[applause] mr. gingrich: thank you.irst of all, thank you all, very, very much. i am delighted to be here, we drove in watching the video that was made for your 50th anniversary which is a remarkable video. and amazingly beautiful. so richard nixon had a huge impact on my life. people often forget in retrospect that nixon was the preeminent modern republican, in the 1940's and 1950's and early 1960's. he represented a kind of very hard-working, very professional, very serious commitment to growing a republican party coming out from under the period of fdr, the domination of roosevelt. i had the great opportunity to go and visit with him several times when we were trying to think through how to become a majority, he said two things that profoundly affected us, that were clearly part of how we were able to put the whole majority together. first, he said, the house republicans are boring. [laughter] this was in the early 1980's. and he said -- and i can't quite immitate his voice but you can hear it in your head, he said t

joining us now, newt gingrich. it's pretty remarkable developments that at dam laxalt is odds on favorite in nevada. we have a highway now for blake masters based on new numbers. we have more outstanding votes tonight. 400,000 of the 650 outstanding are day-of handed in ballots that blake masters have been winning 68% of those. that's an interesting story tonight. and then the run-off in georgia, a state you know well. your thoughts on all of it. newt gingrich. >> i think this is the wildest election of my entire career. >> sean: 1994 was a big night. >> it was. in 2014 when we won, reince priebus asked me to develop a review to figure out. i think ronna mcdaniel, the chair of the rnc ought to set up a similar review committee. apparently house republicans got five or six middle more votes than democrats but didn't translate in to the same comparable number of seats. we need to examine that apparently some incumbents lost that shouldn't have. no incumbent lost in 2020 with kevin mccarthy's leadership and no republi

newt gingrich, thank you for being with us. we appreciate it. when we come back, anti-covid lockdown protests are sweeping through china as president xi in trouble and the administration has a predictably weak response. we'll show you. and fauci's failures are going to come to light. we'll put it together for clay travis and dr. nicole sapphire, straight ahead. have gone all in on lockdowns and releasing massive violations against innocent citizens as residents are being locked into their own homes and apartments unable to leave all facing severe punishment and prosecution. if they dare to question any of this. sadly, it appears to only be getting worse. as a new warning is suggesting, lockdowns are about to intensify. they're standing for freedom refusing to go on with the lockdowns. but the biden administration has nothing to say at all. why don't they stand in solidarity with the people who believe in freedom. take a look. >> what do you think when they hear the chinese shouting freedom. >> the president is not going to speak for protesters a

newt gingrich, former speaker of the house joins us with more. i think that's the funny part of it.l outraged about it, but they set the standard. now the rules apply to them and they don't like it. >> that is typical of the democrats. they think if they cheat it is okay. if you are honest, you must be cheating. i think pelosi at the time i said this was a terrible precedent. this sets the stage for the majority party to decide who gets to serve on every committee and she went ahead and did it. all of these folks supported her in doing it. now it has come back around to bite them. frankly, the three people that the speaker designated mccarthy has picked are perfect examples. omar is an openly anti- anti-semitic, anti- israeli bigot. she certainly should not be in the foreign relations committee. eric swalwell has various relations with chinese who are supposed to be spies. he certainly should not be on the intelligence committee. and frankly, if i could have done it i would have had them on no committee at all. schiff is a liar. he was the chairman of the intelligence committee. he

newt gingrich represented georgia. knows the state as well as anyone.learly in that answer. how did you hear it? >> first of all, just for a moment paul pelosi in our prayers. always nice to us. terrible what has happened in san francisco and i feel compelled following that report to just say we should all keep paul in our prayers and hope he recovers fully. look, stacey abrams -- i tweeted about this. i'm working on a paper about the two wings of the democratic party. the weird wing and the insane wing. she is clearly in the insane wing. does anybody really believe that there are sheriffs who get up every morning hoping to arrest blacks and take them off the street? it is a wild hallucination. it tells you about this alternative universe that stacey abrams lives in that has no relationship to the real world. and so saying she had never been defeated. the same universe to say they should move the all-star game away from atlanta, which hurt minority-owned small businesses and may have cost $1 hundred million to small businesses in atlanta. so this is sor

not 40 to 70 that newt gingrich was talking about. it will be a good-sized number.t is behaving normally now. it was just this two-month periods of time. host: what about the senate? guest: i think the senate is going to be a very, very close call. a half-dozen races that are extremely close, but i think the odds of democrats holding on are slipping away. it could happen, but we had a lot of surprise elections the last few years. in this environment, if democrats hold onto anything they will have the abortion issue, donald trump and republican primary voters dominating -- nominating some exotic and potentially probable limit -- problematic people. no matter how good a night they have, i think they're going to be leaving some seats on the table because there are some key races where they nominated people who were just, let's just say sub optimal. a pups -- a placebo might win, but they may have nominated a sub placebo kind of candidate. host: what races should we be watching to see who's going to be in control? guest: i would look at four. arizona, nevada, -- no, nev

