Kevin mccarthy says bring it on. And by it i mean a fox news on contributor ship. Sources telling cnn that just ousted speaker Will Leave Congress before the end of his term, perhaps as soon as a new speaker is elected. This as donald trump endorses a man once called a legislative terrorist by a past republican speaker to be the next speaker. Also ahead, eight years after donald trump came down the escalator and said mexico is sending rapists to the u. S. , in a new interview, trump says undocumented immigrants are, quote, poisoning the blood of our country. Well get reaction from one of his republican president ial rivals. Plus a bold message exclusively to cnn from a female activist behind bars in iran who was just awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Welcome to the lead. Why bother to continue to represent the good people of barks bakersfield, california when there is money to be made . We start today on capitol hill. Moments ago sources told cnn that ousted House SpeakerKevin Mccarthy is expected to resign from congress before the end of his term. He is expected to stick around through the election for his replacement which is expected to start next week. We dont know when it will end. Those same sources say mccarthy does not plan to get involved in the speakers race where the two leading candidates are jim jordan of ohio, current chairman of the house judiciary committee, and Steve Scalise of louisiana. The current House Majority leader. As of now, neither jordan nor scalise has claimed to have the magic 218 votes required to become the speaker. Scalise has been working the phones and courting gop lawmakers privately. While jordan is publicly making the case that he is the best messenger for the Republican Party ahead of the 2024 election where his close ally donald trump is the frontrunner for the president ial nomination. But in the last day or so, a couple of prominent republicans have been issuing a stark warning about jim jordan, specifically about his role in attempting to overturn the president ial election of 2020. Jim jordan knew more about what donald trump had planned for january 6 than any moesh of the house of representatives. Jim jordan was involved in was part of the conspiracy in which donald trump was engaged as he attempted to overturn the election. That was former congresswoman liz cheney on wednesday in minnesota. But cheney is not the only republican sounding the alarm. Here is Cassidy Hutchinson the former top aide to white house top of staff Mark Meadowses of the trump white house. And of course the star witness of the january 6 committees public hearings. Jim jordan was privy to nearly everything if not everything about and pertaining to january 6. Jim jordan cant be trusted with the constitution. Jim jordan scored former President Trumps endorsement early this morning which could as no surprise to anyone if you take a closer look at the Great Lengths that jordan went to to try to keep trump in power after he lost the election. Here is jordan in harrisburg, pennsylvania attending a Stop The Steal rally two days after election day in the weeks and months after that, jordan went on various right wing Media Outlets where he attempted to sow distrust in the 2020 election and made baseless claims of election fraud. Exactly what the democrats wanted. They knew President Trump was going to win on Election Night but they wanted to keep looking for and counting ballots until they got over the top. Jordans name appears throughout the bipartisan report from the House Select Committee investigating january 6. The report says that jordan attended numerous post election meetings, senior white house officials and Rudy Giuliani discussing how to challenge the election results. The report also details how jordan led a Conference Call on january 2 discussing how to delay the joint Session Of Congress on january 6 to certify the electoral vote. Jordan and trump spoke later that night for 18 minutes according to the report. The night before january 6, jim jordan texted mark meadows and jordan said the Vice President pence should call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all. We know that is a pow thats right Vice President does not actually have. Thats right Vice President does not actually have. On january 6 jim jordan talked to the president at least twice. And in the final report the committee concluded that jordan was a significant player in the conspiracy who, quote, appears to have had materially relevance communications with donald trump or others in the white house but the committee did not know about the substance of those communications because jordan, quote, failed to comply with the select committees subpoenas, unq unquote. So what happens to the country if jim jordan is elected speaker of the house. Liz cheney paints a pretty dire picture. If the republicans decide that jim jordan should be speaker of the house, there would no longer be any possible way to argue that group of elected republicans could be counted on to defend the constitution. Cnn reached out to jordans office for reaction to these comments from cheney and hutchinson and from the january 6 select committee. We did not get a response. If we get one, well share it with you. Lauren fox is starting off our Coverage Today with a closer look at how the man once called a legislative