Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs, and welcome to The Great America Show. Great to have you with us
00:00:04.840 today. Our guest today is the man who led the 20 reformers of the 118th Congress, and we hope all
00:00:11.920 Congresses in the years ahead. Those reforms include giving our representatives the opportunity
00:00:17.840 to amend legislation, time to read legislation before it comes up for a vote. How about that?
00:00:24.600 And the motion to vacate, that is to call for a vote of no confidence in the Speaker.
00:00:28.840 Greater representation on committees for the Freedom Caucus members, just some of the reforms
00:00:34.480 won in the fight for Speaker that ended last Friday night. Our guest is Congressman Andy Biggs of
00:00:40.200 Arizona. He's a former chairman of the Freedom Caucus. He serves in both the House oversight
00:00:45.160 and judiciary committees, and he led the fight last week to create greater accountability,
00:00:51.380 transparency, and better representation in Congress. It was a grueling debate, and in the end,
00:00:57.520 the Republic and the American people won out, largely because a handful of representatives
00:01:03.420 led by Biggs persevered and stood up against the status quo. Congratulations, Congressman,
00:01:10.300 and after that hard-fought negotiation, how are you feeling?
00:01:14.160 Thank you, Lou. That's very kind. I feel optimistic, but I temper my optimism, but I'm optimistic. By the way,
00:01:26.100 I'll just tell you that the 20 people were great, worked hard, held on, and just the pressure that was
00:01:37.760 levied on some of those people was absolutely, you know, irrationally so. But, you know, we feel and hope
00:01:47.660 that we got something done that will be meaningful and lasting.
00:01:50.640 Well, I have to say, as we sit here right now, I think what you accomplished was extraordinary.
00:01:57.520 I don't think there is any way in which what you did achieve, you and the 20 did, it's reforming Congress.
00:02:09.160 It's opened up the processes of Congress. I think most people, had it not been for you and your band of
00:02:17.800 Freedom Caucus members, they wouldn't know that our congressmen weren't voting on every bill,
00:02:24.700 you know, and reading every bill, and being involved in every piece of legislation, but rather treated like
00:02:32.620 rubber stamps by the membership, primarily RINO leadership, primarily Marxist-DEM leadership.
00:02:41.260 That's a great achievement in and of itself.
00:02:44.460 Yeah, Lou, I'm not going to kid anybody. If I would have believed that we could get that,
00:02:52.440 I would have been totally sanguine. But, you know, it's just, you start thinking about it,
00:02:59.980 I don't think people understood exactly what you're saying. I did not know before I came to Congress
00:03:04.800 that members of Congress don't take a roll call vote on every bill. Had no idea. And we tried six
00:03:12.240 years ago to make a change. And we came close within probably 15 votes or so, but we couldn't make the
00:03:18.740 change. And you start looking and you say, well, well, how come they have these massive 4,000 page
00:03:26.360 bills, and then they don't give you time to read it? Well, that's because they don't want you to read
00:03:29.980 it. And it's because they're giving Christmas trees out to everybody, ornaments on every Christmas tree.
00:03:35.640 So the point is, what your wealth is well taken. I'm hopeful that that this is going to make a
00:03:42.320 significant, long-lasting change in Congress. And now it's up to us to, as members of Congress,
00:03:49.740 to keep pushing to enforce it and make sure those rules remain in place and are, you know,
00:03:57.700 enforced. Because if they're not enforced, Lou, then it was for naught.
00:04:01.660 Right. And of course, enforcement here requires the leadership of Kevin McCarthy,
00:04:07.220 the Speaker of the 118th Congress. I have to say, he's off to a very good beginning. And I think
00:04:15.780 Kevin McCarthy, I'll just tell you straight out, Congressman Biggs, I think he owes the opportunity
00:04:21.240 to succeed at an unprecedented level directly to you and the Freedom Caucus 20. Your reaction?
00:04:30.060 Well, I appreciate that. And, you know, I kind of indicated to him, you know, we want you to succeed.
