Andy Barr, (R-KY), and Rep. Scott Perry, (R-PA). However, both Republicans disarmed him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fnmMv geuMB alqtB wqIGQ\">Stephanopoulos first tried to corner <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/ThisWeek\/video\/1-1-rep-scott-perry-96294861\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Perry<\/a> On the notion that the United States would default upon its debts without increasing the debt limit, and that President Joe Biden was not willing to negotiate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fnmMv geuMB alqtB wqIGQ\">\u201cWe can\u2019t just keep doing the same thing under the same conditions with the same management and expect different outcomes,\u201d Perry responded. \u201cThe American people are sick and tired of this endless debt increasing. While I\u2019ve been in Congress, George, the debt has increased double. It\u2019s gone from about $15 trillion to $31.5 trillion. Where is the end of it? And there\u2019s been no mechanism in sight to rein that in. At least we have a mechanism now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know why President Biden says he\u2019s not going to negotiate,\u201d Perry spoke highly of Biden. \u201cSaying you\u2019re not going to negotiate, I think, is an untenable and unacceptable position for almost every single American no matter if you\u2019re on the left, right, or in the center.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/ThisWeek\/video\/1-1-rep-andy-barr-96294806\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barr<\/a> later in the program, Stephanopoulos claimed that the motion to vacate the Speaker, along with putting Freedom Caucus members on the Rules Committee, would undermine the Speaker\u2019s authority.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fnmMv geuMB alqtB wqIGQ\">Barr reprimanded him again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fnmMv geuMB alqtB wqIGQ\">\u201cWell, let\u2019s be clear, George, remember, this motion to vacate was only altered by Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi,\u201d Barr. \u201cWe\u2019re just going back to the pre-Pelosi rule that was in place since 1910. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s an issue at all in terms of creating chaos. I think it\u2019s what the House has had every term before Pelosi came into power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Barr also said that putting Freedom Caucus member on committees would strengthen both the legislation and party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf there are issues, if there\u2019s a difference of opinion, you want those differences of opinion to be aired in committee on the front end, because you don\u2019t want those difficulties when the bill comes out of committee on the House floor. Let\u2019s have the opportunity to have an open amendment process in committee so that you forge that consensus at the beginning of the legislative process, so that the bills that are brought to House floor actually have a meaningful chance of passing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABC News\u2019s George Stephanopoulos predicted two years of chaos during Kevin McCarthy\u2019s House speakership, but his Republican guests weren\u2019t having it.