terrorist by former republican House Speaker john boehner of his Fellow State Of Ohio has become a frontrunner for the speakership. Look, i like the job i got now. Never wanted to do this job. But someone has to. Who can bring the Team Together and can communicate to the country. Reporter jim jordan once a thorn in the side of gop leaders now vying to lead them as House Speaker after Kevin Mccarthy was booted from the role. I disagree with, you know, what took place, but those guys are friends of mine. Reporter the ohio congressman, chairman of the powerful judiciary committee. The fix is in. Reporter and known for his aggressive pursuit of an Impeachment Inquiry into president biden. This inquiry is so darn important. Reporter it boosted his authority within the gop conference. And earned him the endorsement of donald trump. Jordan voted against certifying the 2020 election. Americans instinctively know there was something wrong with this election. Reporter and was involved in conversations with the white house around the time of january 6. Including a 10 minute call with trump the morning of the attack. I talked to the president a couple times that day but i dont remember the times. Concerns that are out there reporter republicans nominated him to the january 6 committee. But then House Speaker nancy pelosi rejected him. Prior to his time in congress, jordan served as an Assistant Coach for ohio states wrestling program. Coming under fire after several former wrestlers claimed that jordan knew about the sexual abuse allegations involving Team Doctor Richard strauss. Six former wrestlers say they were present when jordan heard of or responded to sexual miss konl ducts complaints. He heard what i said. Reporter jordan has denied that he knew anything about strausss abuse when he worked at ohio state. Strauss died by suicide if 2005. Goif i had known there was abuse, i would have helped out their athletes. Reporter an independent report did not specifically name jordan. Or any Wrestling Coach at ohio state. But it did say 22 coaches were aware of rumors and complaints about strauss. On capitol hill, jordan made a name for position during the ben sga benghazi hearings. But he also gained a Reputation Assage at a timer for party leaders. As a Founding Member of the House Freedom caucus, he was part of the group that often tangled with then speaker john boehner. Prompting boehner to later call him a legislative terrorist. Now jordan says as speaker he is the only one that will be able to unite a deeply divided party. I think that i can do that. If i why think i could do that, i wouldnt run. Reporter lauren fox, cnn, capitol hill. Our thanks to lauren for that. Lets discuss this. Congressman, lets start with you. Do you share the opinion of Congresswoman Cheney and Cassidy Hutchinson that jim jordan is not committed to democracy and the constitution . I absolutely do. I mean, all you have to do is look at his record. Look at january 6. And everything leading up to that. Look at you played the sound bite where he says how did 74 Million People not be enough to win an election. So well keep looking until we find something. That is not how the constitution works. And the thing that you need to understand about jim jordan is he is a true believer, but he truly believes that the democrats, or the left, is an enemy of america and he will do anything even extra constitutionally to defeat them. That is his general belief. He believes that he is truly fighting the dark forces and the constitution in some cases is an impediment. It is very dangerous for this country. Very dangerous for the house. And ill just say this to my republican colleagues, really dangerous to the future of the Republican Party especially if you are the party that still ascribes to lincoln, reagan, et cetera. Congresswoman, he gave his view of what jim jordan thinks about the left. That is you. What do you think . Adam can tell that you our bipartisan january 6 committee worked very professionally and in an apolitical way to get to the truth of what happened on january 6 and leading up to it. And what we found, i agree with adam, i mean, jor began was up to his neck in this plot for all we could see, he refused to provide us the information that we needed. But it looked from the context that we could identify that he was heavily involved in the plot to overturn the constitution. And so i dont think that that is what america needs. Certainly i take offense to the idea that im not patriotic. I work hard to defend the constitution. Congressman, are you surprised that Kevin Mccarthy according to our sources plans to leave congress now that he is no longer speaker . No, im not surprised because he has always been about himself. It has always been about becoming speaker. That is his that was his instate since the day he took the oath i guess in 20006 since he was elected. Everything he did was to become speaker. He became speaker, but he obviously was a failed speaker as we see now and i dont think that his ego would allow him to stick around for the next year and a half. I would actually encourage him to resign now so he is not there to vote for somebody like jim jordan, force jim jordan to, you know, try to win 218 with one less vote. This is going to leave just think about it from a selfish perspective, the republican majority will