so, that is not a name i'm entertaining. >> patrick mchenry? >> not for me.many names that are coming about, patrick mchenry is a great guy. but you'll see many names of all in this because we're showing that we have a menu of people. and maybe patrick mchenry comes to us and tells us, hey, these are really great rules. these are great policies that you're wanting to bring to the floor. maybe he puts the right personnel on the right committees. and maybe he is the guy. maybe it's someone who is not in congress. maybe it's someone like a kevin hern, who is the chairman of the republican study committee, who is actually produced a balanced budget that we want to see go to the floor. i don't know what these names are, but i'm sure you're going to see a lot of names beginning to emerge, because we are showing that we're willing to work to unify the republican party and get the right person. >> okay, sure. and maybe it's going to be me and kim kardashian and anyone else who can be out there. >> sure, will nominate you tomorrow. >> how long are you willing to wait?

when i asked patrick mchenry about that do you expect another vote after this one, he said, i do. that was the expectation going in. now they, of course, need to have all 218 members, 218 votes to adjourn the house. unclear if they would have that and take a break to negotiate further offline. if they don't have 218 to adjourn they're required to go to another speaker vote and c could see that after this. these negotiations probably are going to happen as these votes wrap up behind the scene in the cloakroom and in office just off the house floor. mccarthy has been occupying it as they try to nail down the final votes and finally claim the speakership, anderson. >> thanks. we'll check back in with you. back in new york, scott perry obviously a big -- as the leader of the freedom caucus, that is a big switch. >> i think scott perry is big, chip roy, some of -- byron donalds, gosar, all of these are big get, norman and i think the difference is now other than you're not going to have kevin mccarthy and his lieutenants going around twisting arms. you'll have these 14 people who just

i just mentioned patrick mchenry. a key negotiator.rying to lock in support for mccarthy for speaker he just said the house is not going to adjourn any time soon. are you prepared go all night? >> i'm a combat veteran and served in law enforcement for 30 years. i can be here until july. >> is that a metaphor for how you fweel this? is your support for kevin mccarthy -- there is nothing that can break or shake it at this point? >> i don't know if you are aware, young lady, but i'm a member of the caucus. i'm a america first patriots. i said to my friends, my colleagues in the freedom caucus that i don't believe that this is the battle we should be waging. i think the real battle starts when we start drafting legislation and policy in the 118th congress under a speaker kevin mccarthy. you have to understand, the viewers have to understand, there is 35-40 of us in the house freedom caucus. if we have a simple small thin margin of 222 republicans it takes 218 of us to pass any legislation. right? the house freedom caucus is more relevant t

patrick mchenry the republican from north carolina has asked them to go out until noon on monday buthen again the first order of business at that point would either be to adjourn or to take that 15th ballot. but they are short right now. so what they probably want to do is take a timeout. you know, this was a pretty intense set of conversations on the floor. the problem is, does kevin mccarthy lose anybody? do you have people not show up? each vote is going to be different. the mathis going to be different if you have different people's dispositions. does wesley hunt have to travel again. how is ken buck's health? you have three other ken bucks. are democrats all there? at some point these levies break and shift. that's why it is algebra when you try to get this speaker vote set up here. so we'll see -- now, keep in mind, they might not go out. if they do not vote to adjourn, they have to immediately go to that 15th ballot. so here in the next 10 or 15 minutes we'll know what's going on but we have to wait until they close this vote trace. >> thank you chad we'll get back to you in m

patrick mchenry okay? >> harris: close to patrick mccombs so i'm happy. >> bill: chip roi is a republican from texas with ten or 11 votes in his back pocket, if chip roy were to come over that would get mccarthy closer to the wind but still, it would leave them shy on the current number of that seven or eight. if you are watching last night mccarthy came out and talked, chet is one of them and he asked him whether or not he will be a weaker speaker which is a heck of a phrase right now. >> harris: and it rhymes. >> bill: he would said why would that be and chad said we haven't seen this in hundred 50 years and he said i want to make history but remember mccarthy's on the floor of the house when he delivered were the longest speech is recorded in history of the house of representatives. he is braced for this right now. but there is a really good chance if you want to drop in here? >> harris: let's drop in and brace for this. let's watch. >> the question recurs upon the election of a speaker. the tellers wil

