>> the cookie store is only open three days. around the corner. best cookie ever. >> i will tell you what it's like on radio. >> see you tomorrow. >> bill: 9:00 in new york. momentum building for republicans on several key issues. will it be enough to take back congress? we'll find out soon enough. i hope you had a great weekend. bill hemmer, good morning. >> dana: did you forget who you were? >> bill: sometimes i have to think. >> dana: i'm dana perino, this is "america's newsroom." great to be back here with you. we have just two weeks to go until election day. new polling shows republicans are more trusted to handle the concerns most important to voters. the gop securing double digit leads on inflation, gas prices, crime, and the economy.

>> bill: border security another big issue. if you missed the news over the weekend top democrats want you to believe the border is secure. new numbers prove that's far from reality. we'll bring those to you in a moment here. >> dana: despite the disconnect president biden and house speaker nancy pelosi say they're op at the mystic on election day. >> back and forth, us ahead, back and forth. the polls are all over the place. i think that we're going to see one more shift back to our side in the closing days. >> i don't have any time to dwell on our not winning the house. so that is so scary, i agree with you. there is reason to be scared when you hear that. but the fact is that we full eye intend to win. was i not clear? we are going to win this election. >> bill: peter doocy kicks off a new week from the north lawn. good morning. the president speaks at the democratic national committee

in a few hours. what is his message? >> at this point, bill, president biden is use hoping that mid-term voters have some patience with him. >> president biden: a lot of what we've done and we've passed has not kicked in yet. for example, you know, we have all this money to rebuild the highways, bridges, internet, etc. it will take time. it is not all happening overnight like we passed a law and all of a sudden the highways and bridges are all functioning. >> the white house has been hoping that debate over abortion access will keep younger voters engaged in the process. senator bernie sanders is worrying that their side has a problem brewing with turnout. >> i am worried about the level of voter turnout among young people, working people voting democratic. again, what democrats have got to do is contrast their economic plan with the

republicans. >> another issue this white house is hoping will keep young voters engaged is student loan debt forgiveness. president biden claimed in an interview with now this news that his loan forgiveness plan passed the senate by a vote or two. that's incorrect. it never went to the senate for a vote. republicans say they think this election will be more about issues that affect everybody, namely inflation. >> the dollar you held at the start of the biden administration is only worth 88.3 cents. if you had a nest egg of $100,000 as a senior on fixed income it is only worth $88,300 before the devall waition of the market becauseed by biden's recession. skyrocketing crime. flood of deadly drugs, high gas prices. those are the main issues. >> there were no political events for the president over the weekend and today he will have a rare political address but not in front of any

persuadeable voters. will he instead go address a dnc staff meeting in washington, d.c. bill. >> bill: thank you very much. marc thiessen, fox news contribute for, former speech writer for president george w. bush. we were going through a couple of things this morning. monmouth poll number two, guys. do you show the majority of voters think biden is ignoring your top concerns. has biden given more or enough attention to the issues most important to your family? 63% said we should be giving more and stan greenburg, biden's wrs t performing message in memos,. he is imploring the party shut up about the work it's done. voters actively turn against democrats when they hear it. they know what the problems are so address that. >> biden said in the clip his plans haven't kicked in yet.

the american rescue plan sure has kicked in and unleash the worst inflation in four decades. americans are feeling it. stan greenberg is correct. one of the principles of presidential communications i learned as a white house speech writer if the president says things that are directly contradicted by the lived reality of americans people tune him out and turn against him. if the president goes out and says the economy is strong as hell. most americans look at him and polls show 78% of americans say it's doing poorly. 73% say it's getting worse. 71% said they have to cut back spending and over 2/3 blame biden. when biden says the economy is strong as hell and they think what planet are you living on? i'm going to have to choose between heating my home and paying the rent and you are talking about the great job you've done and all the things you passed? it makes people think this guy is completely out of touch and

