Do you have other Republicans who will support that legislation?

The president just announced a stake in Trilogy Metals now.

This is the fourth company, by my count, with a true government equity stake.

There's also the golden share when it comes to U.S.

Steel.

Is there any position in which you would support these moves?

Is MP Materials, for instance, an exemption in the name of national security?

Are we going down the wrong road here?

You've called this a step towards socialism.

Now that we have more companies, are we ever closer?

Duly noted.

When you think about what we're discussing here, though, socialism with regard to government stakes in publicly traded companies, in the case of Intel, you've got Trilogy Metals now.

We can talk about TikTok and the integrity of Congress authoritarianism when it comes to extra digital killings off Venezuela.

We've all done this in just 10 minutes, Senator.

So is Donald Trump an autocrat?

You think federal workers should get back pay when this ends?

Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky talking with us earlier today.

He remains a no vote on this day seven of the government shutdown.

You certainly ask interesting questions.

So, Congressman, I hear you on the future of a potential clean CR, but do you see any room for negotiations here when it does come to those expiring Obamacare tax credits?