patrick mchenry poised to be chairman of the house financial services committee. it is unclear about they could get enough vote among republicans if mccarthy can't. that is the problem. first past the post. he has the most votes in the republican conference by far. you will have a lower bar, lower ability like someone like tom coal, patrick mchenry to get to 218, whatever the magic number is. that is why the first vote starting in the house of representatives is so important. that tells you how big the house is. doesn't start automatically at 434. you try to get 434 people in the same room at same time. there are absences, people are sick, their flight didn't arrive. there is never perfect attendance. neil: that is the way kevin mccarthy could win. so call members of kevin mccarthy calls it, decide to be absent or sick today, some way that would lower the number about kevin mccarthy would need, would it not? >> this is helped john boehner win the speakership in 2013. there was a similar insurrection among republicans. knot nearly as intense as this, the house came

you already have leaders in the party like, patrick mchenry, saying you know what, we're going to have to do this. >> but why do you have to be in the biden district? why would somebody in the clearly red district give a hoot about arcana me? >> because for about 15 years the big talk about the debt ceiling, right? and this is a problem of overspending. and we are a massive debt and people understand the idea of debt. so there's a general idea that you can spend more money when you have that. clearly, these are things that we already paid for. >> let's also be really clear. this was not just democrats spending money. they're spending all sorts of it when republicans were in office. jen, do you believe that the white house, announcing that it's right? do you believe that they are under pressure to do something to negotiate because this can send our most dangerous game of economic chicken? >> here's what is on the mind, back in 2011, which allowed them have been through it when the vice president. i know you have cover this closely to. and just a negotiation, and the uncertainty, lets it

. >> this is obviously the man who was nominated by the rebels talking to patrick mchenry who is one of kevin mccarthy's key allies, also one of the go teens here. and has been, you know, mentioned as a potential speaker of the house, i mean, for many years but in the context of this. >> mchenry, i believe, gave a silver bowl to kevin mccarthy, an homage to his favorite show "the wire" in which the mayoral character in that gets a bowl full of ex-vcrement and that is the job of being speaker. you have to eat bowl after bowl of this was the reference to that and kevin mccarthy's getting the contents of the bowl, if not the bowl itself yet. >> but, jake, to your point this is an erosion of support for kevin mccarthy. even though it didn't go to donalds and the rebels, it went away from kevin mccarthy and we have all heard, let's be honest, that patrick mchenry has been considered a dark horse to be a potential draftee for speaker. >> now you see tom emmer who ran the house campaign committee and a lot of republicans are furious with him because they thought they would win more seats in

other names that are more likely are steve scalise, the current number two house republican, patrick mchenry, chairman of the financial services committee. but there is hesitation from those people to throw their name into the ring until it is clear mccarthy will fail because they do not want to create this rift between themselves and kevin mccarthy. alix: thank you very much. laura davidson on the update. coming up, sam bankman-fried on the verge of entering a not guilty plea. the latest from the courthouse. this is bloomberg. ♪ [office sounds] ♪upbeat music♪ ♪♪ ♪when the day that lies ahead of me♪ ♪♪ ♪seems impossible to face♪ ♪a lovely day (lovely day)♪ ♪(lovely day) (lovely day)♪ ♪(lovely day)♪ a bank that knows your business grows your business. bmo. alix: this is "bloomberg markets ." i am alix steel with amber kanwar. sam bankman-fried is expected to plead not guilty to criminal charges at his arraignment in lower new york. this is one of the high profile fraud charges in recent years. sonali basak is in lower manhattan with the latest. what are you learning? sonali: there are a fair

we hear the conversations around between people patrick mchenry and bishop from north carolina come up with the bishop has been a no vote. obviously, mchenry is an ally of mccarthy and they are trying to bring him over the finish line. they will go one by one with the individual to see if they can make this happen in the next round or several pounds after that. >> sandra: sandra here, this was ronna who joined us first as the vote was happening earlier. i will get your reaction to this. >> okay. speak with the people in the country are looking at this and stating, why do mike what is going on and why can't this party get it together to hold biden accountable? the people who elected us are being let down. that is what they see because of these holdouts refusing to elect a speaker of the house the first time in 100 years. >> that is a big statement and certainly look like this heading into this vote and the reality is actually worse than some had feared with 19 voting for others, other than mccarthy in this vote. we know, obviously, this will go into a second ballot. but martha, you are

