Trey good evening, and thank you for joining us. It i am trey gowdy and this is Sunday Night In America. In the world at a precarious state by the house passed a series of aid package for ukraine, israel, taiwan. E coukraine continues to fight foi its life against russian invasion and israel was attackei by Hamas Last October and last week by taiwan and threatened by china. It ch is not just the need for help that is obvious but so too, thea anger among the republicans they had Package Product for a vote. In tthe final tally overwhelmind bipartisan and yet still deeply contentious. A majority of republicans actually voted against providing aid to ukraine. T wotwo doesnt republicans voted against providing aid to israel. Some republicans threaten to get rid of yet another speakerus e because of these aid packages brought to the floor. Joining us now is someone who served two stands in the house of representatives including chairingommi the committee on oversight and government reform, darrell issa from the Great W State of california. El welcome, mr. Chairman. A thank you for joining us. Ge more republicans voted for aid for ukraine than for it and tw dozens reported aid for israel. You have stood in congress for a long time so let me ask why, Whs Thque Boats against ukraine, and why he against israel aid . Trade, you know from your experience those meetings and conference where people tell you what they need to have anpeal ability to vote for it or why they wont vote for something even if they agree on that. N itthis was one of those cases. We all know the most importantav thing we have is an obligationow is to defend our own borders. Many republicans were angry that there wasnt more in the way of protecting our own borders, l countering an administration that willfully lealliod over 10 Million People in the country. That led to votes that would have otherwise been yes withe ac package that included Border Security. But in this case, it was a protest vote. Thersoe was no question at t ale are still the party of National Defense here and around the world. Trey i have an old chairman, darrell issa who once told me never let perfect be the enemy of good. I am sure some of our viewers arryine trying to figure this o. You laid it out. W i have been in Thosepr Conferens and you have been in more of them but socalled core of right, bob good, good, andy biggs, matt gaetz voted with Rashida Tlaib who thinks from the river to thide sea is a campfire song, Cori Bush Whoseas wants to defund all police much of mull bowman who has a thing for fire alarms. Fo so for the viewers who have in u Congress Like you have, what do Wep Make Of The World where the hills Freedom Caucuses on the same side with the squad . Unfortunately, it wasnt quite all of the Freedom Caucus but there is no question at all, we have the sort of breakdown in this assumption we arekdow a te. When you were there we were much more of a team with Division Going on in conference then unity on the floor. But again, there is that issue that unites us spirit Border Security, but also the issue n that some people dont get enou, it divides us. Thhe next election with President Trump coming back tog office, Border Security being a priority, i think we will be able to focus also on the fact there are other borders that enemies are attacking, which by the way, includes the philippines and taiwan which didnt get the Big Headlines Bu was quite bipartisan and come in fact, we know china is a threatt and that is absolutely something where i think we are doing thels right thing and we are going to do more. Trey chairman, you are from california, the home of Ronald Reagan, who was all about peace through strength, tear down this wall, fighting communism. Is something happening within the g. O. P. That there is a j growing dovish segment, or isse this just an anomaly . Emit seems to me like a Ronald Reagan peace through strength, that there is Anothert Heside within the g. O. P. Side you were closer to it. What do you make of it . The i think there is always been another side. Ry reagan unified the country byin having a message and speaking above those who might say, w well, you know, this is good, but this is imperfect. There was also the fact that disastrous withdrawal from afghanistan may defeat after 20 years of victories, People Living in oppression, a massive loss of lives of those that we went there to establish an opportunity for freedom. All of that leaves Peoplittle Le disgruntled hero to quitee candidly, trey, they are not enough people that remember the cold war and why we fought it. , they talk about reg and come they really dont understand o reagan came in at the end of a halfcentury plus of fighting an adversary that wouldnt go awaym and said, you know what, we will take them on and doublena down, even after the disaster of the vietnam war ended. That needs to happen again youre going to leave thosadeer leaders are in the wings. Im very happy with the company ithat i had in voting for ukrav in voting to push back on these dictators. Trey chairman darrell issa, the great state oa california, which by the way,ls california t mate decide who controls the house. It will not be ruby Red Districts like the one i live io but more likely to be california and new york. Thank