although it's not on the list, then we should sanction russia for that and hit them where their pocketbooking about the oil and gas industry and the people that are involved in that. putin wants hands off. that's their weak spot. that's what's going to hurt them. i think the congress has got to get involved here. we have some legislation to incentivize these private-sector companies who have very good it programs, put a lot of money in it but they don't put nearly as much money to harden their defenses and we have to incentivize them to do that and i also think we have to have much better data sharing between their government and the private sector and vice versa. we have to see the enemy together. and those things are steps in the right direction. paul: general, you and i have talked about the responses from the u.s. before and one of the problems you pointed out to me is that our agencies that have this cyber capability and we have enormous capability, they are reluctant to use it in these circumstances because they say if we use it, then the -- the adversary will see what we can do and

restaurants hard come at the food costs will be up, labor costs will be up and it will hit people's pocketbooksabout inflation it's important just to show exactly how the prices of these goods are going up, you talk about gasoline, this affects the consumer, but transportation of all these items, gasoline up 56 percent, used cars and trucks, we've been talking about this at 30 percent jump they are. bacon, breakfast sausages, ground beef, the price of all meats are going going off furniture, bedding, whole milk, this hurts the average american family to have the price of these things go up, but you've heard from the pride that transitory, this is not going to last, they're watching it. the white house seems to not think it's a problem at this point, what is the risk to not acknowledging that inflation is a real problem and a real threat to our economy right now? to get i don't know how anybody could say this isn't real threats. even an obama economist came out yesterday and said stop the stimulus, this is bad, the inflation is heading in a bad direction. larry summers says were headed for hyper

inflation is a real threat to the pocketbooks of hardworking americans throughout our great country.e haven't hit the inflation levels of jimmy carter's days yet, but the warning signs are here. i recently spoke with a group of home builders from across my home state of alabama. they told me how they're seeing prices increase that are even higher than the ballooning national average. as an example, in alabama and across much of the south, home building materials such as brick are up 10%. insulation prices are up 15%. sheetrock prices are up nearly 50%. lumber prices are up 300%. and particle board prices which are used in most homes across the country, the price is up almost 600%. although demand for houses went up during the height of the pandemic, the commerce department reported that u.s. home building actually declined in april of this year. with the demand for housing so high right now, you'd think new construction would be taking place everywhere you turn. but that's not the case. builders are actually delaying construction projects because materials prices have hit record high

in fact, for americans, their pocketbook, their paycheck has actually declined in buying power since president biden took office. america's job recovery should be surging. instead, april and may reports were just disastrous. main street businesses, congressman cawthorn, as you said, they're struggling to find workers. labor force participation is back in the 1970's. inflation has hit a 13-year high. a lot of americans are fearful about the impact of rising prices in a slow growth economy when the sugar high from all this covid stimulus goes away. which is exactly what president biden's budget admits will do. this president is sabotaging america's job recovery with crippling tax increases and anti-business policies that hurt working families and main street businesses and drive u.s. jobs overseas. treasury secretary yellen the other day conceded that just as you heard tonight, these lafbish federal -- lavish federal unemployment bonuses really are hurting main street and hurting hiring. thankfully, half of american states, including one blue state, have opted out of these benefits to

i don't care what the reasonsr i know that americans are feeling it right now in their pocketbooks. rising inflation at this rate is the same thing as a tax and american consumers are feeling it. gasoline is 56% more expensive than it was 12 months ago. transportation services are up and together food and energy prices have increased 3.8% which is the fastest rate since 1992. middle class families are paying the price. time to get our fiscal house in order to ensure our children and children's children's are left a thriving economy. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from virginia seek recognition? >> i request unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> madam speaker, the hyde amendment has shielded the american taxpayer from being forced to fund abortion and for decades, the hyde amendment has enjoyed broad bipartisan support, even president biden supported the hyde amendment as recently as 2019. unfortunatel

so, hit them where they live in the pocketbook. general, what do you think about this?you for this meeting going in? >> steve, great to be with you. yeah, absolutely. i think it's important to -- for world leaders to talk. i would rather have conversations than to deploy troops somewhere. my concern about this is that president biden's actions previously with nord stream 2, with the, you know, tip of the hat to iran, by loosening the sanctions there intel sharing with saudi arabia, all of iran is a strategic partner of russia both economically and militarily geopolitically. and so, it's more do as i say, not as i do with president biden right now. and all the policies are actually supportive of russia while the talk is insulting to servicemen and women, you know, america is back. well where were we for the last four years? we were fighting hard, dod, state department, working hard and had great relationships as well. it's insulting some of the things that he is saying. steve: governor gilmore how do you feel about this. >> i have just written a an article that just got