so right now the lieutenant for mccarthy, congressman patrick mchenry of north carolina, who's done so much to wrangle votes for mccarthy has made a motion to adjourn congress until monday at noon eastern. and we are seeing if that happens. it seems likely that it will given the fact matt gaetz was asking for adjournment until monday and the mccarthy people were also asking for adjournment until monday. >> i would like to first give you my apologies -- >> i don't think our viewers know i had the 14th ballot down as the most likely for which mccarthy would become speaker. >> each of these six members had the possibility of making this happen, and they didn't. i'd like to add one other person to that, and that's kevin mccarthy himself. because we're here today in great part because of his trying to appease this group for a long, long time. it wasn't just the trip down to mar-a-lago to try to get trump's support. he has been playing what i would say is a dangerous game with this group. >> let's also just, i think, call this what it is, which is the most stunning defeat for kevin mccarthy

patrick mchenry, who has been the chief negotiator here, a top deputy, longtime ally to kevin mccarthy, is sitting next to gaetz right now in the chamber, wanting to be a fly on that wall. i love we have images that we don't normally have. this is another moment for you, like they do in the nfl, and give us a deeper view here, because these are the conversations that could potentially either make or break it. so, that's the huddle that we're looking at right now on the floor. >> all right, we still have a way to go before we -- there we go, kevin mccarthy just voted for himself. getting a lot of applause, as if that was a surprise. but we are still waiting on -- mac rosendale from montana, not vermont, montana. and then, we're waiting on bucks vote, gaetz and gosar. let's take a quick break. we're not going to we'll -- be back, when everything happens. we'll take a quick break. you can rifle your coffee, or whatever you are drinking. and we'll be here when you get back. back step up. prep up. to help keep you free from the risk of hiv. descovy for prep, the smallest prep pill available

that list includes congressman brian fitzpatrick, gary graves, patrick patrick mchenry. >>> joining ushe prospects of a deal molly paul and doug heiss. doug, i spoke to don bacon a few minutes ago on this broadcast, of course, republican who has been involved in some of these negotiations. he said preliminary talks are under way with democrats about the possibility of finding a consensus candidate. i'm affair how much of a long shot that is given that you would have to have both parties helping each other but is that at least a possibility that they might not get anywhere and therefore they have to work together on a speaker? >> it's about as small possibility as there is, but as they said famously in a movie, so you're saying there's a chance. there's a chance, it's a very small one. what's interesting now is this group of five people and patrick mchenry from north carolina is i think maybe the smartest member of congress that i've worked with, are looking at options as to negotiating with the troublemakers within the gop conference, potentially democrats if it comes to that pass and

one reporter was quoting patrick mchenry - r of north carolina who said we are headed into talks on the speaker race. a writer who has written a biography on trump said that trump facilitated a direct call between scott perry and kevin mccarthy on tuesday night, which he was also on. perry is part of the negotiations with mccarthy, but has voted against him multiple times. maggie haberman goes on to to tweet that trump has been making calls but not putting the hard sell on even when some hardliners told him they would vote for kevin mccarthy if he asked them. >> we continue to wait for the official results of the eighth vote on the speakership. from cnn, the normally red member says, we are frustrated as hell. we can't cave in to demands to people who have no interest in governing or any clue how to do it. and representative andy biggs, one of the leaders of the anti-mccarthy faction tweets, this house should always be disengaged instead of rubberstamping all bills coming through it.

then you can drop down to patrick mchenry may be, a financial services guy out of north carolina.dan is a name you hear a lot. he is a conservative firebrand from ohio. he has gotten some votes from these hardliners, but that comes into a problem that of the people who are mccarthy allies do not want to give in to people that the hardliners like. another name i keep on my list is elise stefanik of new york. she is a rising profile, started coming into congress as a paul ryan acolyte. has very much turned into a big donald trump supporter, so that is a name to watch. let's say everything breaks down. if you have to put a coalition together which is not precedented but you have seen happen in a couple of states, if there is some way that democrats start bailing things out, there is a republican moderate who i have heard might be palatable to all sides paid i expect republicans will work very hard to nominate one of their own, so that will be a big edge case. francine: thank you so much. bloomberg's derek wallbank on the latest from the u.s.. let's get to the latest on the bluebird f