you, mr. Chairman, for joining us on a sunday night, and i look forward to seeing you soon. Irma thank you, mr. Chairman. Trey a third republican joining fit defraud health mike johnson. Others threatening to follow suit. Johnson had to rely on democrats to even pass the Rule Allowingda debate on the foreign aidon package for israel, taiwan, ukraine and johnson allowed to vote on isa three authorization. Matt kays, bob good laid arms with the squad to get rid of onf republican speaker now they have Buyers Remorse here are the s would not democrat step in to help mccarthy, but r theyes are writing to the rescue of mike johnson. What igoins going on inside the republican conference and how does this portend fohousr the november election, utah congressman Jason Chaffetz, welcome, Marjorie Taylor greene called theus republican speakerf the house trader, which im pretty sure is aa Tr Crime For H you can be hanged. To the republican colleagues refer to her as moscow marjorie. Ri so things have changed a littleu since the you and i were therekd and politely poking fun at one another suits here this is a pretty serious fight going on within thethe g. O. P. Conferenc. Yeah, trey when they moved ts vacate the chair with just one person, i thought that was a monumental mistake. T there should be a more significant number of people to call for another vote. Cr it is interesting because democrats can do that at any point, and they havent. U i think they need to change that. One of the challenges i see him and i dont know if you see it this way, but i see it that members have forgotten one of the cores th competencies that r founders sought in a member of congress. That is the art of u persuasion. It is not good enough to go on instagram and throw some bombsnd out there and yell and screa tm and throw a tantrum. It is an art of persuasion. That is where the government set up. You have 445 members and if you are not getting your way and frustrated, then you are failin because you have yet to do whato yoo dou are supposed to do, whis persuade others to see it th toe way that you do. Trey baking of the art ofar e persuasion or antithesis of that, lets listen to the congresswoman from georgia together, and then i will ask you a question olan the other side. St my jootheb has been to Bety American and he betrayed bierican voters peered under his leadership, hede passed the bidy administrations policies and fully funded them. We are going to fight in congress to do Everything We Car to stop this kind of you in a pretty leadership. Mike johnson speaker, he needs to do the right thing to resign and allow us to move forward in a controlled process. If he doesnnot do so, he will e vacated. Trey vac you know, jc, that sounds like a democratic attack ad up here that what that sounds like to me. And yet one republican going after the speaker of the house. So look, i mean, november elections are just a few months away. The districts have determine who wins the majority are not ruby r Red Districts in utah and South Carolina. Utahe swing countries dont make districts in South Carolina in new york. How was his name fighting and namecalling when the voters in Swing Districts . The namet hear Hakeem Jeffries come out of her lips and talk about Thest Frustration that she has for the democrats. Look, the Building Camome E up i would have voted against it here are the is securing our border c over supporting all of those other worthy causes i think is paramount. And i would be frustrate. D about that. Bus ret lets remember when the majority of the majority, the socalled castor rule that you when i lived under, when you have so many people that are voting andng supporting those kinds of things and want to see those bills happen i go to the floor, then put them up for a vote. I got up in the Think Congresso should be voting more even if i dont like it. I can vote against it. About to rail against the s speaker to say it is allpe on hd he some democratic, you know, you know party person, i dont think it is productive whatsoever. She would be, i think, better off to shoot that fire that she has towards the democrats and try to get them to explain whya, they wont secure the borders but will secure everybody elses but not secure our own. Trey you know, it is almostlike like theres not two democrat u. S. Senators in georgia. I mean by that is where my ire would be directed and how my dia state elected to democrats, which gave them a Working Majority back when it happened. Lots of this, i think my jc, is about pain raising and pain. He made a lot of money matt gaetz going after mccarthy. A lott watched sue and you becae Household Name of the Oversight Committee but not because you were calling people names. You actually did it through your work, through Committee Work and legislative work. But we ever gel bet back to thes were actually working hard ialls what made you famous and instead of what you say makes you fa famous . Thank you. D and i appreciate it. I think you did the same as you made the argument. I think back to patrick monahan, the Democratic Center three plus years ago. I didnt agreeo no with much whp said, but his ability to people to go to the floor and make an argument here because all you do that and others in our conference doon that. Go