legislative accomplishment, while the debt ceiling deadline creeps closer every day. and the man who shot a team on his doorstep is expected to be arraigned just minutes from now. he said. he was scared, the prosecutor says race played a role following these major developing stories and many more all coming in right here to cnn news, central. set to happen right now a first of its kind, courtroom short showdown born from the historic arrest and indictment of former president donald trump. the new york city d, a who charged trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records. alvin bragg has a hearing before a federal judge right now to fight a subpoena from congress, house judiciary chairman jim jordan and several other trump allies are demanding that brag, testify and provide documents. they're accusing him of prosecutorial

abuse. cnn's sara murray has been tracking all of this for us. sarah what are you anticipating from today's hearing. this hearing is getting underway and what we are going to see is braggs team, arguing that jim jordans does not have the authority to be subpoenaing a former prosecutor as they already have done in his office and that the judge had basically block them from issuing additional subpoenas related to this. you know jordan's trying to investigate the investigation into donald trump that's playing out there. so here's what bragg has had to say about this. he is accused jim jordans of a transparent campaign to intimidate and attack him as well as his office. now jim jordan has not been very fond of brag, either. here's what he's had to say he's called brags prosecution and unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial prosecutorial authority. he's also taking aim at brag for, you know, going to court over this saying, look, this is someone who is trying to block or investigation that we're trying to do in congress. so we're going to see this judge sort of wade through this clash between

state and federal powers and decide does the house judiciary committee have the ability to be issuing the subpoenas and we'll see if we get a ruling from the judge today from the venture if we have to wait a few days to hear what he decides major question, not just for bragg himself, but his employees and his former employees as well. sara murray, thank you so much for that. brianna today, president biden is visiting a union training facility in maryland, where he's about to give a speech on his economic agenda. the president is expected to blast house republicans, especially those that he calls maga republicans over their demands to cut spending in exchange for a debt limit. increase attacking the gop s plan is quote the same old trickle down, dressed up in maga clothing only worse. cnn's phil mattingly is at the white house for us, phil. what are we expecting to hear from the present? it in. brianna you like myself are a long time veteran of these fights on capitol hill, and when you've been through these before, you know, there's kind of a rhythm a process and as part of those process was

part of that process. there are moments critical moments that kind of lay the groundwork for what is going to happen next. today is one of those moments. i think this split screen moment you're about to see with speaker kevin mccarthy on the house floor. president biden giving his speech as well, both very clearly designed to lay the groundwork to create the pathway for their preferred proposals to raise the debt ceiling is a moment that underscores that this engagement is now fully under way. both sides have kind of been circling one another about the debt ceiling since the president and the speaker met in the oval office a couple of months ago. has been kind of slow burn of punching and counterpunching. now the fight is officially on. i think when you talk to white house officials, they make clear the framing of the president's speech today is very much going to be a contrast with the president has put on the table, particularly with his budget. what he wants to see happen, but also make very clear that the white house position on this remains unchanged. they will not negotiate over the debt ceiling. speaker mccarthy is going to detail his plan making very clear negotiations have to happen in order for a debt ceiling increase to happen at

all. and i think there in lies the issue here. those are not compatible positions. there's no way to thread that needle. someone is going to have to give your going to see from the president today very clearly is something that will underscore the fact that white house officials believe they hold the political high ground. they don't believe they have to give this point in time and this fight as it very clearly. ramps up today is one that's going to play out in a very intense manner with very enormous potential consequence. rinses over the next couple of months. just one final thing to say is the president is fully engaged in a very aggressive manner here. you're seeing this across the board. white house officials, sending documents sending memos up to democrats on capitol hill, the president, speaking with senate majority leader chuck schumer, and house minority leader hakeem jeffries last night to align on these issues outside groups aligned with the white house, starting to engage as well. so basically , you're seeing a full scale ramp up of what we expect will be a couple of months of very intense battles, brianna the battle lines are drawn. phil mattingly. thank you so much, jim. alright some good news here walking miracle. that's what ralph charles attorney is

