Hold a vote on its version of a Continuing Resolution. Speaker mccarthy is now turning to democrats, to support his plan, and shifting blame first for potential shutdown while willing to risk his speakership it would appear. You know, what if somebody wants to remove, because i want to be the adult in the, room go ahead and try. I think this country is too important. I will stand with our military, i will stand our Border Agents, i will stand with those that half to get their medicine from government as well. I think thats too important. We have done 70 percent of our job, where the senate has done, nothing the senate cant even get anything to the floor in time. We can, and you know, what if i have to risk my job, for standing up for the american, public i will do that. We have reporters in place from washington to florida, to cover all of the we are beginning right there with both of those ladies, lets go first to julie tsirkin, the capitol hill. What is happening with the houses efforts to pass a 45 days short term Spending Bill . We are still in the same place we were in terms of the house, Floor Democrats right now are trying to use procedural tactics to buy them sometime as they meet, and trying to figure out what the heck they are going to do about this 45day cpr. Heres why it puts them for a lack of a better word in such a pickle. Its because its a 45 decline extension of the governments ahead of that shutdown deadline tonight, it includes Disaster Relief for millions of americans that we know have been impacted by weather, by other natural disasters all throughout the summer months, and into the fall. Speaker mccarthy had talked to me about this just last hour, take a listen to what he laid out. You guys are still here . Wow, we had an interesting [inaudible] i have a meeting right now. Mister speaker, will the clean crp house on the floor . Well have determined, heres an opportunity, hell only fill up democrats fight against it. This is an opportunity to make sure our troops get paid while we finish our jobs. The house has done 70 of all of the appropriations dollar figures, the senate has done nothing. The senate cannot move a bill in time for governor shutting, down but i cannot look at the troops in the hour and worry here they are defining our, freedoms and lets keep, it open while we finish the work that we have to get done. What do you say to democrats who say that this is rushed, that they need more time to read this bill, are you willing to give them a couple of hours . How is it rushed, when its just a basic cpr. They are making lies about know this only goes 45, days it has nothing to do with anything, else the only thing thats added into it, it helps the faa, the white house was claiming the faa, problem the house has passed that faa bill, the senate has. Not or trying to solve a lot of problems that the senate has failed here. We had the disaster money for those people in hawaii, in, florida and california. It would devastate that the white house asked for. All we do is say, keep government funded as it, is make sure the faa can go forward, make sure the troops get, paid make sure the Border Agents are getting paid, and lets finish our i tried to make sure, i tried to pass why dont you bring it up more . [inaudible] let me answer. Mister speaker let me answer her question. I tried every different way, we are watching today after day after day after week after week. Ive tried to pass the most conservative, to keep us going, to secure the, border that did not get enough votes. Here we are hours away before a Government Shutdown. All im saying here is giving an opportunity to keep Government Open for 45 days, because the senate has not on their, work we finish doing our work so we can secure the border, if the Border Agents are paid, and we have all these, russian what would next month look like . I dont want to do. Thats what our military look like . Secretary of transportation was we protect the faa because the senate did not do their, job and the house did. What were able to do is keep it funded, keep our work going, i have made sure that house states in session, people are not going home. People are finished doing their work, hopefully the senate would start theirs. We will be able to move forward. What do you say to hardliners that say this preserves under pelosi. Its 45. Days what happens those things keep going as well. What were trying to do is in the short time, period, sometimes there obstacles, but dont lose sight of where the objectives. Find your way around the, obstacles i dont think the American Public should be punished for. This if i want to be the adult in the, room and the democrats want to vote no. Thats on them. When is the president done to try to keep this Government Open . Are they lobbying against this bill, because thats what im hearing. What could they oppose on . It we provided them. I want to pass the most conservative, bill where we cut the, money secure the border, but we didnt have enough republican selves to. Thats here we are, hours away, keep it open. Keep the week going so we can keep the border, secure and. Are you worried about losing your job given the fact that youre bringing this to the floor . Think about that for one. Moments i never fear. That if i lose my job, overlooking out for the American Public for taking a stance for our troops, and our Border Agents, then im not quite sure what people want. This allows us the time to get the job done, but why should they be punished . Because the senate did nothing. Think about that question. If somebody wants to remove me from Putting Americans first, then so be it. So you heard in that long for minute interaction