President Trump's Midterm WARNING; Republicans Hold On To ONE Seat Majority | Ep 623

President Trump spoke to House Republicans at the Kennedy Center yesterday. He urged Republicans to figure out a healthcare system that sends money to the people instead of the insurance companies. The president also told Republicans to pass the SAVE Act before it's too late. Requiring voter ID to ensure only US citizens are voting is essential to the integrity of our elections and any state that isn't requiring an ID is cheating. The House appropriations committee is passing a minibus before the January 30th deadline. The three-bill package reflects a commitment to fiscal responsibility, public safety, and national security while delivering full-year funding that takes partisan shutdown leverage off the table. Operation Absolute Resolve was flawlessly executed without the loss of a single U.S. life. This incredibly intricate mission was a testament to the leadership of General Dan Caine and Secretary Hegseth. It was also a message to the rest of the world, especially Mexico and China to stop poisoning our country and stealing the lives of our children with deadly drugs. The communist president of Cuba Miguel Díaz-Canel says that Cubans are ready to shed blood, and even sacrifice their lives, for Venezuela. Is President Trump's action in the Caribbean not over yet? Congressman Jake Ellzey is here to unpack it all. Featuring; Rep.

Congress holds the power of the purse. The United States Government is the largest business in the world, but to conduct business - and national security - Congress has to approve the funds and the money. Representative Jake Ellzey is now a 3-term Congressman representing Texas's 6th District. He's a Naval Academy graduate, a helicopter and fighter pilot, and a member of the House Appropriations Committee, where his decisions determine what the government funds and what it doesn't. He's also the co-chair of the bipartisan military Veterans alliance, the For Country Caucus. With the American government changing at lightning pace, Fran Racioppi asked the Congressman how the Appropriations Committee is prioritizing funding, what that means for national defense, rooting out fraud, waste and abuse; and if there's ever a way for America to balance the budget and stop overspending. Representative Ellzey also shares why we need to clearly define America's next battlefield, funding military readiness and innovation to combat both nation-state adversaries and terror groups, and the critical role he sees our Special Operations Forces playing in the grey war the United States is now in. Plus he shares his leadership lessons from the cockpit and the deck of the USS Ronald Reagan to the halls of Congress.Watch, listen or read our conversation from Congressman Ellzey's office.

Texas state Rep. Jake Ellzey will win the special election runoff in Texas' 6th Congressional District, CNN projects. The Republican overcame former President Donald Trump's endorsement of his opponent, Republican Susan Wright, to claim victory. Wright is the widow of the late Rep. Ron Wright, who had cancer and died in February after contracting Covid-19. Despite not having Trump's support, Ellzey was backed by some major Texas Republicans, including former Gov. Rick Perry and Rep. Dan Crenshaw, and was able to raise about a million dollars more than Susan Wright. The former Navy fighter pilot also actively sought the support of Trump's supporters. He released a video titled "Trump Supporters Love Jake Ellzey" and attended Trump's and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's border visit last month.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy
