  • ago actually if I had it my way we would
  • 0:11
  • have been successful in our objection on
  • 0:14
  • January 6 and he wouldn't even be

  • more recently does does what he say add
  • 0:29

  • 0:35
  • more experienced talking to marger about
  • 0:37
  • policy than than I do first of all uh
  • 0:39
  • secondly uh my experience with margorie
  • 0:42
  • is people have talked to her about not
  • 0:44
  • filing articles of impeachment on on
  • 0:46
  • President Biden before he was sworn into
  • 0:48
  • office on not filing articles of
  • 0:50
  • impeachment that were groundless B on
  • 0:53
  • other uh individuals in the Biden
  • 0:55
  • Administration um and she was never
  • 0:56
  • moved by that she was always focused on
  • 0:59
  • her social media account and and Moscow
  • 1:02
  • margorie is focused now on this Ukraine
  • 1:06
  • issue and getting her talking points
  • 1:07
  • from the Kremlin Dam and making sure
  • 1:11
  • that that she is popular and she is
  • 1:13
  • getting a lot of coverage yeah seems
  • 1:15
  • like Ken Buck isn't just leaving
  • 1:17
  • congress with a few parting words in
  • 1:19
  • fact he's leaving with nothing at all
  • 1:21
  • left unsaid the Republican infighting
  • 1:23
  • goes into the championship rounds
  • 1:25
  • there's everything from oued speaker
  • 1:28
  • Kevin McCarthy Throwing Shade at the
  • 1:30
  • Undisputed creep of the GOP Matt Gates
  • 1:33
  • and I'll give you the truth why I'm not
  • 1:35
  • speaker it's because one person a member
  • 1:38
  • of Congress wanted me to stop an Ethics
  • 1:39
  • complaint because he slept with a
  • 1:41
  • 17-year-old to then marer till green
  • 1:43
  • using every opportunity outside of
  • 1:45
  • making the case for her being one of the
  • 1:47
  • most abor people in public office and
  • 1:50
  • you know I come from a business
  • 1:51
  • background and the way you get a job
  • 1:53
  • done for your customers I view the
  • 1:55
  • American people as our customers is we
  • 1:57
  • have to work together so this letter to
  • 1:59
  • my colleagues is the beginning of that
  • 2:02
  • first we admit the problems first we
  • 2:04
  • admit the wrongs and then we come up
  • 2:06
  • with a plan for change I'm working on
  • 2:08
  • the changes that I would like to see and
  • 2:10
  • I'll be proposing with my colleagues um
  • 2:13
  • and I look forward to talking with them
  • 2:15
  • about that to criticize The Fifth Fifth
  • 2:17
  • Choice speaker I think so are you
  • 2:19
  • worried about chaos in the middle of an
  • 2:20
  • election year well of course I'm worried
  • 2:22
  • about chaos in an election Mike Johnson
  • 2:25
  • has put us into chaos do you realize
  • 2:27
  • that all of my colleagues had to go back
  • 2:29
  • to their s in campaign on the fact that
  • 2:31
  • our Republican elected speaker passed
  • 2:34
  • the Biden uh agenda that he funded the
  • 2:37
  • Department of Justice that has 91
  • 2:39
  • federal indictments against President
  • 2:40
  • Trump that he funded the FBA FBI that
  • 2:43
  • raided marago uh that he funded Biden's
  • 2:46
  • open border which is the number one
  • 2:48
  • issue in America yes we are in chaos and
  • 2:51
  • that's coming from Mike Johnson our
  • 2:53
  • Republican elected speaker am I
  • 2:55
  • concerned about a contentious difficult
  • 2:57
  • 3 and 1/2 Weeks electing a speaker
  • 3:00
  • absolutely I was miserable during that
  • 3:02
  • time all of us were I'm not going to
  • 3:04
  • throw our conference into chaos but on
  • 3:06
  • the topic of Q on Karen when asked about
  • 3:08
  • her on CNN a very much Fed Up former
  • 3:10
  • Republican representative Ken Buck took
  • 3:12
  • shots at representative Mal T green on
  • 3:15
  • Monday referring to his former colleague
  • 3:17
  • as quote Moscow malerie and let's go now
  • 3:20
  • to the former Republican Congressman Ken
