let's just listen to this. >> this is biden/harris, a record of accomplishment up there with franklinvelt and lyndon johnson, kamala harris, the vice president. this is our ticket, we're proud of it. >> we're all behind the biden/harris administration, which has delivered spectacular, remarkable victories. we have been making tremendous progress under biden/harris, and we're all for the ticket. >> vice president harris has been a great vice president. she'll be a great running mate. she's been a tremendous partner in the things that president biden has been able to accomplish, which have been phenomenal. >> coincidence, errol? >> no, not a coincidence. somebody got a memo. somebody got a couple of phone calls. >> a biden/harris ticket memo. >> this draumbeat, this idea tht came from the republicans that a vote for biden is a vote for harris so let's attack harris. and the democrats were slow to pick up on that and were actually giving ate little bit of oxygen by not forcefully push back. what you saw over the weekend was them finally realizing, if we don't protect the black woman on t

you said the biden/harris administration. one of the things that has been set by at least one republican hopeful, governor nikki haley, former ambassador to the u.n. which is was taken as a crude and crass notion, that she thought somehow because of his age, president joe biden would not be able to survive his term, and that the statements now being made is that a vote for president biden is really a vote for vice president harris. you are from california, she was in the senate there, she was the attorney general there, you are quite familiar with her work, obviously. she has taken a lot of criticism about her position as the vice president, a lot of criticism about her trajectory becoming the president of the united states, having run before, unsuccessfully. why do you think that she is being targeted, in particular, as the talking point of what a vote for biden would mean? >> well, the biden/harris administration has done a phenomenal job delivering for the american people. vice president kamala harris is a woman of color.

we've been making progress under biden harris. congressman jamie raskin clarifying previous comments where they appeared to have been hesitant. vice president harris as the 2024 running mate. according to the hill, the biden campaign and its allies are rallying around the vice president, rejecting chatter that the president would use anyone to follow the ticket. joining us now, democratic strategist and voter protection funds, and's msnbc global political analysts. we're just missing david today, he'll be back soon. don, you've been on the show many times, your huge advocate for the vice president. what is your response to comments from leadership who are dancing around whether or not to the right person to run with president biden? >> the intro clip is hardening if you are a fan, and shows over the last few weeks, if not months, in fairness to those who are under the hill, as i am not, they may have heard things, or been aware of things, aware poll numbers and whatnot, and a way that the general public is not, and perhaps as what

. >> harris: doubts about president biden's ability to do his job. that's also a concern for his backup kamala harris. for different reasons, of course. and now it's coming out fully from democrats publicly. the liberal media's strong defense of that 2024 presidential ticket may be weakening. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." "washington post" columnist david ignatius got the ball rolling. president bide app should not run in 2024. a "new york times" piece calling the 2024 piece a field of nightmares. an op-ed in the "new york magazine" titled the case for biden to drop kamala harris, even from this former house speaker nancy pelosi. >> is vice president kamala harris the best running mate for this president? >> he thinks so. that's what matters. >> do you think she is the best running mate, though? >> she is the vice president of the united states. people say to me why isn't she doing ththat. because he is the vice president. that's the job description. you don't do that much. >> harris: wow. that didn't sound like full throate

biden in there. he was basically their last choice. and kamala harrisaybe try to calm the radicals and it backfired. >> laura: chris, thinking right now about this in the moment, i have to say they are going to go with biden. because they don't have anyone. >> it would be wild. i don't think gavin newsom is going to try to torpedo the democratic party. you can't run against a sitting president and expect anyone from the democratic party to win. ted kennedy did that against carter. ronald reagan did that against gerald ford. it ends your party's chances for the next election. and they know that so these people who could be replacement like gavin newsom, potentially if you want to run on california's record. they want to stand on the sidelines, cross their fingers and hope that the american public are not ready for another trump presidency. >> laura: chris, these numbers are staggering, thank you for helping us unpack them. we are debunking something chris just referenced. biden's nikolays. one by one with former trump's economist has has seth. he is bril