calling. the kansas city teenager. here is a new photo of him. this is remarkable considering what he went through. you could see ralph on the right. he's wearing a green shirt. obviously younger man this after returning home from the hospital, 16 year old shot last week when he went to the wrong house. that's all he did pick up his siblings. according to his attorney. he has a long road ahead, but he can walk and he can communicate and boy wasn't guaranteed to be that way. any moment now. andrew lester, the man facing two felony counts after shooting ural, that's the man on the left. there is expected to be arraigned in court. cnn's adrian broadest following the story for us, so two felony counts. what are those? and how does the standard ground your ground law factor into all this from the prosecutor's perspective? you know, jim, before i answer those questions, i think it is first important to underscore that ralph isn't just sitting at home healed, his mother says, and she told cbs news is gayle king that her son is surrounded by a team

of medical professionals, including herself. she has 20 years of experience as a nurse. we also heard from merritt, who is representing the family, and he shared with us that this young teen suffered a traumatic brain injury and he also went on to say in part that had the bullet hit his head of fraction of an inch in any other direction. he would probably be dead right now. he is expected to make a full recovery, but it will take time. he also said, we ask that you pray for ralph and his family daily hearing. all of this. there is another storyline developing we heard from the mayor of the city, saying the outcome could have been different, but something like this should have been avoided. he calls it like this. listen in . i think that this has everything to do with race. the

defendant's fear of black people , black men, black boys, and i think that's why we are all discussing this now, for some reason, right, because it is something that is tragic, and i think that if the young man wasn't black, we wouldn't be here today. and jim to get back to your question regarding the latest and what is next. andrew lester is facing two felony counts. he is expected to appear before a judge later today shortly we will be following that we know he was released on bond and some of those conditions he's banned from having weapons. he can have no contact with the oral or his family. that's ralph's family. and his cellphone will also be monitored, jim adrian brought us on the story. thanks so much for us. now to the battle over a critical abortion medication at any moment now, the supreme court is expected to decide whether millions of women can

have full access to the abortion pill mifepristone. that's the drug most commonly used to terminate pregnancies. it's also frequently prescribed to treat miscarriages as well. it was approved by the fda more than two decades ago. hold on a lower court's ruling restricting access to the pill is set to expire at 11 59 pm tonight with us now to discuss is cnn's senior supreme court analyst joan biskupic. joan thanks so much for being with us, so what options do the supreme court justices have at this point? okay so we're back at a supreme court that just 10 months ago eliminated all constitutional right to abortion, but said that it would be up to the states and that they were not outlawing it so they have, and this is a very different kind of case. they have they can do anything for it. but let me just boil it down to two main options. they can grant the request from the biden administration and the drug manufacturer to put the lower quote court rulings on hold. just let everything pause while the controversy plays out in

lower court litigation, that would be the simplest approach right here and probably the least disruptive. but they could also that's i mean, if they granted granted, that would be the simplest if they deny it. that's when you're going to see a lot of chaos because the lower court rulings in effect right now would allow the fda approval for the drug but restrict access . for example, the window for obtaining the drug would go from 10 weeks of pregnancy down to seven weeks of pregnancy. the generic drug that is that the one most used on the market right now would not be available there be other restrictions. and that's why the biden administration, in its filing has tried to make a very compelling case that this is time to just wait. let the litigation play out in the fifth circuit where the merits of the case are going to be heard on may 17th just wait on that another option is that the justices could say no, we will hear it first and not wait for the fifth as you said they can do anything here, right? we

often ask you to read the tea leaves and ask if the justices have dropped any hints. have you read anything? okay, well, let me just say they were all in the bench this morning and i went up there for oral arguments, and they only now are back together. weighing this. i want to stress how this is different from what they did last june. this goes to the fda authority to use its own scientific determinations and what drugs would be a right what drugs have been tested and are safe and effective and if they were to set effectively second guess that by letting these lower court orders take effect, it would it would really disrupt. the entire fda scheme for approval of drugs question and not just for drugs related to abortion. but all sorts of that's what people are saying, you know that the alzheimer drugs that any kind of drugs that you can imagine it would be for any new any existing and new drugs because what the lower court judges did in this case, we're essentially put themselves

