win. and for the united states with your support, we are going to win this battle. a >> bill: thanks for your time today! >> dana: thank you so much. a lot of news next week as well, the news never stops. "the faulkner focus" is up next, here is harris. >> and we begin with house republicans going on the offense laying out the most ambitious agenda for america. perhaps since the 1990s. it gets the g.o.p. hitting the ground running to win the house. i am harris faulkner, you are in "the faulkner focus." the republican commitment to america may be a nod to the contract of america that definitely worked for republicans in 1994. they won, both the house and the senate for the first time in four decades back then. this new agenda focuses on a strong economy, something we

really need. energy independence, the supply chain, the southern border, and crime. house minority leader kevin mccarthy and dozens of his colleagues formerly put it out there from battles ground state pennsylvania. >> washington using their political power to go after people for their own beliefs. we watched children get a loss of learning left behind. that's what happened with the democrats, because they control washington. they control the house, the senate, the white house, they control the committees, they control the agencies. it is their plan. but they have no plan to fix all the problems they created. >> harris: and what will the democrats do? already they are quick to attack. let's go to alexandria half now for the very latest on this. alexandria. >> hi, harris, about 25 miles south of pittsburgh right now where republicans had pitched a

new direction. this was in the year and a half and really a push to prove to americans that under republican majority that they can reverse issues that democrats have created angle number one is to rein in spending. >> this is what we will do, on the very first day we are sworn and you'll see that it all changes, because on our very first bill we are going to repeal 87,000 irs agents. speak on top of this promise to reinvigorate the economy, america pillars that securing the nation that is safe but builds on freedom and a government that is accountable within those recurrent, the parties plan to securing the border and stopping the track of fenton all come a big talk today. with energy independent education since system. and was also announced to create

a special committee on china and facilitate the hiring of 2000 help american feel secure once again. democrats as you mention have been quick to pounce on this feeling that the promises are still too vague and have cited issues like abortion to realize why voters can turn around the expectation on the republican takeover of the house. this morning just a few miles away, democratic house majority leader spoke at an event at the united steelworkers union and said this about voters. >> so just about 20 miles away from here and was right outside of pittsburgh and the sound bite we were hoping to play he called this plan extreme. he said that voters do not want it, he thinks republicans are seeking to tear apart america, house speaker nancy pelosi released a similar statement this morning regarding the announcement today and that was prior to the events, prior to

the hearing, some more details about this and also said that what voters want is action, but the republicans, the 30 members who are here today saying that is exactly what they are intending to do with the plan they have outlined. >> harris: before i let you go, because it is important to hear what people are saying, you were in the room and i know that they had some q&a and it was almost like a town hall and they are, what were people talking about? >> so harris, yes, we took probably about ten questions that came out to. >> harris: that is a lot. >> we knew who they were cal calling. and it took a while, but it gave people the opportunity to be heard from a law enforcer, several moms, talking about inflation taking a toll on them, but the safety element especially out here in western pennsylvania, you know, you have pittsburgh so close, but philadelphia the homicide rates were discussed a lot. asking specifics about this plan and that's where we heard more about the committee on china. these answers came from questions from the audience.

>> harris: you said that some of those had been set up, but ten gone too many town halls, tennis a lot of questions to answer. so that was illuminating. i also caught that it was in washington county pennsylvania, the minority leader mccarthy saying that they wanted to focus on the people of washington, not to the washington, d.c. so a lot of organist ration -- orchestration, thank you, putting us with your great reporting is always. michael mccaul to talk republican on the house public affairs committee, and homeland security committee is with us now. so first of all, welcome to the program. and i know a lot of what is talked about today had to do with unity for the party, but the country needs it so much t too. >> yes, it is hard for me to hear, but what you say is very powerful, and i think that what we did in washington county,

pennsylvania, the steel manufacturing facility where they make manufacturers in america not in china, and china came up a lot today and the fence crisis, coming across into our states and cities like this town, killing the youngest generation. and it was a great town hall and our commitment to america to put the power back to the people and not the other way around. >> harris: and at the sound of my voice now? >> i can. >> harris: okay, making progress, always making progress, one of the things that has been a huge point and particularly the last presidential election, we saw this kind of building and with governors races in virginia now with young parents and their

voices. and the bill of rights, and put it up on the big wall, tell me about the importance of the bill of rights for parents day to you have included in the vision for america. >> i think it's hugely important, because the parents have no rights with their kids education. and it demonstrates the republicans understand this and are going to change when we get the majority back. and what they call the tiger moms talked about how she was labeled a domestic terrorist by the justice department. and this is the power by the federal government to get us to a local school board issue and local parent as a domestic terrorist.

