your staff has told you cut it out, this is just deception. >> he does not appear to be listening. i want to ask you about the impact abortion will have on the upcoming election and where democrats, particularly stand on this. you tweeted out that gavin newsom's refusing to say there should be any limit on abortion whatsoever. here is what he said in a recent interview, monday night. >> what is the policy, what should it be? >> the policy, it's not up to donald trump or me. it's up to you, to women that have to bear that responsibility. uniquely and distinctly and the reality, it's a political fray, it's total b.s. >> sandra: that's gavin newsom and here is kamala harris, the current vice president earlier today. listen. >> one does not have to abandon their faith or deeply held beliefs to agree the government should not be telling her what to do with her body.

this is the reason to really take seriously elections because what the supreme court took away, the united states congress can put back in place. >> sandra: so are democrats failing to clearly state where they stand on this issue? >> yes, yes, and we always talk about abortion being an achilles heel for republicans, and look, republicans have lost every single ballot initiative post roe. we don't often talk about the other side. 22% say abortion should be legal in the third trimester, 37% in the second trimester, 13 weeks after. democrats are refusing to name any line, so the republican party should start asking two really important questions. when does a baby feel pain, should abortion be banned when a baby feels pain, and should a baby outside the womb who survives abortion be protected

in the wake of 210 democrats voting against that legislation when mccarthy brought it forward. >> sandra: interesting analysis, i heard you comment on the issue of pain following a recent interview with mike pence. >> he's done a good job of reorienting the discussion and creating a pro mother, pro family agenda, the child tax credit just expired. will republicans bring it back, foster adoption, come up with the family pro mom agenda, make it the tag line of the republican party. it's not just protecting babies, but storing women. >> sandra: kayleigh, thank you for coming on. >> john: sandra, just outside here across the street from us, near the capitol, this is d street in the area between 1ststreet, second street northeast and the u.s. capitol police, the hart senate office building, capitol police have the area sealed off because of a suspicious vehicle or suspicious

situation. the capitol police say that a dog hit on a vehicle of interest and that they continue to investigate. as you can imagine, this has created havoc with traffic in and around the capitol hill union station area. no word yet from the capitol police on what this might be, how serious it might be, but the fact this they have had the area closed off for more than an hour now would indicate that they are very concerned about whatever it is that the dog found. so, for the time being, if you are in the national capitol region, avoid the area of capitol hill at least for the next little while. we'll keep following this and give you updates as we get them. >> sandra: $80 million mystery, a stealth jet so stealth it disappeared after going down. the military has now found that jet hours from where the accident happened, but it's raising even more questions about what exactly happened. it happened right near south

carolina congresswoman nancy mace's district and even she's asking how the heck did this happen. we'll see what answers she's getting next. salonpas, makers of powerful pain relief patches for 89 years... believes in continuous improvement... like rounded corners that resist peeling, with an array of active ingredients... and sizes to relieve your pain. salonpas. it's good medicine.

>> sandra: crews have begun recovering debris from a stealth jet after a pilot was forced to eject from it, a mystery the pentagon needs to explain. many americans are curious how the military lost a jet worth between 80 and $90 million. jonathan serrie is joining us. what do we know about what exactly happened? >> recovery crews located the debris field in rural williamsburg county, south carolina. that's about 60 miles north of where the aircraft was initially reported missing. on sunday afternoon, the pilot ejected after what military officials will only describe as a mishap. the pilot parachuted to the ground near charleston, was

taken to the hospital in stable condition. pilot expected to be ok, but the high-tech aircraft which continued on auto pilot left no immediate signs of where it wound up. the military even put out a phone number asking for tips from the general public. more than 24 hours later, search teams found the debris field. shortly after the discovery, joint base charleston posted an update on social media saying members of the community should avoid the area as the recovery team secures the debris field. we are transferring the incident command to the u.s. marine corps this evening as they begin the recovery process. but in addition to this investigation into what caused this aircraft mishap, many people just in the general public are asking how could such a high-tech aircraft simply go missing for more than 24 hours? back to you. >> sandra: a lot of questions. thank you, jonathan. john. >> john: bring in republican

congresswoman nancy mace from south carolina, member of the armed services and oversight committees. the f-35, congresswoman, was built to avoid detection. that may have worked too well, prompting you to tweet on x, now that i got that out of the way, how in the hell do you lose an f-35, how is there not a tracking device and we are asking the public to what, find a jet and turn it in? you have some questions about all of this. >> i have a lot of questions and it was sort of embarrassing for the pentagon. i had a briefing yesterday with the marine corps from the pentagon and they sent people over that could not answer a single question i had. could not tell me whether the jet was in the air or under the water. come to find out, the trans ponder failed,s they have not explained why it failed that, is the $80 million question today. >> john: so, this took off from joint base charleston and was flying over north charleston

when the pilot noticed an issue that required him to eject. he punched out of the plane while it was on auto pilot, they were looking and the area of lakes 25 miles north of charleston, but the jet remains were found some 80 miles away, and the whole thing is still a mystery why the pilot punched out in the first place. >> that's correct. and when i was briefed by the marine corps yesterday, i asked if they knew how long the jet could last in the air on auto pilot with the amount of fuel it had, they had no answers. the public did not know if there was a public safety concern and the public deserves greater transparency, i'm not talking about spilling national secrets on a classified aircraft, we are just talking about normal public safety, public emergency types of questions. the pentagon just refused to answer and so you know, we have more questions than answers at this point, but i'm going to be demanding answers for south carolina, for our local leaders to get to the bottom of it.