in the shoes. of the agency experts who were had looked at all the studies and determined at least through their eyes that the drug was safe and effective. critics were arguing that it's essentially a judge playing scientists and trying to review data. joan biskupic, please keep this up to date with what you hear. thanks so much. thanks for us, jim. while the accused pentagon leaker was back in court today, more details trickled out about what was in those classified documents he released, including information about reported chinese supersonic spy drone. the fallout continues. the unit jack to share a was a member of his now sideline from intelligence missions as the pentagon investigates. plus alabama. police say they arrested two teen suspects this in the deadly mass shooting at the sweet 16 party in alabama. more on that. just a hit. mm hmm. mhm power

theorist, and he's a prominent anti vaccine advocate. cnn's jeff zeleny has been tracking all of this. and jeff there were questions about whether president biden may face a democratic rival in a potential reelection bid. i bet this is not what he expected. certainly not being challenged by kennedy, boris, but i can tell you for an hour and 48 minutes long. robert f. kennedy jr. who is the third eldest child of bobby and ethel kennedy, spoke here in boston, largely talking about vaccinations what he calls a corrupt american greed, and he promised to be a truth teller. but he did not correct any of his mistress city has been really gaining prominence on for years talking about the safety and security of vaccines. but he did take note of the fact that the majority of his family was not on hand for this announcement. take a listen to how he characterized that. i'm very, very grateful to all of

you for coming. there are other members of my family who are not here today. many of them also just just plain disagree with me on the issues like the censorship. on war on public health and they aren't hideout to their beliefs and i respect their opinions on them. and i love them back. he may love them back, but nearly to a person, his siblings and other stories, members of the kennedy family have largely denounced his decision to launch this long shot presidential bid challenging president biden but also challenging science. now he's spent more time talking about what he views as the corruption of corporate america . he railed against the media. he railed against american wars but really used the history of his uncle, john f. kennedy and his father, bobby kennedy, to describe diapers on presidential bid. but there were so many historical miss comparisons over these generations. we couldn't

even get in all those again an hour and 48 minute long speech. clearly he's trying to appeal to his group of supporters who have joined his call because of the anti vaccination movement here, unclear where he will go on from this in the democratic presidential bid, but he is at least formally challenging president biden. for us. historical miss comparisons, perhaps the way he will be remembered in his presidential campaign. jeff zeleny. thank you so much for that, brianna. the drip of information from the pentagon leaks still sending shock waves through the defense department, the capital and across the globe. next hour, the entire senate will be briefed on this and they concerning new detail report of reported about china's capabilities is sure to be top of mind for those senators, according to the washington post. one pentagon document shows beijing is ready to roll out in advanced spider phone unit that could give it an edge on surveillance. the man suspected of kicking off this whole ordeal, jack teixeira was back. back in court today,

albeit briefly, and now the unit where he was assigned has lost its intelligence role pending an air force investigation. cnn's oren liebermann is at the pentagon for us or let's start with this chinese drone program. just how high tech are we talking about? so first, let's take a look at this drone. this is a picture from back in 2019. if we can show you of the w z, a drone supersonic spy drone that china rolled out in a military parade in terms of what it's capable of at the time analyst didn't think it was flying yet, but here's a look at what analysts now saying what these washington post documents that cnn has not been able to obtain or verify say about the capabilities of the drone. it can fly at mach three or better so three times the speed of sound at an altitude of 100,000 ft and those capabilities give it the ability to evade detection and interception. and that's potentially what the u. s is looking at, as worries some here and it's not this drone on its own. in fact, in a bit of a

role reversal, the u. s had its own supersonic spy drone designed to spy on china back in the late sixties early seventies timeframe, but it was decommissioned in the mission was canceled after four unsuccessful mission. so the technology itself perhaps not that worrisome, but it's the big picture of china's surveillance program. overall it's the spy satellites. it's the spy balloon that we, of course, remember from just a few weeks back, and now a super personifies spy drone that these documents say is intended to perhaps spy on taiwan or in parts of south korea, brianna or in what went into this decision to pull this unit of to share as off its original intel assignment. first this gives us an idea of how seriously the air force view this views this secretary frank kendall, taking a number of steps here, but also the potential ramifications here. the unit itself under investigation from the air force inspector general, the one second intelligence wing had a role of collecting and putting together essentially a classified intel briefer,