we get the majority and the gavels and a lot of oversight on a lot of these issues including my committee on foreign affairs. >> harris: we did put that up for our viewers and a kind of took down what was included in the parents bill of rights, and one of the key points was that parents have the right to know what is being taught in schools. we lost so much power as parents across america. all of us. it does not matter what you believe or how you vote, what you live when your child is with you and they are at home on a device, and still can approach what we are learning. and you are losing traction. and what i hear this is trying to do is get some traction back and get the voice back for parents. let's move to this -- >> it is very personal. with their child's education and have a say in it with critical race theory and the agenda, so

this will run designate well with the american people. >> harris: you can imagine that almost simultaneously we run the attack as we put this out there through the house majority leader, let's watch and listen. >> they don't want to extremism, it seeks to tear america apart. they don't want empty rhetoric. pieces of paper, commitment to it. don't give me a commitment, do it. >> harris: we have been saying that for nearly two years in the white house, but your response? >> i think that they have not had a plan. they failed over the last two years. we heard that from the audience today in terms of gas prices and national security issues, the role of china, manufacturing. we told the supply chains out of china and manufacturing right here like we are in

washington county pennsylvania, not in china. and our oversights as well, but they are out of touch. and the president in front of the united nations not being able to put a sentence together, what i see as weakness and projecting abroad to our allies and to our enemies more importantly, and that always invites aggression and that's what you have seen in the world stage particularly after the disaster withdraw from afghanistan and vladimir putin going into ukraine and thinking about going into taiwan. it's a far more dangerous world right there in the run with a nuclear bomb. and it's stale and quite honestly this was an energizing event. i can't tell you how great it was. >> harris: i want to cut in, i know that there is a huge level of excitement right now. something that people are hoping

you would address and it is in the commitment to america, it is a weak spots for democrats. the presidents border crisis, especially terrifying to people who live along the border, there is 1,933 miles and you are from texas. homeland security committee, i mean, this is something you are so close to, so i want to share with you a texas farmers video that he put out online and says that they are illegal immigrants in his ranch running from border agents and barricading themselves inside his grandparents home. i was recently at the border, i also talked with people who are having this happen and getting their houses on those homesteads, broken into, guns taken, anything they got in there. meanwhile borders are, so called czar kamala harris has not been to the border in 15 months. the vice president sounded off yesterday going after a republican governor for busing illegals to sanctuary cities including her d.c. residents, and she is still blaming everybody else for the crisis

she is supposed to fix. let's watch and listen. >> they are playing games, these are political stunts with real human beings who are fleeing harm, the previous administration, they decimated a system that was designed to address immigration. and so we have been spending the last 18 months we have been in office spending an incredible amount of time and work and resources to reconstruct that system. >> harris: despite the record number of accounts with illegal immigrants at the border, democrats, o one of dhs and doj, with governor desantis flying migrants tom martha's vineyard. first of all, your quick reaction to that part of the story. >> well, i mean, he is playing games here. on day one they were sent to remain in mexico, creating this whole crisis. quite frankly, harris, it is a self-inflicted wound but it is a

devastating proportions. we have fought almost 5 million illegal immigrants now that have come across since the administration started. kamala harris has never gone down but maybe one time, and now where the hot points are, my texans are being overrun down in the valley. in a lot of discussion -- there is a lot of discussion today about the fentanyl crisis which is the number one killer now of the youngest generation, 100,000 dying this year and enough to kill the entire population, seven times over, biggest human trafficking crisis in our lifetime. i think what my governor greg abbott and ron desantis are trying to illustrate it as we deal with this day and in and day out and we are giving them a dose of their medicine so that they can see what has happened as a result of their policies. and i commend governor abbott and ron desantis for doing this, because they don't see it up there like we do in texas,

