the weekend. >> bill: bengals won. >> sandra: okay. >> bill: that was a rocking two hours. we're landing the plane right now. dana is back tomorrow. sandra, thanks for being with us. harris takes over for the next hour on "the faulkner focus." >> harris: breaking news at narc is getting the world's attention. what is it ready to do next. ballistic missile over the nation of japan with potential to reach the united states territory. tension in the region and with america now. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." sirens blasting. leaders in japan urging citizens to take cover as nuclear armed

north korea sent a ballistic missile. it was not nuclear but has the capability to be that type of weapon. this one was not. but they told them that missile was flying over japan for the first time since 2017. the missile's range nearly 3,000 miles meaning north korea's weapons have the potential to reach us. at least the united states guam military base and beyond. the united states and south korea taking immediate action firing off two munition bombs in response. the two countries have been holding joint military exercises for the past ten days. today's missile test by north korea is the fifth since the drills began. retired four star general jack keane. >> it's been the most active year of firing missiles in north korea's history. what is really going on here? well, north korea is clamoring

for attention as they always have been by the tests and provocative language they use along with it. >> harris: for some like former ambassador nikki haley and others who called for toughness by the biden administration, this latest test just came after a visit by vice president kamala harris that might have disappointed some, at least the critics. she went to the region, got some unwanted attention for these blunders. >> so the united states shares a very important relationship with the republic of north korea and it is an alliance that is strong and enduring. >> harris: we do not have a healthy alliance with north

korea. one of the many corrections we could make there. the secretary of national security. i gave you an upgrade big time. jennifer griffin is live at the pentagon. i wish you were u.s. secretary of something, jennifer. >> thank you. u.s. officials assess this may have been the longest ballistic missile test fired from north korea yet. the first time in five years they've fired a ballistic missile over japan forcing japan to order its citizens to take cover in basements. the japanese prime minister condemned the launch. >> the ballistic missile firing by north korea was an outrageous act that was absolutely im permissible. we'll respond as soon as possible with the utmost vigilance. >> this missile is assessed to be an interimmediate missile.

in the air seven minutes and flew over northern japan for one minute before landing in the sea. causing no harm but sending shock waves to two countries. it suggests the latest missile flew an estimated 2500 miles over japan. the missile reached a height of over 600 miles. lloyd austin had just returned to washington, d.c. after meeting his japanese and australian counterparts in hawaii this weekend. the test, which u.s. officials could be a prelude to a nuclear test with kim jung un to coincide with the chinese party conference and the u.s. pacific commander to meet with japan's defense ministry official. the national security council put out a statement after jake sullivan spoke to his

counterparts in japan and south korea calling it a long range ballistic missile and confirming defense to the japan and south korea. >> harris: thank you. former white house press secretary ari fleischer. they have had that capability for quite some times but a rapid uptick how they are showing the world. >> i don't think it's a rapid upparticular. they are doing what militaries do. this one is illegal and against the united nations resolutions. they're testing their equipment to make sure it works. this is what north korea is doing proving they're a viable military threat. >> harris: they need five times in a row to do that. >> that's how militaries work. the problem with north korea is they are a threat and a nuclear threat. >> harris: we'll go to this. 35 days now exactly five weeks until the mid-term elections. new polling shows democrats are

losing major ground. new from gallup a scope of the favorability of the two political parties. when it comes to control of congress a new poll puts the gop ahead. 47% prefer republicans in control up from 43% in august. democrats calling from 50% wanting them in control a few months ago. house speaker nancy pelosi with a prediction. >> we will hold the house. we will hold the house. [cheers and applause] by winning more seats. we won the 40 seats, then we lost some when trump was on the ballot and lost some nft trump districts but we've held enough seats to hold the house with him on the ballot. he is not on the ballot now. did i say his name?

