good stuff, ben domenech today. back to the markets, green on the dow industrials and nasdaq and s&p are down. gentlemen on the right hand side of the screen is gary. what's your reaction to the cpi report this morning? what will the fed do about it? >> we thought that in july the inflation peaked and just a matter of how good it gets and it's still way up there. it's positive the direction is better and i think it gives the fed cover, but i've been saying every day, just watch the 10-year yield and if it stays down or goes lower, that's good news and we've gone from 4.3% down to 3.5. that is good news for mortgages and good news for the economy and hopefully it continues on its way to the downside. stuart: i'll call it a rally. not much of a rally at the moment but does it have any legs at all? >> i actually think, yeah. on the weekend i sent yourself and everybody else a note that i thought last friday we put another low end in the market after a brutal december, and i must tell you, stuart, advanced declines on a

ben domenech is on deck, he is next, hi, ben. this thing, it's making me get an ice bath again.-blowing! they collect hundreds of data points like hrv and rem sleep, so you know all you need for recovery. and you are? i'm an investor...in invesco qqq, a fund that gives me access to... nasdaq 100 innovations like... wearable training optimization tech. uh, how long are you... i'm done. i'm okay. there's a different way to treat hiv. it's every-other-month, injectable cabenuva. for adults who are undetectable, cabenuva is the only complete, long-acting hiv treatment you can get every other month. cabenuva helps keep me undetectable. it's two injections, given by my healthcare provider, every other month. it's one less thing to think about while traveling. hiv pills aren't on my mind. a quick change in my plans is no big deal. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions post-injection reactions, liver problems, and depression. if you have a rash and other

today" and ben domenech editor-at-large for the spectator and host of the ben domenech podcast on foxaking news, ben, we would like to get to with you and i want to put this tweet up on the screen if i can. this is from jim banks. he is saying how will the people demanding president trump go to prison spin this? what is he talking about the breaking news that merrick garland has now assigned a u.s. attorney in chicago to review potential, potential classified documents found at the penn biden center for diplomacy and, of course, jim banks is referring to the entire world coming down on president trump for the classified documents found or potentially classified documents found at mar-a-lago. your thoughts on this, ben? >> obviously there's going to be the normal accusations of hypocrisy and i think that they probably have merit to them here. one of the things i think is important is to understand what the content of these documents are. we have an overclassification problem in america generally. a lot of people use that frankly as a point to defend former president trump and i think i

ben domenech editor-at-large for the spectator. host of the ben domenech broadcast.aking a point to say this is apples and oranges. how they handled it was different. but to the "wall street journal's'" op-ed, the perception about handling classified materials is the basic part here. >> yeah. i mean, that is the legal principle at play. and the initial democratic and white house defense was that there was just, what, 10 documents now we know there is more lieutenant journal garland u.s. attorney appointed by trump to do the initial investigation. so it does seem like there is some momentum for a special counsel to have the same standard in how he did he want with the trump administration documents as we're learning that there are very strong similarities between this case and what happened at mar-a-lago. >> bret: you heard the chairs of the senate and the house intelligence committee. both have concerns that they haven't been briefed on any of this, the mar-a-lago documents or this and there's a call for a special counsel in this. i would be interested to see if that

ben domenech joins me now. i say this is a power grab by the minority. do you see it that way?absolutely. it is also something i think is bent on achieving a lot of special treatment for the people in rebellion. they want to skip ahead of the line, they want to have the house act differently than it does traditionally in terms of hierarchies and waiting your turn for leadership. they want to seize control of a lot of things they care about. ideologically i agree with a lot of the different things in terms of the way they would like the house to run but the way they've got about trying to achieve this has resulted in essentially this terrorist standoff between them and the overwhelming majority of people in their conference who they are supposed to work with as a team. the way this is playing out kevin mccarthy is likely from my perspective to end up being speaker of the house, no one else could come close to the level of votes he gets. at the same time he will be a speaker who may not have the strength or ability to advance an agenda at a time when americans need to see the ove

howard: joins us now, ben domenech, editor at large for the sec today to have.com, and in -- spectator.comd in los angeles, leslie marshall, both are fox news contributors. ben, my question is about the 20 holdouts. what did they stand for? what did they really want? did they want a deal or just to revel in the media attention? >> i actually think they wanted some very specific things, most of which they got. i think a lot of folks in washington, myself included, think they could have gotten there without this kind of display. part of the business of being a legislator is convincing the majority of people within your conference that these are the number of steps that need to be taken in order to make congress work right. they were not willing to do that and, instead, we had this situation where they showed up in the lobby like chris farley with a bunch of road flares wrapped around them, and they ended up getting most of what they wanted. the interesting thing about the coverage is so many people were getting so many things completely wrong. on cnn i heard from jake tapper and anderson coo

editor at large and fox news contributor, ben domenech, as well as cpac foundation senior fellow andtor of strategic munication, mercedes schlapp. we will start with you. is this healthy debate? >> i've got to tell you, it's a painful debate to watch from the outside. but this is something that i wish would have happened a while back, where you would have these behind closed doors deals that are being made before we end up in this kind of mess we are seeing right now in display on the house floor. i think democrats are relishing this moment. it shows the power of the house freedom caucus and how they want to have a say in this process, and they obviously not pleased with kevin mccarthy and wants an alternative. supporting jim jordan. with that being said, while jim jordan is gaining momentum, it would be interesting to see if jordan could even gather the votes of moderates. and jim jordan, quite frankly, wants to say as chairman of the judiciary committee. that's where he's been focusing his efforts. so the question will become, will steve scalise arise from this as a potential speak
