congressmen, they are ready to blow up this entire deal despite being just days from default. this deal fails, fails completely. and that s why these members and others will be absolutely opposed to the deal and we will do everything in our power to stop it and end it now. tomorrow s bill is a bunch of fake news and fake talking points that will do nothing to reign in out of control federal spending. in good conscious should support this. not one republican should vote for this deal. it is a bad deal. not only are republicans becoming deeply divided on this but there are even thefts to oust mccarthy as speaker because of the deal he made with biden. joining me now is texas congressman chip roy and by ronned donald both members of the freedom caucus both against the deal. welcome both. starting with you congressman chip roy, what is the realistic alternative to this? because i understand we wouldn t formally default we could pay the interest on our debt but our debt
greater culture war in my book than the notion that we re going to rack up $31 trillion in debt. that s true. on a credit card and dump it on our children and grandchildren. you know, republicans are up against a crazed party, lunatics, who and, you know, just over the last week, we were listening to iyonna presley talk about, in religious terms, the importance of racking up trillions of more debt to dump on her children and grandchildren. charlie let me just ask you do you think there s more that could have been done here right now? do you think mccarthy could have gotten a better deal? no, i think this is a tremendous accomplishment for the house leadership given the very difficult numbers that they re facing. that said, i also think the house republicans have a stronger hand than i think a lot of people give them credit for. when they come up with a bill, a spending bill, that s the starting point, that s supposed to be the starting point. the reason the founders wanted th

me finish. we did all that because we were unified and working together. that broke down this week. that s my point. we need to regroup leadership needs to sit dunn and bring us back to the table so we don t do exactly what they did this weekend. the limit save grow act however would have been an extraordinary bill to leave sitting outlet right through this weekend because joe biden was in a box. he was up against the ropes and we should have held him there and gotting more for the american people than a spending freeze for $4 trillion. i don t know how much more you could have gotten. kevin mccarthy negotiated up to the last second. i take your point though. congressman donald, hakeem jeffries, he had some words about so-called maga republicans apparently are the problem. let s listen to what hakeem jeffries had to say. we re not interested in political gainsmanship we re interested in avoiding a catastrophic default. unfortunately you have far too many extreme maga republicans he
