Here's our toll-free number.
It's 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program.
All right, so we have a new speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, Louisiana.
This is him speaking immediately after being elected speaker.
Here's what he said.
Kevin has dedicated over two decades of his life to selfless public service.
16 of those years in this house.
And you would be hard-pressed to find anybody who loves this institution more or has contributed more to it.
He is the reason we're in this majority today.
His impact can never be overstated, and I want to thank him for his leadership, his friendship, and the selfless sacrifice that you and Judy have made for so many years.
You helped build it, Kevin, and we owe you a great debt of gratitude.
I want to thank the dedicated and overworked staff of this beleaguered house.
They accept praise so stoically.
But Ms. Susan Cole, our House Reading Clerk, and yes, yes.
Thank you.
Listen, all the clerks and all the staff, you know they're terribly overworked.
This has been a grueling process, but they have served an integral role in keeping our republic, and we thank them for that service.
I know we all do.
I want to thank my dedicated wife of almost 25 years, Kelly.
She's not here.
We couldn't get a flight in time.
This happened sort of suddenly.
But but we're gonna celebrate uh soon.
She spent the last uh couple of weeks on her knees in prayer to the Lord, and um she's a little worn out.
We all are.
I want to thank our children, Michael and Hannah and Abby and Jack and Will.
All of our children sacrifice, all of them do, and we know that.
And um, there's not a lot of perks to be in a member of Congress's kid, right?
And so I want to thank all your families as well for what they endure and what they've had to endure for the last few weeks.
We've been here a while.
Yeah.
Uh I want to thank my faithful mother, Jeannie Johnson, who bore me at the age of 17.
And uh my brothers Chris and Josh and my sister Laura and all their families and all of our extended family in Louisiana family is a big deal, and we got a bunch of them.
Uh I especially want to thank all the extraordinary people of the great state of Louisiana.
We have never had a speaker of the house, hail from our state.
And so they've been lifting us up.
Uh I I thank the the people of Louisiana for the opportunity to serve you in Congress, and I am humbled by your continuous support.
We will make you proud.
To my colleagues, I want to thank you all for the trust that you have instilled in me to lead us In this historic and unprecedented moment that we're in.
The challenge before us is great, but the time for action is now, and I will not let you down.
I want to say to the American people, on behalf of all of us here, we hear you.
We know the challenges you're facing.
We we know that uh that there's a lot going on in our country, domestically and abroad, and we are ready to get to work again to solve those problems, and we will.
Our mission here is to serve you well, to restore the people's faith in this house in this great and essential institution.
My dad, it was mentioned, my dad was a firefighter.
He was an assistant chief uh in the fire department in my hometown of Shreeport, Louisiana, a little town in Northwest Louisiana.
On September 17, 1984, when I was 12 years old, he was critically uh burned and permanently disabled in the line of duty.
All I ever wanted to be when I grew up was the chief of the fire department in Shreveport.
Um but after the explosion on that fateful day, he nearly died, and it was a long road back, and it's changed all of our life trajectories.
I'm the oldest of four kids.
There's the new speaker uh of the House, Mike Johnson, Louisiana here with reactionist former speaker of the house, New Gingrich is with us.
I'll be honest, I was kind of blown away at them.
He's funny, he's uh he's a real great communicator.
Uh I'm surprised we have not seen him more often on television.
Seems to be a guy that works hard behind the scenes more quietly.
But I think uh America's gonna get to know him, but he comes off as affable, self-deprecating, likable, um, and seems to be if he sticks to the New Gingrich formula of 90 10, 80 20, 70, 30 issues, he will be a successful speaker.
I hope he listens.
What's your reaction, Mr. Speaker?
Well, look, I think the this is sort of an amazingly American moment.
Uh here's a guy who has worked very hard, he's been a very aggressive lawyer on behalf of conservative causes, including religious liberty and right to life.
He ended up in Congress, uh, worked very diligently, ended up as the vice chairman of the of the conference, which is you know, just sort of in the outer fringes of leadership.
Um, and then by a process of elimination, it almost seemed like everybody who was truly important found that they had enemies.
And so uh there was a process by which the conference got exhausted, looked around and said, We've got to find someone that we all of us can agree to trust.