i didn't mean to. >> harris: okay. what do you take away from that? >> i can't wait to watch that clip the day after the election. it was a foolish thing for the speaker to say. the democrats have no chance of keeping the house. when we look back on this summer and the little blip where joe biden's polling numbers went from miserable to poor. they went from the mid to low 30s. it is true. that's the trend they went on. i think we'll look back and say the democratic trend was happily exaggerated by the mainstream media. the fundamentals of this election remain intact. the republicans will take the house, a 50/50 lineup to the senate. >> harris: you think it holds at 50/50? even though what is going on in wisconsin where johnson is pulling ahead and fetterman is falling behind of oz? >> i think it's a 50/50. jump ball in the senate.

if they ran the table they could get 55 seats. same thing for the democrats. actually democrats would have 54 if they run the table. the most realistic is republicans get 51 and democrats 49. i still call it a jump ball. >> harris: the same polling shows voters care more about economic issues. you don't need a poll for that. than they do for social ones. this is really bad news for democrats. they were banking on something different. inflation, crime, elections, jobs and immigration taking the first five spots for the mid-terms. i have had democrats tell me that the pickup for them in intensity they thought for voters was around abortion with roe v. wade at the u.s. supreme court level. they were really looking at that uptick and looking at gas prices coming down and helping out the president. you called it going from

miserable to poor. now they're back where they started. >> the reason that's the case. the most important thing is the president's approval rating. the president's approval rating, 42% today is on par with donald trump in 2018 when donald trump's party lost the house and senate. barack obama and clinton when they each lost the house and senate in the first mid-term election. 42% rating is poor. it's up from dismal but still poor. the problem the democrats have. they have an uptick in energy with women who sat out the election younger women because of roe v. wade. it is not enough to drown the historical trend of a first-year president's mid-term election in a bad economy with an unpopular president. that's the reality. >> harris: none of that can be changed in 35 days. interesting to here you call them the ds. like the nfl.

questions whether the president will make another bid for president in 2024. many in his own party have deflected when asked if the nearly 80-year-old commander-in-chief should give it another go but he apparently called al sharpton that he will run again at an event last month. that event happened before he had said this in a recent interview. >> president biden: it's much too early to make that kind of decision. look, my intention when i said to begin with is that i would run again but it is an intention. is it a firm decision that i would run again? that remains to be seen. >> harris: so al sharpton says at a private meeting following a d.c. event just recently the president said i'm going to do it again. i'm going to run again. they were the only two men in the room. i did a little research on this because i was curious.

al sharpton not always known for honesty. we'll see if he is right. >> he said he intends to run again. it doesn't matter what joe biden is saying in october. it matters what democrats are concluding after the november election. think about it. he will turn 80 in november and remains unpopular. democrats lose the house, possibly the senate. is there a democrat who wants to head into a presidential year as the economy tips into recession with an unpopular 80-year-old leading their ticket? the whole conversation is phony in october. the reality is democrats will turn against joe biden after the election and urge him not to run to save their own skin. this is the future that joe biden faces. >> harris: what happens to vice president, not that she is tremendously yoked to joe biden.

but really there hasn't been a lot of the two by two we saw at the beginning of the administration. >> president biden in january, february, march will announce he is not running for re-election. kamala harris will think it's hers. she has to stand on her own two feet and they're wobbly. she hasn't done a good job as vice president. she was one of the first the drop out of the primaries because she dropped out so early. i think she won't be in the equation. you'll have 20 to 30 democrats who step in to run and it will be a generational change for the democrats. that's healthy. i'm a big believer. primaries sort things out. democrats won't have joe biden at the helm. he is not going the run for re-election despite what he is saying now and certainly won't be kamala harris. we'll see who it will be. >> harris: 15 minutes after midnight on november 8th we'll have this conversation again. >> right.

