tomorrow, lawrence, you will be in pennsylvania. >> dana: redding, pennsylvania, i'll post links on my social media. breakfast with friends 6:00 to 9:00 a.m. >> you'll be asking about the debate. >> what will they say? probably the same we've been saying all morning. >> see you tomorrow, everyone. >> bill: thank you, guys, let's get to it. blockbuster debate night in the books. prime time bout in p.a. may have been a game changer. i'm bill hemmer and we begin. >> dana: i'm dana perino and this is "america's newsroom." lots of debates last night. you watched three of the big ones. >> i'm that much of a nerd. >> dana: because we're less than two weeks from election day. control of the senate hangs on four races. >> democrats hoping john fetterman can flip the seat blue making it harder for republicans to take control.

complicating that effort, however, is fetterman's ongoing recovery from a stroke last may. >> dana: health concerns front and center as fetterman and oz clashed on everything from inflation to crime. >> let's also talk about the elephant in the room. i had a stroke. he has never let me forget that. this campaign to me is about fighting for everyone in pennsylvania that ever got knocked down. >> there was a lady in beaver county who told me with fear in her heart she wanted to provide food for her son's chicken she wanted and couldn't afford it. i can make the difficult decisions as you do in the operating room as a surgeon and cutting our budget as well to make sure we don't have to raise taxes on a population already in pain from the high inflation rate. >> he has 10 mansions. he must push back against corporate greed. we must make sure that we're

also pushing back against price gouging. >> fetterman has been trying to get as many murderers out of jail as possible. he does it without the rest of the payroll board agreeing or without families on board. >> i believe i run on my record on -- i am the only person of the sage successful about pushing back against gun violence and being the community more safe. >> bill: a sample of what happened over the hour last evening. the moment of the night may have been the exchange we're about to play on fracking. the moderator confronted fetterman on what appears to be an evolving stance over the past five years plus. >> i absolutely support fracking. >> there is a 2018 interview that you said i don't support fracking at all. how do you square the two? >> i do support fracking and --

i don't -- i don't -- i support fracking and i stand and i do support fracking. >> bill: one thing to keep in mind with the audience. you didn't see it. there are two giant monitors above each moderator and fetterman is required to read the text that goes by on that monitor. >> dana: it was the accommodation made to help him there. steven law who runs mcconnell's big pac have said if the republicans win in pennsylvania they'll win the majority. the stakes are super high and why everybody was watching it. bryan llenas has more from harrisburg, pennsylvania. good morning, bryan. >> that's exactly right. the stakes could not be higher going into last night's debate. john fetterman has consistently reminded voters of that saying elect him and he would be the 51st vote in the senate to enact and codify abortion rights as well as to enact progressive legislation. last night dr. oz confronted him on that. listen. >> he wanted to bust the

filibuster which means removing the brakes on the senate overreacting. >> that's true. that is true. >> if you do that you will free up the democrats in the senate without getting the normal amount of votes to expand the supreme court, add more states, do things that are detrimental to the well-being of the country. >> this morning there are more questions, not less about fetterman's health and fitness for office following his performance described as halting and muddled. he is recovering from a stroke suffered in may and has auditory processing issues last night refused again to release his full medical records. >> i didn't hear you say you would release your full medical records. why not? you have 30 seconds. >> my doctor believes i'm fit to serve and that's where i'm standing. >> this morning democrats are touting this exchange on

abortion. >> i want women, doctors, local, political leaders letting the democracy that allowed our nation the thrive to put the best ideas forward so states can decide for themselves. >> if you believe the choice of your reproductive freedom belongs with doctor oz you have a choice. if you believe it's between you and your doctor, that's what i fight for. >> heading into the debate the oz campaign tried to lower expectations conceding fetterman would likely lose citing poor debate skills and his health and his campaign last night said he dom naitd. >> he is doing his recovery in public for quite some time. a guy just in the hospital months ago, took it to dr. oz pretty hard tonight. >> after the debate fetterman's campaign said that live closed captioning with riddled with