earlier this year the biden/harris administration also published its national cybersecurity strategy which addresses these among other issues head on by laying out an action plan to disrupt ransom or criminals. it lays out four key pillars to disrupt them by one, lurching international cooperation to disrupt the ecosystem the isolate those countries that provide safe havens. two, investigating ransom ware crimes using law enforcement and other authorities to disrupt it and them. third, bolstering critical infrastructure resilience to withstand such acts and forth addressing the abuse to wander ransom payment. the department of justice also continues hold ransom or criminals accountable most recently he is handling the network and more than 8.6 million in crypto currency. quick that is great but it's a mock modern start important first steps. much more has to be done i know will hear that from her witnesses today. i look forward to hearing the testimony working with you. madame chairwoman and others and of course mr. brown trying to crack and ultimately prevent ransom or attacks and i

last night we told you democrats have begun serious conversations about whether biden/harris ticket is a best shot for keeping power. a well respected liberal columnist wrote what many of accounts are privately thinking. the biden must step aside for the good of its party. tonight, we sense the winds may be shifting on the policy front as well. the warning again delivered via "washington post" column written by another prominent globalist fareed zakaria. biden's efforts have amounted to a band-aid on a message "about immigration. the president must use the power he has 2 stop asylum-seekers while the system tries to process the millions of cases outstanding. wow. that's coming from reads zakaria and that is huge. his words when i was reading this, selective ripped out of an old angle from 2021 when i was warning an open border would break america and break the pregnant bride and demonstration. his of the migrant crisis is exposing democratic policy weakness at every level. administration that is scared to take on progressive wing right just shuttle shelter roles in new york and massach

happens when you open up the doors to the alternative. >> jesse: someone who deftly zeroed in on the biden-harrisum is nikki haley. >> i will say a vote for joe biden is a vote for kamala harris, that's who we are actually running against beard >> jesse: let's turn it over to 2024 presidential candidate nikki haley. that smart of you to say and now everybody can see it visually as she stretched through the columns of armed men what that would look like. do you think it's gaining traction? >> i think first of all, i was speaking a hard truth that we know joe biden thinks he's going to win the election and he will hand it off to a president kamala harris which would scare all of us. but look at the summit that you're talking about. it's a group of ten countries and this is a very important timely summit because you've got the chinese military really trying to push through in the south china sea. a lot of our trade goes through and a lot of the world's trade goes through. some of the countries do not want china doing that. i like the philippines and malaysia. this is where they will browbeat the cou

but the new biden biography portrays kamala harris not as powerful, but is picky, petty and insecure biden's chief of staff, ron klain, found kamala to be a lost cause. >> quote, he felt harris kept making life excessivelt hayortso difficult by imposing all sorts of constraints on herself. fshe told him that she didn't want to work on women's issues or anythin g to do with race.sh she wanted her office to bee wa majority female to be and to hae a black woman as chief of staff to klain'sstaf ear. >> she was creating too many her rules and they made it hard for her to find her footing.rk kamala didn't want to work on female or black issues, a maj but she wanted a majority of her staff to be female oortaffr black. the biden biographer also said that kamalabide als quit h. as borders are full. she let the criticism guide her instead of diligently sticking to the central america assignment. she seemed to accept the conventional wisdom about itgnment, . >> it was a futile gig. riden, making her border czar, felt like a sadistic hazing ritual. >> the biden kamala weekly lunches have almost s

so we've been making tremendous progress under biden harris. and we are all for the ticket and, i know that, again, there seems to be an effort to say well, there's chaos on the republican side, there's gotta be chaos on the democratic side. there is not. and i think that biden and harris have done a remarkable job against all the political odds, as they face a rule or ruin faction within the republican party, which arrived at work this last week with just three goals. one to shut down the government of the united states, to to impeach the president of the united states, and three to overthrow the speaker of the united states. >> congressman -- >> it's like alfred penny worth said in batman. cemented like to burn everything down. >> no way to end it on batman. congressman jamie raskin, always a pleasure, thank you for mining us what is important. and coming up after jack smith requests a gag order on donald trump, the former president basically dares the judge to impose one. andrew weissmann and we'll catch all join me, next. plus, republicans