he worked with newt gingrich, and beat newt gingrich had his own game and some extent -- to some extent. can joe biden do such a thing? >> it depends on how you defined left of center and how you define the center. >> we have seen this more than once, we saw the same thing with barack obama, barack obama got hammered in 2010, lot -- a loss to the house and senate. i think it's important to remember that the clinton come back, started his recovery, wasn't a compromise with the republican majority, in fact, a fight in which he exposed the republican majority as being more aggressive than the american people wanted on issues like medicare, medicaid, and other levels of social spending. so i think, first of all. the fact that it was a good result for democrats, and unexpectedly good result for democrats, increases the pressure on biden to stand aside and not run, but also to change course. i do thought -- i do think more so than in the past, the democratic party occupies issues that are of concern to americans. most of the things that joe biden did were popular. but there were atmospheric c

newt gingrich joining us with the post game show, newt, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> steve:unshine for republicans in florida with victories all across the one-time swing state. we are going to hear from anna paw lena luna who flipped a house seat red and talk about ron desantis big win in miami-dade county. my active psoriatic arthritis can slow me down. now, skyrizi helps me get going by treating my skin and joints. along with significantly clearer skin, skyrizi helps me move with less joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and fatigue. and skyrizi is just 4 doses a year after two starter doses. skyrizi attaches to and reduces a source of excess inflammation that can lead to skin and joint symptoms. with skyrizi, 90% clearer skin and less joint pain is possible. serious allergic reactions and an increased risk of infections or a lower ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine, or plan to. with skyrizi, there's nothing like the feeling of improving my skin and joints... ...and that means everything. now's the time to tal

and they got a lot done, democratic president and newt gingrich during that era. >> to your point, to yes, i think that's where you will see joe biden go. but we in 2022 are in very, very different waters. and while the biden white house just released that statement, you might want to take a look at kevin mccarthy's twitter feed. his penned tweet. this is the thing he wants everyone to say is not exactly the same message. president biden is trying to divide and deflect at a time when america needs to unite because he can't talk about his policies that have driven up the cost of living. the american people aren't buying it. so all i would say is not so fast. >> well, he's still running for a job. and that was from a week ago. but he still is very much in the fight of his life really for the speakership. and we do not know what is going to happen. there's no projections that we can make about what's going to happen in that vote in january. we've seen many speakers after newt gingrich left, we thought bob livingston would be the speaker, but that didn't happen. >> kevin mccarthy not so l

. >> you have president clinton science you go to the election of 1994 newt gingrich takes control the house. i think they were at 58 maybe republican member of a big majority of house republicans in that case it. that the bill clinton begin to attack there was the reform of welfare for example, is that defensive marriage act on those indications wherect the presidet doesn't attack toward the republican view to get something passed like that? >> absolutely. that congress with president clinton democrat and newt gingrich republican speaker, realizing they could either stand apart and get nothing done, each come to the middle and get a lot done. >> are there issues that in a similar situation with the president joe biden and a likely speaker of the house there. >> that is a really good question and i do not know. i think a lot depends on what kind of deals kevin mccarthy has to cut to gain the speakership. he's arty got marjorie taylor greene, republican of georgia. considered one of the pro- trump upstarts in the house for his already got hurt in his camp. but there's t a bunch of other

mark meadows, lindsey graham, newt gingrich. she's going to get testimony from all of them.. is there anybody we haven't talked about who you think would be central to the investigation and maybe has not been subpoenaed yet? >> i think folks largely have been subpoenaed. it's a question of whether they will actually testify. i'm specifically talking about some of the alleged fake electors that she has indicated she wanted to hear from. i think they would be very critical not only in outlining what their actions were in terms of signing the documents and ultimately being delivered to the national archives on january 6 to be counted in lieu of the actual votes from the biden electors. i think those folks again would not only be able to provide insight about their own actions, but also who if anybody asked them to participate in this scheme. and that may reach people higher up in the trump circle. but again, none of us know that at this point. only the special grand jury would have that information and the district attorney hopes to hear and gather more testimony. >> it is your