with Speaker Mccarthy, he feels like this is really the best shot to keep Government Open, and hes putting the ball back and democrats courts, who are going to have a hard time voting against. This theyre going through the bill, now at another gaggle i asked him why shouldnt democrats have time to read that spill, he said they have a hard time reading about keeping the Government Open, that was his response to. Him theyre going through it line by line, now democrats are huddling here trying to delay on the floor to prevent this vote from starting just yet. , meanwhile across the chamber you have senators who are piling into that, remember they have their own stopgap Government Funding Measure that includes ukraine, that includes the disaster aid that this bill does. Certainly, if the house was able to pass their version of this bill, that will put pressure on senators who are led by democratic leadership. Okay, let me ask you how long you think its going to take four of the House Members that are convening right now, looking over this additional 70 pages or so. So this new Continuing Resolution. Bill how long is that going to take for them to go through, when do you expect it to come up for . About thats the number on. Question if you are up to speaker, mccarthy he wouldve custom to vote on this bill, an hour and a half ago at this point. That was his original plan. It looks like the motion to adjourn the chamber is going to fail on a bipartisan vote, again, this is all just a procedural tactic to buy them sometime as they huddle and figure out next, epps because in the word of one lawmaker, this was a surprise, to them and theyre going to have to figure out what to. Do voting against government ahead of this deadline, even without the ukraine aid that many lawmakers up here, republicans and democrats think its vital, and crucial, its going to be hard for them to vote against a bill to fund the government because of that. No matter the, optics and no matter the just gonna let you, know the vote was tallied in the motion was not adopted, so were seeing movement there on the, floor it looks like House Members are returning to their seats. After Milling Around and communicating whats happening. Were going to let you go for, moment dont go too far, but you can certainly poke your head in there and see whats going on in just a, moment so thank you, julie excellent reporting. Lets go from there now to the white house, monica alba is there with reaction from President Biden. Always with her excellent reporting is. Well we know that democrats are blameing republicans, house republicans, theyre pointing the finger and blaming the senate. Who does the president think is responsible for this impending shutdown . The president has been really clear, alex all week long when he was asked about this, and then we actually heard and learned a little bit more about his position in an interview that he did yesterday that was posted overnight, and its exactly, thats the white house has been very clear that the president really puts the blame on house republicans, and specifically has called out Speaker Mccarthy because it was that Handshake Agreement that the two men worked for days on back when we were in this position months ago to try to avoid a crippling default of the United States that would have been the first in history. That that Ceiling Debacle where we were also seeing these hour by hour negotiations, and movements on capitol hill. President was very. Once they did get to that agreement that it was Senate House Democrats in the, end all got behind, including the speaker, the president is now saying that its the speakers responsibility to stick to that deal. Heres how he put it in this new interview. The speakers made a terrible bargain. Hes willing to do things that i think he knows, are inconsistent with constitutional processes. Number one, number two, i think it says that there is a group of maga republicans who want to have a fundamental change in the way the system works. Thats what worries me the most. The white house of course is very closely monitoring all of these developments, watching carefully, and as we have, seen they have really tried to make a clear picture here of what the shutdown would be, and all of the federal agencies that would be should there be a lapse in funding tonight at midnight, and we know what it means also in terms of these hundreds of thousands of workers who would be furloughed, what would it mean for air traffic controllers, Border Patrol agencies, some of these people doing the most intense and who would have to the white house has been drawing americans to realize what could happen, they want of course to see a shutdown averted, so the question now is, is the white house, are those who work so closely with their legislative partners right now, talking to some of these democrats who are considering supporting this 45day extension, and telling them okay, this is going to help avert this possible economic disaster, are they signaling to them whether or not they should do that . Democrats want to read this unfold to understand what they would be supporting here that would essentially possibly avoid this, or keep it very very short. As julie has been pointing, out expertly, nothing really on the hill happens that quickly, this could take a little while if they do want to pass something, or if they want to add amendments to any of it before it would actually be done before the clock strikes midnight tonight, but maybe it would shorten the length of it if they could try to do this in the next couple of, days so the white house very closely paying attention to all of that as is President Biden who