now be down to whatever it will be, like three or Something Like that, but again, Kevin Mccarthy cares about one person and that is Kevin Mccarthy. That is the whole reason kevin went from the day after january 6 calling it what it was, an insurrection, to basically three weeks later putting the paddles on donald trump down in maralago and resurrecting his political career. And congresswoman, there is a lot of republicans trying to blame democrats for Speaker Mccarthy losing his job. Obviously you all voted in favor of the motion to vacate, although it is obviously also a tradition that the Minority Party never votes for the Opposition Party to be speaker. You told your democratic colleagues that you would resign before you assumed Kevin Mccarthy. What is your response to him resigning from congress . Assumed mccarthy. What is your response to him resigning from congress . I dont know kevin that well, but he is part of the trump conspiracy to overturn our democracy and consequently not someone that i could support. That he is resigning, i dont know about. But ill say this, his predecessor and mentor in the congress, bill thomas, very conservative guy who i didnt always degree with, but an honest conservative, bill has now rejected his former protege Kevin Mccarthy and has spoken out against him because i think that his character is lacking. His character to go to trump to try to adhere to the plan to overturn the constitution for personal ambition and now i guess to leave for money. So not a good look. We saw Something Like that play out in missouri also with senator danforth, very conservative Statesman Character rejecting josh hawley. Last word, congressman kin kinzinger, what is your word of haveis to anybody of the center right more moderate conservatives like yourself trying to decide what do in terms of the jordan scalise race . I say hold out. Hold out, Play The Game that they played to depose Kevin Mccarthy, you will not support somebody like jim jordan ever under any circumstances. And particularly because this will be very close to the end of u. S. Aid for ukraine and there are real impacts to this. And also the idea that the democrats didnt Save Mccarthy . I served in congress for 12 years. There wouldnt have been a single republican vote to save nancy pelosi in a similar situation. It is absolutely insane to try to put this dysfunction on the democrats. This is owned by the march to the far right and the Republican Party, a once great party that is lost and trending toward fascism. Thank you both for being here. Despite jim jordans political baggage, House Republicans want to keep it behind closed doors. But a republican uproar helped shut down a proposed fox debate over the speaker contest, that is ahead. And later, this horrific scene when an odor led authorities to a colorado funeral home. Stay with us. Back with the Politics Lead and the news that Kevin Mccarthy is expected to resign from congress before the end of his term. This as fox was all set to host a joint forum monday with the republican candidates for House Speaker, but just as soon as that was announced, it was canceled because both declared candidates, jim jordan and Steve Scalise, said no, sth , they we going to participate. This is after reports of major backlash from fellow republicans to the televised debate idea from House Republicans. Lets discuss all of this with charlie dent and also fred up ton, one of only ten republicans who voted to impeach donald trump after january 6. Congressman upton, what is your response to the news that Kevin Mccarthy is expected to leave congress after he has been e ejected as speaker . I think that was a given. Former sferer speakers dont li stick around. Im surprised that nancy pelosi is still there after losing the gavel. Kevin mccarthy doesnt want to walk down the aisle and see the guys in their normal spots. So he will leave pretty quickly. He has a lot of different opportunities. He is not used to doing constituent service, so time to get to do something else. So that is you know, completely understandable. Congressman dent, lets talk about the canceled Speaker Forum on fox. A source tells cnn that they ultimately agreed it would not be wise to participate. And kevin hern the congressman from oklahoma considering a bid for speaker posted we need to make this decision aa conference not on tv. The Reference Conference needs a family discussion. What made fox or anybody who was in favor of this think that the public or that the members of congress, the republicans, were clamoring for a televised debate over a position that they cant even vote on or agree upon right now . Well, i had mentioned on television earlier that i thought that having a televised debate on Fox News Issen would of the dumbest ideas ive ever heard just for this reason. I knew republican members would be outraged. Again, as kevin hern said, these are family conversations. Not to be aired in public. And further, what would they negotiate away on fox news . Were they going to make commitments on ukraine, is that condition of becoming speaker or what kind of idiotic things might they have thrown away on television that these conversations have to happen among the members, not in this wider audience. So im glad they scrapped it. But it was absolutely boneheaded idea to think that this was good. In fact i wonder