00:04:36.560 We want you to succeed. So go out and do it. And he's done some good things, Lou. I mean,
00:04:41.580 he's already talked about he's going to take off Schiff. He's going to take off Ilhan Omar. He's
00:04:46.720 going to take off Swalwell off their committees and change him to different committees. That's
00:04:51.280 appropriate. That's necessary. We've already run the IRS bill. We've got some other bills that are
00:04:58.940 going to be coming through the rest of this week that are consistent with what we think is a good,
00:05:04.160 solid Republican agenda. He's, you know, we've got a Freedom Caucus guy who's now the chair of the
00:05:10.920 Homeland Security, a Freedom Caucus guy who's chair of judiciary. And we're seeing a more proportional
00:05:17.660 representation of the more conservative wing of the conference. And I believe, I believe that he is
00:05:24.900 going to, he's got a shot to really be a speaker that has had a conversion and, and live that live by
00:05:35.660 this new faith, which would be transparency, openness, a more conservative, more constitutionally
00:05:44.280 oriented Congress. I believe that that can happen. I'm, I'm, I'm in on it. I'm in on it, Lou.
00:05:49.520 Well, good, because you created that opportunity. Uh, and I know there's that you wanted more and
00:05:56.400 I'm sure Kevin McCarthy wanted to give up less, but that is this, that is the notion of a grand
00:06:02.120 bargain. Uh, when everybody gets exactly what they wanted, something's askew, uh, because otherwise
00:06:08.320 there wouldn't have been a conflict to begin with. I I'm, I'm just, uh, I'm, I'm not a, in any way,
00:06:14.460 a Pollyanna, uh, or a cynic, but I am in point of fact, a skeptic and I bring critical judgment to,
00:06:21.140 to most of my opinions. I'm not perfect in that regard as, as, uh, as you would well know,
00:06:26.560 but I really believe this, uh, represents an immense opportunity for the American people,
00:06:31.960 for the Republic. And frankly, if it hadn't happened the way it did, and you had gone to that
00:06:37.600 final day of the week, uh, almost to the, to the point of, uh, passing midnight to really resolve
00:06:45.160 this. Uh, what was it around? It was just after midnight, I guess it was, uh, when you guys came
00:06:52.120 to the determination, you could make a deal. Uh, I, I just think that it was so important to go the
00:06:57.960 full distance. Uh, and you, and I know every day you were under pressure to wrap it up. Uh, so good
00:07:04.300 on you for not doing so. Uh, were you ever tempted to do that? Uh, I can say that I was not, um,
00:07:13.680 and, and try to instill that in my, my colleagues, but, but the reality of it, Lou is a lot of people
00:07:19.920 were telling me, this is messy, Andy, this is embarrassing. You're a clown and all this stuff.
00:07:24.640 And this is coming from donors and, and some, some high profile people. And, uh, and, but the,
00:07:31.340 you know, Lou, uh, we knew that if you want to make change that, that has some kind of lasting
00:07:38.340 significance, you cannot, the only way you would get it is to hold out and actually demonstrate
00:07:45.740 the will to hold out because, because we, by the way, we gave most of these, this rules package to
00:07:53.940 Mr. McCarthy last July, but he wasn't interested because he thought he was going to have a red wave.
00:07:59.280 You know, and until, until you demonstrate that you can, you can deny somebody and you have the will
00:08:07.160 to do it, even at the point of perhaps risking political annihilation of yourself, you cannot
00:08:16.160 accomplish the great thing. Well, there's an old saying that I like, uh, as you know, I was born in
00:08:22.600 Texas and, uh, grew up out West. So this was a saying that always, uh, you know, I, I thought of
00:08:29.540 as a young fellow growing up, uh, there are some fights just worth having. And this was a fight worth
00:08:35.360 having no matter the outcome. This is a fight that had to be. And because of your integrity, uh, your
00:08:42.800 values and your courage, this happened. And that is something no one will ever be able to deny you.