that's putting aside the cognitive impairment issues he showed in the interview lately. on pure politics of what his messaging is he is out of touch. >> dana: the big discussion i assume after the election around the holidays will he, will he run again? you mentioned that interview on msnbc. let's play a bit of it. >> president biden: the reason i'm not making a judgment about formally running or not running. once a make that judgment a whole series of regulations kick in and i have to be -- i treat myself as a candidate from that moment on. i have not made that formal decision but it is my intention to run again. we have time to make that decision. >> dana: okay, not a lot of time, marc. >> he is not running again. if he were to run again he would be challenged. if this -- if the polls are right and the shift going to the republicans is such that the red wave is coming back and gaining strength and this -- there is no chance of the democrats will nominate him

again for a second term. they'll say you passed your american rescue plan, got the inflation reduction act and the climate spending ever, time to declare victory and step aside. the problem the democrats have is they have nobody to replace him with. if you think bit, why was joe biden chosen to be the nominee in 2020? it wasn't because peopled loved him, he was the least worst candidate. he was the only person in that field who could appeal to moderates, swing voters who didn't like trump but didn't like the leftward lurch of the democratic party. he said he would end is chaos and bring us together. he failed in doing that. who replaces him to do that? it's not kamala harris who is less popular than him. not bernie sanders or gavin newsom. gretchen whitmer is the covid lockdown queen. if you look through the list of potential candidates, there is no centrist, moderate who could

possibly do that. those are the voters who will deliver the election to the republicans in november. they went to the democrats and they are swinging back. >> bill: that answer got worse if you listen to the next 15 seconds of it. he asked what does your wife think about it and it was just a stammer and stutter and a pause. marc, nice to see you on a monday. nice to start the week with you. thank you. >> same to you. >> dana: also hear alarming new data as the border crisis is one of the top issues for voters in the mid-terms. customs and board are patrol announced agents arrested nearly 2.4 million migrants over the past 12 months. that's the highest level ever recorded in a fiscal year. another record more than 227,000 migrants were stopped last month. we'll have much more on this coming up with former border patrol chief rodney scott. >> bill: in the classroom a grim report on the impact of interrupted learning during the pandemic. the nation's report card showing a major drop in fourth

and eighth grade reading scores and the worst ever declines in math. mark meredith is on the story in washington it runs deep, mark, good morning. >> good morning. the new report confirms what so many people long suspected. school closures and prolonged remote learning had a swied spread and negative impact on america's kids. the national center compared math and reading scores of 446,000 students in fourth and eighth grade. in terms of math comprehension fourth grade scores dropped five points compared to 2019. an even steeper decline in eighth grade math scores with students scoring eight points lower. it may impact an entire generation of kids. if left unaddressed, this could alter the trajectory and life opportunities of a whole cohort of young people reducing their abilities to pursue rewarding careers in math, science and

technology. when it comes to reading the government also found a 3.drop in fourth and eighth grade students compared to 2019. miguel cardona the scores reflect the pandemic's impact on kids and calling the results unacceptable. >> this is not a wake-up call for us to double down our efforts and improved indication, even before it was, i don't know what will. we need to make sure we're utilizing the arp dollars to help students if reading and math. >> this goes beyond the classroom and likely to impact the mid-term elections. we've heard from so many republican candidates accusing the administration and democrats of supporting these prolonged school closures much longer than necessary and likely this report will bring the education issue right back to the front and center of this debate before the election. >> bill: sure will. mark meredith in washington >> dana: fox news alert. britain's form financial chief

rishi sunak is set to be the next british prime minister. alex hogan is live in london with a quick update. >> good morning. this is some big breaking news in england today. rishi sunak said to be the next prime minister after a weekend really of going through all of the ministers trying to get the 100 votes needed. he surpassed that number and earlier this morning the only other candidate running against dropped out of the race. rishi sunak formerly served as finance minister and 42 years old. the clear frontrunner in the conservative party over the weekend and even though he has faced a lot of criticism specifically around his wealth, much of the public say he is almost out of touch. because of his wealth he doesn't understand the day-to-day struggles that many brits are facing. but despite that the conservative party just several minutes ago confirmed the news that he will be the next prime