if some of the guys really have a sense of the conference if they are willing to go on television to talk about this. Just shows the influence of these outside groups that they have on the inside of how the republican conference works. That is a major congressman upton, you served in the house for 36 years. And when you left you called congress more toxic than ever before. As you look at the way mccarthy was ousted, is it even more toxic than since you left . You know, it really is. I mean, it is amazing. Even look at the public charlie and Adam Kinzinger are good friends. They have only passed 13 bills that have gotten to the president s desk. None of the appropriation bills. It is so toxic, so partisan. Not only the house floor but the Committee Process as well. And i think that americans across the country are saying what is the matter with this bunch . Almost attacks on both houses in terms of the inability to work in the solid bipartisan civil basis. Yeah. And congressman dent, both republican members of the january 6 committee, congresswoman liz cheney and Congressman Adam Kin Zingerkinz former members, are expressing concerns about jim jordans as speaker saying he cant be trusted to uphold the constitution, he cant be trusted with the speakership, he tried to overturn the election. Are you also concerned . Of course. In fact i think that the bigger problem for jim jordan is going to be many of these pragmatic more moderate members and those very competitive seats who recognize that if jim jordan is speaker could present an enormous liability to them in their district. So there is a real political implication here. And i would concur that jim jordan will have to explain a lot. You just ran the clip from the ohio state situation, all the election denial business. I think that there is a i have to think even among those members who arent going to say anything publicly, they would really fear a speaker jordan. Friend and i were there when jim was good at he was good at blowing up deals. He was never putting them together. He was always the guy who was a horn in the side of the leadership and now he will try to run as the guy who will unify the conference . That is a pretty tall order for him. Given concerns that cheney and kinzinger have about jim jordan and his commitment to the constitution, are you worried about the role he may play as speaker . Yeah, i mean, you look at what he has bun done on the judiciary committee. That is one of the more partisan committees. But they blocked the Immigration Reform and a good deal a few years ago to do Border Security and as well as a pathway for dreamers to get citizenship. And he was opposed to even an amber alert for an active shooter. And so his inability to work with the january 6 committee and what you know, he didnt turnover his phone calls, a number of things. And of course i was there that day as well. And so it is you know, it will be a different place should he win. Thank you both. Good to see you. Thanks. Coming up next the Audio Recordings and flerts behind bars from an activist in iran who was just awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In our world lead, Narges Mohammadi whose name is synonymous with the battle for human rights in iran, has won this years Nobel Peace Prize for her, quote, fight against the oppression of women in iran and her fight to promote human rights and freedom for all. Mohammadis resiliency against Iranian Regime has come with a severe price. She has been jailed for most of the past two decades. Right now mohammadi is inside irans notorious Evin Prison Serving a ten year term sentenced to 154 lashes, accused 6 actions against National Security and propaganda. And for the past 18 months mohammadi has been banned from speaking with her husband and her children. Yes, mohammadi is imprisoned, but she is not silent. Despite the sacrifices of both her family and her freedom, mohammadi has not backed down in the fight against the Iranian Regimes oppression. Before she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, kmohammadi shared recording and a letter from behind bars. And Joe Mjomana Karedsheh has this exclusive report. Reporter not even the darkest cells of the notorious evin prison has silenced this fearless fighter for freedom. Narges mohammadi, her life has been a cycle of arrest and rearrest. And now serving a ten year prison term and sentenced to 154 lashes, not only has the regime taken away her freedom. The last time she held her twins was eight years ago. They were only eight. For her activism, mohammadi has been accused of actions against National Security and prop began today against the state and she is now facing more charges as she continues to defy liantly sk out. In a record being she reads experts of a letter she sent cnn. Translator this letter is not written by a free feminist in a developed and democratic society. But rather by an imprisoned woman who like millions of iranian women have been living under the authority and oppression of a Military System with ideological and tyrannical foundations. Reporter since the age of six, deprived of life, youth, Fellmill Femininity and motherh. And shall i kaurls she calls ou what she says is the high pock dress. Prisoners sexually assaulted. And she lent her powerful voice to the uprising and for that, she was recently sentenced to