delays are terrors. the television said it works fully as intended. >> bill: dana, over on the board want to take you through what's happening in pennsylvania not just this year but going back six years. this is what we believe is the most reliable poll from usa today that happened a month ago. they've been voting by mail now for weeks at a time and fetterman had a six-point advantage there. margin of error here is 4.4. you could move these numbers whichever way you like. basically that's a toss-up. i'll get to that in a moment. presidential data going back two years ago, presidential level biden and trump, here is what it was. difference of 81,000 votes in 2020 over what, 7 million votes cast between the two. razor thin margin there. the senate race from six years ago was super tight as well. why is there so much attention on pennsylvania? this is a what if scenario we put together between democrats

and republicans, where we think the state of the race might be, okay? this is the battle that will happen two weeks from yesterday. here is your starting marker, republicans at 49 seats, democrats at 47. you see the gold states there, yellow gold? there are four of them now. two out west, one here in the southwest georgia and here is pennsylvania. if you look at this, dana, try to smash all these scenarios together, democrats can prevent republicans in all likelihood if they win the lace in pennsylvania. conversely, if republicans win it, it shows a clear path for a majority in the senate for this campaign this year, okay. six years ago this is patrick toomey. he won reelection. retired this year. that's what left the seat open. this is razor tight even six years ago. pennsylvania still a battleground in 2022 as we're about to find out when an

excellent panel now. >> dana: a national political reporter for "the washington examiner" and a columnist for the philadelphia inquirer and a host of the radio show. selena, you have written about fetterman on the campaign trail. you have been watching and seeing. what are you hearing from people you talk to in pennsylvania that watched the debate last night? >> yesterday i pulled up to the debate and it was a tent with a bunch of journalists and i thought i won't get a real answer watching it from a tent. so i went to a bar and i just sat back and watched people. what was most interesting to me is watching voters that had not really understood the condition of the lieutenant governor. and it was really a surprise to them. voters don't watch politics with the same intensity and scrutiny that we do. and so it was a very revealing

-- this one gentleman said to me, this is why i'm glad i don't early vote because you don't really realize all the things that can come out before election day. and you saw -- i saw a lot of democrats not saying that they would maybe vote for oz, but that they would probably sit on their hands in this senate race in pennsylvania. >> bill: jennifer, the philadelphia inquirer, how the staff weighed in on it. this is contributors and writers. they scored it out of 10, 4.3 for fetterman and 4.1 for dr. oz. how did you score it? >> yeah. well, i scored it quite differently and appreciative they allow an alternative voice that i am at the philadelphia inquirer. oz won the debate and the reasons are very clear. he was able to go into policy

and give a vision for what he believes and how it would help pennsylvania and able to pull from his campaign across the state where he did a strategy on the campaign small, intimate gatherings as opposed to rallies able to bring forward the stories of pennsylvanians into the debate personalizing policy views and a forward-looking vision. fetterman struggled with his disability but his biggest liability was being to the left of joe biden and the democrats who were also on the stage that night. what oz opened with, not being shown as much, is talking about wanting to show-and it is resonating with people in pennsylvania and will matter as much as anything and oz showed it in the debate. >> it's really interesting. dr. oz was really, i thought, gracious to john fetterman last night. he kept pointing out his doctor

who gave him the health clearance. one of his campaign donors as his doctor. it was political malpractice to have him on the stage unless you were going for the sympathy vote. since the poll bill showed what i noticed on my raid owe show the poll has tightened. this race is super razor thin. i think dr. oz is leading at this point. the only reason why they had fetterman on the stage was try to play up sympathy. it was a disaster for him. this whole campaign has been a disaster for him. this guy is so far to the left on crime at a time in america when crime is surging and you know better than anybody. the mood of the electorate shifts. right now this electorate doesn't want a guy who argued for releasing first and second degree murderers. they don't want it. a friend of man, a mom, rerouted and had to go through west philly. she said my heart was breaking

as i looked at all the people so struggling in this area. she said this is not the same city it was 10 years ago. there is no mood for what john fetterman views on crime at this political moment. >> bill: oz tried to change the trajectory of this campaign back to policy. now, selena, you got some big hitters coming to pennsylvania. barack obama is coming in, joe biden is coming in. we caught this tweet from hewitt last night. he said every democrat on every ballot is mad at john fetterman for hurting them all. sometimes the biden basement strategy is not just the best way but the only way. have you thought whether or not you are watching the folks in the bar last night about the contrails of the effect of this debate may have on other races perhaps? >> yes, absolutely. i talked to democrats last