>> john: and we hope that you do. i want to turn to business in the house there, because the big battle is on over whether or not there's going to be a government shutdown, whether or not there would be satisfactory spending cuts. matt gaetz may introduce a motion to vacate the chair, you were asked about it and did not say whether you would support a motion but did say everything is on the table. two days later is this the sort of thing you would support? >> for me, everything is on the table with regards to any motions or votes we have over the next week or two. several members up here were made promises, those promises were not kept, i'm from south carolina, we do a lot of deals by handshake. when i look you in the eye and say we are going to do this and i've held up my end of the bargain i expect the same in return and i'm not going to support washington as usual.

we will do the same thing as we have always done, that's not right for the country. we came up here to change the direction of the nation and i want to see us do that for the good. >> john: had you happy with the john speaker mccarthy is doing? >> i would say, i would put me in the column of being very frustrated. i don't like feeling like i was misled or lied to on particular pieces of legislation. i worked very hard to show a road map and a pathway for women, for republican women, how we can move forward and win suburban women over next year, worked on a number of pieces of legislation fallen on deaf ears and ignored, no matter the promises made by the leadership. put me in the very unhappy column today. >> john: do you think there will be a shutdown? >> 50/50 whether or not it happens. right now, meetings to do with leadership and different members against the continuing resolution, it was a productive conversation but hard to say if they will get to 218. >> john: last question here, are

you concerned if there is a shutdown it's going to bite republicans? >> republicans always get blamed. god's honest truth. democrats and republicans put us in this place. our debt hit $33 trillion today. that sham of a debt ceiling deal three months ago is going to add almost $20 trillion to debt over the next ten years. if neither side is willing to address the problem, the spending problem we have today, we are just going to get the same thing we have always gotten, spending our kids' future into oblivion and we cannot afford to do that. >> john: congresswoman nancy mace good of you to join us today. hope you get the answers on the jet. >> same. >> sandra: do your college kids need a hug, would you pay someone to do it for you? >> john: brian brenberg and jackie deangelis fired up with the college concierge. what do we always say, son? liberty mutual customizes your car insurance... so you only pay for what you need. that's my boy. ♪

having children, whether it makes sense for you to think about aspiring to buy a home. >> sandra: kamala harris a few moments ago speaking at a community college in pennsylvania. she says climate anxiety is a very real thing and that it's one of the big problems facing young people in america that things like the inflation reduction act are fixing, but are we taking the coddling of young minds too far. some college age children are relying on concierge services which offer stand-in parents. our big money panel is here, and they are already reacting. joining us live on set to discuss, co-host of "the big money show," i said college age children, and some people say they are nearly adults at that age, most are, 18 and over, is this another example of coddling kids that are becoming adults?

>> i have now seen some of the pictures of the dorm rooms that they are helping. you should see this. >> sandra: the commercial break conversation was we are talking about the stand-in parents, hiring for the parents away at college to help them find a sport coat or whatever it is, and i said have you seen the dorm renovations, moms and dads are going into the dorm rooms normally cement walls and bunk beds and they are completely like decking these rooms out, they look like they live in a castle. >> they are stunting the development of their own kids by doing this. like you've got to provide -- college is about a lot of tough love, you send your kid off and they got to grow up and have some bumps along the road. if you are snowplowing all their problems away from them, how are they going to grow up. my dad dropped me off and said wow, you are lucky, son, see you later. i didn't have a sport coat, out of the kindness of their heart helped me out with the first sport coat. >> you were happy with the ramen

noodles. >> the point of college to learn how to be on your own. you have been -- and you will learn how to do laundry, cook a hot meal, do your own room and get the kinds of things you need as well as your education. so i think they are doing them a disservice by doing this, and you know what we were saying during the break also, brian and i, saying, sandra, this is -- these parents obviously have not been touched by inflation, because they can pay for said concierge service, it gives you a sense of what's going on in the economy and people out there right now. they have too much money and -- >> sandra: obviously a trend to the point the wall street journal is writing about it, a mother's love, $450 a year plus applicable piece, and a young man called in a panic, needed a sport coat early next morning, target was the only store open but nothing put his 6'4" frame,

>> john: the u.s. strategic oil reserve is at a 40-year low. with oil prices on the rise once again, the biden administration is struggling to keep its promise to replenish the reserve. william la jeunesse live with more on this story. william, i guess the question is why buy oil at $20 a barrel when you can buy it at 90? >> yeah, i'll get to that in a minute with a great example. you're right. the spr is the nation's piggyback for oil. a war, embargo, hurricane, it's supposed to be there. right now it's half empty. president biden has tried to reduce gas prices using the spr. as you can see how that is

working, almost $4 nationally, $6 in california. president biden has taken more oil from the spr than all previous presidents combined leaving the u.s. vulnerable. they broke a promise to refill the spr when prices didn't fall as much as they hoped. >> at the point that the strategic petroleum reserve isn't filled, i don't think the administration has done their homework and leave us unprepared for the necessary geo political event. >> so in the last 40 years, presidents kept the spr in the gulf nearly full at 700 million barrels. but three years in, president biden has drained almost 300 million barrels to the lowest level in 40 years. when republicans tried to stop him from taking more, they were accused of protecting big oil. >> house republicans introduced another bill on the strategic

petroleum reserve. blocking action that would help lower gasoline prices and help consumer. >> it was a terribly irresponsibly handling of the strategic petroleum reserve. it was purely for political reasons. there was a mid-term election coming up. he sold off nearly half of our reserve. that has never happened before. >> so john, for context, the average price of a barrel inside the spr is $29. president trump tried to refill it when it hit $20 a barrel during covid. democrats said no. now is as you said five times higher, nearing $100 to refill the spr, $29 billion. back to you. >> neil: just can't make this stuff up. william la jeunesse for us. sandra? >> tired of monthly subscription fees? you may have to add another one to your list. why one social media giant could make you fork over some cash to