another year in prison. But that has not deterred mohammadi who with the help of intermediaries responded to questions in writing detailing incidents of sexual assaults dating back to 1999. She also mentions her own experience. But since the protests she says they have increased significantly, describing them now as systematic. She writes ive heard the narratives of three protesting women who were sexually assaulted. One was a wellknown activist of the Student Movement who upon entering the prison filed a complaint with the authorities and announced that after it being arrested on the streets her one hand and one leg were cuffed and tied and in that position she was sexually assaulted. I went with one of my cell mates under the pretext of taking food for a prisoner. We saw bruises on her stomach, thighs, arms and legs. The Iranian Regime has denied allegations including a Krn Investigation of using Sexual Violence and rape calling them baseless and false. Mohammadi, an unstoppable force. Her fight extending Deep Inside Evin where she lead ises women who continue to protest. Their chants of women, life, freedom captured in this recording shared with cnn. [ chanting ] they sing the song now and an them for irans freedom movement. And jake, as you would expect the Iranian Regime is condemning the decision by the Nobel Peace Prize committee calling it politically motivated and biased. And Human Rights Organizations around the world yet again are calling for the Immediate Release of this fearless human rights defender. And we have to mention, we dont even know if she has received the news. Her family is telling us that on thursdays and fridays she is not allowed phone calls because the women who are in every van po evin prison, they are not allowed phone calls. But she did prepare a statement because she was short listed for the award and we received a copy of that statement and she is vowing to continue the battle against oppression for human rights, for her people, for iran, and she says that she is ready to stay in jail the rest of her life for that. The people will ultimately win that fight against the Iranian Regime. I dont know when, but they ultimately will win. Jomana karedsheh, thank you so much. Coming up, colorado and what looked like a typical neighborhood funeral home, but wait until you hear what Authorities Say was going on inside. The fbi is getting involved in this one. A horrific scene is how the sheriff described the inside of a colorado funeral home now under investigation after neighbors reported and odor coming from the facility. We have learned even more shocking details from the f Fremont County coroner. We found over 100 decedents who were improperly stored and has created a hazardous scene. The return to nature funeral home is known for offering green burials and described as, quote, no chemicals, metal or unnatural term, just you and the earth. Lucy kafanov is joining us. What more are we learning from the authorities . Reporter yeah, jake, an absolutely gruesome discovery. Authorities say that they found the remains of more than 115 bodies that were improperly stored at this return to Nature Funeral Home In Penrose which is about 30 miles south of colorado springs. The Fremont CountySheriffs Office was initially tipped off to what they described as a foul stench at the facility. They returned with a Search Warrant the next day and discovered these bodies. The Colorado Bureau of investigation and the fbi are helping out with the investigation. But right now, the priority is for hazmat teams to effectively comb through this scene to gather all of the remains which then need to be processed and identified. The families will need to be informed. And this could be a very lengthy process. Take a listen. Forensic identification through fingerprints, medical or Dental Records or possibly dna will need to be completed. With the number of decedents we have in this facility, and the Identification Process that needs to be completed, this could take several months. Reporter now, Officials Say that there is no threat to the public, but one of the Deputy Coroners did sustain a rash of some type and had to be taken to the hospital which is why they have deployed the hazmat teams to the scene. Obviously a lot of questions and concerns by the community and Authorities Say that their priority right now is the focus on the impact of the families. And what more can you tell us about the funeral home and have any arrests been made . Reporter yeah, there is no arrests made as of yet. Officials do say that it is too early to say whether a crime was actually committed. This is all part of the investigation. The company itself specializes in what they say are chemicalfree cremations and socalled natural burials. Public records do show it was established about six years ago and that the registration of the funeral home expired with the state at the end of last year. We do hear from officials that the owners of the facility have been cooperative with the investigation, but obviously a lot more questions than answers at this point. All right, lucy kafanov, thanks for the report. And just in, a political plot twist. Republican congressman Kevin Mccarthy is commenting on the reports from sources close to him that he is considering resigning from congress. And he is contradicting them. Well have more