okay maybe it's patrick mchenry.about 1988, when the caulk with us -- then the gop dennis hastert became speaker as option number three, but if it's not mchenry, what might happy? the mainstream gop could do something outside the box, main the anti-mccarthy gop choice, the very conservative jim jordan, or maybe you might get a coalition government with some democrats joining the republicans, perhaps nominating a more moderate. look, it took 133 ballots back in 1855 to 1866, so this could go on for a long time. they agreed back then to a plurality vote. >> that would be an interesting compromise. harry enten, thank you. >>> we have a update on jeremy renner, in his first comments, as well as a picture he shared since a traumatic c snowplow incicident >>> well, some relief this morning, jeremy renner is thanking fans in his first social media post since a snowplow accident. the "hawkeye" actor included a selfie. >> chloe has keeping us updated. you learned more about what happened. >> there was a press conference yeste

names like steve scalise, maybe patrick mchenry, who runs the finance committee. then becomes those individuals will need to not back mccarthy now, so it is difficult. mccarthy would have to back out first before you had anyone coalescing around those individuals. also a chance he tries to cut a deal with the democrats, which would be a hail mary, if the democrats were willing to do it, voting present on the floor, so lowering that threshold on the floor to get that majority. guy: we knew this congress would be difficult, we didn't expect this kind of gridlock. thank you very much. joining us now for an insider look at what is happening here, ambassador max baucus. he spent 35 years on capitol hill as the montana senator, former u.s. ambassador to china. mr. ambassador, thank you for your time. how do you see this story developing? max: there are several obvious points here. number one, the right wing is more and more emboldened. that is largely because districts, congressional districts today, most of them are not competitive. they are either deep blue or deep re

happily accepted his moment, but there is no effort among people who you would think that the patrick mchenry's or steve scalise, elie stefanik, people who are seen as potential leadership material, you don't see them plotting to make a move, or if they do, they're being so delicate and plotting about it and hoping that campaign could fall first, and i think the reason for that, is because it's not a job worth having, at least in the next couple of years. >> and to jonathan's point at the start, that this is not the end of a fight, a beginning of a fight, even if mccarthy does get the. all these ambitious folks, who are one round or two or three run shot in the ship, they know as well as the rest of us, everybody talking around town, that the person who wants up the speaker on the first day of congress does not necessarily have the backs out to be in the speaker on the last day of this congress. that's tour than ever with the concession that mccarthy made tonight. >> i guess in d. c., you have a donkey, the elephant and the scapegoat, there you go. there's another potential wrinkle in all of th

one interesting thing, too, i just learned is about a minute ago i just talk to patrick mchenry, partthe republican leadership on mccarthy's team on what happened, a handful of members, holdouts voted for somebody else, and that denied mccarthy the speakership. and the next vote, all six of them voted present. what happened there? he claimed that he was in discussions with matt gaetz. matt gaetz wanted to adjourn until monday because he wanted all those six votes to vote present. that's what mchenry says that gaetz didn't want a few members to vote present and a few members to vote for another candidate. the speaker for the past several couple of months and said he'd never become speaker, but nevertheless at the end of the day gaetz was working in some ways to help mccarthy by voting present. that would help him at the end of the day, so that was an interesting development which we learned here. also gaetz denied getting any sort of offer from the -- for voting present, for helping mccarthy. at the end of the day he said he was not offered a subcommittee chairmanship. kevin mccarthy d

patrick mchenry and representative emmer or, they work on the steel. they know they can get out of this. this is a weekly or regardless of who it is, unless they go if they tree moral land that tom is talking about where you get a democrat on board with an outside unity canada. >> does this make the more extreme or more moderate? they have to work more closely with the democrats to get something done? >> we were spoken to about this yesterday when it comes to the debt ceiling. everyone is talking about the fact that this just foreshadows how difficult those negotiations are going to be when it comes to raising the debt ceiling and everyone is concerned about thing on that cliff, the way we were in 2011. she is actually saying that a lot of these moderate republicans come from biden one districts. what they want to prove after these absolutely chaotic tobaccos on the house floor, being able to elect a speaker which we have not seen in a hundred years, it want to show they are able to govern and they are not paying fast -- playing fast and loose with cre