>> harris: good to see you, thank you. democrat versus democrat when it comes to the border crisis. new york city's democratic mayor is going after the left for their silence after his city is having an influx of illegal immigrants. backlash for the vice president, c is aid is tied to equity should come into play with hurricane relief. >> they need you as the vice president of the country to inspire them, not to confuse them. >> harris: white house in damage >> harris: white house in damage control now. congresswo

♪ >> harris: country music icon loretta lynn has passed away. her family has confirmed that this morning at her home in tennessee. loretta lynn rose to fame in the 1960s launching a career that spanned six decades with hits like coal miner's daughter that we love so much. she became the first woman in history to win the country music association entertainer of the year trophy and won four grammys and received the presidentall medal of freedom. loretta lynn was 90 years old. here is a glimpse of the destruction of hurricane ian, houses now shells of what they

once were. rescue crews continue to sift through piles of debris now. officials estimate that hurricane ian killed at least 100 people. that number could continue to rise. nearly half million people still do not have the utilities they need, specifically electricity. and many thousands do not have clean drinking water. steve harrigan is live for us in arcadia, florida, with the latest on the rescue and mostly recovery efforts at this point is what we're reading, steve. >> that's exactly right, harris. we're 50 miles inland. this place did not get hit by the wind but 20 inches of rain. you can see what it does to some of the main roads here in this part of florida. a lot of limestone in the soil. some roads simply giveaway leading to this truck. people in the town of arcadia, some are completely cut off six

days after the storm hit. many of the people we talked to say they were just shocked by how quickly that water rose. >> some spots look like a bomb went off. but yeah, definitely worse than we expected. >> we had to come through with a boat. it was rough. we thought we were going to flip but thankfully we're here. >> a lot of those people we're talking to say they have no place to go. they don't have the money to leave and they are coming in and out by boat trying to get emergency supplies here that the police and national guard set up. water, meals ready to eat. diapers, gasoline and milk going in as people still commute to houses largely cut off by the water. harris, back to you. >> harris: thank you very much. that water was unbelievable this many days later. thank you, steve. wow. the white house running defense now for vice president kamala

harris. big backlash after she said hurricane aid would be equity based. suggesting race and income would play a factor. president biden's fema chief quickly denied that comment saying aid is available to all floridians. here is the white house press secretary on it. >> the vice president was clearly talking about long-term investment, not fema aid or hurricane response efforts. we are committed to quickly getting resources to all communities impacted, period, full stop. but we also know that some people, particularly in lower income communities, have a hard time accessing that help. >> harris: governor desantis whose campaign said the v.p.s remarks created undue panic. >> to play politics.

it is ridiculous and not appropriate. you don't have to politicize every single tragedy in this country. i tell you in florida, people are sick of the nonsense. they just want people to be helped. >> harris: congresswoman, republican of florida, member of the homeland security committee and ranking member of the response and recovery subcommittee. we've had talk about fema and aid and people in need. last time it was about baby formula. this time hurricane ian. your first thoughts when you heard the vice president of the united states make those comments. >> well good to see you, harris. honestly at this point i feel like the white house needs to hire mr. clean for their spokesperson because clearly all that job entails is cleaning up the mess of the president and the vice president. she needs to go back to the salad bar and rework her word salad as she has been known to

do. she is absolutely out of line to suggest that aid after this disastrous once in 500 year storm will be based on equity, race or socio- economic status. we're here for all americans. not just republicans or democrats, all americans. we're doing what good americans do. we're responding to our friends and neighbors in need. and it is just disgusting they would try to politicize this just as they tried to do that last friday when they sent $2 billion of fema money to the border. that is ridiculous on the same day that hurricane ian smacked my home state. it is a real shame, harris. >> harris: they are trying to clean up after -- throw good money after bad. that's now how you will solve what's happening at the border. if we thought that's all it would take americans would say okay, it's over. it wasn't over the next day and we had another disaster on our hands. new york city mayor eric adams

now going after the far left of his own party over the border crisis. it comes after his city for weeks now has seen bus loads of illegal immigrants sent from texas, 8100 since april. that number is like two days down at the border in one sector, the del rio sector. a drop in the bucket really compared to the estimated 600 encounters on the southern border now almost daily. watch together. >> the far right is doing the wrong thing. the far left is doing nothing. i mean, it's silence. i don't believe the silence i'm hearing. these are people in need of services and i am not hearing from the two ends of the spectrum. >> harris: a majority of florida voters say they support the transport of illegal immigrants away from the border. they are unindated along the