remains here at the, white house and we will expect to hear more from white house officials on what they are seeing as this progresses this afternoon. I. Okay monica, about thank you so much for, that extraordinary times for the president s perspective, really telling that mccarthy is violating constitutional guardrails, let alone back in, june as we watch the house, floor we see Hakeem Jeffries there taking to the, podium so we will monitor that as well from the Control Booth for, you but lets go right now to washington congressman adam smith, ranking members lets step out of the aisle give me a are you able to make heads of tails an hour and change you go to go through to make sure this was a cleaner solution. Its very chaotic, and its chaotic because Speaker Mccarthy was trying to appease the maga extremists in his party. He took us right up to the brink of running them dictate the policy, and then apparently this morning he decided he was going to try to do something sensible, and try to keep the government. Open he flung this out, there and hes been spending the last hour and a half trying to figure out what is in that proposal. Thats what were going to be debating run right, now but in the chaos all comes down to the fact that mccarthy has decided to let matt gaetz run the congress. He may have changed his mind recently, and were trying to figure out what that means exactly. Are you worried he would have tried to slip something meredith Making A Presumption if he did not give you enough time all 70 plus pages in detail, you would be voting on something you are unaware of . One of my favorite quotes has never been what you can put down to simple incompetence. Is it possible . I think its more a matter of the fact of the basic incompetence with which he and all of the republicans have run the house since they took over. I think it is far more likely that they are doing this just because they are not very good at their jobs. Now that we have looked, at it it does appear to be a clean c r, the only thing as it does abandon ukraine. This is no small issue, when you look at the way Vladimir Putin is doing to the ukrainian people right now. I think it is important that we help them in their fights, entered appears that Speaker Mccarthy for the moment is abandoning them. Thats not in significant, but other than that, the a bill appears to be that the supplemental is putting forward. And the Continuing Resolution. Is it difficult for democrats right now to consider supporting Speaker Mccarthy because essentially what youre going to have to do, throwing him a life to line, to continue his speakership as opposed to not funding the federal government . Thats a separate, think what were going to decide here in the next hour is do we thats one thing to decide, the second thing will come, is matt gaetz follows through to believe that he wont, if he makes the motion to vacate the chair, then what are we doing . I will tell, you i have a very simple ask, if Speaker Mccarthy gives us a vote on a supplemental for ukraine, i would seriously consider keeping him as speaker. If the choice is between that Kevin Mccarthy sort of half asked running house, or matt gaetz actually running the, hows i choose to have to ask Kevin Mccarthy its not a good choice, ill grant you, that and im hoping what everyone is learning watching this is having the republicans in charge of the house its a disaster. Its a point i want to make, clear youve got a lot of moderates out there like mike lawler who claimed that they are on separate, gates they are empowering him, they are empowering the chaos, that Kevin Mccarthy and the Republican Party has brought to this country. If you vote for them, you are voting for that chaos. There is no such thing as a moderate republican right now. We are stuck in that chaotic world. I appreciate you being there outside of the chamber, i know youll be able to join us as we take a listen to the Hakeem Jeffries right, now lets take a listen to what hes getting applause from the democrats. At some of my colleagues want to do, unleash weapons of war. They are not used to hunt deer, they are used to hunt human beings. And stretch, children so we worked in the bipartisan way. Hey to pass the to Safer Communities act make progress. For the american people. And then we worked on the chips and science act. That will bring domestic manufacturing jobs back home to the United States of america. [applause] as opposed to our jobs moving in the other direction. [applause] and to invest science, technology, engineering, mathematics. To ensure that our young people, have the skills to succeed. In the 21st century. Economy. And our competitive, continue to elevate american exceptionalism. That was done. In a bipartisan way. There were some areas where our republican colleagues refused to do what was right in our view for the american people. Thats why, in some instances, we needed to just act to put people over politics. People over politics. [applause] thats what we did. With the American Rescue plan and inflation reduction act. Our bipartisan track record, continues, we stood up for the men and women who have served this country. And who are exposed to burn pits, or toxic substances, or agent orange. And through the pack act, under the leadership, of Speaker Pelosi and chairman mark takano, we stood up for our veterans to ensure that millions of them would get the health care that they deserve. [applause] and we got the pact act. Over the finish line. [applause] once again, it was bipartisan. In nature. We understood there were great threats to our democracy. Because of what occurred with the former president of the United States. Congress