tim scott is exceptionally good and marco rubio was good at this pier that is why congress and the founders have the set up. It was wil not to have the biggt following on instagram and getu people look, im frustrated with the way the country isut wgoing, but i also know my frustration is mostly fired towards a feckless joe biden in democrats wont secure ourbu border. But you have got to be able to make that argument. Barack obama was a president and i had sevelln bills passed thats because i was able to persuade people on both sides of the y isle. Spoon Jason Chaffetz proving you can be famous anouand still notr a republican speaker to be guilty of a capital offense. Thank you for joining us on Ana Sunday Night we look forward to visiting with you soon. Ab thank you. Le trey still ahead the outgoing mayor of jerusalem where israel stands and present threat from iran, that is next on Sunday Night In America. Trey welcome back toay Sunday Night In America. War r in the holy land continue. Last weekend iran attacked Thecn Jewish StateLaunching Hundredsl of drones and missiles. Israel responded this week with strikes of its own inside iran while the direct attacks betweel iran and israel over. Will iran revert to proxies to a do the dying and fighting for them . What about the u. S. . With russia and china citing with iran, where is the worldsa Greatest Superpower In This World Filmic War . President biden was clear of condemnation in iran but also clear of his criticism of israel. Reportedly israel wanted to a ndrespond forcefully and medial. But biden made it clear israelth would do so alone without the help of the u. S. The United Nations has been about as worthless ass you would expect, but the European Union stepped up sanctions to discourage War Iranian Aggression Pure the world is dangerous, congresses feckless, joe biden is trying to appease both sides heading intoi the november elections grudgingly siding with israel but according to young democrat voters who decidedly antiisrael. Joining us now is deputyer usmayor of jerusalem, fleur hassannahourm, welcome, iran has been at war for decades ando Hundreds Ownf Missiles and drons n rained down on israel. So first of all, tell us what done inside of Yourite Country despite robust defensesp for actual psychological damage you suffered last weekend . So, who are very right. We have been at war with iran for many, many years, but they have always but never shown their hand. It has always been a proxy war through their agents, hamas in the south of israel, has below to the north of israel, lebanon that destroyed syria. They have gone in with us before and even killed some americans servicemen and women In The Red Sea Channel here today, what we seee is is for the first time ever, iran has shown they are hand and iran attacked israel directly an unprecedented credible amount of we are grateful to the United States for helping us fend off that very and brutalck attack, which could have been really, really, really bad. Thanks to help from the United States, france, the u. K. , d even the Jordanian Air force, we managed to repelcf the attack. That could have been really devastating. Trey you are correct thater the u. S. And other friendly nations did defend israel and helped with the Iron Dome Hewarc israel responded to the iranian attacked for up to some of us, the attack was more muted than we were contemplating. In your judgment, was israel planning something more robust and discouraged from doing so in particular by the Biden Administration . Look, we are in the middle f a war with a Brutal War With Hamas In The South who Haveno Cetaken 134 innocent men, women, and babies. And if we went allout war with mean a Hugetu Regional War Everybody Wouldal have been drugged into. Ir ani actually think iran isi th nazi germany of the 1930s. I think the world will eventually have to deal with iran. Enough with this attitude of appeasing them here they will not be appeased. These are fundamentalist who want to push the wall back 500it years. Thsooner or later, they threaten the entire free world. At the moment, they start withy israel, but they make it very i srclear, israel is the little satan and americas the big satan and they talk about it clearly. A so, at the moment, maybe time for regional war because that may have escalated to that, but i think eventually we will get there. But the administration thinks we will get there or not, it is inevitable. U me trey you mentioned iran as part of this new evil access, access of evil hunting back toan world war ii. President biden seem to think iran can be negotiated with them a country fundamentally believes in depth to israel the United States is a goodgo negotiating partner. Tiatin what should the world respond to iran be either sanctions or militarily . First of all, i dont believe people when they keep telling you that they wantbe to kill yo, you should believe them. Y, for years already, what iran wants to do is change the world and start with the middle east. The middle east has got a very significant american presence e here in and iran doesnt wants america we have seen pie irae agent of the United States and the free world. So they see saudi arabia, the immigrants, lorraine and a threat to any country in the world that wants