southern states, the southwestern states, they see part of the united states in pain. so they are now saying go ahead and do that. the poll weeks after was take weeks after desantis relocated migrants to massachusetts and new york. congresswoman, what is your reaction to how it is being handled on both sides of the aisle? >> i sound like a broken record but i go back to if you want to play stupid games you will win stupid prizes. mayor eric adams campaigned on a liberal, progressive agenda. he wanted those votes. he courted those votes and courted that base and it's what they've been asking for. now they are paying the price. for too long it's an issue so many around the country said it is at the border, not a big deal. 8100 is what the texas towns see in a day, two days maybe. so this is just a drop in the bucket. i fully support the desantis airlines program, honestly because what we know is that

this has turned every single town in america into a border town. everyone is outraged and shocked but when biden flies people around the country in the dead of night they have nothing to say. the hypocrisy of the left knows no bounds. as far as his comments that he has not heard anybody on the right talking about this issue, we have a plan to fix it. we have had that plan in place and speaker pelosi has refused to bring that legislation to the floor. the president has refused to secure the border. this is on the democrats' hands full stop. >> harris: imagine if the democrats had done what eric adams is talking about. what if they had done nothing and left those policies from the previous administration in place, we wouldn't be where we are now if they had done nothing. but they literally did the wrong thing. he still has a distance to go, a new york city mayor before he gets to that point. critics tearing into the democratic mayor of austin,

texas. cameras caught him sleeping during the funeral for fallen police officer tony martin who was killed in a car crash last month. nap time for mayor steve adler. the dude is out. he apologized to the officer's family in a statement after yesterday's service. adler slashed about a third of the austin police budget at the height of the defund movement. everybody is doing double and triple what they normally would be. showing up and staying awake at a funeral for a cop, you might want to do that. north to crime ridden new york city. we're back to the mayor again. the parents of a paramedic stabbed in broad daylight confronted mayor adams at their daughter's wake and heard demanding he get control of the city's spiraling crime crisis. lieutenant eling was stabbed 19 times during her lunch break in a random attack.

i know your husband is an emt and emergency services. you worry about him being out there. this is a democrat-led city problem mostly. >> yeah. think about this, harris. my husband today is preparing for swat training tomorrow and as we were going through preparing all his gear for today, i can't help but think of the families that are experiencing just the absolute disdain of the elected leadership of their cities. to fall asleep at a funeral is unacceptable. i can't imagine how their family must be feeling. my heart just breaks for them. excuse yourself out of the room or don't show up but to fall asleep shows your utter and total disdain for law enforcement. what gets to me is all of the communities around the country who have done it right, they have funded their police and supported their law enforcement and first responders, nancy pelosi punished them by

allocating and redistributing $8 billion to those communities that defunded their police. this is why it's so backwards. we have to get back to supporting the police and our first responders. there is no other way around it. we have to support the police. >> harris: we do. and, you know, you had such a great point there. he could just have skipped the whole event but that would look a lot like the policies he has put in place by taking money away from the very people that protect the citizens. congressman, thank you very much for being in "focus" always. wokeness may be making schools so easy for kids that it is nearly impossible to fail. one school district reportedly calling it, here is that word again, equity grading. a lot of parents aren't happy over this. equity grading. plus gas prices soaring again. have you seen them? president biden's blame game is ramping up. critics say less talk, more

>> harris: experts told us on this very program, including charles payne at fox business, the numbers will go right back up at the end of summer and they have. lower gas prices in some places in the country over the summer were a blip on the screen. they're up big time. californians staring down at an average price of over $six. nevada, oregon, alaska with averages of more than $five again. $seven a gallon in new jersey where i live for that diesel which affects the prices on so many things as our goods travel on those big rigs that need diesel. president biden tapped the national reserve earlier this year to lower the prices. now the reserve is at the lowest it's been since 1984. he better not tap that again.