And Johnson emerged.
I mean, I think I think that uh he closed and I were both watching it.
It turned out that he and she follow each other on Facebook, so uh I think that probably speaks well of him and her.
That's uh that's pretty funny.
You know, let me go back to what I was just saying uh in your intro introduction.
Is if they stick to your strategy, which is there's so many important issues that are polling-wise, 90-10, 80-20, 70-30 issues.
If he sticks to, you know, getting reining in government spending, if he sticks to securing our borders, uh if he sticks to energy independence, if he sticks to, you know, really, really, really diligent, you know, keeping Biden's feet to the fire on foreign policy issues, and they use the power of the purse, I think he'll be a very successful speaker.
Uh if he deviates from that, I think that would be a huge mistake.
Well, I mean, the the question will be, and uh uh I was watching last night.
This is a great picture Calista pointed out to me that the thing is in political this morning, of everybody gathered around him as they announced that he was now going to be the nominee.
And I I noticed Alice Stefan right behind him has a huge smile.
And I think if he can listen to the conference, you both have to listen to the American people.
And you have to listen to the conference.
They're gonna face some very tough decisions.
Some of those decisions are gonna make the hard right very angry because they're unavoidable.
Uh, and there'll be purists who who will be tempted.
But my hunch is, and maybe I should say my hope is that we've learned out of the last three weeks that blowing up a speaker is very, very dangerous and can lead to a nightmare.
And so I hope that even when people disagree, they will disagree with in the process and not try to blow up the process.
And he's gonna have to pass some bills on a bipartisan basis.
There's no practical way around it given the size of the majority.
But if you think that Israel surviving really matters, for example, uh you're going to work out a bill that can be passed.
Some people won't like that.
The question will be can Mike Speaker Johnson listen to everybody well enough that they feel satisfied psychologically, even if they're not always going to win on policy.
Because that's just the nature of the business.
You get 435 House members, a hundred senators, a president, they're all negotiating, they all have agendas.
Uh and somehow you've got to be able to ride herd on that.
And in a case where you have a four or five vote major margin, you know, you don't you you you don't have any great ability to just drive through things that are purely exactly what you want.
And that of course drives some of our colleagues nuts.
So I think the the next big test will be can he over the next three or four or five weeks get some very key things done in a way that the conference feels that was the best outcome they could hope for in the current circumstance, and then can they shift and focus on winning a bigger majority next year so they can get a lot more things done.
I mean, to your point about uh what we do at America's New Majority Project where we're looking at polling data every week, um we're looking for these 70, 80, 90 percent.
We just got a s a startling number back.
If if you had to choose between a Republican who wanted to cut taxes and wanted to continue the Trump tax cuts versus a Democrat who wanted to allow the Trump tax cuts to expire and to raise taxes, it's now a fifty-five to twenty-six margin.
And that's when you put in the word Republican.
So you're you're peeling away, you know, people who normally wouldn't ever vote Republican, and yet the margin's literally slightly bigger than two to one.
Now, that would say to me, and as it would have said to Ronald Reagan, well, I know one of the issues I want to campaign on next year, uh, and and let people choose between a tax increasing Democratic Party with a disastrous economic record and a Republican Party, which is now produced, by the way, uh a uh balanced budget proposal coming out of the budget committee that would get you to balance that has a clear path to a balance in ten years, uh control spending begins to reform government.
Uh if if Speaker Johnson can now bring those kind of things forward, get people to focus on those kind of things, he could end up having a remarkably successful speakership, and it'll be classically American.
It's proof, you know, America is not a country where we have a Putin or a de Gaulle or a Mao Z dung.
America is a country where everyday folks have a chance to make amazing contributions to the future.
I mean, nobody designated Henry Ford or the Wright brothers or Thomas Edison uh or Elon Musk or anybody else.
They went out and they did it.
Well, we're about to see whether or not a guy from Shreveport, whose father was the police chief, was the fire chief, um, whether or not he can now rise to this occasion.
And every indication we have so far of people like him.
Um Brooke Rollins, who worked with him when she was in the Trump White House, said he's very solid, very affable.
You can really get things done with him.