minister of england. now, there was, of course, a lot of criticism leading up to this of what it means for the conservative party. this will be the third prime minister in just four months. and rischy was part of a leadership contest that took place a couple of months ago against liz truss. he came out on top this time but have a difficult job not only of changing the economy here in england but also trying to rally the conservative party and get them back on track. >> dana: they have a black slate to start with today with a new prime minister. thank you, alex. >> deal with that perception and the actual crime. we have 3.5 million people using the subway system. we have to be honest about that. those average of six crimes a day is not giving the impression our system is out of control. >> bill: new york city mayor eric adams saying the rise in subway crime is not really a

rise in subway crime. why did he announce more cops would patrol the trains. what it takes to make a difference. >> dana: legal setback for the student loan hand-out. what's next for the borrowers who already applied. >> bill: save the planet, trash a picture. it happened again. olution. it's your powerful va home loan benefit. it lets you borrow up to a full 100% of your home's value, not just 80%. with home values near record highs, that could mean a lot more cash than you imagined. and at newday, there are no upfront costs to get the cash you need. when dehydration gets real... hey! that's mine. i'll buy you a pony.

>> bill: a u.s. appeals court blocking a program days after millions of borrowers started applying john line. edward lawrence at the white house. can you figure it out? >> the order from the court of

appeal says the stay will look at the ruling. the white house is saying apply for debt relief even though the plan has paused. the press secretary said a temporary order does not prevent borrowers from applying for student debt relief at student aid.gov and we encourage people to apply. joni ernst says he is turning -- >> it is not student loan forgiveness, it is not debt forgiveness, it is debt transference. we have many hard working iowans picking up the tab for young people now who signed on the dotted line that they would repay these student loans. those hard working taxpayers are now picking up the tab for all of those other folks.

>> not backing off the $400 billion plan for student loan forgiveness saying increased taxes will pay for it. >> president biden: we can afford this. we can afford this. one of the things we did in order to pay for a lot of these things is rethought it was about time that some of the super wealthy corporations pay their fair share. >> from the white house perspective it is important right before the mid-term elections to tap into the student vote and student passion. >> bill: all right. thank you. see how the website goes. >> dana: the president said this. watch here. >> president biden: you just get $10,000 written off. it is passed. i got it passed by a vote or two and it's in effect. >> dana: i don't know if they took a vote in the roosevelt room. this was not voted on in congress, which is one of the concerns that people have. congress is the one that controls the purse strings. they didn't get a say in this and it would not have passed

congress and why they will have trouble in court. >> bill: listen to this reporting by edward lawrence. watch it in the weeks to come. i think they ask the question you are on your honor. so i guess you can apply and the government will be there for you. maybe. >> dana: remember covid fraud. >> bill: i remember that. the healthcare deal 12 years ago. >> dana: good memory. want to talk about this as well. even more violence in new york city's subway system over the past 48 hours. a man shoved onto the tracks in an unprovoked attacked and 14-year-old girl stabbed in the arm. hochul and adams are promising safe subway. some say the timing is political. let's bring in former police commissioner kelly. call for number one shows the change of crime on the subways up 41%. just last monday the mayor said that that is not a perception problem. it is not real.

then by friday night they were announcing 1200 more cops to patrol the subways. let's get your take, sir. >> i hope it works. over time it is not a laughing solution. i think the transit bureau needs more police officers. it is certainly not a perception. we've had 22 murders in the transit system since march of 2020. we've had nine this year. and people are frightened, no question about it. the mayor says 3.5 million people ride the system every day. that's correct. it used to be 6 million, though, prior to the pandemic. so people are afraid and we need much more, i think, robust response on the part of the administration to get people's sense of safety back. >> dana: i wonder how they will staff this. call for number two. so far in 2022, 3,54 officers

have retired, up 42% from last year. the end of 2022 estimate is 4,000 officers. that's a rate not seen since post 9/11 exodus and as i understand it, sir, nypd's budget was cut by 3%. the additional 1200 would be paid in overtime costs? >> yes, actually it's a separate budget for overtime and nypd goes over it every year. but over time is ultimately debilitating. you can only do so many overtime tours. it affects the physical well-being of the police officers. there is a real problem with the exodus of cops leaving. it has been going on now for the last 2 1/2 years. the department is hiring police officers, but not at a rate that they want. it is much below what is needed to sort of restaff the ranks.

