it's a lousy way to run a government and how to pay your bills. this shouldn't be happening in this country. some people have proposed ways to automatically raise the debt limit for example. but politically, it would be a disaster. and i think the speaker knows it. but he has people in his caucus who have never voted to raise the debt limit, ever. >> and also, gloria, one of the things about what mccarthy is dealing with is several members who believe it's possible to just pick and choose which pbils that the federal government pays. he has people who have that fringe view, and that one of the reasons why they're willing to go up to the edge of this. the other point, they're talking about lifting the debt s.e.as.eceiling for a year. that could put us back in this position in a presidential election year next year. so this story is not over. >> i've covered congress a long
be a fringe view, but it is speaking to a part of the republican party right now that sees these leaks as a public service in some way, it's playing into the grievance politics that we've seen for the past six years in this country, and i think this is the other subplot here because this allowed us a window into some of the spaces that particularly young white men in this country are inhabiting, and it wasn't just anti ukraine. it was anti black, anti trans, anti gay, very pro gun if you look at a lot of the paraphernalia that this young man was collecting, but this is just another. the exclamation point on the point that a lot of the politics, uh, right now in congress, for instance, is basically people who are very bombastic who are about us versus them and grievance politics and that this is actually having a real impact on our culture, and i'm young people. here's the marjorie taylor green tweet, and then you can jump in. she tweeted this week. jack to share a is white,
white, male, christian and anti war and that makes him an enemy to the biden administration. she goes on. and on criticizing the war in ukraine, criticizing, basically criticizing nato and getting slammed this morning by lindsey graham on this week. what they're suggesting. will destroy america's ability to defend itself. there is no justification for this and for any member of congress to suggest it's okay to leak classified information because she agreed with the cause is terribly irresponsible and put some america in serious danger. yes, so what? mar-a-lago green said. i agree with what heidi? i mean, she invoked in her tweet. he was white. he was young. he was male, same things that tucker carlson said. and i do think that some republicans like you mentioned are trying to take that as a fringe view as one way to criticize the vitamin ist
conference members, it puts him in league with these insurrectionists even further, providing them material and others potentially who can attack the capitol perhaps with more success next time. this is what happens when the speakership is dependent on the absolute lowest common denominator. it puts not just members of congress, but members of the public and the capitol at risk. it puts the capitol police officers at risk. but, yes, you know, the most radical elements of kevin mccarthy's conference believe that the january 6th defendants who attacked police that day are somehow political prisoners or heroes, and now mccarthy has aligned himself with that fringe view. >> and there are more news reports today tying mccarthy and his caucus to the insurrectionists. let me go through some of those with you while we have you, congressman. this is reported by cbs news, that a senior mccarthy aide as well as house oversight chairman each with the mother of january
europe trying to present a unified front, lot of prominent republicans backing that, but there are some small minority, but loud of minority of maga republicans that the biden administration is doing far too much. can that split grow? >> that split has been growing across the party. with folks like the governor of florida, ron desantis. it's started of this fringe really extreme attack on biden and foreign policy, tying it into immigration and whether how and he cares more about ukraine than the southern borders here he says but that's no longer a fringe view and more and more republicans are joining in the attacks and taking issue i biden on his ukraine approach altogether and also said they don't want to write a blank check, as they've said to

pouring into our culture. he's trying to paint a very sad picture of immigrants. >> this contuntry has a pretty poor history of welcoming immigrants at times of need. and the challenge for us is that the president believes he's speaking to somebody who's listening. i'm not actually sure who the president's constituents are. >> you were a little shook on that. >> you like to think this a fringe view. i like to consider america one of the most welcoming countries in the world. and the reality is economic immigrants, people who are coming here should go through a system. we should have a system, we should have appropriate number, appropriate ways to deal with them at the border. a country is defined in many ways by its borders and that's acceptable. the problem is two fold. one that the president seems to think by separating children