00:08:48.980 It is a hallmark, uh, of, uh, your courage, uh, in the annals of congressional history, uh, yours and
00:08:57.280 the 20, uh, freedom caucus, uh, reformers. So I, I just want to say that out loud for everybody to
00:09:05.020 hear how important this man and what he did is to all of us. Uh, now I want to know,
00:09:12.200 was there more you wanted that you thought was within your grasp that just, you just didn't quite
00:09:19.160 get. Um, you know, it was fluid, but I will just tell you that there's some things that I think
00:09:26.940 in the deal itself or in the rules package that we just voted on yesterday that I wished would have
00:09:32.320 been just a little bit, uh, firmer. So for instance, the, the germaneness, now this is probably getting
00:09:37.800 into the weeds for, for folks who a little bit, but germaneness, I thought has a pretty good,
00:09:43.400 it has a point of order. It has probably as good of a, of a mechanism of accountability as you could
00:09:49.480 get. But the, but the single subject rule is, is too, too weak. I mean, it's a step in the right
00:09:56.720 direction, but it doesn't have that same triggering mechanism of responsibility and accountability that
00:10:02.520 the germaneness rule has. Now, why is that important? Because those two, those two types,
00:10:08.760 uh, those two rules in and of themselves, there's what gives you protection so that when you go down
00:10:12.920 and you think you're going to vote on a, um, let's say a, uh, to build a freeway or freeway funding
00:10:20.180 and someone throws in $30 billion to go to Ukraine, um, those two bill, those two rules will
00:10:26.440 prevent that from happening. And so I w I wanted a little bit tighter language. And I know I'm
00:10:32.160 getting into the weeds here, but, but, you know, stuff like that, uh, really, uh, really can make
00:10:37.620 a difference. But, but by and large, uh, the, the notion of, of the appropriations process,
00:10:44.720 moving, setting the baseline back a couple of years, giving us a chance to, um, uh, you know,
00:10:51.640 have an open debate on the, on things to read the bills. I would have liked a longer period of time
00:10:56.800 to read the bills. Those are little bitty things, you know, and my own thing, Lewis is,
00:11:01.840 um, I, I doubted whether Kevin McCarthy was the guy who should be the speaker of the house.
00:11:07.640 I got a whole list of, of reasons why, but he, it was obvious to us that he was going to get the
00:11:15.540 votes at the end. And so at that point, um, it was time to just say, okay, uh, you got the votes
00:11:23.320 and, and these rules are in place and there's going to be some insight, exciting things happen.
00:11:29.040 And, uh, we wish you well, it's a clean slate for us. You're starting over anew. Let's see if you
00:11:37.380 can, uh, if you, if your conversion is a real long lasting conversion and we pray that it is.
00:11:43.340 Well, the, the motion to vacate, uh, is helpful to assuring accountability in that regard, uh, again,
00:11:50.740 to the credit, uh, your credit and that of the 20, uh, I, I, I, it seemed at various points that it
00:11:59.000 was, uh, that the six of you, there were six of you, it seemed to me who were the core of it all.
00:12:05.020 Uh, am I right about that? Well, there were, there were six of us hanging on there at the end.
00:12:13.360 Um, and, and, and so it became kind of an interesting dynamic there, uh, as you, as you
00:12:21.220 get to that, but I would say that everybody played their role. I mean, so, uh, I tip my hat to like a
00:12:26.100 Dan Bishop and a Chip Roy and Scott Perry, who, who, um, said, well, let's see what else we can get,
00:12:32.020 uh, negotiation wise. So they negotiated a lot of these things, uh, and, and worked on the
00:12:39.580 specific language and then some outside side agreements that, that some people say they're
00:12:44.640 an addendum. They're not an addendum to the rules at all. It's, it's just how you, uh, internally in
00:12:50.040 the house, uh, on the Republican conference, what are you going to do? So, so I tip my hat to all of
00:12:55.620 those people and, and, and just, I really tip my hat to, to, uh, Matt Gates, Lauren Boebert,
00:13:00.900 Matt Rosendale, Eli Crane, what an, what an amazing freshman and Bob Good, who just really,
00:13:07.640 um, held the line and said, and, and we could deny it. We could deny it. And then, and then when,
00:13:16.480 when things started happening and, and he had the votes or we knew he'd have the votes on Monday,
00:13:20.440 it was like, okay, now, now let's finish this thing off. And, and we did. And I'm grateful
00:13:26.340 they, they were great. They were great to work with. Watching the pressure that Matt,
00:13:31.140 uh, Gates and Lauren Boebert were in and my hats off to all of you. Uh, but to, at one point you
00:13:38.400 walked over, uh, and, and stood in front of them and I couldn't tell if you were trying to protect
00:13:43.960 them or if you had something to say, or if you were counseling, what, what was, uh, what were you
00:13:50.920 doing at that moment, that dramatic moment in the, in the proceedings? Well, I mean, what was
00:13:59.300 happening is, is you saw that and there's, there's dozens of people, um, roaring at them and I, and I
00:14:06.160 was trying to protect them. That's what I was trying to do, get in the way and try to, to, to push these
00:14:11.440 people back a little bit. And, um, and, but, you know, I didn't want any more, I didn't want physical,
00:14:18.140 but I also, you know, some of these people were saying outrageous things and I'm not trying to
00:14:23.360 live this up. I mean, it's time for us to, to, to move on and, and try to heal this thing. But I mean,
00:14:28.060 I was just trying to, trying to ameliorate and protect my friends who had been so faithful.