author of defeating big government socialism newt gingrich. mr.think about the statements about removing these democrats from their committees? >> well, along, i think nancy pelosi set the precedent, she did something that never had been done before. and reached in to the minority party to decide who could and could not serve in some committees. i think kevin mccarthy is following her precedence. the democrats have nothing to complain about because they started this dance and, frankly, the three people who he has picked. so totally deserve being kicked off committees, it's unbelievable. schiff, adam schiff made a career out of lying to the american people while serving as chairman of the intelligent committee without any question. just plain flat out lying. swalwell has had a relationship with a chinese communist that's unimaginable for somebody who is going to have security clearance and, of course, omar is a viciously anti-israel, anti-semitic aura tore who has consistently violated the norms of civilized behavior. i think those are three let pr

that congress with president clinton, democrat, and newt gingrich, republican speaker, realizing that they could either stand apart and get nothing done or each come to the middle and get a lot done, which is what they did. host: are there issues that -- in a similar situation, with president joe biden and a likely speaker of the house, kevin mccarthy? guest: there's a really good question. i don't't know. i think a lot depends on what kind of deal --->> the washington journal fulfilling the committee to live gavel to gavel commitment of congress and watch this online any time on cspan.org and take you live to the u.s. senate where lawmakers are returning from thanksgiving holiday break. senators will continue work today on marriage equality legislation with a vote set for 5:30 p.m. eastern time to limit debate on the bill. live coverage of the senate here on cspan2. ...

of georgia because newt gingrich is someone close to donald trump, talking him up. a lieutenant governor of georgia is not someone we've heard from. we are at a real inflection point clearly the elites in the party are done with trump. we have to look at this to know just where the elites in the gop are. that doesn't mean it translates to the base. i think trump is at his most vulnerable he has been since january 6th. but whether somebody moves forward against him we'll see. >> when will we know and how? i'm not saying what month but what indicates to you that we'll know if this time is different. >> among other things, these races not settled have to be settled. so if kari lake wins, if blake masters pulls it out, although that looks harder to see, the senate race in alaska that was a key target of his because of impeachment, that will be telling if his candidates pull it out, it's going to be he had a rough night in pennsylvania and a few other specific spots. if not, you are looking -- a lot of these candidates had tougher races than they should have. we will kno

they lost the house and newt gingrich became speaker and called it the republican revolution.ical team going through right now knowing that if the polls are right, at least the house is going to be gong and he will be -- this will be -- the bill clinton presidency was fundamentally different when newt gingrich became different. how might the biden presidency be fundamentally different? >> well, you'd have to prepare. first off it does look more likely than not the house will swing republican. they only have to gain five seats and the average historically is over 30. so that's a really tough one. the democrats now are doing just what scott said, triage requires that you first defend your own before you advance so they're trying to protect democrats who are already in office from getting swept out but you're right. we lost 53 seats in the clinton midterm. by the way, obama lost 63. trump lost 42 so this should be with inflation higher and the president less popular, this should be 70, 80, 90. it's not going to be because mr. trump has fallen into so many of these races and disgr

here is what newt gingrich and paul ryan said yesterday. >> we have to do a lot of soul searching and head scratching and parsing the numbers as to why we didn't perform as well as we would have liked to have. >> why do you think it is? >> i think trump is a drag on our ticket. i think donald trump gives us problems politically. we lost the house, the senate, the white house in two years when trump was on the ballot or in office. i think we have some trump hangover. i think he's a drag on our offices. >> i think governor desantis is the biggest single winner of the night and he will almost certainly become the rallying point for everybody in the republican party who wants to move beyond president trump, which would make for a pretty remarkable race. >> write that in. newt. >> desantis. just need a board. start checking them off. >> trump. desantis. very good. >> about five minutes. let's bring in republican congressman adam kinzinger of illinois, a member of the select committee investigating the january 6th attack on the capitol. congressman, good morning. thanks for being with us. y

former house speaker newt gingrich weighing in on the runoff stressing the importance, what it meansce of power. listen to this. >> based on the early voting we saw on saturday, that republicans were turning out at least as much as democrats. it was a huge turnout statewide. a lot of republicans are beginning to realize being 50-50 is very different than being 51-49 in the senate. at 50-50, you have power sharing on every single committee. at 51-49, the democrats control every single committee. cheryl: joining me now sarah westwood from "the washington examiner. sarah, this runoff in georgia illustrates what we're seeing today play out in washington when this rail strike bills goes over to the senate, it is a slim, it's a tight majority. we still have kamala harris as the tiebreaker. this could tip the scales one way or the other. it could be very meaningful after the first of the year. >> that's right. the 50-50 split, sort of allowed senator joe manchin from west virginia, moderate democrat dictate what democrats could or could not pass. he single-handedly watered down the build ba