and it is devastating. >> harris: you know what, i mentioned i was just there, just a few days ago this week and i want to piggyback after something i said, because a lot of people don't know about operation lone star. that's what your state is doing right now. your state's department of public safety, your states sector border patrol agents, and your state's state police are getting together and trying to catch illegals 24 hours a day. dps of texas took me up in a chopper this week and i want to share some of that, let's watch. speak of this administration is in the united states, that's why governor abbott and ron desantis are busing them out of texas. because they get lit loose into texas and we are just overwhelmed. right here first? >> yes, yes, i see them. >> we will put them on your side

just go around. they are hugging the tree line right there. running. going back in. >> harris: so this is just some fake dance the government is doing now making us think that they are keeping us safe by stopping these guys and then letting us go, it is so fake. >> it makes no sense. we have five runners, six runners, yeah, right there. >> harris: brian, do you see them? you got them? oh, they are out in the open now. oh, look at that. they are still running. >> harris: we chased him for a couple of hours, we took off 12 hours of time with the border patrol on the ground taken to keep going. they had already been searching for like seven hours by the time

our chopper got there. and it was 15 people, they had to bring in multiple vehicles to take them out. you are under siege along the border. >> we are, and you sense the frustration that we see all the time, and it is a movie i've seen that is the worst movie i've seen now, i've seen it for you know 20 years, but this is the absolute worst i've seen it. and the governor called me and said what more can i do? this is a federal responsibility, not a state responsibility, and yet my state has stepped up to the plate and puts millions of dollars into protecting the border with our great texas dps working with the border patrol agents, by the way, border patrol agents despise governor mallorca's, they turned their backs on him, because secretary, you turned your back on us and this busing

is done out of complete frustration as to what more can we do? when i toured homeland security working with the prior administration, we got this board are and they unraveled everything by rescinding what we did in mexico, they are complicit with the deaths of all of these children coming in the human trafficking, and this did not have to happen. it is a completely self-inflicted wound. >> harris: that was one side of the story, where people say it is mostly people from mexico and that's why the border patrol just turns and goes back across the border, that group was 13 hondurans and they were giving us the bird and waving to us. i mean, they know they have made an illegal entry, and they will be free to roam and just a few hours after they go through processing where they can barely keep up with processing. >> they make a mockery out of us, yes, they make a mockery out of the system and catch and release his back, alive and well

now and you can see the frustration. and they are not really coming from mexico, it is central america and a lot of other special interest alias countries as well and some on the terrorist watch list, which as a prosecutor greatly concerns me. >> harris: there is so much to hit, and spent a lot of time with dps and border patrol and they were all telling me similar stories about the money that the cartels are making, and they were basically complicit by having an open border. we allow the cartels to get paid upfront, and whether those people die getting here they artie got their money. chinese nationals apparently are paying $30,000 per person and we don't really know who is coming here, and we know that they make a lot of fentanyl in china, your thoughts on that? >> the cartels are now in control. they have operational control of the southwest border. and they are making billions and billions of dollars, not only on

taking the children and the migrants across the border, but also the drugs they bring income of the most dangerous the fentanyl themselves which is number one leading killer in the youngest generation in the united states, and i do fault the administration. they are complicit and with this and the government of mexico is doing nothing in response, because all of the money iming . and the chinese are behind this too with their precursors coming in mexico making this stuff to kill americans. and for them great foreign policy, right? the chinese make money and they kill americans in the process. it's like a reverse opium war situation. it has got to stop, and with our commitment to america we will stop this. >> harris: congressman, it does have to stop. we are outnumbered and they are coming through with weapons and stealing them when they get here.

it is a potential powder keg at all hours as you know and i am glad to be a part of the network that can tell you that story. congressman, thank you for talking so much with us today. commitment to america is where we started and you just on my visit to the border during my talk there with the congressman, much more on that too, as we continue to report here on "the faulkner focus," stay close.