  • 3:22
  • Bach who was one of the eight
  • 3:23
  • Republicans who had voted to Al then
  • 3:25
  • speaker Kevin McCarthy so Congressman
  • 3:28
  • you heard Sunland um talk about some of
  • 3:29
  • the conspiracies green has pushed over
  • 3:31
  • the years and uh obviously now saying
  • 3:34
  • that you know if if the speaker doesn't
  • 3:36
  • do what she wants regarding Ukraine um
  • 3:37
  • she's going to go ahead with uh what she
  • 3:40
  • can now do right just takes one to to
  • 3:42
  • force a vote on the speakership does it
  • 3:45
  • worry you that she has this much power
  • 3:47
  • in the House of
  • 3:50
  • Representatives well margorie has this
  • 3:51
  • much power because we have such a small
  • 3:53
  • majority at this point in time uh Mike
  • 3:56
  • Johnson the speaker is on the right side
  • 3:58
  • of history and margerie is on the wrong
  • 4:00
  • side of History we know that Russia is
  • 4:02
  • propagating these false uh statements uh
  • 4:06
  • narratives about what's going on in
  • 4:08
  • Ukraine we know that she is getting her
  • 4:11
  • talking points from Russia and we know
  • 4:13
  • that they're false and and Mike Johnson
  • 4:15
  • is doing the responsible Thing by trying
  • 4:17
  • to make sure we get a vote on Ukraine
  • 4:19
  • funding make sure that the Ukrainian
  • 4:22
  • people can fight for their freedom the
  • 4:23
  • fact that that margerie is uh continuing
  • 4:26
  • down this false path um I don't think
  • 4:29
  • many Republic an are going to support
  • 4:31
  • her uh there will be some um and I
  • 4:33
  • expect that the Democrats recognize this
  • 4:35
  • moment in history and The Importance of
  • 4:37
  • Being bipartisan in supporting Mike
  • 4:39
  • Johnson well we will see I mean that
  • 4:42
  • that's a whole another um can of worms I
  • 4:44
  • guess as as as as we could say but
  • 4:47
  • Congressman she has been going after
  • 4:49
  • speaker Johnson over the Ukraine funding
  • 4:51
  • obviously specifically but then she just
  • 4:53
  • recently suggested to Tucker Carlson
  • 4:56
  • something that you know sort of took me
  • 4:58
  • back she had no evidence to back it but
  • 5:00
  • she said that the whole reason that he
  • 5:02
  • may be doing this is because Johnson may
  • 5:04
  • be being blackmailed let me just play
  • 5:06
  • The
  • 5:07
  • Exchange Mike Johnson has has made a
  • 5:10
  • complete departure of who he is um and
  • 5:13
  • what he stands for and to the point
  • 5:15
  • where people are literally asking is he
  • 5:17
  • blackmailed what is wrong with him
  • 5:20
  • because he's completely disconnected
  • 5:22
  • with what we want do you think he is
  • 5:24
  • being
  • 5:25
  • blackmailed I have no
  • 5:28
  • idea um um all right so she's saying
  • 5:31
  • people are literally asking is being
  • 5:32
  • blackmailed then says she has no idea
  • 5:34
  • when Tucker asked her again do you take
  • 5:38
  • this
  • 5:40
  • seriously no I think it's irresponsible
  • 5:42
  • as so many of the statements that that
  • 5:44
  • margorie has made over the years are are
  • 5:47
  • completely irresponsible the idea that
  • 5:49
  • that somehow the speaker is corrupt
  • 5:51
  • Because he believes that we should be
  • 5:52
  • supporting an ally that's been invaded
  • 5:55
  • by a war criminal Vladimir Putin the job
  • 5:58
  • comes after for speaker Kevin McCarthy
  • 6:01
  • had said that Madre was a quote very
  • 6:04
  • serious legislator following her threat
  • 6:06
  • to force a vote to out speaker Mike
  • 6:08
  • Johnson so you know when you talk about
  • 6:10
  • her it is it is a bit different
  • 6:12
  • obviously than what the man you voted to
  • 6:14
  • remove as Speaker Kevin McCarthy said
  • 6:16
  • about her in fact this weekend he said
  • 6:19
  • this about congresswoman
  • 6:21