combatant commanders and others that has now been pulled and given to other intelligence wings in the air force as well as these other steps you see here from the air force to stand down across the a service within 30 days to discuss how to handle these sorts of documents and review, as well as to reassess security procedures around the handling of classified intel. and then finally, a review of everyone who has this level of clearance to make sure they're actually on a need to know basis, brianna oren liebermann at the pentagon. thank you for that, jim. let's talk about now where this all stands what we've learned about what's been lost here, cnn's global affairs analyst, senior managing editor at military times, kimberly dozier, great to have you here? you made a great point in preparation for this, and that is that there may be consideration of having national guard units with this kind of intelligence access due to the temporary nature of their role. perhaps less oversight. i mean, is it possible that this temporary removal of his unit from that kind of intelligence could be a sign of things to come more broadly? well the

pentagon moves slowly and then very, very fast. they're going to be looking at not just at the air force. but across the force who has access to what did this leak happened because procedures that were already in place weren't followed, and this was just sloppy execution, or was it a breakdown because this particular unit was a part time unit now during the wars of iraq and afghanistan, as the u. s, was trying to keep the ranks filled. and keep up with the optempo of combat national guard units reserve units took on much greater roles. and right now we've got. for instance, the california national guard unit has been working there. therefore so folks have been working directly with ukrainian pilots over the years way before the war started the latest invasion by russia. so this is the kind of thing that now people are going to look at. specifically what went wrong in this particular unit, and does it indicate a system wide

problem not to diminish the role of the national guard units by by by any means, but it becomes a risk reward issue here. i've noticed a difference when i speak to british officials, for instance, about the damage from this leak. an american official spoke to the defense minister of the uk ben wallace. yesterday he said. i haven't skipped heartbeat on this. a lot of it's fake spoke to john kirby yesterday and here's what he told me have a listen. we know that some of the documents have been sort of doctored or manipulated in some way, not all of them but some of them so with certainly there's a case to be made that not all that information is valid. he did go on to say, though. make no bones about it. we still don't know the full extent to this based on folks. you speak to how seriously are they taking this? and they think there's more to drop. they're afraid of that. so not only is the fbi going over to share his laptops, whatever electronic that they could get from him his home and interviewing anyone he interacted with trying to see there also be trying to see what

he shared with them. but they will also be looking at his logins for as long as he worked. at that unit. what did he access because everything he accessed potentially might be leaked. and then they've got to warn every ally that might be mentioned now. as bad as this is, however, in one sense the system worked in that there's a tiered access as you know to intelligence and he had top secret. but he didn't have tsc i top secret compartmented environmental ized . yeah, information so he didn't access so he got assessments of oh, we don't think that ukrainian military has enough ammunition for x y z. but what he didn't get where the sources and methods of how they access that information. and that is one of the concerns in the wake of anything like this. we start with wikileaks. chelsea manning doesn't expose sensitive sources abroad whose lives may be in danger. and so that's a notable distinction. but that said, if you are a spy overseas, rather, you know an agent that a cia

officer is running. are you going to think twice about risking your life to get and share information? if you think the u. s is going to leak it? maybe not. that's the concern with all of these leaks will continue to follow. kim dozier. thanks so much, boris still to come a quote tsunami of pilot retirements is on the horizon. the red flags that were raised today on capitol hill when it comes to the airline industry, and you're looking at live pictures out of maryland, where president biden is expected to take on republicans. on the economy. there is the podium awaiting the president. that crucial debt ceiling deadline is now just months away. while he's already saying he will not negotiate. stay with us. my name is j joshua florence. and one thing i learned being a firefighter's plalan ahead. you don't know what you're getting into. but at the end of the day, you know you have a team behind you that can help you. not

lauren fox on capitol hill. and this is cnn. and here are some of the headlines. we're following here on cnn news. central police have arrested two teenagers in last weekend's birthday party shooting, and david villa, alabama, the suspects 16 and 17 years old. they're charged as adults, though with reckless murder. four people at the party were killed, dozens more injured. prosecutors said that more charges are expected. speaker kevin mccarthy is pushing to release his debt limit bill here he is speaking now on the house floor. he wants to hold a floor vote next week that, according to three sources familiar with the matter, mccarthy facing the toughest challenge of his leadership, says it will have enough votes to pass the republican controlled house. just minutes from now. president biden expected to blast mccarthy's spending strategy