somebody money than they should have to do something in return for so i like what bill clinton and newt gingrich in the 90s. we're going to provide you bu with the funding but you have to be looking for work or a job or training and we've moved away from right now and i think that's been a big mistake. that's a lot of the reason workers kick businesses can get workers, we are paying welfare benefits so we don't expect them to do anything in return . >> what's the difference in the importance of government debtand government government deficit . >> the deficit is the amount of the excess of the spending over the amount of revenue so think of it as your personal finance. if you make $2000 in a month, and then you spend $2500, you have a $500 deficit. and that's what we've been running. what is the debt? the national debt is the human relation overtime of all those deficits so we are now depending on how you measure it there's a lot of ways you can measure our debt but at least $20-$30 trillion of debt. that's again going back to 1980, 45. at that time that was less than 2 trillion and nowwe're up

okay, newt gingrich, thank you. we have a great show coming up when we come back . you won't believe the latest spin that biden is trying to put on his economic crisis. senator ted cruz will weigh in later. florida governor ronda santos out campaigning with lee zeldin, and they both join us live. and could the deep blue state of new york actually elect a republican governor ? because zeldin, the republican candidate, is now ahead in a brand new poll. and guess what? tooter dixon is beating gretchen whitmer in the latest poll of michigan. tooter dixon checks in tonight as well. straight diamonds at bargain prices have curatola. here's our four ninety nine one carat, 992 carat, nine ninety four carat plus one carat stud's five ninety nine . and the guaranteed lowest price on thousands of diamonds by direct the jewelry exchange . do you struggle to fall asleep and stay asleep? i'll sleep. support has a unique blend of five key ingredients that can help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer so you can wake up refreshed. qnol, the brand i trust. . hey, i just got a

they swerve toward ross perot in 1992 but newt gingrich brings them back in 1994. they are defendants anyway, the trump silent majority, the forgotten man. another group as well comes into the right in the 1970s, the neoconservatives. these were liberal anti-communists, democrats who for the same reasons as the hardhats found themselves out of sync with their allies on the left and the democratic party, not all of them make the migration to the republican party in the 1970s when irving kristol endorses richard nixon in 1972, it is a scandal, many of his fellow neoconservatives don't make the jump into the well into the 1980s. but these neoconservative intellectuals who are often well positioned within the liberal establishment now are moving, migrating to the right and so the "national review" conservatives have to decide how do these neocons fit into the picture. i've always remembered the moment i read during research and editorial in spring of 1971 and "national review" responding to essays and commentary magazine clearly indicative of the editor commentary at t

former republican house speaker newt gingrich, saying in the past year you could argue she's been the strongest speaker in history . my dear husband, paul. it's been my beloved partner in life and my pillar of support. thank you. we're all grateful for all the prayers and well wishes. pelosi also acknowledging her husband palm, still recovering after being savagely attacked in their san francisco home late last month. as pelosi steps down, the gop is gearing up to take control in the new year. we're not trying to prove hunter biden is a bad actor. he is house republicans revealing a top priority. investigating the president and his family promising to look into the finances of hunter, biden and others which some in the party are advising against. i think it would be over republicans to focus on issues you know the kitchen table issues maybe investigate, you know. gas prices, inflation, grocery prices. and the white house, agreeing with calls for republicans to tackle kitchen table issues denouncing congressional republicans for quote, wasting time and resources on political revenge. a

l get newt former speaker of the house newt gingrich, we'll get his g take on a plusingricon it.. stunning new scenes out of china. look at that protest is now taking to the streets against the country's oppressive communi communist dictatorship, risking life and limb. some demonstrators , by the way, echoing patrick henry, give me k liberty or give me death. people are bravely calling for president xi to be removed from power. e joe biden, of course, missing nt in action, nowhere to be found,g not standing u up for the freed fighters in china. w the self-proclaimed defender of democracy, i guessbe he can't be bothered to weigh in. now, for months, w botheree havm a similar level of moral cowardice from biden when it came to iran. the iranians have been protesting. we have the video for monthsg. after one woman was murdered for not properly wearing her head scarf.nths a woman was murdered for but joe biden, champion, great champion of women's rights, n' doesn't seem to carry evenrights the cowardly un . they're speaking outt against the mullahs, but not joe biden. meanwhile, in ea