  • green the one thing I've always found
  • 6:24
  • about margorie is she's a very serious
  • 6:26
  • legislator that deals with policy and
  • 6:28
  • the best way to deal with anyone like is
  • 6:29
  • sit down and talk to
  • 6:33
  • him you've worked with her more recently
  • 6:36
  • does does what he say add up to you at
  • 6:38
  • all
  • 6:41
  • and well I think Kevin has more much
  • 6:43
  • more experienced talking to marger about
  • 6:45
  • policy than than I do first of all uh
  • 6:47
  • secondly uh my experience with margorie
  • 6:50
  • is people have talked to her about not
  • 6:52
  • filing articles of impeachment on on
  • 6:54
  • President Biden before he was sworn into
  • 6:56
  • office on not filing articles of
  • 6:58
  • impeachment that were groundless B on
  • 7:00
  • other uh individuals in the Biden
  • 7:02
  • Administration um and she was never
  • 7:04
  • moved by that she was always focused on
  • 7:07
  • her social media account and and Moscow
  • 7:10
  • Margery is focused now on this Ukraine
  • 7:13
  • issue and getting her talking points
  • 7:15
  • from the Kremlin and making sure that
  • 7:17
  • that she is popular and she is getting a
  • 7:19
  • lot of coverage all right well
  • 7:22
  • Congressman I appreciate your time and
  • 7:24
  • and your blunt and honest words thank
  • 7:25
  • you very much I appreciate it
  • 7:27
  • sir thank you now we await results as to
  • 7:30
  • whether Kevin McCarthy did have a half
  • 7:32
  • bottle or full bottle of vodka before
  • 7:34
  • making such asinine statements yes
  • 7:36
  • that's a joke but clearly kbach
  • 7:38
  • disagreed with McCarthy's assessment
  • 7:40
  • green has vehemently opposed additional
  • 7:43
  • spending for Ukraine Aid and filed a
  • 7:45
  • motion to vacate the speaker ship before
  • 7:47
  • the Easter recess and went on to
  • 7:49
  • threaten to make the motion privileged
  • 7:51
  • if Johnson attempts to pass a bill and
  • 7:53
  • all of this right it perfectly
  • 7:54
  • encompasses the dysfunction of the GOP I
  • 7:57
  • mean they refused to work on by parts
  • 8:00
  • and legislation they turn on each other
  • 8:02
  • at the request of their cult leader and
  • 8:04
  • can't seem to stick with a speaker long
  • 8:05
  • enough then Lauren bber can a promise
  • 8:08
  • conwoman Lauren bber the um fire brand
  • 8:11
  • representing Colorado's thirdd
  • 8:13
  • congressional district is now facing a
  • 8:15
  • tough race in November thanks to a
  • 8:18
  • series of personal controversies also an
  • 8:20
  • undersell basically she went to a
  • 8:22
  • fundraiser in New York City with Donald
  • 8:24
  • Trump and got so drunk they had to cut
  • 8:26
  • her off and then tried to take repeated
  • 8:28
  • pictures with Trump and then they had to
  • 8:29
  • tell her hey lady like tone it down yeah
  • 8:31
  • according to the witnesses this is how
  • 8:33
  • it went down and remind viewers here
  • 8:35
  • that this came a few months after that
  • 8:37
  • she got in trouble and had to apologize
  • 8:39
  • for her conduct at a Denver theater
  • 8:41
  • where she was watching a performance a
  • 8:43
  • musical performance of Beetlejuice and
  • 8:45
  • you know she got kicked out for vaping
  • 8:47
  • and being loud and there's security
  • 8:49
  • footage of it and so this is just an
  • 8:50
  • example much more than vaping and being
  • 8:52
  • loud although I do I I appreciate your
  • 8:54
  • attempt to keep
  • 8:57
  • this yes there was a lot more going on
  • 8:59
  • like people don't do that it was a
  • 9:01
  • family theater it's an impossible job
  • 9:04
  • the Lord Jesus himself could not manage
  • 9:06
  • this conference with this kind you just
  • 9:08
  • can't do it I think Mike Johnson is a
  • 9:10
  • great human he doesn't lie like the last
  • 9:12
  • guy I think people don't like dis
  • 9:16
  • dysfunction uh so that's not good for