during a speech touting his own economic plan, the president touring a union training facility in maryland. and we are also following as we get a new look at ralph yard. kansas city team who rang the doorbell just at the wrong address, and it was shot in the head and the arms by the homeowners here. this is new picture. that's a 16 year old green spirit sitting next to his attorney. family spokesman calls ralph a walking miracle but does note he still faces a long recovery traumatic brain injury among these injuries. further south we are following yet another shooting in texas a man is now charg car full of teenage cheerleaders after one of the girls just mistakenly tried to get io suspect's car in a parking lot after practice. two of the teens were injured in this one of them. peyton washington is in critical condition right now. police say the suspect was known to law enforcement. we have cnn's ed lavandera, who joins us with

details and tell us the details of how this all went. down because it was after the teen left the car and the mistakes seemed to be very clear. that this all transpired. yeah just really senseless, the way all of this unfolded, according to one of the teenagers that was in that car, she told her her teammates in a speech individual last night that she had gotten out of the car they had arrived at the parking lot of this grocery store in elgin, texas, just outside of austin. it was just after midnight. they had come back from a long drive from the houston area after a night of practice. she gets into started approaching a car and getting into a car that she thought was hers. when she opened the door, she noticed that there was a man in the passenger seat. so she was aware of her mistake. she got back in the car with her friends. but in that time, police say that man walked around the car and then opened fire of rather quickly, according to people around these cheerleaders. ah on that on that

car as as they were driving away , so, um, the girl, the young girl said she was trying to apologize to the person for getting in the wrong car. but despite all of that the shots were fired the girl, heather, heather roth, is her name. she was lightly wounded in her legs . she was treated at the scene and released, but really a lot of the attention right now on peyton washington. who is in critical condition. we've gotten some encouraging news here in the last couple of hours that washington has been taken off of a ventilator that she's communicating with friends and family. and there does seem to be some hope that this is moving in a good direction for her, but she has some rather extensive in serious wounds. but the manager for cheerleading squad told us just a little while ago. she says that her competitive spirit has not been dampened by any of this. the realization of the fact that she's not going to be competing this weekend. it was

starting to set in. i think so. she was extremely you know, up and down with her emotions, but she was she was talking and for the most part, doing well. there's cheerleading team was preparing for a huge event this weekend in orlando, and that's what peyton washington it was doing. she is a rather incredible story. she has already committed to be part of the baylor university, acrobatics and tumbling team next year. she was born with one lung. and despite all of that, her coaches say she has reached the heights of her sports, a rather inspiring young woman who is fighting for her life today. brianna amazing to hear that she's talking to some of her teammates. ed lavandera. thank you for that report. boris now to a story that could have a major impact on your travel airlines are warning that a tsunami of retirements could complicate your ability to hit the airways, cnn aviation correspondent pete mountain is here to explain pete, a tsunami

of retirements who is retiring. and why it sounds dramatic, right? you know this whole idea that the alarm bells are getting louder when it comes to the pilot shortage, and this is coming from regional airlines, which operate those flights between those major hubs and smaller cities. and they're saying the service could come down to smaller cities and in some cases, some places would lose service completely because of the pilot shortage. the tsunami of retirements there warning about really goes really deep. this is the impact 11. airports with no service 42 states with less service compared to before the pandemic 500 airplanes right now sitting idle. the issue here is that about 50% of all commercial pilots, according to the regional airline association will retire in the next 15 years . this just came out of the house committee hearing on capitol hill. the other issue here is how to deal with it. they're not a ton of good ideas, and they're pretty controversial. one idea is to raise the retirement age for pilots mandatory that they retired now at 65 the ideas they can retire at 67. we'll see if

that takes hold. the other idea is to lower the record. wire mint and the bar for pilots to reach before they become an airline pilot 1500 hours is the bar that they must reach. and so this is the rev now, and i want you to listen now to heads of trade associations and the airline pilots union and what they say here is the best idea. listen. i'm not here to say who's dangerous. i can tell you that the europeans have studied this extensively, uh, raising the retirement age past 60 with medical in in in evidence and have said no, it's not a good idea, and they're recommending against it. these pilots are not operating in a different world. they're operating in our country there flying over your schools, your churches, your synagogues there in our system, and they're flying safety. they're flying safely. so the bottom line here, boris. it's a great time to learn to fly. if you have the ability to and the airlines are clamoring for people what we're