night and they said look, if this is sort of what the press has avoided showing us for a large part and what democrats have hidden, this makes me lose trust in the rest of these candidates. so i think it is going to impact a lot of these congressional races. there are two to three that are right on the cusp of going republican. that may take them over the top and may take others as well with it. these are the kinds of moments where people look at this as a marker not just for pennsylvania but across the country and say this -- too many people have been pretending this wasn't a reality. and i don't have trust in the system and/or the democrats. it is not that they love republicans more. they are just really happy -- unhappy with the democrats and how they have presented this race. >> dana: last quick thought on one thing we were talking about

this morning, jennifer and maybe rich also. this is usa today suffolk university poll. fetterman's like built is higher than oz. do you think oz was able to turn that around? perhaps some voters who hadn't seen or heard them talk. did he convince people he should earn their vote? >> i think oz made it clear he wanted to restore stability and said words i think resonated with voters if you look at polling out of pew and other places what do americans want? an end to the discord, more manners, more et quit and oz spoke to that and largely throughout debate stuck to the policy issues. the thing voters care about and think about not where you are on the issue, do you care about me? voters will take that into account at a higher level and vote on that. i think oz was able to show

that he did care about the voters and that he was focused on providing solutions to them, a liability i don't think the democrats and fetterman overcame. >> bill: what are you looking for today and 14 days? >> i want to go to a bar and hear what people have to say also. i will be curious what my callers have to say this afternoon. i really think the bottom line is this. john fetterman is in bad shape politically, bad shape health-wise. they should have switched him out of the race. that's obvious. he is going to lose this race and i think that's the reality right now. i will tell you something dr. oz had to make sure he wasn't being mean to john fetterman and i thought he was gracious. i look for people to react and say to me what were the democrats thinking by keeping him in the race? what are they thinking? remember something, we're weeks into voting already. a lot of people have cast their ballot and why it was political

malpractice to only have one debate at the end of october. >> dana: it is a lot of -- maybe over a million have already voted. rich, if you would please send us a summary of your callers this afternoon we would appreciate it and selena, thanks for the idea watching it at a bar. i'll take that to the bosses this afternoon. >> i'll see you there. >> bill: candidates going at it last night. here in new york there was a good one. republican hopeful zeldin going toe-to-toe with hochul over rising crime and violence plaguing the state. >> i don't think two mexican cartel drug smugglers that you should be instantly released on cashless bail. kathy hochul supports it. she was out there bragging about it. >> we can work on keeping people scared or focus on keeping them safe. there is no crime-fighting plan

if it doesn't include guns and illegal guns. >> bill: recent polling shows it getting very tight with zeldin chasing hochul. in michigan democratic governor whitmer wants another term. dixon stepping up the fight over education and parental rights in the classroom there. >> what i've heard from parents across the state is inappropriate content in school libraries. that's the biggest concern that i'm hearing about. we're talking about sexual content. we're talking about porn porn in schools. parents have risen up across the state 57bd asked whitner to comment and she has been silent. >> i see politicians try to wedge communities against one another. it is dangerous and it is selfish. we need to bring down the temperature and solve the problems to make sure parents are involved and students feel comfortable and we're giving them a robust education. >> there was colorado and the

american west. they faced off over rising crime and inflation. i can't remember a time in american politics when this many people have paid attention to debates like what we saw last night, can you? >> dana: i think part of the reason is and i heard people interviewed today in pennsylvania who said that regardless of how the debate performance went last night for fetterman the national issues for her this one woman interviewed about abortion and would stick with him because the party -- it mattered to her who was going to be in congress that way. the debates can be decisive and 14 days out. we are paying attention for the while and when voters start to pay attention. watch this here. >> we've been struggling and not getting paid obviously. difficult paying the mortgage. our bills just terrible what the city is putting us through. >> dana: vindication for fired new york city workers after a

drug strikes down the vaccine mandate. the city is fighting back. what happens next after that ruling. >> progressive lawmakers walking back a call for negotiations with vladimir putin over the war in ukraine. some say this could fuel more division among moderate democrats. we'll look at that. >> dana: the border crisis showing no signs of ending putting more strain on overwhelmed authorities and communities. it's as easy as one, two, three. one: call newday. two: talk to our team to see how much cash you can get. three: borrow up to 100% of your home's value with the newday 100 va loan. with home values near all-time highs, use your va benefit to turn the equity in your home into cash in the bank. psoriasis really messes with you. try. hope. fail. no one should suffer like that. i started cosentyx®.