Uh and I think that's that's a real trivia.
So my my hunch is people are exhausted, Republicans are exhausted, they want this to work, they're eager for this to work, and they're gonna do everything they can to make him successful.
Well, it's imperative that it work.
If they want a shot at the majority again, the a lot of the promises that they made, they're just gonna have to simply fulfill.
Um what I like about it on the one hand is for once now, if they follow through with the rest of their appropriations bills, um and they had completed four of the twelve of them, about about seventy percent of the budget, and they go through regular order and regular pro uh the regular process uh to get there and and achieve that.
Well, once they pass those bills, they will be sent over to the U.S. Senate.
And at that point they will return, and that's where the real battle begins.
And that's gonna be a moment of truth for I think the Republican Party in the House.
Are they strong enough to stand together and say, no, we're not going along with another two trillion dollars in Biden debt moving forward.
We're not going to do it.
And if you're going to shut down the government to do that, uh, we're not going to be a part of it.
Then this is where I thought a missed opportunity was, rather than getting rid of McCarthy, is you know, there was a 30-day uh continuing resolution with an 8% across the board cut uh that would also have funded border security by Chip Roy and Byron Donald's.
That would have bought them time at that at that point, and they chose not to go that route.
So what I'd like to see is the pressure now shift to the Senate and the pressure now shift to Biden.
And I think that all of that is going to happen if they stay together.
They'll win together or they'll lose together.
There's not going to be some winners and some losers.
Thoughts.
Well, I was I was encouraged in part because my sister Susan, who lives in Tennessee, um wrote me a note this morning and said she had been donating to him because uh the Senate Conservative group had told her early on that this was a great guy.
He deserved her support, and she was thrilled because she sees him as precisely the kind of solid, you know, not noisy, but very stable, very solid.
And I think that uh the speaker has enormous power uh as an institution to say to the Senate, no, we're not gonna do that, or say the president, no, we're not gonna do that.
That's the whole purpose of the power of the purse in the Constitution residing in the people's house.
And my hunch is that Speaker Johnson is going to be very pleasant but very firm simultaneously.
If that's the case, I would argue that that would be a winning formula for every Republican in the House.
Uh and you would know, because you're the last speaker of the House to ever balance the budget, did it four years in a row, and it hadn't been balanced for decades prior to that, and it hasn't been balanced since.
Um, and anyway, uh this this is an opportunity for them.
And I would look at this as a new start, a new beginning, and hopefully all the things that you're advising them to do, they will follow up on.
Because if they do, they can be successful.
And if they're successful, the country wins.
This is about the country winning, it's not about a party winning.
Uh, Mr. Speaker, thank you, sir.
We always appreciate you being with us.
Thank you.

Now the extremism just never seems to stop.
You've got Obrar, I don't know how to quite say it.
Oh my sh, a pro-Palestinian school board matter member objecting to a moment of silence for the victims of these terror attacks by Hamas.
Just like it I'll play that, and I'll play, you know, the Cornell professor.
You know, that's exhilarated and just inspired by what Hamas did by killing 1400 innocent people and taking hundreds hostage.
Anyway, listen.
I wasn't expecting what seemed to be a sneak attack after we had discussed, um, making sure we represent all children in the ways that we speak and when we speak.
So it's disappointing that my colleagues would do that behind my back after conversations that I had with them.
Um and saying that a statement represents everybody's views.
Um but many are thinking about the incredible devastation and human suffering unfolding today in Israel and Palestine, and we mourn the loss of hundreds of innocent civilians killed and homes destroyed this week alone, and the thousands over the decades, all of whom should have been prevented.
It might seem simple.
Aggressors attacking families and a state seeking vengeance, but we often sympathize with and humanize the side that we relate to, and the side that looks more like us, or that our biases guide us towards.
But doing so obscures the root of the violence.
Centuries of human history teach us that escalations happen when problems are ignored, realities are denied, and voices are censored.
When one narrative dominates from the world stage all the way to our classrooms.
We do our students no favors by calling for peace and being unwilling to back what peace requires.
As the old civil rights adage goes, no justice, no peace.
