Today in the House, lawmakers are considering several bills under suspension of the rules, including one honoring the late Virginia Democratic Congressman Jerry Conley, who died at age 75 of esophageal cancer on May 21st. | |
| That legislation, which the congressman introduced prior to his death, would require the GAO to produce a report on health care coverage for esophageal cancer treatments. | ||
| Members are also taking up several bills out of the Small Business Committee. | ||
| Watch live coverage of the U.S. House when members return here on C-SPAN. | ||
| Democracy. | ||
| It isn't just an idea. | ||
| It's a process. | ||
| A process shaped by leaders elected to the highest offices and entrusted to a select few with guarding its basic principles. | ||
| It's where debates unfold, decisions are made, and the nation's course is charted. | ||
| Democracy in real time. | ||
| This is your government at work. | ||
| This is C-SPAN, giving you your democracy unfiltered. | ||
| Coming up shortly, State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce briefs reporters on President Trump's foreign policy agenda. | ||
| We'll have live coverage here on C-SPAN when it gets underway. | ||
| Let's go to your calls now to Wayne, Olympia, Washington, Republican. | ||
| Good morning, Wayne. | ||

Good morning. | |
| I was waiting to speak with your lady, your guest, but she's gone. | ||
| So I would like to correct one thing that she said as far as in Russia, she said there's no Mormons and LDS. | ||
| Fortunately, there is. | ||
| No, she didn't say there are not any. | ||
| She said that they are persecuted. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, no, they're not. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Tell us about what you know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, there's a temple, a very big one, and a lot of Mormons in Russia. | |
| So, but that was just one thing. | ||
| And are you a Mormon, Wayne? | ||
| How do you know about that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, I am. | |
| I'm Mormon. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And I've been there. | ||
| I was married to a Russian. | ||
| But yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|

|
I called. | |
| I was going to talk to her about Ukraine, but Ukraine is so Corrupt that and it has been. | ||
| That war has been going on for over 20 years. | ||
| So it's basically like Afghanistan. | ||
| So good luck, folks. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Here's Paul, Glendora, California. | ||
| Democrat, good morning. | ||
|

|
Good morning. | |
| How are you today? | ||
| Good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good. | |
| First time caller. | ||
| I watch you guys all the time, and I just have tried to call in before and I never got through. | ||
| But I just wanted to say about the news channels that are showing news. | ||
| I think, you know, I stream them all. | ||
| I go to Fox. | ||
| I do CNN, NBC, NewsNation. | ||
| And of all the channels, I think Fox is so pro-Trump. | ||
| They're just, it's all fake news. | ||
| And I think the best news that you can watch is between CNN and NewsNation because they seem to tell both sides. | ||
| And they're just not one-sided. | ||
| And unless something's in it for Trump, he's not going to give any peace to Ukraine and Russia if he's not going to make a dollar about it. | ||
| So that's all I wanted to say. | ||
| I appreciate your show. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Here's Emmanuel in Corpus Christi, Texas, Independent Line. | ||
| Good morning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good morning, and thank you for having me. | |
| This is my first time calling. | ||
| And thanks for all you do. | ||
| I just wanted to call, and I was trying to get the lady, but she's not there anymore. | ||
| So, anyways, I wanted her to maybe talk to the public about the differences between Zionist, Zionism, and anti-Semitism, because there is a big difference. | ||
| You know, everybody puts the anti-Semitism with Israel, but that's more like languages kind of thing. | ||
| And so I think I really think that the media needs to do more to hold Israel accountable for what they're doing. | ||
| And, you know, they're basically wiping out the Palestinians. | ||
| And nobody's doing anything about it. | ||
| Nobody talks against it. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| Only the people are starting to rise up. | ||
| Because why? | ||
| There's innocent babies, innocent people getting slaughtered. | ||
| So I just wanted to say that. | ||
| And thank you for all you do. | ||
| And, Emmanuel, this is in today's New York Times. | ||
| Israeli soldiers opened fire near Gaza aid site. | ||
| Gaza officials say 27 are killed. | ||
| It was the second such shooting by Israeli forces in three days near the same aid site in southern Gaza, which is part of a contentious new Israeli and American-backed initiative. | ||
| That's the New York Times. | ||
| And this is Elizabeth in New York, Democrat. | ||
| Good morning, Elizabeth. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good morning. | |
| Thank you for taking my call. | ||
| Yes, I just wanted to comment and say, yes, the last man who spoke, he's so right. | ||
| I watch all the channels too. | ||
| I watch CNN, Fox, and other channels for news. | ||
| And I can understand some of the problems that I never see anyone on Fox ever admit that Trump may have made a mistake or done something that could cause problems for our country. | ||
| And I recently saw a report where when these raids are taking place by the Homeland Security and people in the ICE organizations. | ||
| They're complaining that they have to wear masks because when they're doing the raids, people are taking pictures of them when they're raiding establishments. | ||
| And the Republicans said that they have to wear masks because they're afraid their families will be targeted. | ||
| And so I can't understand why do the Republicans cry out and scream when something that takes place and it harms other people or Democratic people and Democratic cities. | ||
| You don't hear them complain. | ||
| When they had the rhetoric from Trump when he was on trial in New York and he threatened that. | ||
| It takes a team. | ||