>> bill: the white house now -- american freedom seems alive and well in georgia. early voting is breaking records. geraldo rivera "the five" co-host is here today. i can give you the numbers. 63% increase from the same time

period during the mid-term election of four years ago 2018. >> it seems unlikely that there is a climate of voter suppression when you have this kind of record turnout. and i don't think you can argue both sides of the issue. you can't argue that oh my god the vote is being surpressed. gee, look at all these absentee ballots and early voting and other people who expressed interest if casting a ballot. the proof is in the pudding. i think we need to get past the jim crow language. i think it is excessive. it is inflammatory, it is unnecessarily divisive and not supported by the facts. for god sakes you run the race, you win, you lose, that's what wrong in this ton cree right now since 2020 people have doubted the process. they have caused skepticism and uncertainty and they've undermined what is the foundational aspect of american democracy that you get to vote and one man. >> bill: but, but, but. >> dana: joe biden said it is

not just jim crow, jim eagle. karin jean-pierre had this to say yesterday. >> speaking more bradley, of course, high turnout and voter suppression can take place at the same time. they don't have to be -- one doesn't have to happen on its own. they could be happening at the same time. >> dana: i think it's preposterous but they were trying to make the argument we have to show up to vote against these types of voter suppression but that it undercuts our argument there is voter suppression. it doesn't make sense. >> like taking the subway saying not too bad and getting out of the station and saying it was fraught with danger and peril and i was terrified. you can't argue both sides of the issue. i think we should all get past it, republicans and democrats, restore faith in the system that i grew up with over the many, many decades. i've seen it happen. they used to say that when

mayor daly ruled chicago that the dead men vote twice in chicago. a joke, a political fog that lies over it. >> dana: georgia may be showing the way how to do it better. >> bill: they will pass the record from four years ago. they're already approaching presidential numbers of 2020 in georgia. let's come back to new york, a city you know well. >> born and raised. >> bill: the issue of crime comes up many times last night. >> the first day i'm in office i will declare a crime emergency and suspend cashless bail and other pro-criminal laws. there is an emergency. they are not being represented. this governor who still to this moment halfway through the debate still hasn't talked about locking up anyone committing any crimes. >> anyone who commits a crime under our laws especially with the change we made to bail has consequences. i don't know why it's so

important. we could do more. >> dana: not true. >> bill: correct, on the bail. and that phrase i don't know why that's so important to you is what a lot of people are jumping on. zbloots owe very unfortunate. unlike the fetterman/oz debate. i thought hochul held her own against zeldin. he has surged in recent weeks and we know well. the prime job. dana and i spoke about this on "the five" yesterday. the prime job of government is to keep citizens and feel safe. i think that, you know, hochul in terms of bail reform and the refusal to look back and say that was an error, it undermined confidence in the system, it made people feel unsafe. >> bill: and we're going to do better. >> that's unfortunate. i do think she has the edge. i'm not a political expert. seems to me she has the edge. >> dana: the quinnipiac poll

said crime was the number one issue. 28% of people said that and inflation was below that at 20%. i think if you are the zeldin team the last 2% is always hard to get but from their perspective they are surging at the right time and look at your screen every day. we have the facts to show career criminals are the ones who are getting out an cashless bail and committing another crime and sometimes they're fatal and victims are suffering. >> i was with a u.s. marshal and others last night in law enforcement. they say there are 300 crazy hard core criminals committing most of the crime in the city of 8 1/2 million. and in the old days in the giuliani days they went after the 300. now they're playing off. mayor adams guy was there also and i believe he has the stuff, the right stuff to make the city right. >> bill: let's hope. haven't seen it yet. hope the meatballs were

delicious. >> dana: president biden announces new moves to help rising costs. will voters buy it? a fuel tanker crash has a fire on the highway shutting it down. the stunning details next. and when people ask, “but aren't you linked to dangerous flu complications, like pneumonia, heart attack, and hospitalizations?” i just say, “but, i'm just the flu.” it's him! who? i'm just the flu! fight the flu with sanofi flu vaccines. they not only help prevent flu in older adults, they've even been shown to provide better protection from flu-related complications compared to standard dose flu shots. don't get fluzone high-dose quadrivalent if you've had a severe allergic reaction to its components, including egg products, or after previous dose of flu vaccine. don't get flublok quadrivalent if you've had a severe allergic reaction to its components. tell your healthcare professional if you've had severe muscle weakness after a flu shot.