>> dana: if these additional 1200 officers come onto sun ways and they arrest somebody when they see something, can they have assurance that the very person they arrest one day won't immediately just be back out because of the prosecutor, alvin bragg, sending them back out, no cash bail and they have to arrest them over and over again? >> right. certainly no guarantee of that. the no cash bail created a real problem. new york state is the only state where judges don't have the ability to make a determination on individual's dangerousness whether or not they should be kept incarcerated. so that's a big problem and as you said, the district attorney, alvin bragg in particular, is noted for letting people go for really horrendous crimes. look at the individual with the axe in the mcdonalds. he was let go that evening.

threatening all sorts of people and that's what we're experiencing here in new york. the district attorneys are part of the problem. >> dana: peter doocy asked the president friday about crime as an issue and the president biden said i think it is a real issue. we have a great record on it. i think that the voters would beg to differ certainly here in the city indeed. thank you for your expertise and glad you came on the show today. >> thank you, dana. >> bill: 25 past. what we're watching on the map coming up here. potential upsets in several mid-term races. which ones will crack? we'll take a look at that coming up here. an alarming rise in rest pri tear illness. what is it about and what it means entering the flu season? >> all of a sudden our volumes have gone way up. we're very busy in the emergency room increasing wait times. we're sometimes caring for people in the hallways and wherever we can squeeze them in.

>> bill: a sleeper race. patty murray's lead over her republican lead said to be shrinking. they faced off on the debate stage on sunday. >> i will fight every day to make sure that we never allow those people who continued the big lie, including my opponent on her website before she changed it. >> do you believe that me and my family are a threat to democracy, senator murray? tell everyone here today, either that or disavow your campaign's dangerous rhetoric that has sent millions of dollars to attack and paint me as someone i am not. i am here to unify, to bring us together, to serve this country. >> bill: washington state is not elected a republican to the

senate since 1994. watch that race. >> it's the elephant in the room having a stroke. in fact, let's be very clear to everybody that's here, there is a monitor right now using captioning so i can fully understand everything in terms of from hearing. i would remind people that, you know, half of americans use captioning when they watch television. >> dana: pennsylvania lieutenant governor and senate candidate john fetterman addressing concerns about his health after suffering a stroke last may. getting ready for his first and only debay with dr. oz tomorrow night. he is defending his record as four-term mayor, old steel town he said he built back up. bryan llenas is live in harrisburg with more on that. >> good morning. john fetterman's political career is built on 13 years as mayor of braddock, pennsylvania. his political ads proclaim he

rebuilt braddock. he lives there and has tattoos of the zip code and the dates marking when someone was murdered in town. his campaign points out under fetterman no murders for five years, local supporters say he brought affordable housing investment and community center. >> i was here when braddock was real down and so yes, there was growth under his administration, i feel there was. >> he set up the program where, you know, kids can study to get their ged. >> built up the morale. >> dana: not where he wanted to be. >> the statistics tell a different story. the population of braddock dropped 40% to 1700 people. poverty rate increased and violent crime went up. more abandoned properties than viable businesses in braddock.

they gave fetterman a shot scoff at the notion he rebuilt braddock. >> i don't know what jobs he brought. what did he build back? >> a chance to do it over again i probably wouldn't have come here. >> it never happened. >> when he ran for mayor, he was all hopes that he would bring it back. that i think he just used it as a stepping stone. >> is braddock back? >> no, drive down the streets and look. >> it's not his fault. >> as mayor he was absent at city council meetings and as the lieutenant governor the associated press reported he was often absent from state business here in harrisburg on top of all that we know the report according to the campaign, they called it misleading. >> dana: all right.

