Rep. Waltz: Israel War Makes A Speedy Speaker Vote Absolutely Critical

Shock waves spread across the globe this weekend after Hamas militants led a surprise attack on Israel that has led to devastating killings, abductions, and injuries. On Sunday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken pledged the U.S.'s "full support" to Israel as they continue battling what many people, including Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, believe could likely become a "long and difficult war." Meanwhile, those on Capitol Hill are recovering from the week after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was ousted from his role -- while the government remains in danger of shutting down until members of Congress reach a consensus on next year's spending bills. In the middle of domestic and international chaos, Congressman Mike Waltz joins the Rundown to discuss why he's confident Iran is behind the attack on Israel and how the planned invasion represents a 'massive intelligence failure.' He also shares who he's supporting to be the next House speaker and his thoughts on Ukraine funding and securing the southern border. The September jobs report showed the U.S. added 336,000 jobs, greatly surpassing economists' projections for growth as unemployment numbers remained level. With this red-hot labor market, experts predict the Fed is likely to raise interest rates soon. Co-anchor of "The Big Money Show" on FOX Business, Jackie DeAngelis, joins the Rundown to explain why a strong labor market is the opposite of what the Fed wants to see, the negative consequences of President Biden's economic policies, and a concerning figure in the jobs report that historically signals a coming recession. Plus, commentary by former Congressman Jason Chaffetz, host of the Jason in the House podcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