people with weakened immune systems may have a lower vaccine response. this flu season, you do have a choice. choose the protection of a sanofi flu vaccine. ask your doctor or pharmacist which sanofi flu vaccine is right for you. and i'm going to tell you about exciting medicare advantage plans that can provide broad coverage and still may save you money on monthly premiums and prescription drugs. with original medicare you are covered for hospital stays and

doctor office visits but you have to meet a deductible for each, and then you're still responsible for 20% of the cost. next, let's look at a medicare supplement plan. as you can see, they cover the same things as original medicare, and they also cover your medicare deductibles and coinsurance. but they often have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. now, let's take a look at humana's medicare advantage plans. with a humana medicare advantage plan, hospitals stays, doctor office visits and your original medicare deductibles are covered. and, of course, most humana medicare advantage plans include prescription drug coverage. with no copays or deductibles on tier 1 prescriptions, and zero dollars for routine vaccines, including shingles, at in-network retail pharmacies. in fact, in 2021, humana medicare advantage prescription drug plan members saved an estimated $9,600 on

average on their prescription costs. most humana medicare advantage plans have coverage for vision and hearing. and dental coverage that includes two free cleanings a year, plus dentures, crowns, fillings and more! most humana medicare advantage plans include a silver sneakers fitness program at no extra cost. you get all of this for as low as a zero-dollar monthly plan premium in many areas; and your doctor and hospital may already be a part of humana's large network. there is no obligation, so call the number on your screen right now to see if your doctor is in our network; to find out if you could save on your prescriptions, and to get our free decision guide. humana, a more human way to healthcare.

hi, i'm jason and i've lost 202 pounds on golo. so when i first started golo, i was expecting to lose around 40 pounds and then i just kept losing weight, and moving and moving and moving in a better direction. with golo and release, you're gonna lose the weight. about two years ago i realized that jade was overweight. i wish i would have introduced the fresh food a lot sooner. after farmer's dog she's a much healthier weight. she's a lot more active. and she's able to join us on our adventures. get started at longlivedogs.com veteran homeowners, need cash?

with the newday 100 loan, there are no upfront costs for appraisal or termite inspections. no upfront costs at all to get the cash you need. veterans get more at newday. >> dana: welcome back. president biden is set to lay out a plan to lower costs for families struggling with inflation. this is a top concern for mid-term voters but hello, it is 13 days until election day. is it too little too late? peter doocy is live at the white house with more. even in the "new york times" yesterday talking about how the democrats have to land on a messaging them on the economy. how can it be? >> there is a consistent messaging theme here at the white house and it is just to blame others. according to this president there are three main culprits for all this country's problems. you have big oil, you have vladimir putin, and, of course, republicans.

>> president biden: some of our friends in congress say we don't need covid funding. they say there is no reason the government should be paying for it. i strongly disagree, strongly disagree. these guys are asleep. i don't know where they've been and they seem -- the price at the pump should reflect what the price of a barrel of oil costs. and it's not going down consistently. i have been doing everything in my power to reduce gas prices since putin's invasion of ukraine caused these price hikes. >> for whatever reason president biden hasn't been as vocal in protesting saudi led oil production cuts that his administration tried and failed to stop as the saudis warned the world of pain to come. >> it is my profound duty to make it clear to the world that

losing emergency stock may become painful in the months to come. >> right now president biden is meeting with a group of advisors that are gathered to address inflation. the competition council, when they're done he will come out in about an hour or so to announce new steps to give people a little bit of breathing room. it is unclear what those steps will be or if anybody will have breathing room before they go to the ballot box. >> dana: good to hear from you, thank you. >> bill: progressive democrats on the hill making a stiff u turn after they called for vigorous diplomacy with putin to end the war in ukraine. guy benson and a fox news contributor. guy, good morning to you. i'll let you address it. the letter said we urge you to make vigorous diplomatic effort