you hear this as well, among democrats saying is joe biden the right guy? is kamala harrisight person? what he is trying to do is say let's just stop doing that, democrats, let's, as you heard him, get on the train and figure out how to get this team reelected. that is by and large the main, main argument that he is trying to make and, again, he's trying to make it to american voters, but he's also trying to send a signal to democratic operatives, donors, everybody who is very concerned. >> all right, dana bash, thank you so much. be sure to watch dana's full interview on cnn. com. just in tonight, a billionaire republican donor to ron desantis is bailing on the candidate. his explanation up next. we're going to discuss.

harris, hunter biden and the d.o.j. hoped to avoid this day when they met in court in delaware in july. you mentioned the plea deal that critics called a sweetheart deal fell apart when the government could not guarantee that hunter would be immune from any future prosecutions. hunter's attorney wrote to congressional republicans yesterday just hours after the indictment. he wrote, quote, your improper interference now affecting a federal prosecutor is a much greater threat to society than the 11 days that mr. biden possessed an unloaded gun. it's important to note that hunter biden may face more charges and another indictment. we know so because david weiss, special counsel, said in a court document last month the tax vehlations that were part of that plea deal may be charged in the district of california, where hunter biden lives or possibly washington, d.c. so what happened yesterday was just the gun aspect of it. looks like more could be in store for the president's son. >> harris: thank you very much. the "new york

hunter biden will get subpoenaeded. >> harris: jose registered voters are saying they think there might be some problems with biden and hunter and at the very least it's a distraction. >> look, i'm not worried about polls. i'm worried how much can biden do for the american people before next year's election. polls go up and down. 2016 every poll said that hillary clinton would be president. she is not the president. never the president. so i'm not worried about polls. whether they benefit democrats or don't benefit democrats. i'm worried about how much more can biden do for the american people until the next election. >> he is doing a lot americans aren't happy about. quickly there are limitations to the amount of investigatory powers our members have. the whole point and purpose of having an inquiry is to give them additional powers to subpoena bank records and see how money was moved around and transferred to which accounts. it is important for the american people democrats and republicans to understand more powers would truly allows us to figure out whether or not the president did d

there has been a lot of second guess sane about the biden harris ticket.gh they have an impressive record that they can run on, and that they can stand on. why do you think that is? >> whatever it, as we're on our path now, this is biden harris a record of accomplishments up there with franklin roosevelt, and lyndon johnson. two years of consequence, 13 million jobs, unemployment cut in half, inflation coming down. we have to do better, we have to be an unfinished business. there is a great record of achievements, there is great camaraderie, nobody knows the vice presidency better than joe biden, and certainly in recent history, he knows it very well. he knows the country, he knows the job, he knows kamala harris, from the vice president, this is our ticket, we're proud of it. we're going from here. if you, there's no use talking about. it when you talk about, it when you're in the community, you're in the party, people are for them. they may want, they may think maybe somebody younger, whatever that discussion is, but this is a president who has a vision

in fact, to date, the biden/harris administration has canceled more than $117 billion in loan debt for 3.4 million borrowers. and earlier today, the biden/harris administration announced that more than 4 million student loan borrowers are enrolled in the administration's new income driven repayment plan, the saving on a valuable education or save plan. this includes those who were transitioned from the previous revised pay as you earn or repay plan. save is the most affordable repayment plan ever and will save millions of borrowers money on their monthly payments. student borrowers can visit studentaid.gov/save to sign up today. the application takes less than 10 minutes to fill out for most. and finally an update on the president and the first lady since she tested positive for covid-19 last night. i can tell you that the first lady is experiencing mild symptoms and will remain in delaware for the week. president biden tested negative last night for covid-19 and tested negative again today. he's not experiencing any taking, you will be masking and as has been the practice in the past,

