1
Let's bring in Texas Republican Congressman Chip Roy,
2
a member of the House Budget Committee.
3
Sir, thank you so much for giving us your time on this Memorial Day weekend,
4
and happy Memorial Day weekend to you.
5
Good afternoon, Molly.
6
Chad Pergram laid it out pretty nicely for us there.
7
What's hanging in the balance here is this funding for Border Patrol and ICE,
8
and one of your colleagues said they need a factory reset in the Senate.
9
Your thoughts on this as you're watching this?
10
Well, as someone who's on the campaign trail across the state of Texas running for attorney general,
11
I know where the people are.
12
And in fact, I flew back to D.C.
13
Thursday to vote on reconciliation and never got the chance to because the Senate didn't get its job done.
14
Let's take this in order.
15
The Senate is not doing what it's supposed to do.
16
I'm the lead author of the Save America Act, as you probably know.
17
It's been stalled in the Senate now for five
18
or six months with no real strategy or plan to move it other than just offering excuses.
19
Now we've had the reconciliation package necessary to fund ICE
20
and Border Patrol because Democrats refused to fund it in the normal appropriations process.
21
And now it's hit a wall,
22
allegedly because of some concerns raised by Mitch McConnell
23
and a few others over this fund
24
that was created to try to make people whole when they had the government weaponized against them.
25
Now on that, I side with the administration.
26
If the Congress has some concern that it might be misused, then fine.
27
Pass some parameters around it if you want to,
28
to say that it can't be used for somebody who assaulted a police officer or something on January 6th.
29
But when you have January Sixers who were stuck in jail,
30
who were targeted with this bogus charge of obstruction,
31
and then they were left to their own devices,
32
having to spend a lot of money for lawyers.
33
When you have people that were persecuted under the FACE Act,
34
including in a hearing I held,
35
a 91-year-old survivor of a gulag who was being targeted by the Biden administration,
36
what is her recourse?
37
What is the recourse of those of us who were targeted under Arctic frost by the federal government?
38
How about FISA abuses on the American people?
39
How can the American people get restitution?
40
This is the issue here.
41
I think the president of ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING BECAUSE THE SENATE REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL.
42
I THINK YOU READ SOME VERY INTERESTING POINTS THERE.
43
IT'S INTERESTING TO HEAR SORT OF THE LITANY OF THINGS YOU'D LIKE TO SEE GET DONE,
44
INCLUDING THE SAVE ACT, FOR INSTANCE.
45
AND ONE OF YOUR COLLEAGUES,
46
SENATOR TED CRUZ, WAS TALKING ABOUT SORT OF,
47
YOU KNOW, THE EMOTION BEHIND ALL OF THIS AND THIS RECENT MEETING WITH TED BLANCH,
48
MEETING WITH LAWMAKERS.
49
TAKE A LISTEN TO HOW SENATOR CRUZ DESCRIBES THINGS.
50
THERE WERE FIREWORKS AT AN EPIC LEVEL.
51
AND I GOT TO SAY,
52
IT'S ONE OF THE ROUGHEST MEETINGS I'VE SEEN IN MY ENTIRE TIME IN THE SENATE.
53
THERE WERE MULTIPLE SENATORS WHO WERE YELLING AT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
54
IT WAS NOT CALM.
55
IT WAS YELLING.
56
JUDGMENT FUND HAD NOT BEEN ANNOUNCED THIS WEEK.
57
WE WOULD BE RIGHT NOW ON THE SENATE FLOOR.
58
WE WOULD BE FUNDING BORDER SECURITY.
59
How do you get your colleagues in the Senate,
60
perhaps some colleagues in the House,
61
to focus on the issues and get things done?
62
Well, this is one of the issues that's kind of driving some of us in the House crazy.
63
We have sent bill after bill after bill to the Senate where it just dies.
64
The supposedly greatest deliberative body on earth is not deliberating.
65
Now, let's be very clear.
66
Part of this is because Democrats refuse to work us on anything at all.
67
The very reason that we're having to work to fund ICE
68
and Border Patrol through reconciliation is because Democrats don't care
69
that our border can be left wide open and the American people endangered.
70
The only reason we have money to fund it right now is because we did it in the big, beautiful bill.
71
But what the Senate ought to do is just put legislation on the floor,
72
debate it, amend it, and pass it.
73
I don't know what they're afraid of.
74
They refuse to put the SAVE Act on the floor to have a full-throated debate
75
and run the clock out so that we can move it back to
76
that and get it to the president and get it passed.
77
They refused in this case to say,
78
look, let's just do the reconciliation package,
79
get it funded, send it over to the House,
80
and then let's be done so we'd have ICE and Border Patrol funded.
81
And on this issue of the fund,
82
I think they don't protest too much.
83
The Senate passed a bill.
84
Remember this last year?
85
The Senate passed a bill that would have given them the ability to sue $500,000 each,
86
but only them, only the Senate,
87
for the Arctic Frost investigation.
88
Now, I was a target of Arctic Frost.
89
I don't think members of Congress or the Senate should get something the average American doesn't get.
90
The average American that was targeted by a weaponized government,
91
FACE Act, people that were protesting abortion under free speech and their religious views,
92
people that have the IRS going after them,
93
the ATF going after them, FISA abuses.
94
What is their recourse?
95
If the Senate wants to put some guardrails on it, go ahead.
96
But stop your complaining and get something done.
97
All right.
98
Congressman Chip Roy from the House side of things,
99
sending a little scolding to the other side.
100
We greatly appreciate you being with us, though.
101
And thank you for raising all of those topics that you feel are so important.
102
We greatly appreciate you being with us.
103
Happy Memorial Day.
104
Happy Memorial Day to you.
105
Happy Memorial Day.
106
Happy Memorial Day.
107
God bless you.
108
Thank you.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