maybe steve scalise is the most likely, maybe patrick mchenry from north carolina, maybe there's someone else that fits that bill, but at this point all bets are off, because as luke pointed out, we are in the middle of a very chaotic situation, so it's impossible to predict. >> chaotic situations always take us back to one place, donald trump. he was supposed to be the key here, reed galen, and kevin mccarthy has been bending over backwards, kissing up, to kissing the ring of, since donald trump entered the scene, especially since january 6th. what does it say about the how are trump, that even with his endorsement, bupkis -- he couldn't deliver anything. >> it matters that trump has been silent on, this it is not encouraged matt gaetz -- he has privately. -- donald trump is the luckiest politician the history of the you needed united states. so if he was whipping votes on mccarthy's the half, you would know about. it -- take the loss and blame it him for it. that's exactly what he did in november. that's exactly what he's going to do now. he has no interest whatsoever in being behind s

it is what patrick mchenry, mccarthy ally and has been talked about as a fallback option, would rather of financial services. these guys have taken themselves out of the game because they recognize what it would be to try to herd the cats in this republican party. amy: accused by one young man after another of knowing about the sexual attacks on these young men within the wrestling team. >> that's right. that controversy has followed jordan for years. it does not seem to have uprooted any support for him within the republican party. i don't think that is the principal reason why jordan wants somewhat out of the limelight. in fact, there's plenty of evidence to suggest he rather enjoys having a lot of attention focused on him. i think it is more he recognizes that this republican party -- to answer your question -- isn't sure what it wants. what they're end game is in try to oppose kevin mccarthy suggest more of a political performanc art than it does any actual purpose or any actual ideological intent. amy: and those young wrestlers who accused congressman jordan were accusing him of k

i'm told congressman patrick mchenry of north carolina who is a kevin mccarthy deputy is doing owemans work out there trying to convince some of these reluctant individuals. there's congressman barr who was one of the big flippers. and we'll see what happens. i am not hearing right now of any news from my sources about any potential flips, but i guess for the mccarthy camp hope springs eternal. >> it's happening. whatever you want to call it. call it good old-fashioned bribery. it's happening on the floor right now. i got a text from a republican lawmaker in the mccarthy camp as this was starting saying, finally, now we just grind it out. >> yeah. >> i can't say this is going -- >> i think they want us to listen. >> mccarthy. >> biggs. jordan. >> that's a critical one. >> that was one of the seven we're looking at. >> we're keeping an eye on and one that they really feel like they need to flip if they're going to get where they need to go. >> mccarthy. >> i can't say this is all going to plan. it was certainly at least a few days -- >> jeffries. >> bishop of north carolina. mccarthy. >

now one of mccarthy's top allies patrick mchenry does believe there is a light at end of the tunnel but they still have miles to go. so it seems likely that we would need at least another round of voting after this one is over. but as of now, the 10th round of voting for speaker of the house is likely to end with kevin mccarthy failing his bid once more >> unbelievable. this is day three. just unbelievable. elon, thank you. in washington. >>> coming up on the show, bed bath and bankrupt. the retailer warning it may go out of the business. is this the first domino to fall for the end of the meme trade. more on that next. and later, constellation brand shares falling flat today. what could raise this stock's spirits. well we have a lot of them today and we're just getting started on "fast money." we'll be right back. i'm a vegas hotel. i know what you're thinking - it's cool, i don't want anything too serious either. just a fun, spontaneous thing. i'm looking for someone who will let loose. dress up a little. see a show. order the steak and the lobster. some people say i'm excessive, but

republican congressman patrick mchenry of north carolina is a mccarthy ally and has been part of theotiations. he confirms to nbc news that mccarthy has offered a series of concessions to the rebel group, but he refused to comment on the specifics. but after all that, congressman gaetz says that while he's happy with those concessions, it's still likely not enough to win over his vote for mccarthy telling nbc news, quote, i don't trust him. a spokesperson for mccarthy did not respond for request for comment. the same time, two major gop groups are now publicly backing mccarthy's bid for speaker after reaching a deal. so he got some good news there. club for growth and the congressional leadership fund both issued statements last night in support of mccarthy. that's a complete about-face from statements issued earlier this week from the two groups who had previously come out against mccarthy. "the new york post" points out one of the club of growth's major points of concern was the congressional leadership fund's ability to support primary challengers to incumbent republicans. club fo