we are all behind the biden harris administration.delivered spectacular and remarkable victories in a 1.2 trillion dollar infrastructure of america and inflation reduction acts. in the dramatic reductions of health care costs for the american people and the medicare program in the climate and advocacy and defense against the nightmare of climate change we have been making tremendous progress under biden and harris. we are all for the ticket. i know that there seems to be an effort to say if, there is chaos on the republican side, there is got to be chaos on the democratic side. there is not. i think that biden and harris have done a remarkable job against all political odds as they face a ruling faction within the republican party which arrived at work this last week with just three goals. to shut down the government of the united states, to to impeach the president of the united states. and three to overthrow the speaker of the united states. >> congressman -- >> it's >> like what penny worth setting batman. so men like to burn every

creating 13 million jobs with the biden-harris administration. implementing landmark pieces of legislation. lifting up the middle class. those are the things that the american public wants us to talk about. those are the things that we will continue to deliver. this republican conference is solely about chaos, confusion and the performance of a few personalities. marjorie taylor greene and donald trump have dinner, they break bread, they plot all of this. for house republicans to carry his political water and do his bidding. our focus is not going to be on the politics of donald trump. that's not who we are. that's not what the american public wants us to focus on. mr. jeffries: questions? reporter: obviously the announcement today from speaker mccarthy with just a few week left before the government shuts down, does this make it more difficult to work with the speaker in getting a continuing resolution, getting government funding? mr. jeffries: we have a responsibility as members of congress to make sure we are funding the government to provide

this past wednesday, he was the chief biden/harris surrogate post the second republican debate at the reagan library. is and he's accepted an invitation from fox news to debate ron desantis with new hampshirety moderating. they relished mixing it up with the anchor. >> i don't disagree. >> and? >> we dominate on innovation. >> for ron desantis, a newsom debate feels like a hail mary, to reassert himself as the future of his party. his numbers have only headed downward. a recent poll showed him dropping by 13 points in new hampshire since july. he's polling about even with vivek ramaswamy, nikki haley and chris christie. when the newsom/desantis debate was announced, i tweeted i could think of someone not happy with that pairing. i meant the vice president. newsom is in the process of potentially positioning himself as the to go-to in the event president biden doesn't run in 2024. potentially leapfrogging over grech gretchen withmerit, clamy klobuchar and kamala harris. he was tapped by the biden/harris campaign to be in the spin room post gop debate and logic tdictates that would have

>> harris: remember, polls don't get asked in a vacuum. the biden be rattled by this. >> harris: really? a "wall street journal" op-ed. biden's age problem isn't going away. is kamala harris ready for the big desk? voters will ask that questions. van jones calling the president of the united states this grandpa. >> that's quite remarkable. joe biden was older on the day he took office than ronald reagan was on the day he left office. if he got a second term, he would be 86 years old at the end of his second term. if you look at the social security tables, he has -- a average american has a 60% chance -- has a 42% chance of living to the age of 85. there is about a 60% chance that joe biden won't live to the end of his second term much less do so in a way that is capable of carrying off the office of the presidency. that means the odds are 60% or more that kamala harris would become president if reelected. democrats are tear wived by that. she is even less popular than he is. he has already beaten trump. they think he could beat them. what happens if

now you have empowered biden. >> harris: top oversight democrat jamie raskin is calling the republican-led investigations a complete and total bust. epic flop in the history of congressional investigations. the voluminous evidence demonstrates no wrongdoing by president biden, end quote. in "focus" republican congressman mike waltz of florida who supports a biden impeachment inquiry. let's get straight to senior congressional correspondent chad pergram on the hill. i may have to cut in if speaker walks to that lectern. >> i'm watching this, too, to see if he starts. he talked impeachment all summer law. talking impeachment from different than even having the votes to formalize an inquiry. this is what mccarthy said throughout the summer. >> this is rising to the level of impeachment inquiry which provides congress the strongest power to get the rest of the knowledge and information needed. because this president has used the weaponization of government to benefit his family and deny congress the ability to have the oversight. >> mccarthy is telling his members an inquiry is the next logica