it didn't help. a recent statement from energy secretary jennifer granholm says this is the time for american energy companies to take action to lower prices for consumers. these companies need to focus less on taking everyday last dollar off the table and more on passing through savings to their customers. someone give her a lesson on how it actually works. fox business stewart varney says things are out of hand. >> there comes a point where we object to paying for biden's green dreams. as i keep saying, this all started on day one of the administration when he ended america's energy independence. you do that, you put the price of oil up, you put the price of gas up. it's a geopolitical event. we're paying the price for that right now. >> harris: everybody sees our energy vulnerability. cash in on america. a "wall street journal" op-ed calls it opec's october oil surprise writing the biden

policies have created substantial regulatory uncertainty, raised production costs and directed capital to green energy. if gasoline prices rise before the november election the administration has its own policies to blame. power panel now, david avella, co- pack chairman and laura fink. i'll start where we are. predicted by many economists this was going to happen. gas prices go back up. >> the local price at the pump will be the most effective yard sign republicans could ever put up as we get ready for this fall election. harris, it's why you see in places like pennsylvania republicans are outpacing democrats 2-1 in party switches. it is why you see in places like philadelphia people are registering as republicans 10% more than democrats. in florida you have hispanic

voters giving the majority of their votes to ron desantis and marco rubio. and even in the state of oregon, a traditional democratic state, you see the republican nominee for governor leading in polls. it is because the biden administration has the most amount of misinformation that they have given to americans has been on gas prices and democrats can't defend it. >> harris: laura, we're all in this together. nobody gets to go to the pump and get a democrat or republican discount. what do democrats do right now? >> well, i was sad to see this morning, harris, that the great country music singer loretta lynn passed away and she said i ain't got much education but i got some sense. it takes sense to understand that the president doesn't control gas prices. jennifer granholm is right. the energy companies do. exxonmobile raking in $200

million a day in profit. using the opportunity to gouge consumers not -- we're talking even in florida during a hurricane. it is great that this administration is standing up to them and their record profits because they are banking on this crisis and they are using it. and regular americans understand that and they know that. they don't -- >> harris: regular americans go when they know to get their gas. >> we need to stand up to them. you're right, you're right. we need to lower -- >> harris: i haven't said anything yet but i could be right. regular americans know that when they go to the pump they see a mom and pop operation running the exxon or whatever it s. everybody else knows, in my neighborhood and all across my state. now we will edge our way back to where we were pre-summer above $seven a gallon and whatever they're carrying impacted by those diesel costs.

that's the cost of production and everything. we need more areas where we can produce. why hasn't the biden administration allowed more oil leases? i will toss this back to david and let you debate each other. >> that won't help the short term pump now. >> harris: nothing this administration has done has helped us short term. if you mean the summer that was too short term to count. >> hopefully laura. >> 99 state days of -- >> if biden could control them he would. he can't. the oil companies can't. >> harris: i want to give this back to david. >> them banking that money at the cost of those americans. >> similar to the president, democrats often forget what they said a mere six months ago. laura never acknowledged the fact it was congressional democrats that called the energy

producers in last year in a congressional hearings and told them to stop production, slow down production. we gave up our economic and national security by having this administration and congressional democrats say we would rather buy our fuel from people who don't like us. it is a simple supply and demand in the time of year when demand goes up, prices will go up. in a time when demand is down prices go down. unfortunately, for many americans as they get ready to go into the winter months and need to buy home fuel they will pay higher prices. it is because this administration has no idea been as dishonest of any issue on gas prices. >> you stand up for the corporations. where are the republicans that fight the root cause of this. corporate america is profits. >> harris: you said 99 and i

said 45. you are talking about the days when it was -- you will talk the entire time i talk. are you counting the days it was a penny, to two pennies to three. when we were looking at a $less, that sort of thing. it was short lived. every economist was saying it will go back up. he has tapped into vulnerability. people outside the country and know they can sell at any price for the u.s. we a weak and not making our own products any more. >> they also acknowledge the president doesn't control gas prices. i think loretta lynn would agree. >> in the summer when gas prices came down this president went out and said it was my policies that brought gas prices down. you can't have it both ways. either the president does impact policy or he doesn't. >> harris: let's leave it there. >> where were you giving him credit for that? >> harris: he was giving himself credit and blaming everybody

else. laura and david, good to see you both. thank you very much. always a spuristed conversation. president biden making a bizarre claim during his visit to puerto rico. >> president biden: i was sort of raised in the puerto rican community at home politically. we came here for a long time. >> harris: raised in puerto rican community politically. what does that mean? those remarks while looking at hurricane fiona damage yesterday. twitter mockery next. 're provids to investing, with low-cost options to help maximize savings. from the plains to the coasts, we help americans invest for their future. and help communities thrive.

