moments ago, the house cleared the way for a final vote on foreign aid bills for ukraine, israel and taiwan. it comes as speaker johnson is facing threats to remove him as speaker. joining us, two people who worked for house speakers, brendan buck, he is an msnbc contributor. >> i think republicans, including in the freedom caucus, don't see a lot of political value going through the disaster that happened on the floor last year when we were stuck and couldn't do anything for three weeks. there's a small minority of the house who doesn't seem to get the bad politics, doesn't get that they don't gain anything from changing the speaker and seem intent on forcing this issue. i think they are going to lose this fight and it could be good for the house if democrats work with the overwhelming number of republicans to defeat the motion to vacate and take away this weapon from the freedom caucus where we don't have to worry about them so much. i don't know how long that dynamic will last. but in the short-term, i think it would be good for governance in the house. >> how would that happen? what wou

you have aid for taiwan in this, the third geography. and we have ourselves. we simply don't produce enough in the way of arms and certainly ammunition. one of the things i'm hoping comes out of this, beyond the immediate, it'll be arbitrary. we'll send some to israel, some to ukraine, won't be enough for either but it'll be better than what we've got now. one of the things we actually need is a serious conversation in this country about our ability to produce sufficient arms. we're moving into an incredibly dangerous world. look at the israelis, the iranians, the use of drones, the use of the new generation of missiles and so forth. we have got to, in some ways, catch up to the changing technology and build the industrial base to produce adequate stuff. we are not there. it'd be nice to put aside the politics once we get through this bill over the weekend and have a serious conversation about our ability to produce enough. >> you know, richard just uttered words that seem so, like, last century, serious conversation. we haven't seen serious conversations in t

supporting our national security and doing the right thing with regard to assistance to ukraine and to taiwan and to israel. i think -- i think this could really change the tone of what's been going on in the house of representatives. i'm glad to hear the speaker speak to a sense of history because, frankly, that's what's because frankly, that's what's important to put nation ahead of party. >> you still have a lot of contacts, what are you hearing? what's the level of nervousness among many of our allies about what they see right now? >> there's been a tremendous amount of nervousness. all of the people i talk to abroad basically are concerned about whether or not the united states will stand by its word and its credibility. so i think president biden is right to urge the congress to pass this package. i think the speaker is right to put this package to a vote. and i think there's a good chance that by the end of the week, the speaker can look back and not only because we created a strong bipartisan coalition to help govern this country, which is important, but also because we have done the
