We will not continue to allow the uniparty to run this town without a fight.

I want to thank you, Matt Gaetz, for holding the line.

Matt Gaetz is a courageous man.

We had hundreds of Matt Gaetz in DC.

The country turns around as that simple.

He's so tough, he's so strong, he's smart, and he loves this country, Matt Gaetz.

It is the honor of my life to fight alongside each and every one of you.

We will save America.

It's choose your fighter time, send in the firebrands.

Now the attention is drawn to Capitol Hill, and the fact that the Republicans are so incapable of governing,

they lost a speaker, and what hasn't really happened before in this way.

Your reaction tonight.

And the most devastating question for Matt Gaetz today, just as it was eight months ago,

is, okay, what's the alternative?

And he doesn't seem to be able to give you an alternative.

And the alternative he offers are people that don't want to have anything to do with it.

I do think that, you know, we have known we were going to have a calamity since the day Speaker McCarthy got elected speaker after 15 rounds.

We knew it was going to eventually come to this, it was going to come to a government shutdown.

The criticism I would have of Kevin McCarthy is that he hasn't gone on ahead from the beginning and laid the groundwork

to make this catastrophe we're seeing today about something,

say a government shutdown because Democrats refuse to enforce the border or a government shutdown

because Democrats refuse to stop inflationary spending, all of which American people would understand.