>> harris: house democrats have been fighting over a police reform bills, had to delay a vote when there was a revolt by some liberal defund squad members. now those four bills have passed. the package gives millions of dollars in grants to law enforcement agencies among other initiatives. the bills now had said the democrat-controlled senate. we don't know what is going to

happen there. it's usually where those things go to die. house democrats are desperate to shake the defund label ahead of the midterm spread republican say it is all just a stunt and the democrats should be worried. a recent fox poll found 51% of voters who were extremely concerned about crime refer republican candidates on the issue. only 34% favor democrats. republican jim jordan. >> one of the phrases we heard from the democrats over the last couple of years was reimagine policing. now we know what they mean. now we get it to. they want to take money from communities who funded their police and give it to communities who didn't so that they can get past this whole defund the police that has been their mantra for the last couple of years. >> harris: what, dems are no longer going to reimagine? we can reimagine this. >> outdated, it is wrongheaded thinking to think that the only way you are going to get communities to be safe is to put

more police officers on the street. what we have to do what we we will do is reimagine public safety. >> harris: they reimagined it all right. marc thiessen, fox news contributor, former white house speechwriter and "washington post" columnist, most importantly broken and dangerous. >> absolutely, they are trying to reimagine their own policies is what they are doing. look, the reality is for the past several years democratic policies have unleashed the worst crime wave in america since the 1990s and now a couple of weeks before the election they are panicking because it is hurting them at the polls. in the wisconsin senate race, mandela barnes is getting hammered because he was caught on tape saying releasing prisoners is sexy. and once to release half of the prison population in wisconsin. and john federman was asked in an interview, if you had a magic wand to fix one issue what would it be?

he said life without parole in pennsylvania paired so is number one priority is not fixing inflation, not fixing crime, not fixing the border, it is releasing convicted murderers and to the population and pennsylvania. so this is hurting them at the polls and they know it, so what they are trying to do is they are trying to shore up some of these soft on crime candidates and this is the same thing going on in the house races and try and stop the republicans from taking control of congress and as soon as they -- the election is over they will go right back to the soft-on-crime policy. >> harris: it is so fascinating what you say about veteran against dr. oz in pennsylvania, maybe that's why he did not want to have before they begin early voting debates, maybe he wanted something late in october. yes, i'll bet he does. who wants to defend what he is talking about in crime? the ceo of jpmorgan just put far left congresswoman rashida tlaib in her place. she went after him on fossil fuels at a house hearing yesterday and then he went after her.

>> does your bank have a policy against money, new oil and gas products? >> absolutely not, and that would be the road to hell for america. >> yeah, sir, you know what, everybody that got relief from student loans has a bank account with your bank should probably take out to their account and close their accounts. >> and she cannot to defend that green energy, so she went someplace else. this exchange and the broader point of mr. diamond's testimony wednesday highlight the extent to which climate obsessed lawmakers and regulators pose a greater threat to the economy and financial system then changes to the climate. >> so number one, if you want a window into the democratic economic thinking, she said everyone who borrowed money from your bank to go to college should now close their accounts, well, yeah, pay back the loan and you can close your account, it's ridiculous. number one, number two, he said

that we will be on the road to hell, for millions of americans, we are in hell right now because of the democrats 26% increase in the cost of gas, 69% price increase in home heating oil. now officially in fall heading towards winter and people have to buy heating oil for their homes and it is almost 70% higher than it was when he took office. so we are already in hell when it comes to energy policies and they have released these policies with joe biden we just found out the lowest number of oil and gas releases on federal land since world war ii. john kerry at the 26 summit said that their policy is to have no coal plants in america in -- eight years from now. so if you are a coal operator, what are you going to do? invest in upgrades? no, you're going to shut down your plant. you're not going to invest in

upgrades. >> harris: maybe that's why we are starting to hear again from senator manchin. because remember i called him on a lot of the stuff that was in some of that makes a bending inside the so-called inflation reduction act, and he flat out called me a liar on the air, i can't wait to have them back, because some of it is happening the way that it was going to lay out and it's not good for america. marc thiessen on friday, always a good thing. thank you. >> thank you, harris. he >> harris: no surprise the backlash continues against stacey abrams and she claims that a fetal heartbeat at six weeks is not real and was a made up gizmo by men. but it looks like planned parenthood now is backing her up. tammy bruce "in focus" next. ♪ ♪ know so many of you have served our country honorably. one of the benefits that we as a country give you as a veteran is the eligibility for a va loan, for up to 100% of your home's value.