When we're unwilling to call out the global human rights organization, what global human rights organizations have called an apartheid regime of occupation that has been violating international agreements year after year and killing thousands of innocent civilians over decades, we are lying to our children.
When we don't give space to hear the Palestinian narrative, we buy into a rhetoric that negates not only the humanness of Palestinians, but justifies the indiscriminate retaliation against the population.
When teachers are written up for teaching the full context, warned that they might it might threaten their position or are reprimanded for sharing a get to know me board with a Palestinian flag on it, then we allow only the occupiers' narrative to exist.
Where is the mascot?
Hamas has shifted the balance of power.
Hamas has punctured the illusion of invisibility.
That's what we've done.
You don't have to be a Hamas supporter to recognize them.
Has changed the terms of debate.
Nothing will be the same again.
Nothing will be the same again.
Hamas has challenged the monopoly of violence.
And in those first few hours, even as horrific acts would be carried out, many of which we wouldn't have learned about until later.
There are many dozens of goodwill.
Many Palestinians, conscious, who abhor violence, as do you, as do I, who abhor the targeting of civilians, as do you, as do I?
Who were able to breathe?
They were able to breathe for the first time in years.
It was exhilarating.
It was exhilarating, it was energizing.
And if they weren't exhilarated by this challenge to the monopoly of violence, by this shifting of the violence of power, then they would not be human.
I was exhilarated.
You can't believe that in this day and age that you would have so many people sympathizing and defending the terrorist attacks brought to Israel.
Not a war they sought, not a war they wanted, but it will be a war that they win.
Anyway, joining us for comment on this is chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, uh Chairman Jason Smith of Missouri.
Uh sir, welcome uh back to the program.
Are you as shocked as I am at at how many people we have learned in this country, how many people are you know at the highest levels and some of our most prestigious universities that have been out there vocally supporting the terrorists responsible for the death of so many Israelis and the hostage taking of so many innocent men, women, children I am not just shocked.
I'm disgusted by these statements in support Hamas that we've seen in recent days is an understatement.
Celebrating excusing or downplaying the horrific rape, torture, and murder of innocent people is the same thing as supporting violence or or even calling for it, releasing such statements or even failing to condemn them is unforgivable and runs counter to our values as a nation.
And that is why I am so upset with what's going on with these tax exempt organizations, these public universities that have tax exempt special treatment are allowing this kind of behavior and stuff to happen on their campus and not not disavowing it.
It's absolutely unacceptable.
These universities are all about preferred speech if it is about defunding the police if it's about just protecting Israel it's madness and and the fact they're not disavowing it shows that they are compliant with it.
Let me ask you uh and I'm I'm glad you're so outspoken about it, Congressman, let me ask you about this election of Speaker Mike Johnson from Louisiana.
I thought he gave a very good speech today actually and uh there's there's a lot to like about him and his record part of the Republican study group.
Uh what are your thoughts?
Sean Mike is a great American I nominated him to lead the largest conservative caucus within the Republican conference back in 2018 which is called RFE, the Republican Study Committee.
And he by the way wouldn't the Freedom Caucus take a little issue with that with him being a member of the Republican study committee?
That which one is the most conservative it's the largest conservative no they are conservative I stay you are correct and uh but I I thought you said the most sorry I stand corrected.
I may have said the most I apologize but it's definitely the largest um conference within caucus within our conference um and so he's also serving on the Judiciary Committee he um is a constitutional lawyer um and he is a product of the working class the Republican Party is the party of the working class I have no doubt that he'll understand the policies and values that affect small businesses,
family farmers and working class Americans and he'll be able to help help help bring the Republican Party together and move forward for the for the next 15 months that we're in the majority.
What are the top priorities that you see for this this now newly opened hopefully newly energized Republican party in the House without a doubt we have to have policy wins on securing our border what's going on at the southern border is atrocious and no administration should be allowed to allow that conduct to be taken forward and so we need to be very strategic of where we can get policy wins on and protecting the security of our southern border.
When you look at inflation going up 17 point nine percent since Joe Biden took the oath of office we have to address inflation it affects every American it's harder for them to put food on their table clothes in their backs or gasoline in their cars and one way to do that is look at a debt commission and I appreciated hearing Mike Johnson say that in his speech because those are the things that we need to do.