let's say we pick up 20 seats that puts us at 233, three more than the republicans had with newt gingrich became speaker in january of 1995. i think, i've been saying 20 20 - 25 and i'm thinking were 20 than 25, 95025 and 20 critical be larger than that because at the end the gravitational forces of the election all tend to work to the advantage of one party. in the selection poor economy and the bad job approval in a sense that he is out of touch and all of these things are helping the republican. >> again on the economy we saw good job number on friday. wages were up but there's still way behind inflation, that's really the important thing, the democrats don't seem to get they can't brag about wage growth when people go out and still think their salaries are not buying as much as they used to. >> it was entered was a good job number on friday, the other hand inside the businesses that these people working in think is a growing sense of the economy is slowing and in the future there will be job losses. some of it is from the headlines. elon musk says and get afire all these people at twi

newt gingrich takes control of the house. the majority was big.fter that though clinton began to tap towards the center. there was they were a form for example. the defense of marriage act was defense of where a republican -- was the defense of marriage act an example of a president tacking more to the party in power? guest: they realized they could stand apart and get nothing done, or they could each come to the middle and get a lot done, which is what they did. host: in a similar -- are there issues in a similar situation with joe biden and a likely speaker of the house kevin mccarthy? guest: i don't know. it depends on what kind of deals kevin mccarthy has to cut to when the speakership. he -- to win the speakership. he already has marjorie taylor greene in his camp, but there are a bunch of others we do not know. it is too soon to say what coming to the middle we will be able to see. since bill clinton was president, this country has become more polarized. we saw that under barack obama. when he lost control of congress after his first midterm

even former republican speaker newt gingrich said you could argue she's been the strongest speaker inry. cbs's scott macfarlane will start us off tonight from capitol hill. good evening, scott. >> reporter: good evening, norah. speaker pelosi says she'll continue representing san francisco in congress next year, but for the first time in two decades, she will not be a party leader. it's an historic announcement but also one with a profound, immediate impact here. with republicans set to take control of the u.s. house in january, nancy pelosi, the outsized political force for a generation, said it was time for her to step back. >> for me, the hour has come for a new generation to lead the democratic caucus that i so deeply respect. >> reporter: the announcement comes just weeks after a violent attack against her 82-year-old husband paul pelosi in san francisco, allegedly by a conspiracy theorist who was targeting her. >> for my dear husband paul who has been my beloved partner in life and my pillar of support, thank you, we're all grateful for all the prayers and well wishes as he cont

. >> reporter: even newt gingrich in the past year saying you could argue she's been the stronge est speaker in history. pelosi's announcement comes nearly three weeks after her husband was viciously attacked in their san francisco home. >> for my dear husband paul who has been my partner in life and pillar of support, thank you. we're all grateful for all the prayers and well wishes as he continues his recovery. thank you so much. >> reporter: pelosi says she will remain in congress, just not in leadership. in january, republicans take power, but only with a slim majority. >> last week, the american people spoke, and their voices were raised in defense of liberty, of the rule of law, and of democracy itself. >> no question, rachel, an historic run for speaker pelosi. and rachel scott with us live. i know there's a clear front-runner tonight in the race to succeed nancy pelosi? >> reporter: yes, david. and the front-runner is congressman hakeem jeffries of new york. if elected by house democrats, he would be the first black lawmaker to lead a party in congress. pelosi will still have

but newt gingrich said basically the same thing recently. what will pelosi is legacy be? >> jagr and i think that's a good point. look at in 1974, there's a new type of member that's elected to congress after the watergate scandal. a more a more urban, more photogenic, a kind of modernize, the current connor, the congress as an institution. 1994. obviously gingrich does with with his contract with america and you have kind of this fast forward of of how you think about american politics. how much change the last 20 or 30 years in kind of that modern era, how it's trying to keep up. and nancy pelosi legacy has been there as someone who has been 4th and move forward on all of the key pieces of legislation tart, what happened in the crash in 2007, 2008, 2009. you know, you think about what's happened in terms of of covid relief and key legislation, obama and after than republicans take in 2010 and all these moments where she has been part of huge pieces of legislation that have modernized the democratic party and what they try to do government and have place at she's also so

newt gingrich won a landslide when he was working for president clinton.ht into the politics of personal destruction. what did it do? it reelected bill clinton. because bill clinton stood up and said he was interested in legislation they were interested in investigations that crush the revolution that was far more powerful than kevin mccarthy who had a five seat majority. it's a total loser for them. as a partisan. i want to. i would work with biden to get things done. >> political majority and political mandate are 2 different things. >> you remember covering this with the tea party caucus. >> kevin mccarthy or whoever the speaker is has their work cut out for them. it's not about the investigations are pressure to go after the biden administration there are a number of issues where they have to rely on democratic votes raising the debt ceiling to keep the government open and avert the shut down and all of this things when the freedom caucus will rally again. it will be a wild ride. statement that negotiation might have to include the democratic leader an