>> harris: protests erupting across the nation, this year as parents look to reclaim their rights over their children's education. it's who you remember how that was. and it has launched the issue of the forefront of the midterm elections. president biden is set to address the national education association this afternoon. the nea is one of the nation's largest teachers unions. the president's speech comes as republican lawmakers in produce legislation to end the charter for pushing woke ideology. the vice president praising the group that actually dug up dirt on parents who questioned their agenda for our children. >> and we still have more to do. and we have so much to do together. nea, you are an extraordinarily effective as a group advocate for change, which is why we know

that you have been able to see the success you have achieved. and it is no surprise why, because we know unions know how to organize. >> harris: like that is supposed to mean something. tammy bruce, fox news contributor and host of "get tammy bruce on fox nation." tammy, why couldn't they organize something over the summer so that our kids could catch up? why couldn't they organize with those unions to spend some of that covid relief money and now the president says? >> because like with unions, people at the top get very rich. and stopped teachers long ago, when the vice president said a word that started with ch, i thought she was going to stay children, but she didn't, she said change, because it is great for -- i thought children, but of course they don't, of course he would not say that. unions now are fronts for left organizers. and everyone attached to it by proxy, children or teachers or

workers are expendable. they are like an excuse, they are a shadow in the midst of what the left is doing. that's why everything is collapsing. no one has made a commitment and certainly they pretend to care about who they are in charge of, but this is particularly important and we must remove government from any kind of legitimacy from the nea, because we have kids now we know are behind two and three years because of missing one year, and nobody is thinking about how do we catch these kids up, that is who thinks about that. and that's why parents need to have power back and recognizing that they should be in charge of this money so that their children get what they need. >> harris: not just missing the year, but when they did try to learn on those devices, many of them could not do that. it takes a certain type of attention span to do that. my kids were getting headaches. i mean, seriously. they have covid money that the president says that a pandemic is over, let's spend that on getting our kids to shorten that gap and have these unions put their teachers to work during

the summer. anyway. "wall street journal" op-ed, here's a quote, a very interesting op-ed in "the wall street journal" today. if you are a tomboy or a feminine boy, if you have an expression or behavior that is different from what is typically associated with your-based on traditional expectations, you are transgender. no wonder so many young people think they need medical help to correct their sex. >> you have children that don't fit in, so you jam them into a freaking box and make them be what you think it should be, children growing up behave and a lot of different ways, you can be a tomboy, you can be of perfectly happy heterosexual woman. you can grow up and be perfectly happy gay woman. but you have adults deciding what that means and where you belong, and that's from the left that says we are all for people being whoever it is they

imagine, but not when you start with children. that's where adults start to impress their issues onto children and that is the biggest abandonment of children we have seen in this country if not in human history at this point. >> harris: really quickly what you are basing some of this on, not you, but the people who say if you are a tomboy, you are this and that, but there are a lot of us who just dressed certain ways whenever we want to address certain ways. and that doesn't have anything to do with anything. what box do you put people and when they just are being themselves? >> there is style. when i was a little kid i just simply wanted to do all the things that the boys were allowed to do because at that point -- >> harris: look at my first name! >> spiritually you have attitudes that emerge, and how dare these adults who are really projecting in their issues as adults onto children when a child's life is varied it's where you would notice what you like and what you don't, and it's your choice. as a feminist, also as a gay

woman and it is important that children and adults continue to realize they are in charge. who we become is us as individuals. and to not have people force us or move us into a direction. every civil rights movement was about stopping nets. ending the judgment of others, because we were different, no matter who we are, and how they are going back to it. >> harris: would love to take the place of the other foundation that helps decide our individuality. >> that is god itself. >> harris: democrats push to make abortion a major midterm election issue, georgia gubernatorial candidates for governor stacey abrams is still getting roasted for a comment she made were loads of people are calling straight up and saying what she said. here it is. >> there is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks. it is a manufactured scam designed to and convince people that men have the right to take

control of a woman's body. >> harris: planned parenthood made a stunning move to back her up on that. the abortion provider altered its website to change wording that a fetus has a very basic beating heart at six weeks, the new wording is this, it sounds like a heartbeat on an ultrasound, but is not a fully formed heart. dr. siegel said earlier that that is where the heart begins its formation, and you can talk all day long about whether or not one person hearing a heartbeat, but another one not quite yet to defines anything. he says that also is individual journey. >> obviously when you are looking at the beginning of the formation of the hearts, there is action, there is electrical impulses, and at the electrical impulses which is what the heart operates on for all of us at this very moment is moving that muscle and that has begun development. now what they want, and this

