $19 a month. >> you'll help us continue the life saving research and treatment these kids need now and in the future. >> cancer makes me feel angry. like it. not in the like feel on the outside, just the inside. i'm angry at. >> when your kid is hurting and there's nothing you can do about it. >> that's the worst feeling in the world. >> 1 in 5 children diagnosed with cancer in the u.s. will not survive. >> those that donate to saint jude, i hope that you will continue to give. >> they have done so much for me and my family. >> join with your debit or credit card now and we'll send you this saint jude t-shirt that you can proudly wear. >> estan salvando vidas y la vida de mi hija es una de ellas. >> are you ready to

your constituents, but how do you plan on working on legislation with various republicans like nancy macefor example, who've personally attacked you? >> look, there are professional provocateurs parading as public officials in the republican conference, but those are individuals who won't work with any democrat at this point and can barely work with their own republican colleagues. i'm used to working with people who disagree with me on some pretty fundamental issues, including issues that are near and dear to my heart personally. but that's the only way we make government work. it's the only way we have a pluralistic, diverse democracy. we have to be willing to have conversations across disagreement and yes, seek to find common ground with people who we may disagree with on every other issue. but the one before us. that's what i did in the delaware state senate, where nearly every bill i introduced and passed passed with bipartisan support. and it's how i'll continue to approach this work in congress. >> once again, congratulations, congresswoman, on your election being sworn in in the h

guest: if i spend all my time reacting to representatives like nancy mace, i would lose complete sitethe reason why the people of my district in massachusetts sent me to congress. i don't get distracted by the hateful rhetoric that is just used for headline grabbing and attention seeking. i am focused on making sure that the people of my district can afford to pay their bills, to get ahead, to give their children a better life than they have. i used sort of the example i grew up in a family that lived paycheck-to-paycheck, and we really did not take our heads up to focus on that washington is maybe debating. we didn't have the luxury. we were working on making sure we could have a roof over our head and on the table. and that is the plight of most americans in our country. they do not want to hear a debate around hate and things that aren't really affecting them. they want us to focus on the issues that matter most to them, so i think it is going to be a challenge in this congress for sure, but i think democrats are really focused on what people care most about, and that is improving

. >> of course, megan hayes is nancy mace who has made quite the effort to be front and center on this, shall we say. what is this? >> i mean, well, one, they shouldn't be fighting like that. these are members of congress that are elected or that are elected to represent the american people. so that is gross in its own display on both sides of the aisle there. but i do think this is going to be the achilles heel for democrats. this has been made to be an issue that democrats writ large, care more about trans issues that do impact such a small percentage of people. then they care about their cost of groceries. it was very wide known in the election that that was one of the issues. and and that the ad that played this is going to be the achilles heel. so if democrats do not learn how to speak about this, they will continue to lose ground on this, regardless of how many people it impacts. >> and they didn't speak about it during the election. they were essentially muted. it does seem like part of this, looking at that clip is about stoking divisions and sort of anger in the country. when

sports, but the issue of trans rights came up at another unrelated hearing, in which republican nancy mace and democrat jasmine crockett squared off and just a heads up, some of the language here is pretty vulgar i find it extremely rich and offensive. >> so we're talking about civil rights coming from a party that can't define what a woman is and won't give women the right to privacy. you all want men with, chicks with dicks in the bathroom with us. >> i can see that somebody's campaign coffers really are struggling right now. so she's going to keep saying trans, trans, trans so that people will feel threatened and child, listen, i want you to. i am no child. >> do not call me a child. >> i am no child. i won't even start out i'm a grown. which of those emails actually have ceilings, chairman? i am reclaiming my time. >> you will not do that. >> order a child. i am not a child in my time. >> if you want to take it outside, mr. chairman, ladies and gentlemen, your congress at work. >> thank you very much for watching news night. cnn's coverage continues next. >> good evening. we are coming