talking a shortage of maybe 640,000 pilots worldwide over the next few decades, according to boeing is a really big deal. that is a huge deal. what are the airlines doing to prepare for? this airlines? can't really do all that much in here in the u. s short of an act of congress, they would need congress to change the retirement age. they would need them to change the requirements to become an airline pilot. the thing that airlines are trying to do is just trying to get more people in the door hunt for ducks where there are ducks. they're having bringing training in house trying to lower the cost of things, but really the other issue here is that so few young people are interested in learning to become an airline pilot, the under 30 corps of people right now, that's only about 8% of all airline pilots, so it's really hard for them to matriculate up, especially as we're facing the shortage. if you're looking for a job, you're looking for a gig and you're a young person. why not be a pilot? you get to travel? yeah. you get the bennies. thank you so much. brianna as long as pete doesn't quit his day job, right? do not do that, pete. all right,

so still to come on. cnn news, central former trump organization cfo alan weisberg is out of jail after serving time for a decade long tax fraud scheme. we have that story next , and where president by actually let's listen in to president biden in maryland. production i appreciate it. hello operating engineers, local 77. i might know. from the time i announced the united states senate when i was a kid, i had the support of operating engineers. i love you all. thank you. thank you. thank you. you guys are found 122 years ago. that's not what i got endorsed. skilled workers operating all kinds of construction recruitment. it can't be a better place to talk about the progress we made together. how it's working with the country and how our migrant brothers please sit down. failed to tell you say that to you. thank you. you know, uh i'm gonna just race at the front end. this ain't

your father's republican party. it's a different deal right now . and uh, minority of the party of the mega i call the maga. republicans are control the party and they're in congress threatening undo all the stuff that you helped me. get done. that's why i'm here today because you and the american people should know about the competing economic visions of the country that are really at stake right now. i'm here in this union hall with you. when? just two days ago, the speaker of the house, kevin mccarthy went to wall street to describe the mega economic vision for america. and this very clear they've laid it out. i know when i was telling you was going to happen to telling folks they looked at me like that can't happen. well, guess what is attempted to try to happen now? massive cuts in programs you count on massive benefit protected for those top. a lot of you know, all the tax cuts go to the top. none of the bottom. the threat of defaulting on america's debt for the first

time in 230 years, we've never ever default on the debt. it would destroy this economy. and who do you think will hurt the most? you hard working people, the middle class the neighborhoods i got raised in not the super wealthy and the powerful but working folks, and that's what i want to talk about today. you know, uh and i know where i you know where i stand. i make no apologies. and i mean this sincerely for being the most pro union president, american history. it's not just because i grew up with you always because it's true. you know when i speak to the business roundtable on the muckety mucks are good, a lot a lot of decent people. the very all the business enterprises. it looked at me like, hey, guys, don't jump, okay? but all kidding aside, you know, uh, they look at me like why am i always talking about unions? i said, because, you know, they

don't appreciate how hard y'all work. how damaged heart is for you to get it to be able to become something other than an apprentice takes four years to train and apprentice just like going back to school. tell business leaders all the time. i tell them that i'm pro union because union workers are the best workers in the world and you are the best not not a joke. that's the god's truth. that is, you got to be the best in the world. it's better a long term for them to hire you because you get the job done get it done on time, and ultimately, it's cost them less when they hire you. so i've said many times, wall street didn't build america, the middle class pull america and unions built the middle class. that's a fact unions. one of the reasons i ran for president was to rebuild the backbone, the backbone of this country, the middle class. to grow the economy from the middle out in

