Summary
Rep. Austin Scott calls on Congress to get a ‘speaker seated’ so House Republicans to get things done. Scott says, “let's not forget that we should not be in this position. Eight Republicans voted with 208 Democrats. Kevin McCarthy is the largest fundraiser we have ever had for House Republicans. We need him. It has been it is now 12 months from the next elections and we have to get a speaker seated, we have to get some things done. And no matter how much money you raise, if you're not able to run the house, you're not going to win elections. And so we both need to get a speaker seated, who can can run the house and can actually go out there and campaign for people and help us win some more seats because a five seat majority is non-governing majority.”

| 1:51.0 | Hello America and happy Tuesday. At least it's happy in some parts of the country, but perhaps not in Washington, DC. We're just a few minutes ago. The United States House of Representatives rejected Jim Jordan to be the next speaker of the House. He was 20 votes short of what he needed. |
| 2:10.0 | 20 Republicans defected. In fact, he got fewer votes than the Democrat Hakeem Jeffries in the race for the speakership. Now, a lot of people say, oh, it's all over. We've got to go back to starting board. Not yet. Right now they've taken a break. And Jim Jordan is negotiating. He now knows who the 20 are that are holding out on him. Can he negotiate? Can he get a certain number of people to change their votes? Can he get some people to vote present that also changes the equation of how many votes he needs? |
| 2:39.0 | That is ongoing. And in just a few minutes, we're going to bring in Congressman Austin Scott of Georgia. He had just been a candidate for House Speaker last week. He lost to Jim Jordan. He rallied behind Jim Jordan said it's time to like the speaker. And he's going to give us the very latest as it's playing out on Capitol Hill. Right this moment's a live report. We're very excited to have that from the Congressman one of our always one of our most trusted sources when it comes to issues on Capitol Hill, US intelligence and so forth. |
| 3:08.0 | So we've got that. In the second block of the show, we've got Congressman Mike Collins. He's a freshman from Georgia runs a trucking company has really made an impact early in his first nine, 10 months on the job in Congress. He's going to talk a little bit about why there is so much dissension in the ranks, what it is that Republicans are doing. And also the danger of focusing on this leadership battle for such a prolonged period of time that you don't do the people's business. That's a very important object. |
| 3:38.0 | And Congressman Mike Collins who brings us CEO's mentality, a truck shipping firm mentality is going to talk about that is also going to talk about the war on diesel and what it could mean for the future of America's supply chain concerns that the push for electric trucks is a push towards failure. You got heavier trucks that can spend fewer time on the road, which means more trucks are needed. |
| 4:02.0 | The weight tears up the road. The distance is traveled shrinks. And that, of course, requires more trucks to get on the road to get the same supplies out there. We're going to hear a lot about that from Mike Collins. I'm really excited about that. |
| 4:15.0 | In the third block, we are going to have a conversation about all the money that Arab countries have spent over the years trying to influence US learning institutions, universities like Harvard and George Washington University, University of Pennsylvania, others coming from countries like Qatar, which harbors a lot of the Hamas leaders or Saudi Arabia or Egypt or UAE. |
| 4:40.0 | By the way, the amount of money from those Arab nations, which oftentimes are not from Israel, dwarfs what Israel spends on influence operations, lobbying, gifts to universities. It's a pretty remarkable number of fact, Qatar, which has a large number of Hamas leaders in there. It harbors a lot of anti-Israel new sites. It gave 1.6 billion dollars to US education institutions in the last few years, according to documents kept by the US education department. |
| 5:07.0 | That is very concerning to people because if you try to understand, well, how did our students that we see playing out in George Washington University or Harvard or University of Penn? Why are they so anti-Israel after decades of pro-Israel support in America? The answer is the education system and where is the education system getting its money? Well, from people like Qatar that have a greater alliance with Palestinians and Hamas than they did with Israel. |
| 5:32.0 | We're going to have that conversation with one of the true experts in anti-Semitism and extremism on college campuses, Brian Lybe from Case Back, one of the most important voices when it comes to fighting anti-Semitism and silliness in America. So we're going to have him in the third block of the show. I'm very, very excited about that. |
| 5:52.0 | Hey, in the show today, we're going to always talk about our good friends that in viral cleanse, they are doing amazing things day in and day out to find a way to keep your air purer and cleaner, free from toxins, free from viruses, fever, from bacteria and mold spores. |