>> harris: president biden went to puerto rico yesterday to view some of the devastation from hurricane fiona and he told a story has many people scratching their heads again. >> president biden: we have a very irrelevant term for the large puerto rican population in delaware. i was sort of raised in the puerto rican community at home politically. we came here for a long time both for business and pleasure. i'm committed to this island. >> harris: twitter users teed off. why is the left so thirsty for the hispanic community?

another, biden went to puerto rico and told him he is puerto rican, too. raymond arroyo is here. i notice that doctor jill biden looked off as he said those words. i don't know if they caught her off guard but they caught a lot of people off guard. >> remember, this is a man who unlike loretta lynn claimed he was a coal miner's grandson. he claims at one point that he was a civil rights warrior and now he is a puerto rican. look, by this map i'm a jazz musician and a james beard qualifying chef just because i have met a few people in these communities don't make me a member of one. there is a good reason that joe biden even made this trip to puerto rico before he went to florida, by the way. which is hurricane damage as you

you know and have been reporting. it's because of votes. the democratic party is bleeding hispanic voters right now. when you talk to hispanic people as i do regularly they'll tell you, even long-time democrats are leaving the party because of the policies. not only the inflation but the cultural issues as well, abortion, the gender reassignment surgeries, all of that is alien to hispanic voters. democrats are down 20 points. now they are still up in a lot of these match-ups, they still get a percentage of the hispanic vote. but if the republicans eat enough of that vote and they are now, it will damage their prospects in the mid-terms. that's why joe biden is trying to be a puerto rican. >> harris: how does this help? puerto ricans, i don't understand, when you look at their territorial right, they are a territory of ours, not the 51st state. how does going there and flexing in that direction help him out?

>> it is virtue signaling to the mainland trying to resonate in the mainland. if you listened to him over the weekend he said we need a hispanic american museum on the mall. it is virtue signaling to buy votes. it is all about political power. joe biden is about as much puerto rican as he is polish, give me a break. >> harris: i see what you mean in terms of the mall thing. putting up a museum. do whatever you want to do for all americans who come to this country or were born here. whatever the thing is we want to do to respect. can you not flex that during a political season? can you do that maybe another time? raise money for that even as a civilian once you have stopped being the commander-in-chief. a whole host of ideas how he could make a difference and not make it look political. country music legend loretta lynn passed away today at 90

years old. her career was six decades. i sent my team, city of or leans. such a beautiful song. your thoughts today. >> i grew up listening to loretta lynn. my parents saw her many times. she was part of the sound track of my life. what a ground-breaking she was. the first female to be named entertainer of the year by the academy of country music. more importantly she spoke and sang so authentically, harris. when you listen to her at the very beginning and even her last two albums i'm still woman enough and full circle where she revisited a lot of her hits, that voice, that powerful ringing appalachian sound of the church and the yearning of people in the country. it was so passionate. it was so raw. and she spoke and wrote --

that's the amazing thing. she wrote most of her own hits. it be spoke women's experience at that time about love, heartache, divorce. she got into controversial social issues but reflected the time and the hearts of so many men and women in the country. the first lady of country music doesn't begin to touch her iconic status. everyone in country music owes her a great debt. the honesty and earnestness of her expression is really unmatched. look, 70 years. to sing for 70 years as well at the end of the career as she did at the beginning and end. >> harris: she spoke and she wrote. some of the great artists we know are able to put what they love to lyrics and when they sing it in their own voices it makes us pause. we pause today in our memory of loretta lynn. appreciate you talking in that way about it. you know so much about so many

things. i did not know your love of country music. >> i do love it. we were just at the opri and introducing my kids to her and conway twitty and others i grew up listening to. legends. thank you for having me on. >> harris: let's listen to loretta lynn on our way out to "outnumbered."enter ♪