on that next. Just in to our Politics Lead, former House SpeakerKevin Mccarthy is now denying reports from his camp that he plans to resign midterm, after his ouster by members of his own party earlier this week. Cnns Melanie Zanona is live for us on capitol hill. So, melanie, what is mccarthy saying, and what do you think is the reason for the confusion . Reporter speaker Kevin Mccarthy just talked to reporters. I was there. He said he is not resigning. He has more work to do. He wants to help the Republican Party build back the majority and expand the majority next year. He has sent different signals behind closed doors. Sources say he was saying, if i leave i would at least want to stay through the speakers election next week. Clearly he was considering it at some point. Also behind closed doors, he told members he wants to go home and spend time with his family. At this point, Kevin Mccarthy says he is sticking around. He has more work to do. Lets take a listen. Youre not resigning . No, im not resigning. Are you running for reelection . Yes. Yes, youll run or youre thinking about running . Im going to help the people i have here and were going to expand it further. Reporter theres so much uncertainty in the gop. They still do not know whos going to replace Kevin Mccarthy. They are scrambling to pick their next leader. And no one knows exactly how that race is going to take place next week. Good for him for sticking around and doing the job his voters put him there to do. Do we know if Congressman Mccarthy plans to get involved in the speaker race at all . Reporter he says hes not going to get involved, that hes going to stay on the sidelines here. And the two men running in the race are people that are somewhat close to Kevin Mccarthy. You have Steve Scalise, his top deposit ifor a long time. Scalise was always seen as someone waiting in the wings, potentially, to step up to the plate if Kevin Mccarthy were ever to stumble or step aside. So, theyve long sort of been seen as frenemies on capitol hill. Then you have jim jordan. He is someone who is the House Judiciary Chairman. He has become a very strong Kevin Mccarthy ally in recent years because Kevin Mccarthy took him under his wing and made him House Judiciary Chairman as part of his effort to bring the Freedom Caucus more into the fold. Kevin mccarthy says he doesnt want to get involved, but he does want to see the conference find someone to lead them. And he wants to help steady what has been a very traumatic, i guess, chaotic experience inside the House Republican conference over these last few days. It doesnt seem as though either candidate as of right now has 218 votes. Do you get a sense that Donald Trumps endorsement of jim jordan has had any impact on the race at all . Or do you think the people that are lining up behind jordan, who are the trumpy kinds of folks who would have gone to jordan anyway, who, to be frank, is the trumpier kind of candidate anyway. Of course its a big deal to have that endorsement, at least on the far right. Those republicans were probably going to be supporting jim jordan anyway. Im not sure it moves the needle that much. Also, its going to be a closed door secret ballot, at least on the first initial vote republicans take. On the other side of it, that endorsement doesnt do anything to win over moderates. Centrists are going to be a key constituency. Jim jordan knows that. He has been trying to reach out to members trying to make the case he is the best to unite the gop, in part because he has the ear of the Freedom Caucus, which is behind part of the chaos. Both of them know that at the end of the day, theyre going to need as many votes as possible. Jake, what i can tell you is that a lot of republicans say that before they go a house floor vote, they want to have this sorted out. They do not want that dysfunction on display like it was in january, where it took Kevin Mccarthy 15 rounds to become speaker. So, they really want to get behind closed doors, hash this out. Theyll close their Conference Meeting wrrks they elect a peeker. And they really want to make sure that whoever that person is, theyll have 218 votes. What im wondering is, there was an era when tom delay was a very powerful member of congress, but he was perceived as too toxic, too radioactive is actually a better word for it, too radioactive to become the speaker of the house. And i think he even understood that, that he would be a liability with the republicans and more moderate districts. And i just i wonder if the more moderate republicans worry that if speaker jordan would be radioactive in their districts because he is you know, liz cheney is out there talking about how he is part of the january 6 conspiracy. Hes all over the report. He clearly was trying to overturn the election. Right. And hes also the face of the biden Impeachment Inquiry. So, yes, there are moderates who are concerned about that. But others are really keeping their powder dry and are telling me theyre open to a jim jordan as speaker. To your point, this is a very different Republican Party than weve seen in the last decade or so. Indeed, Melanie Zanona, thank you so much. A request by donald trump, this may have gone under the radar. He asked the judge to dismiss one of his criminal cases, and that request could have major Domino Effects on another case.