to engage in direct talks with russia in coordination with ukrainian partners seeking a rapid end t conflict and as america's chief priority. then they said we'll pull that back and here is the correction t. congressional progressive caucus withdraws its recent letter to the white house regarding ukraine. the letter was drafted several months ago but unfortunately was released by staff without vetting. that was from a congresswoman out of washington state. what's up? >> i can't make sense of it. it's a fiasco. a self-inflicted wound for no apparent reason. the more questions i have as opposed to answers. if this is what they really believed, then why wouldn't they affix their signatures to a letter and stand behind it? did all roughly 30 members sign the letter?

it was drafted months ago, if that's true, why release it now? and if they believed it then, do they no longer believe it now? it makes no sense. why would the staff release it all of a sudden in error when they put it out in a press release and leaked it to the media simultaneously. that's a coordinated release. this whole story doesn't make sense. they try to throw some unnamed staffers under the bus but dozens of members of congress involved in this. i would love the back story. >> bill: we may get that after the election. no indication that putin or zelenskyy want to negotiate. does this block of democrats in the house pending how many survive or even advance after this election, does this become a more prominent issue for them and in turn the white house? >> it might. it depends on who controls the house. it looks like the republicans will probably win the house on november 8th and there will be some number of republicans who

want to draw down support to the u.s. ukrainians. you could see interesting coalitions there. it shouldn't be a post election sort of fascination in the future. i would like to know on the record of the people who signed the letter, is it true? did they actually sign the letter and do they believe negotiating with putin is what should happen right now? if not, why not? and get specific answers. just saying oh yeah, we drafted a while ago and oops, someone pushed send this week. we didn't mean it, we take it back. it doesn't make sense. >> bill: last thing here. democrats aren't happy. they didn't anticipate that. one lawmaker who signed the letter. a disaster. cpc needs to clean house. people are furious especially the front liners. the last comment on that, guy. >> well, it is a black eye for the democrats. it looks like the gang that can't shoot straight again. here we have democrats sniping

at each other on and off the record days before an election where they might be in trouble anyone. not how the leadership drew this up. >> bill: we'll see what happens in 13 days. see you soon in person. >> dana: always good to see guy. republican has not won in indiana's first congressional district in nearly 100 years. however, jennifer ruth green is looking to change that and her election would be historic for many reasons. supreme court justice said the leak of the affidavit made supreme court justices targets for assassination. and happy claps... sliced right in front of you. it's a jersey mike's thing. this is the sound of better breathing. fasenra is an add-on treatment for asthma driven by eosinophils. it helps prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing,

this cheesesteak is so freshly grilled you can still hear it sizzling. i can hear it too. me too! actually, it's the... hello? cheesesteak?

...grill. grilled right in front of you. it's a jersey mike's thing.

>> dana: democrats have represented indiana's first congressional district for almost a century. our next guest is eyeing an

historic election. jennifer ruth green is the republican candidate in the race. she joins us now. great to have you back. since i saw you about four weeks ago, let's say, we understood your race was looking like something is going on here. she is gaining on frank and now you are 13 days away. what is the sign to you that says you are actually having an impact here? >> there is a swell, a ground swell of momentum here. so many people are excited saying they're praying and focused and saying they voted. early voting has already started and seen there is great parity. early voting ballots previously have a large gap and the dems lead, now we're seeing that parity and it shows us we're still neck-and-neck per all the polls we've seen and a margin of error race we're excited to

bring home in 13 days. >> dana: is there someone you talked to in your campaigning the conversation stuck with you, maybe somebody who voted democrats for a long time but is willing to make a change and back you instead? >> yes. there are so many members of the african-american community. we just put out a commercial and we had over 10 volunteers who said he voted democrat my whole life but for the first time i'm voting for you, jennifer ruth. such an encouragement to me and i have had several people, because i think what they are excited about is the reality hoosiers deserve better. the congressman hasn't provided it and they cannot be fooled by the thought process that as he continues to purchase port a message of success when we see the difficulties his decisions have caused. the reckless spending, it has been great. >> dana: jason riley of the "wall street journal" he wrote this today. the gop's 2022 mid-term slate