>> bill: big debate in pennsylvania tomorrow night. everybody will be watching. a look at the house races right now, dana. so many times there are these races that we never really get a chance to look at. we mentioned this about two weeks ago in rhode island th. is competitive alan fung is a former mayor of cranston. it's on our raid -- radar this year. how few times do we click on the tabs? it doesn't happen a lot. rhode island, this is connecticut. a big push in the western part of the state. show you george logan now running a pretty good campaign. we'll see whether or not it breaks that way. connecticut is a really tough state for republicans to compete it but it appears on paper right now they're doing it because of the issues and what is happening given the governance of democrats in washington and on behalf of joe biden. here is another one. late into the night, okay,

don't take your eye off washington state a moment ago, don't take your eye off portland and salem. these congressional nation we're watching that with mike erickson here and a lot of these districts are redrawn and very progressive candidates. that might be the flavor for the political vote in oregon or maybe people are starting to see what is happening in portland can't continue and oregon four as it stretches to the west coast. a few of them. i could spend an hour here and show you two dozen more races. all of these races in many ways are considered toss-ups or if they are leaning democrat some of the pollsters now are starting to push them or pull them into the center lane. we'll watch that 15 days out. more with you. >> dana: let's bring in rnc chairwoman ronna mcdaniel. you've been around the country. is there a moment you felt this

is going to republicans' way right now? >> yeah, i've been everywhere, georgia, north carolina, pennsylvania, just in nevada and colorado. listen, i feel it everywhere, dana. the momentum is on our side. our volunteers are fired up and seeing it in early voting as well. i had an event with oz where i felt he talked about fentanyl and a mom raised the picture of her daughter who just died of fentanyl. it solidified that republicans are talking about the issues that are mattering and hitting home for voters. democrats are continuing to miss the mark. >> dana: fentanyl, talk about fentanyl in the colorado race, the house race there. >> so fentanyl in the house race. our candidate is running against a democrat who voted to legalize fentanyl in the state senate. it is so dangerous. they have had a 42% increase in

fentanyl coming into colorado. it is really dangerous, a big issue in that state and it will be one of the key issues in that house seat which is a pickup seat for the republican party and bash kirk meier is a great candidate, dairy farmer. a strong seat for us to pick up. >> bill: you are touring with rick scott all over the country hitting a ton of states. we talk a lot about what appears to be good news for republicans. but yet in some of the polling three of the four congressional districts in iowa said to be contested. i don't know why. maybe explain that. in the early voting in georgia african-american turnout said to be substantial. does it concern you? what does it say to you and how do you look at both of those states iowa and georgia? >> i look at iowa, we knew henson would have a tough race trying to take on axne. we have a great candidate. i think iowa is solid. you have chuck grassley and kim

reynolds there. outlier polls that are just not hitting the mark there. georgia, yes, early voting is up. first of all totally showed that joe biden and stacey abrams were lying when they were saying these laws were jim crow 2.0. you have record turnout in early voengt. the energy is on the republican side and numbers we're seeing and african-american voters we think are coming out for her shell. >> dana: bernie sanders doesn't feel good about that. >> i am worried about the level of voter turnout among young people and working people who will be voting democratic. crime is a real issue. violence is a real issue. this drug problem and the violence drug causes is a huge problem all over this country. >> dana: we cover these issues every day. not until recently the democrats even started talking

about this. >> i'm stunned to hear him say that. the latter half of the conversation should be it's being caused by democrats. they support cashless bail, open border, fine with defunding the police. this is what they've been pushing and now the aftermath of these dangerous policies and people are waking up. democrats have chosen to ignore these issues but they can't ignore what voters are dealing with every day worried about riding the subway, worried about stores being looted and democrats time and time again have been pro criminal and what is hurting fetterman and barnes in his race in wisconsin. >> bill: do you have an hour? >> i would love to talk for an hour. i love this stuff. >> bill: thank you for your time. talk down the road. 20 minutes before the hour. judge ruling fauci and psaki must give depositions in a lawsuit over big tech. halloween is not safe from