00:14:34.380 Yeah. And, and, and Lauren, Lauren Boebert and, and Matt Gaetz, uh, they were pivotal at the end and
00:14:43.360 Matt Gaetz, uh, rushing up, uh, into the well and changing his, uh, vote, uh, on, uh, the motion to
00:14:51.400 adjourn, uh, that, that set it, uh, set it all off for conclusion. All of you voting, uh, present,
00:14:59.720 which gave McCarthy the opportunity to win the majority. Uh, did, did president Trump,
00:15:05.640 uh, at any point talk with you? Did you talk with him? Um, he did place a call to me, um,
00:15:13.760 Friday evening, Friday evening, actually, uh, during the recess time, I was actually walking out of my,
00:15:20.020 my house to drive down here to the Capitol when he called and we, we talked for about 20 minutes.
00:15:24.860 And, and were you, you and he simpatico, uh, in what should be done and how it should go?
00:15:33.840 Well, Lou, I don't want to talk about a personal conversation I had with,
00:15:37.360 with the former president Trump. Um, just, I'll just let you know that I expressed my affection
00:15:43.260 toward him and he expressed his affection toward me as our conversation wrapped, but, um,
00:15:48.860 that's it. And that's all I really want to want to say about that private conversation.
00:15:53.700 Well, I understand that. Uh, I've had a few conversations with president Trump myself and
00:15:58.860 when they end that way, that's always a positive sign. Uh, and it is, uh, it's, uh, it's instructive
00:16:06.860 in and of itself. I want to turn to, if I may, you're, because you're suggesting this. And as you
00:16:13.440 say, and I agree with you wholeheartedly, it's why I am fully, uh, supportive of speaker, uh,
00:16:21.780 McCarthy, because it is, as you said, a time for healing, but I'd like to understand, uh,
00:16:27.220 if I can, if McCarthy were to get wobbly, uh, in anything that in your judgment or that of your,
00:16:34.760 your, your colleagues, do you believe the motion to vacate is firm enough? Is it what you wanted?
00:16:41.000 Well, I was never, okay. So first I'll begin by saying, I don't think he's going to get wobbly.
00:16:48.080 I don't, I think he's going to be pretty solid and, and, and I think we're going to help him
00:16:53.280 remain solid. You know, we, we kind of wrap our arms around him and say, let's, let's, let's get
00:16:58.680 the job done and let's do it, um, and go forward. We're in the unlikely case. I, I personally have
00:17:07.480 never been a big believer that the motion to vacate, um, was going to be, uh, you know, the,
00:17:15.040 the panacea, uh, and, uh, you know, I think, but it is helpful. I think it's probably helpful,
00:17:21.500 but, but I mean, if, if you, if you couldn't take him out to begin with, it'd be highly unlikely
00:17:28.820 unless he did something really, really unusual, um, that, that, that would ever be triggered. And,
00:17:36.580 and I mean, the bottom line is, I think more, Lou, quite frankly, in my opinion,
00:17:41.540 more effectively are those rules that get into place on appropriations, on debate,
00:17:46.500 on the single subject, on the germaneness, all of those, you know, those are actually going to
00:17:52.720 constrain, um, any leader. We, we said, look, whether it's you, Kevin, Mr. McCarthy or anybody
00:17:58.120 else, Speaker McCarthy, anybody else, we, we want anybody to be tied to these rules. Um, it was,
00:18:04.160 if it was my favorite candidate, if it was me, I should be tied to those same rules,
00:18:08.160 actually the house. So the house could actually operate and function. So, yeah, I think, I think
00:18:14.420 that motion to vacate is important. I think it's, it's, it's solid, but some of my colleagues really
00:18:20.480 put the hope in that. And, and I'm, I'm a little less sanguine about, about, um, uh, emotion to vacate
00:18:29.520 being, being, being end all. But now I would say this, I think you're right. It's helpful. It is
00:18:34.260 helpful. It's helpful. And I, I'm not among those who thought, by the way, I'm not a person who thinks
00:18:39.440 any of this is a panacea because, uh, in my experience, uh, as a journalist and an opinion
00:18:46.800 host, uh, over many, many decades now, if you don't, if you do not have an assemblage of people who
00:18:54.660 have the, the heart, the courage, the values, uh, and the integrity, uh, there is no law, there is no
00:19:01.840 rule on earth that can, uh, can prevent, uh, can prevent evil. I'll put it that way. Uh, and, uh, but it
00:19:11.620 certainly does, uh, provide a guidepost for everyone. I'd like to turn to a couple of things very quickly
00:19:17.400 here, if I may, Congressman, uh, you tweeted out about, uh, well, we, we, we spoke here initially,
