. >> this is kevin cramer, a north dakota republican in his first term. he issued a statement saying he severely injured during a yard accident over the weekend. he may have to get his right hand amputated because of this jaur he endured. he immediately had to have surgery after this yard accident. he says he continues to remain in north dakota in case there needs to be additional medical care. he says there's high risk of infection in the possible need for amputation. he goes on to say in a statement that he's in good spirits and he's going to be missing votes and hearings in washington. he does plan to return after the two-week recess that begins a at the entd of this week, but he says he's in good spirits and plans to return and expects to be doing a lot of left-handed fist bump. a lot of humor from the senator even though he entoured this serious injury here. cramer is a conservative republican. someone who is close to the leadership and also close to donald trump. a very affable senator, talkative senator. so a serious injury, a shocking statement th

. >> senator kevin cramer was asked about red flag measures yesterday. his answer seemed to indicate that winning the election in november is more important than efforts at red flag laws. he said, quote, i think we're more interested in red waves than we are in red flags, quite honestly as republicans and we have a good opportunity to do that. what's your reaction? >> from what i understand, senator cornyn presented some polling to his caucus, including senator kremer yesterday, in which he showed that red flag laws are wildly popular all across the country. i think the data he showed suggested they had 85% support. that means they're popular in red states and in blue states. so if republicans are more concerned with winning elections than keeping people safe, and i hope that's not the case, but if they are, they should be very interested in voting for a bill that is going to be very, very popular. red flag laws, stopping abusers from getting guns, locking up gun traffickers, these are things that are as popular as grandma and apple pie. we're going to h

senator kevin cramer telling me earlier today that he viewed this process as moving too fast, that it's not going through the normal committee process, regular order. meanwhile, democrats obviously arguing this issue is urgent, that they need to take steps immediately, and sas soon as possible. >> there was a republican lunch today where much of the discussion was around the red flag provision in the bill. the bill would provide incentives for states to pass red flag laws. is this provision going to trip up other republicans? preventing them from following mcconnell's lead. >> yeah, look, right now, there are ten republicans who support the framework, which included incentives for states to pass these red flag laws, but the hope and goal of senator john cornyn, the leading republican, was to attract more republican support once this framework was out. and i'm told from multiple republican members in this lunch that they had a lot of discussion around red flag laws, whether or not it would interrupt due process for gun owners across the country. senator kremer again told me that at the e

let's look at republican senator kevin cramer talking about what he is calling the president's missteps when it comes to combating inflation. sen. cramer: first thing he could do is lift regulatory craziness. his first day in office he signed several regulations and executive orders, undid the good orders trump put in place. he also said he inherited a very bad economy, that it was static. he inherited a robust economy built on a strong foundation, lower regulations, lower taxes. the reason we were able to come back so quickly after covid was because of the foundation built by the trump administration and republicans in congress prior to the pandemic. he doubled down on dumb, passed the american rescue plan, he increased regulations, stopped oil development largely in the united states or stop it where it was, and worse than all of that, all of these plus many more send bad signals to investors in the marketplace. while he talks about wanting to incentivize energy development, he wants to have taxes for clean energy, electric vehicles, all the while the world is calling for more oil and