sizebet you do that. >> no, was that based on my generous spirit or my physique? >> dana: the spirit. also because you want kids to have fun. >> i do. i'm very pro-halloween. >> dana: it is expensive. >> they crushed us on inflation. candy prices are through the roof. for the kids out there doing it, halloween is your super bowl if you are a kid. i'll be darned if i will ruin the kids' super bowl. i'm buying the full size snickers but i'm taking a beatdown to do it. i made the mistake one year of just putting out the bowl. put out the bowl and i'll put out smaller candy. what happens is kids are taking the same volume anyway. they take two instead of one if you shrink it. i can't sign for it is what i'm saying. >> when i was growing up my mom and i used to sit on our front

porch wearing a mask and sit there and wait for the kids to come all night. >> what did you do on halloween? kidding. there, one shot at hemmer. we love you. >> dana: we never gave out full size. i'm sure we had crunch bars, maybe thousand dollar 10,000. 100,000 dollar bar. >> now its 123,000. >> dana: i do think. i'm sure we gave out the sun maid raisins. >> you could be prosecuted for yellow raisins on halloween. >> dana: little raisins. you know the tiny box of sun maid? i know, this is true confession. >> bill: nutter butter or payday. >> dana: nutter butter for sure. >> bill: the ones they make today, i think they took half the good stuff out. >> that's what they did. >> dana: watch here, jimmie.

. >> bill: hospitals are overcapacity taking care of kids. there is a nationwide surge of rsv. dr. nicole saphier is here. nice to see you, good morning. symptoms on screen. runny nose, coughing, sneezing, fever, wheezing, decrease in appetite. all the usual suspects.

is there something distinct about this, doctor? >> that's right, bill. it is cold, flu, covid season. things are in school, temperatures dropping and people are indoors. rsv is making headlines. why? usually you see a rise in rsv closer to december, january, february. it is making its rise earlier this year. why is that, i don't know? maybe kids' immune systems are down. good news, rsv causes the common cold in the far majority of people including adults and most children. there are some children at risk for rsv particularly those under the age of two and who are born prematurely or have heart and lung problems. just about every child by the age of 2 will be exposed to rsv. just make sure your child is as healthy as possible. hopefully they don't get any of the severe symptoms that come along with it.

>> bill: tips. breast feed, don't allow people to smoke around your kid. limit exposure to childcare and other places with lots of children and avoid contact with sick people. some of that i guess is easier said than done, doc. >> absolutely. these are common sense things. we all know as parents and physicians, we know going into the cold, flu and covid season your child will probably going to get sick. avoid sick contacts and it's difficult for some people to avoid childcare settings but that's where you'll see the most amount of school and childcare settings. stay in communication with their children's physician and likely they will have simple cold systems but can cause wheezing and more severe symptoms that resemble asthma. just stay on top of things. >> bill: is this a one and done sickness. you get it and get over it, or not? >> tell me, bill, have you only had one an done common cold or

do you the end to get them over and over again? rsv is one of those. no, no, don't even try. i know you may that that healthy robust person. like most colds with rsv just because you get it doesn't mean you won't get it again. probably get it again. >> bill: i didn't mean like you would never get it again. once a season, once a year, once you get it your body builds up immunity and you are good to go? >> well, no, you can get it multiple times a season but you do have some of that protective immunity shortly after the infection. it is possible to get it multiple times a year. >> bill: i don't like that. all right, doc, keep an eye on it. rsv, we're learning as we go. nice to see you nicole saphier, thank you. >> thanks for having me. >> dana: president biden will tell you the border is secure but a visit to the border, which he has never done, might force him to change his tune.