00:19:22.660 you talked about, uh, uh, green, uh, taking over Homeland Security, uh, the former, uh, special
00:19:31.400 forces, uh, doctor, uh, representative from Tennessee, taking over Homeland Security. Dan Crenshaw
00:19:38.620 is out. Let me begin by saying to you, Dan Crenshaw moving off that committee is that losing that
00:19:46.180 chairmanship is a wonderful thing. I think the man is, uh, he is John McCain, uh, personified for
00:19:52.600 the Republican party. He's endeared to the left because he fights the right. Uh, and that is to me
00:19:57.940 not, not, uh, uh, it is not ideal. Uh, I do think that Mark Green will be terrific. Your thoughts.
00:20:05.980 Yeah, I'm very excited for, for Mark. Um, he's, he's a good guy. I tell him all the time. You're a
00:20:16.480 but he's going to be good. And he understands also things like that, that the border security
00:20:21.400 comes under that Homeland Security. And he and I've talked about the border. He's been down to
00:20:26.580 the border with me. I've shown him, I've, uh, you know, so I've shown him a lot of stuff and I'm
00:20:31.680 hopeful that we'll see, uh, not just, um, uh, uh, uh, restoration of prestige for America internationally,
00:20:40.840 but also a strengthening of the American border. Yeah, I, I think you're exactly right. And I,
00:20:47.520 I want to get your sense too, of, you know, two, uh, two great Americans. And that is of course,
00:20:53.920 Jim Jordan and, uh, uh, and James Comer, uh, Comer leading oversight and, uh, Jordan leading
00:21:02.380 judiciary and the new church to always, it's being styled subcommittee, uh, going after the
00:21:08.760 investigators, if you will, who have, who are creating more crimes than those they are
00:21:12.900 investigating. Uh, your thoughts about how strong their role is, how well positioned they
00:21:18.320 are, uh, to get done the people's business. Well, they're both very capable, uh, not just
00:21:25.820 capable, they're talented and skilled. Um, and I, I mean, I've been talking to both of
00:21:31.580 them for months. Um, we've sent, uh, you know, preservation letters there. They're, they're
00:21:36.760 ready to get up and rolling and, and do this. I, I believe, and, and one of the things I was
00:21:42.940 doing between, uh, meetings and whatnot today is, is writing down, uh, some of the, some
00:21:49.380 of the examples of, of abuse of the, of the federal police state against Americans over
00:21:58.100 the last six years and, and beyond actually longer than that. These guys know this, they
00:22:04.540 know it very well. Um, and they're, you know, they're chomping at the bit to get going, but
00:22:10.740 they've already been organizing, uh, our committees, uh, to be ready to, to, to go. And I'm, I think
00:22:17.700 it's going to be off awfully strong and it's going to be an awesome presentation. And we
00:22:23.660 got to get to the bottom of this Lou, because as you know, we're, we're, we're talking dire
00:22:28.420 straits what's happening in this country today. And to that point, Congressman, the federal
00:22:34.940 government is rife with political corruption and corruption of all sorts, but the deep state,
00:22:42.000 uh, is a, is now aligned with the, the Marxist Dems who control the Democrat party, this white
00:22:49.140 house, and they mean to destroy this nation. I don't believe anyone in your conference should
00:22:55.140 doubt that truth. Uh, at this point, do you believe, well, let me ask you this way. What do you
00:23:03.020 believe will be required on the part of the Congress? And I'm putting a lot on the Congress
00:23:07.480 because you're the only, uh, countervailing influence to this, this madness of a, an administrative
00:23:14.880 regime, uh, and, uh, the, and the U S Senate. Well, I think it's, what do you think it's going
00:23:22.420 to take? Well, we're going to have to fight and we're going to have to use every procedural
00:23:26.720 tool. And, and I know that some people thought that was a clown show last week, but I will tell
00:23:30.880 you one thing that I think that besides the rules and everything else effectively, that effective,
00:23:37.740 uh, reward is the emotional boost. I think to Americans who finally saw people standing up to
00:23:46.640 fight against the status quo. And we have got to do stuff like that on a regular basis, use the
00:23:53.060 procedural tools that we have to actually step up and fight. Um, whether it's the Senate or the,
00:24:02.780 or the white house, we have to use the tools that are left. I mean, we got emasculated with,
00:24:08.660 with the, uh, the loss of the, of the budgetary tools when, when the, uh, uh, omnibus went through.