. >> while we wait for some of these key people to come up, a word of praise for patrick mchenry of north carolina. if you're kevin mccarthy i think his work behind the scenes this week, his steadfast loyalty it's been -- you know, he's been right there and a rock for mccarthy. the fact he delivered the winning speech on probably the ballot here is probably not insignificant. and as this congress rolls on i think you'll see mchenry in the background there as one of mccarthy's key guys. >> certainly that was a pivotal position for the person who got this 14th round nominations. >> and he did sole jor on through a couple of jokes as he admitted but just did not play so well in the room as many -- >> he had the self-awareinness realize. >> we'll see if this is indeed the final round of voting. and we will see -- >> all right, so we're about to come up here to mr. biggs. let's listen. >> mccarthy, biggs, biggs, jordan. >> well, there goes my theory. >> okay. >> okay, hold on. let's just listen. boebert is going to come up here. let's listen. >> bishop of georgia, jeffries. bishop of north car

have to move to option number three, perhaps it will be the former white house gop deputy whip, patrick mchenry. he's between mccarthy and scalise. think back to 1999 when huh the similar sides in congress and it was the third option who became speaker. those are three potential options. >> those are three options but it feels like we're operating in a wild wild west here where no one knows what's going to happen. right now committees are going to have interim chairmen, no legislation going to get passed. it's at gridlock on the hill. >> could be the anti-mccarthy reps, jim jordan gets e lelelec by the moderates or you end up with the coalition with some democrats backing the more moderate republican or hakeem jeffries some reps are like we'll go with him, who knows what's going to happen. it's the wild wild west. >> thank you, speaks to the moment we're seeing here on capitol hill. >> and back to the details and chaos in a moment. >>> new details onda damar hamelin's fight for his life. his cuuncle describing to cnn h nephew's condition. >> his heart had went out so they had to resuscitate him

patrick mchenry was seen talking to her. i wonder if he was able to stop her from actually voting for someone else and present was where they landed. that's a bit of speculation. she's not of the profile of the rest of these 20. she's someone who kevin mccarthy has put on a pedestal a as prime example of his type of republicans. she's been somewhat of a mainstream member of the house republican conference. so very curious what's going on there and what it says about the direction that things are headed. certainly, curious what's going on with that conversation on the floor with members. >> no kidding. again, we keep saying we have never seen anything like this if my text chain is any indication, people say not interested in politics. there's a new representative who fiepds hums being followed around. he seemed to be alone most of yesterday. fds certainly the most controversial member this terms of the things he said. brendan, thank you. we'll let you go for a bit. everyone else, don't go away. this fight is far from over. co

caller: our chairman -- guest: our chairman patrick mchenry date out his priorities which i agree with wholeheartedly. i am happy to be on financial services committee it will be beneficial to the commonwealth of and sylvania as well as my district. i am also on the small business committee so i care greatly about access to capital for small businesses they only have ash only 19% of them say they have adequate access to capital. i am also focused on the esg unfair mandates. i think perhaps illegal mandates that have been put on financial institutions and small banks large and small. these carbon emission mandates for investment where there is no

. >> and i'm looking for something on the floor, patrick mchenry. >> laura: they're nominating him. >republican from north carolina we're going to the 14 vote here, we thought there might be an effort to adjourn at this point, that's not the case. so he is going to place a nomination, the name of kevin mccarthy and here in the next 10-15 minutes we should go to that 14th vote. >> laura: 14, lucky 14. chad, great to see you. thanks so much. we'll did ininto the coverage on capitol hill just to give you a flavor of what's happening as we begin this 14th vote. [cheers and applause]. >> and on this day and a source of charity we'd even thank the capitol press corps for sitting on floors. that too is funny on paper than how it delivered. i don't know why you asked me to do this kevin. the president has called this process an embarrassment. talking heads have labeled this chaos and a mess and some would call i will shambolic even. it's called democracy and this is the hall mark of a free society where every voice and vote counts. [cheers and applause] >> we know it's messy. we know it's mes

it was kevin mccarthy's nominator, patrick mchenry, who called for this adjournment on monday. kevin mccarthy after holding met gaetz by his arm, walk to the front with gaetz said, we're not adjourning this. which means you're going for another vote. >> -- are you still with us? >> i. and it looks like i'm gonna head back to the floor and a couple minutes. >> what, in your best guess could've gone down in the last 20 minutes that would potentially have changed anyone 's vote? it does not seem like there would have been any time for any negotiating? kevin mccarthy -- >> i serve on the armed services committee with matt gaetz. i know he's made a lot of accusations about wokeness in the military. and culture wars in the military. which of course is completely absurd. i served with our men and women in the military. it's the best fighting forces worlds ever seen. he has long wanted to be ahead of the military personnel subcommittee. i really hope they did not cut a deal to make him the chair of the military personnel subcommittee to -- if that was the case, it's not gonna be good f