Seventy five percent of the spending at the federal level is all mandatory.
It's automatic and a debt commission is the only thing that can help us get that under control.
Well they don't get it under control, how many more years can we have two trillion dollars of new Biden debt?
I don't know how long that can last and how long how sustainable that all is.
But you know, uh what is the latest?
I I know things have gotten delayed, you know, with the speaker upheaval that had gone on.
Um glad it finally got resolved today.
I knew eventually it would.
Um now that it's resolved, what does that mean for your investigation?
We have three committees now investigating what I call the Biden family uh syndicate, or if you're in Fulton County, Georgia, enterprise is the term they prefer.
Um, but that is about Joe Biden's involvement in this family business, the lies that he has told, uh, the amount of money uh that is involved is tens of millions of dollars.
Uh the bank accounts, the the shell corporations, everything in between.
Uh, where does that investigation stand as it relates to your committee and James Comer's committee and Jim Jordan's committee?
You know, uh I'm so thankful that we have the Speaker of the House because it has been difficult um in continuing the investigations in regards to the Biden family business entities, and I'll tell you there is so much material that we are going through in the House Ways and Means Committee,
the Judiciary Committee, and the Oversight Committee, and and the connection that the IRS whistleblowers that came before my committee to the bank records that Jamie Comer is releasing is showing that they're both aligning.
They are matching, and it shows that clearly if you follow the money, it leads to numerous members of the Biden family, including Joe Biden.
So, how soon do you think before this really gets we keep hearing from the media?
There's no evidence, no evidence, no evidence.
Okay.
Um I see a m a a plethora of evidence as it relates, you know, Joe said he was never involved, never talked to his son, his brother, or anybody for that matter.
Well, we know that's a lie.
We know about phone calls he's been on over 20 that we know of for sure.
Uh we know about meetings with Russian oligarchs and others at Cafe Milano.
Again, things that he said never happened.
Uh, we know about tens of millions of dollars going into the coffers of the Biden family, including Hunter, and that it looks like Joe's actions as president in the case of Barisma, he took official state actions as vice president that had a direct result of financially benefiting his son.
Uh, what did his son with no experience do to get all of this money?
Um, that has yet to be determined.
What did the grandchildren do?
That is yet to be determined.
Uh how active was the Department of Justice that I believe has been weaponized.
Were they in covering up and assisting and aiding and abetting the cover-up of of all of these activities of Joe and Hunter Biden and the family?
Uh I like answers to that too.
How soon can we expect these answers?
You know, exactly the stuff that you laid out shows how complex it is, and that's why you have judiciary oversight and natural uh ways and means committee all involved in it.
Judiciary is going through the weaponization and how the Department of Justice definitely gave preferential treatment to President Biden and his son.
The whistleblowers highlighted instances where where the evidence was leading to President Biden, and you had in prosecutors in the Department of Justice saying under no circumstances um can we look into that.
I that's not how investigations work unless there's preferential treatment.
We clearly see that from what the IRS whistleblowers gave us.
The IRS whistleblowers just a couple weeks ago, Sean, provided information to the Ways and Means Committee that we released highlighting numerous aspects of where they tracked that there was official activity done by Joe Biden that was connected to Hunter Biden and the Biden family.
For example, Hunter Biden even flew on Air Force Two to Mexico to meet with a billionaire individual who he Well, he flew on Air Force Two to go to China and Asia, didn't he?
And and financial deals were made then.
Numerous examples, and you're exactly right.
All these countries, and clearly he was showing that there's an open door to his father, and that is the only reason why people would give Hunter Biden and the Biden family millions of dollars is because they bought access to Joe Biden.
Well, the American people know beyond any doubt at all whatsoever, all of the details of all of this by the time November of 2024 comes around.
Let me tell you, Jim Jordan and myself and Jamie Comer are going to do everything we can to make sure that the American people see the truth.
The administration is pushing back on us every step, but let me tell you, I I can I I cannot stand prouder with two individuals as Jim Jordan and Jane to have my back when we're pushing against this administration.
Chairman Jason Smith, appreciate you being with us.
800-941 Sean, our number.
Keep up the good work, sir.