00:24:16.200 So we have got to stand up and use those tools, procedural tools and do them courageously.
00:24:21.940 And even though the pressure may be relentless to have the will, that's what it takes. It takes
00:24:28.340 the will and the leadership to stand up and say, no more, no more. And we're going to stop you.
00:24:34.000 And it would, you can do all, whatever you want. You can do performance art, perform, you know,
00:24:39.320 just perform. But if you're not serious and don't have the will, uh, and desire and courage to do
00:24:47.140 it, then you'll lose every time. Yeah. I hope everyone, uh, in every Republican in the conference
00:24:53.800 understands that this is a time, as you say, to perform. Uh, it is a time not only to fight,
00:24:58.500 it is a time to win. Uh, it is not only a time to, uh, uh, make the American people understand
00:25:06.220 the commitment to the values that, uh, that you all share, but it is also time, uh, to make sure
00:25:13.400 that everyone's at work. Uh, I can't remember who it was in the midst of the debate talking about,
00:25:18.440 uh, we can take four days to have this, uh, debate over the, the rules. Uh, but we,
00:25:26.740 people don't understand. We, we weren't working for six months of 2022. That has to stop too.
00:25:33.220 There has to be engagement. This is not a sinecure that the American people sent everyone to Congress
00:25:38.820 for. This is a job for the Republican party. They've got to be out. They've got to outsmart
00:25:43.800 the Democrats. They've got to outwork them. And I think that we saw that energy to do just that
00:25:50.300 last week. Thanks to you and your colleagues for standing up and standing tall and firm.
00:25:57.900 We appreciate it so much, Congressman. We always, as you know, give our guests the last word
00:26:02.400 your concluding thoughts, if you would, sir. Well, thank you, Lou. And I, and I would just
00:26:06.600 conclude by saying I'm hopeful, uh, you know, and I'm, I, I'm really believe we can get some
00:26:12.440 good things done, but I also want to just take a moment to tip my hat to you for your faithfulness,
00:26:17.380 your, your adherence to principle and patriotism. Uh, you're, you've been there through sunshine and
00:26:24.820 rain, and, uh, I really appreciate that. And I just want to tip my hat to you, Lou.
00:26:28.360 Well, you're very kind. And I thank you for those kind words. I appreciate it. Uh, Congressman,
00:26:33.660 thanks for taking time. I know you're just as busy as you can possibly be. We thank you for your time
00:26:38.840 and, uh, all that you're doing for this great country of ours. Congressman Andy Biggs, a true,
00:26:44.560 true, uh, hero, uh, in this, uh, in this hour, uh, when we desperately need heroes. Thanks so much.
00:26:52.700 God bless you. Thank you. God bless you too. Congressman Andy Biggs. Thanks everybody for
00:26:58.000 being with us. And here tomorrow, another great American Congressman James Comer, chairman of the
00:27:03.660 powerful house oversight committee, a committee that has a number of demanding challenges before it.
00:27:10.660 And among those challenges, investigating president Joe Biden and the accusations of rampant political
00:27:17.300 corruption throughout the federal government. That's here tomorrow. Please join us until then.
00:27:22.960 Thank you. God bless you. And God bless America.