some of the south has been negotiated, patrick mchenry, who's a sort of emissary between this group and kevin mccarthy. it's not clear that all 20 of them are on board without -- half of the mike come over, until then you still get ten holdouts, and ten is more than four. >> yeah, really, i think that is the idea, the idea is that tomorrow's vote it, noon is gonna be so key, because you're gonna see how many can mccarthy claim he's now peeled off, and can he get the number of folks refusing to vote for, him down to a small enough -- it's almost, like being on jury with is that one hold, out and pure pressure ultimately builds, if everybody else in the room is saying guilty or not guilty, does appear pressure build enough? i think they're trying to get it to a point where, you know, they just need one or two more, to build the pressure that way. we'll see it noon tomorrow how much this actually translates into progress. because, remember at this time last, night when they went into adjournment, by the skin of their teeth, we are talking about oh, the club for growth and made a deal to co

patrick mchenry, a former top whip in the house, a republican from north carolina.looking at and others could be raised. conservatives are talking about jim jordan. the reality is they know that jim jordan is never going to get 218 votes. too many enemies in the house, but i think the thinking here amongst these conservative critics of mccarthy is that if they continue to show that he does not get the votes eventually he will have to drop out and when we will see someone emerge. >> impressed yesterday with the clip we just saw. jim jordan. and tried carrot, stick, nothing's worked. what role could donald trump play here? just said, backing mccarthy. wavered yesterday. the folks who were opposing mccarthy are all significant trump supporters. is there any way he could be the closer? or has that ship sailed? >> i think the ship has sailed and really speaks to the diminished power that the former president has in this party right now after, you know, midterms and shellacking that republicans -- well, i guess you can't call it shellacking. they did flip the house, but s

patrick mchenry, former representative fred upton from michigan.er congressman and also new york governor nominee this past time. everything is up in the air. fox news senior political analyst juan williams. kimberley strassel a member of the editorial board at the "wall street journal" and trey gowdy former congressman from south carolina. and are you happy trey tonight to be a former congressman from south carolina? >> honestly, i was happy yesterday even before all of this. so, yeah, i'm ecstatic. i would rather be in a psych ward than be on the floor of the house today. >> bret: what do you think happens? >> look, i got bad news for kevin's opponents. he has got a lot more than 20 friends. so, there are more than 20 people that are going to say you know what? we are not ever voting for anyone else. bret, you got a guy who has got 200 votes and the next leading vote getter for very good reasons doesn't want to be the speaker of the house. and, yet, this kamikaze wing within the republican party knows better than 85% of the rest of the conference

the people who he has tapped, patrick mchenry chief among them, have very deep experience in doing things like that. he was the chief deputy whip under steve scalise in the drama between him and kevin mccarthy that's dominated so much of the last decade of house republican politics. at times, scalise and mccarthy rivals. so what they are trying to do is trying to find out if a deal is possible. and then if they find out a deal is possible, they could then try to sell it to the broader conference, which is sick of giving in to the 10% of republicans that the conservatives are who are opposing mccarthy. what's getting lost is that 90s% of republicans are for mccarthy. 10% are not. but the game is not 90%. the game is 218. and mccarthy knows that. he needs to get 218. and he is very far from that. let's just underline that. he's extraordinary far from that right now. and i i don't know what's going to change. and by the way a as we reported, i'm not sure there's going to be a speaker vote today. they might try to enjoy -- like at all. i would be surprised if there was a speaker vote today. i

key allies to talk, to negotiate, with a big group of holdouts that included brian fitzpatrick, patrick mchenry, bruce westerman. french hill, garrett graves. mccarthy gave zero votes in the fourth round. he lost one actually. we're waiting to see if he can gain a vote here. but where do you think this is going? or does anybody know, how much of a nightmare scenario is this right now? >> i don't think anyone knows what is going to happen. and one vote difference for kevin mccarthy, i understand the sense of momentum, but it's just getting to the point of complete gridlock, and it is dangerous and upsetting for our government. this is going to be the second time we don't have a speaker, we don't have elected members of congress sworn in. they are simply congress members-elect. they can't do their job. government can't function some of the this is a big problem. and what is so disturbing is these 20 or so members, they are not looking for somebody who agrees with their principles, because they have no principles. they just, as brendan said, they just don't want kevin mccarthy. and that should not