tells you something. in a no and recognizing a heartbeat, the action of that body, the movement, the life emerging into it is a problem for them, so they want to dismiss it. they want to dehumanize that fetus as a baby, and that is, what does it tell you about the left? they want to dehumanize things. the right is trying, at least conservatives to recognize the life that we all live and experience. it is horrible, it was ghoulish, and this is what the democrats do. it is unacceptable to liberals and conservatives alike. >> harris: what it tells me when we watch the polling, the aggregate polling, not just one, clear politics a ton of them that this issue of abortion for democrats may not be taking as hot as they thought it would up against inflation and other things. that's what it tells me. >> in our generation and the 21st century, we know too much about life and facts and sciences. >> harris: so good to have you always, thank you for being "in

focus" climates are john kerry, how do these people get to be is ours? i don't know, seeing the quiet part out loud. now the latest democrat to admit this so-called inflation does not reduce inflation. well, he is a genius paired one of the most powerful democrats in washington joins a list of party members refusing to say if president biden should run again. oh, no. ♪ ♪ se, you can do just about anything. thanks, dad. that's right, robert. and it's never too early to learn you could save with america's number one motorcycle insurer. that's right, jamie. but it's not just about savings. it's about the friends we make along the way. you said it, flo. and don't forget to floss before you brush. your gums will thank you. -that's right, dr. gary. -jamie? sorry, i had another thought so i got back in line. what was it?

these economic woes top the list of every poll that voters care about. and their signature issue on this inflation -- whatever they call it, reduction act is really a climate bill. nn is about subsidizing green energy that will make inflation worse. and they don't really have an answer to these core questions of what we do about energy prices, especially as we had to winter? what do we do about inflation? what do we do about food prices? what do we do about this economy that seems to not be approving? >> harris: david, look, is calling, saying that this does not have anything to do with inflation, it was about climate change, so we will settle that and move on. i am curious to know what do you think stands out? what is your favorite as a democrat, biden climate policy, what is selling it? >> there is a bunch. >> harris: pick one. >> it's not just climate. climate we could talk about, but let's talk about counting the

out-of-pocket health care -- >> harris: no, we will talk climate, that's what we are going to talk about, because that's where we are focused. the climate czars says that this is all about the climate, this bill. and all of that is -- so what do you like about it? because right now we have some of the lowest reserves in this country which is why the gas prices are going right back up. >> well, this law, the inflation reduction act does do something to fight against inflation. i not seen report saying that it will have a negative effect. >> harris: no, the cpl said it has zero effect. zero effect until 2031, when it has maybe a little. but they did not say which direction. >> well, we know that there is very little that congress, the president can do to impact inflation. however the president and the democrats in congress have pulled out -- have left no stops pulled out. they are doing everything they can. so when we talk about climate,

this is a significant investment in our fight against climate change and our economy. when we look at the legislation, it is requiring that the investments and renewable energy are coming from products that have to be made in america, and in locations that have been underserved for years. so this is going to make a dramatic effect on climates, but also our economy. >> harris: okay. no one sees that inflation part but you, not even john kerry. moving on. >> and we talk about naming a bill -- >> harris: house speaker nancy pelosi is the latest democrat to dodge a question about whether president biden should run for reelection in 2024. nancy pelosi now joining a growing list of democrats who been ducking the question. and at least two lawmakers outright said that he should not run again. the president on sunday said it's too early to make a decision, matt. >> yeah, jill biden duct the question too.

this is a really interesting question, harris. because you are going into this election which is right around the corner, and a nanosecond after that election, this question is does donald trump announce his run for the presidency, does someone else? and what does joe biden do? he has to have the answer. if joe biden does not run, then the question goes to kamala harris who has very irregular polling and does not seem to perform well on the stump. is that going to be the standard? a lot of people like me would like to see that. or will there be a shift? will they take the diversity pick up a vice president to move her off to the side and go grab someone like gavin newsom? it is an amazing political story to see unfolding. >> harris: it's interesting to see you put it like that. david, a few seconds left and you say what? >> democrats have a very big tent, and because if you democratic elected officials have not committed to supporting joe biden or saying someone else should run, i think he means very little. the fact is that --

>> harris: who could run, that is the question now? >> oh, i think it could be a candidate we don't even talk about right now. we have something like 774 days until the 2024 election, so we have some time. a lot can happen. but i think what is important that if biden keeps delivering, he will be in good position to get reelected in '24. >> harris: good to see yount c both.