  • 9:17
  • our side and with a one-seat majority
  • 9:20
  • does only takes a couple people to
  • 9:22
  • create dysfunction I think speaker
  • 9:23
  • Johnson is working his guts out doing
  • 9:25
  • the best he can with a lot of feral cats
  • 9:27
  • it's no wonder that buck abruptly
  • 9:29
  • retired from Congress last month he's
  • 9:31
  • had numerous run-ins with Marge
  • 9:33
  • considering both were members of the
  • 9:35
  • House Freedom caucus which of course she
  • 9:37
  • left last year amidst more internal
  • 9:39
  • strife Marjorie Taylor Green do you want
  • 9:42
  • her to be a member of the freedom caucus
  • 9:44
  • or not she's not a member of the freedom
  • 9:46
  • caucus and and she shouldn't be in the
  • 9:47
  • future she has consistently attacked
  • 9:50
  • other members of the freedom caucus in
  • 9:52
  • an irresponsible way and as a result of
  • 9:55
  • that uh she was uh kicked out of the
  • 9:58
  • freedom caucus and she should not be she
  • 10:00
  • should not be a member we have diverse
  • 10:02
  • opinions in the freedom caucus it's not
  • 10:04
  • monolithic um but uh in so far as
  • 10:06
  • attacking other members it it just
  • 10:08
  • shouldn't be tolerated over and over
  • 10:10
  • again it is a series of of really uh
  • 10:12
  • poorly thought out attacks on other
  • 10:14
  • members the caucus also voted to kick
  • 10:16
  • out Buck just days before his
  • 10:18
  • resignation Marjorie Taylor green came
  • 10:21
  • out and said we played the sound
  • 10:23
  • yesterday that she's like I'm not voting
  • 10:25
  • for any budget Bill no continuing
  • 10:28
  • resolution nothing that doesn't involve
  • 10:30
  • the defunding of Jack Smith's special
  • 10:33
  • counsel office and everything that he's
  • 10:35
  • doing do you feel similarly about that
  • 10:38
  • issue as you do to defunding the FBI and
  • 10:41
  • the ATF and the DEA
  • 10:43
  • Etc so so George when when I was uh
  • 10:46
  • teaching uh law school um I I learned
  • 10:50
  • and and taught certain constitutional
  • 10:53
  • principles when Marjorie Taylor green
  • 10:55
  • was teaching CrossFit she learned a
  • 10:58
  • whole different set of values evid
  • 10:59
  • because um my idea of what this country
  • 11:03
  • should be like is based on the
  • 11:06
  • Constitution and she sees the world
  • 11:08
  • differently she's criticized me for uh
  • 11:11
  • you know um voting to uh certify the
  • 11:15
  • election in 2020 the Constitution says
  • 11:19
  • Congress shall count the votes doesn't
  • 11:21
  • say congress May overturn an election
  • 11:24
  • result it doesn't say congress can do
  • 11:26
  • whatever the heck it wants with this
  • 11:28
  • election shall count the votes that's
  • 11:30
  • what the Constitution says in her
  • 11:33
  • CrossFit class maybe they didn't cover
  • 11:35
  • that and then also the Constitution also
  • 11:37
  • says that uh you know the the
  • 11:40
  • impeachment of a president shall be
  • 11:42
  • based on treason High crimes Mis means
  • 11:45
  • it doesn't say it's a political exercise
  • 11:48
  • right and we hope the Senate does the
  • 11:49
  • right thing um and so I I get tired of
  • 11:52
  • people one of the beauties of congresses
  • 11:54
  • you bring 435 people together from
  • 11:56
  • different backgrounds and and you try to
  • 11:58
  • reach consensus on issues when you've
  • 12:01
  • got people who care more about their
  • 12:02
  • social media accounts than they do about
  • 12:05
  • the Constitution we have a real problem
  • 12:07
  • in Congress they are as a whole as
  • 12:09
  • United as the former president and first
  • 12:12
  • lady people are just wanting change rich
  • 12:15
  • people want it poor people want it
  • 12:17
  • everybody wants change your country is
  • 12:19
  • really doing poorly we're a laughing