they say one of them, patrick mchenry, very close to kevin mccarthy, said they have moved closer thanhey have been over the last couple days. they have been talking a lot about how to implement what they say a conservative agenda, the process for doing that. that has been the nature of a lot of the discussions today. but they believe they can get there, which is why they are having this vote to adjourn right now. because those conservative holdouts appear likely to give them the votes to finally adjourn the house for the day, to get to tomorrow in order to negotiate through the night tonight into tomorrow to see if mccarthy can finally get the votes. but anderson, mccarthy almost certainly will not get the votes tomorrow because several of his members, at least four are leaving town for certain issues. so he is going to fall short under 218, which means this is very likely this gets pushed into next week. >> manu, just in terms of what we're look ing at on the screen just a couple of minutes remaining. these are republicans, democrats, independents voting. it's a simple majority neede

republican congressman patrick mchenry of north carolina has been part of the negotiations and confirms to nbc news mccarthy has offered a series of concessions to the group but refused to comment on the specifics, but after all of that, congressman gaetz says while he's happy with those concessions, it is still likely -- >> you cannot negotiate with these people. it's what we keep saying. you can't negotiate with them. you turn the plane over to them, willie. they're flying the plane for the next two years. you don't let them in the door. like you can negotiate with somebody like chip roy who's talking about transparency, he's talking about giving us the bills, the big fat bills where you're spending billions of dollars, and give us five minutes to vote yes or no. give us those bills. let us look at those bills for 72 hours. i mean, i have been in that position, and leadership just shoves stuff down your throat because there's a lot of junk in there they know you'll vote against. that's reasonable and rational. there's five people who said they're never going to vote for him. so why is

patrick mchenry of north carolina says the speaker's race won't be resolved today. mccorr think supporters are staring down their opponents. >> i don't believe kevin mccarthy will back down. we'll do this for days, do this for weeks. it could go months. we can't back down to 20 people holding the rest of the house captive or hostage. >> there's starting to be questions as to whether or not mccarthy can ever get the votes to become speaker. some gop members are beginning to negotiate with democrats. those that oppose mccarthy embrace the house vote a rama. it's not dysfunction and it's not imperilling. it's the exchange of ideas and expression of support for people you want to be your leader in the next congress. i think it's incredibly healthy, actually. >> supporters would like to adjourn but they fear they lack the events. opponents would team with democrats to block a recess. democrats are concerned about republicans failing to elect a speaker. >> the historic dysfunction that we are seeing, this intraparty fight that the american people have been drawn in to is

chairman of a e house financial services committee, a republican fromre north carolina, called patrick mchenry announced that one of the biggest problems, with american finance today, the thing he's worried most aboug he it is that too many whe men work in banking. >> this fact, this overabundance of male whiteness is apparently pressing emergency. so, congressmaprn henry directed all six of the financial services subcommittees to get fi to work fighting whiteness. the subcommittee on housing and insuranchitenesse, for exam, will focus on , quote, policiesl that continue to strengthen diversity and inclusiousin theny the housing industry. how about just housing forho american citizens now? it's got to be race based, according to congressman mchenry. in the case of the subcommittee, it's got, thet ,diversity and inclusion inclusion were the only specific oversight focuses that were listd. now, what is this? we asked we called her on capitol hill and one person with knowledge of the decision-making told us that congressmahen henry is doing this because he doesy not want to upset maxine waterst .

. >>> financial services committee chairman patrick mchenry has made it clear crypto regulation is amed a new subcommittee dedicated to setting new rules for the crypto community joining us, congressman french hill he'll chair the newly formed financial technology and inclusion subcommittee and we have heard that things like, in finance, we don't know about blue states, red states. we just know green why on earth is crypto people going to both corners depending on which side of the aisle they're on, congressman? what does that come from why do you need convincing of one side or the other? if you want to do this, the democrats aren't going to want to do it, i know it. i can see it coming. >> good morning. good to be with you. i think there's an opportunity for bipartisan work here on creating a regulatory framework around digtt assets. think for two reasons. one, you're right, there are some democrats who think anything associated with blockchain or crypto currency is just money laundering, a way to have bad behavior. on the other hand, there's some republicans who think the future is
