joe: kind of a kitchen sink kind of night.ing what the balance is that he will strike on the war in ukraine and domestic and inflation issues. of course they tied to each other but this is his opportunity to stand in front of the american people in the world, it's a unique platform that only the president gets. he will speak at 9:00, likely for the better part of an hour. the tone he strikes will be very important. how much does he acknowledge the fact that americans are hurting and are concerned and that his approval ratings as we saw last weekend are in the 30's. another poll that we saw yesterday shows more than half of americans think that the united states is in a recession or depression. this will be a story that joe biden will try to tell about what's been accomplished in terms of talking infrastructure and covid where we seem to be turning the corner and my big question is whether he will be wearing a mask when he walks in. the house is now mask optional, a lot of lawmakers are not planning to wear a mask. guy: that wi

where we began the show, on restoration hardware and this call they had when they through the kitchen sinktheir expectations growth would decelerate in their business outlook would deteriorate. how much is that representative of the larger corporate universe in the face of inflation and the consumer where they are versus a more specific or ambiguous story? nela: as this recovery matures, what we expect is a shift in consumer spending from durable like furniture over to services. that is what we are waiting for. the problem is that service increase is capped by employees. if services cannot find the headcount, especially in leisure and hospitality, then we are not going to see the growth. it is the same macro story in terms of durable goods like furniture. it is also about the transformation of the economy through the recovery back into services. jonathan: always in education. thanks for being with us. nela richardson of adp. in two weeks you get cpi data. the day after, earnings season, the unofficial start with jp morgan. important days coming up. tom: what we have heard from people, incl

key through the kitchen sink at a problem leaving people to wonder is it exactly as you say which is some sort of slow down in demand or is it a syncretic model with their business model -- syncretic problem with their business model? you are basically saying it is the idea of a slowdown in consumer appetite that you are starting to see elsewhere that will become the theme over the next quarter. marvin: i think it is something to focus on because that is what the fed needs to do given that higher rates will have no impact on energy. the food discussion is one that will take a while and that is it big part of the increase month-to-month. it is the consumer demand construction -- destruction that we have to get a sense of in terms of how aggressive the fed thinks it needs to be in 2023 around those topics. tom: you are making jokes about this. i had the modern aviator flight desk for $8,000 and it was too low. i could not my legs under it and i had to send it back. jonathan: you are only saying that because you know i've got it. i can tell you lots of things. world class logistics. i k

there's an overall theme, and marsha blackburn tends to have a kitchen sink argument to suggest that shoulders of a hidden agenda of the judge. what was your impression of the line of opening statements that came today? >> laura, thank you so much for having me this evening on this first day of this historic confirmation hearing. i think we heard a little bit of everything. and from the democrats, of course, we heard about the historic nature of the nomination, the breadth of judge jackson's experience. and from the republicans, i think what we're seeing is that this is really an toopportunityo get across national talking points, right? this is one of the few times that people are really tuning in to the judiciary committee. as you've just heard with senator blackburn, you're going to hear a little bit of everything, from critical race theory to even senator cotton talking about a wave of violent crime to all kinds of things that really don't have to do with judge jackson's qualifications but are opportunities for senators to show what's on their agenda. >> this talking point about b

hear, karen i think the question is this sort of a canary in the coal mine, or are they just kitchen sifrn sinkingtive sandbag kind of guide? >> that is a great question. because the first part of the call was the soaring rhetoric about what rh can be and scaling, taste doesn't scale or you have to scale taste or whatever their saying is and all the things they're doing, the rh jet and yacht and architecture firm, the rh housing, talking about having rh houses they build and furnish. those two things are slightly -- not slightly, very much in opposition to one another. all that having been said, though, it is interesting to me just like a doom or docusign, rh is close to entirely losing all of their pandemic stock boom and now bust and the valuation is actually starting to get interesting to me. try to, you know, evoke the three-day rule, we're only at day one, and i'm not very good at the rules, so i don't know if it goes down tomorrow. i might look to start buying there. i don't know the end of rh is in sight. maybe they can scale back some of the ambitions but i think that clearly higher rates

it turned into a kitchen sink speech in the back half of what we heard. >> he was successful tonight.you pointed out, he found common ground with the room in the world frankly by opening it up on ukraine. very unusual, as reported he would start with the foreign policy segment. then, i think he bookended it by actually closing with that ray of moonshot cancer and things like that that he said, look, these will be bipartisan. we agree on that. he started and ended the speech with the joe biden that campaign for president as the bipartisan candidate for president. in between, he pivoted to partisanship. there were few opportunities for both democrats and republicans to stand up and applaud in the center of the speech. it is interesting he continued to flaunt policies that he knows, in the next 12 months, will not see daylight in the house or senate. joe: that is the issue here. you and i were following along here with what the president is saying, in speeches that we have largely heard before. we went through every element of build back better without axley calling it that. we went thro

that's what you are seeing with these hypersonic missiles, hypo baker bombs, throwing the kitchen sinke, training, leadership, motivation, and that's clearly not the russian strong point. as they hold on and don't have progress, i think the big concern from the ukrainians and those of us in the west we don't want to see them report to something which is a complete escalation of what he currently has going on. >> steve: speaking of putin. i'm sure you saw these stories over the weekend. particularly in the european press, general. accord toipg tell officials grouch russian elites really being hurt by the sanctions have decided essentially they want putin out. so they are going to try to get rid of him. either going to poison him. an accident, a sudden disease or something like that. that explains why he has food testers and stuff like that. that could be disinformation, we don't know for sure. but, nonetheless, you do wonder what kind of pressure putin is under. >> well, clearly, he is losing face from what he thought the original plan was going to be. and for people like this, this is