the bottom up, not from the top down. because when the middle class does well, the poor have a lighter up on the wealthy. do very well still and we middle class you get a shot. we do well as well. that's a clear contrast to my friends on the other side of the aisle these days didn't used to be didn't used to be. but it is now for decades. they've said that the best way to grow the economy is from a top down, trickle down. economics were growing up. i didn't see a whole whole lot trickled down on our three bedroom houses, four kids and my dad's kitchen table. you know what trickle down didn't work for us, and it didn't work for a long time. and by the way, it's not just what's been in the maga republicans for the last 34 decades we've been losing ground. and you know it's hollowed out the middle class, you know, rewarding wealth, not work. rewarding companies moving overseas. because it gets cheaper labor. look at all the lot of you know, maybe you come from neighborhoods until small

towns like scranton, pennsylvania. i came from claymont, delaware. i came from where usually be a lot of pride because we had business we had factories are working operating. in scranton and claymont. there were 4500 steelworkers. there's none today. and not only do you lose the jobs you lose. a sense of pride was a sense of who you are. you begin to wonder. does anybody see me? i mean this sincerely, those of you from the midwest travel through the midwest towns where they had a factory of 0.6 800 people. you lose it, you lose everything. a lot of people get this. how many of your friends you know of around the country who have had this conversation their son or daughter finished? his education high school comes to mom and dad's mom. i can't stay. there's no work. i gotta move. i gotta leave. why does that why they jobs go overseas? because we're cheap labor. rather than making the product here in america. we made it overseas, they need a

wider economic inequity along the way, losing something else. as i said pride. literally pride. it matters. my dad never went to college. my dad was a decent, honorable man busted his neck. but in my dad he talked about, you know everybody deserves to be treated with dignity. was self recognizing himself worth i mean it sincerely not not. it's not a joke. this is something i feel my gut, not just my heart and my heart. you know how many of you you know what it's like growing up in a community where that factory does shut down. where the community gets hollowed out. gets hollowed out literally. folks trickle down. economics doesn't work. and together we've been doing everything we can to turn things around. and with your help. one of the first things we did was passed. the american rescue plan was not one of the other team voting for it. help. all right. we've been listening there to president

biden and accokeek, maryland with a pro union anti trickle down economics message, and you heard him there he was hitting republicans for their refusal to raise the debt limit in a clean way. now i want to get to manu raju on the hill because there was actually a bit of a dueling speech going on manu, with house speaker kevin mccarthy laying out the republican debt limit bill on the house floor. yeah, that's right. he just announced the republican plans to raise the national debt limit by $1.5 trillion or as late as early as march of 2024. that's what this legislation calls for. remember if they don't raise the debt ceiling? there could be the first ever u. s default as soon as this june or it could even slip into september. but that is the real fear here than under this republican proposal they would allow for another $1.5 trillion for the debt limit was already north of $31 trillion to be increased. but pair that with a range of spending cuts. that is what mccarthy detailed on the

floor among the matters dealing with the repeal of the democratic inflation reduction act that be part of this legislation as well as imposing new work requirements and medicaid beneficiaries as well as cutting domestic spending, rolling back current spending levels for domestic programs, not defense programs, but a range of other ones for 2022 levels, which would amount to a significant cut across the board. we have not seen all the details of this. yeah, but mccarthy said it would. quite it would save about $4.5 trillion. it's likely over 10 years, according to their estimates. mccarthy is pushing very hard to get this done. he knows full well that democrats in the senate won't accept this. the democrat in the white house won't accept this, but he wants to prove house republicans can get a bill through that would raise the debt limit and cut spending and he's trying to get this on the floor as soon as next week and behind. the scenes of furious effort is going on to try to ensure that republicans, particularly conservatives, who have been skeptical about raising the debt ceiling would come along to this. and

according to his little margin for error, he cannot lose more than four republican votes in order to get this bill. this party line built across and what mccarthy house would strengthen his negotiating position with the white house and essentially forced joe biden to the negotiating table to find some sort of deal to cut spending and pair that with a debt limit. increase something that president biden right there, as you heard is rejected. now. i just spoke with mccarthy as he left the house floor. he is still confident that he will get the votes next week to do this, and he also defended the push to simply raise the debt ceiling, which differed only do it for about one year, which means that it would kick this again into the election year. 2024 mccarthy believes that he's doing the right thing here. but this conference will be aligned and the showdown will happen next week. real. a game of chicken with huge stakes manu the credit rating of the united states and perhaps the global economy. thank you for that report from capitol hill will continue to watch this and we'll be right back here to cnn news, central.