vote for biden is a vote for kamala harris. hel: great point, todd, this cnn poll, talking about american republicans, what about american democrats? they are polling, majority of them want anyone, but biden, is it nikki haley they would feel safest and best with if they had to end up with a republican candidate? that is the interesting thing, maybe democratic view of harris versus haley. >> todd: i think yes and i think the reason is one reason and one issue only, which helps her win the republican primary, parental rights. she's knocked it out of the park on parental rights and i'm a proud papa bear, i will fight to the death for my child, something about a mama bear saying we need to fight for every kid in america. that will get republicans to cross to her, but definitely democrats and republicans put kids number one. >> rachel: this chesting never works, party should go where the heart is, it goes better this way. >> emily: kamala harris is ready to drop vice from vice president saying she is more than ready to take over for

last night we told you that democrats have begunat least conversations about whether a biden-harris ticket is reallyy their best shot at this point for keeping power. a well-respected ticke liberal columnist for "the washington post" wrote what many democrats coy that biden must step aside for the good of his party. and tonight, we sense the winds may be shifting the policy front as well. the warning again delivered a washington post column written by another prominent globalisa t, fareed zaporizhia. biden's efforts have amounted to a band on a massive open wound, he says, about immigration at.he the president must use the power he has to stop seekers while the system tries to process the millions of cases outstanding. wow. now, that's coming from fareedac zaporizhia, and that is huge. zakaand his words when i was reading this sounded like they were ripped out of an old angle from. ding 21 when i was warning that an open border would break america and break the biden administration. he said the crisis is exposing democratic policy weakness at every level. an administration that is scared t

. >> president biden and vice president harris are determined to restore roe v.e, and they'll never allow a national abortion ban to become law. as long as they are in office, decisions about your body will be made by you, not by them. >> that ad from the biden/harris campaign is part of a $25 million ad buy which is big, running in seven battleground states. the biden/harris campaign is running this ad targeting anti-abortion republican policies. earlier than any incumbent nominee has begun running ads in the last two presidential cycles. they're up early and big. a good reminder about the potency of the abortion issue, but i think it's also a good reminder that republican governance in individual states can easily become a national story, can easily become a defining problem for republicans who are hoping nobody notices what they're doing in individual states. and i think we're seeing that happen right now in a state like alabama on abortion. but it is also happening on a separate but equally important issue in a really important swing state, and we have that s

1 or 2 much less three of that group run, it will make a difficult election for joe biden almost impossible. >> harrisy, it depicts trump, biden, and others showing walkers. voters have deep concern over biden's mental fitness, age tends to come up with those conversations, too. axios reporting that his aides have a don't let him trip mission. somebody is assigned to keeping him upright, apparently. they are taking extra steps to prevent him from tripping in public like he did on the air force academy stage in june. wear tennis shoes and shorter stairs. charlamagne tha god blasting the president over this blunder. >> they said he referred to him as a boy. he corrected himself on the spot. you know joe biden corrected himself. he is 137 years old. he understands the word boy and boy is absolutely a white raceest word. doesn't matter how many black people you have in your administration. if it's not authentic it won't come off as ou authentic to anyone. >> the fact that "the new yorker" is acknowledging the age problem. mitch mcconnell and president biden and much less an issue for nancy pelosi and dona

ignatius says the biden-harris ticket has two big liabilities.e president's age -- 82 at the start of another term -- and, second, kamala harris' inability to present herself as a viable president. dropping her prosecute ticket would alienate black women. that that's a key voting bloc. but biden, oh, he could simply retire as the democrat hero who beat trump. that is now the public template for managing change at the top. time's running out. president biden should not run again in 2024, that's what ignatius wrote. that now is an urgent call to all democrats, get him out. third hour of "varney" starts right now. ♪ ♪ if. ♪ ♪ stuart: martha maccallum is joining us here in new york city this morning. is this first move in an effort to get him out? >> it's a big deal. good morning, everybody. great to be with you. i think when david ignatius has a headline that says that it's the time for president biden to step aside -- and i love the way you put that the in that the intro, because essentially you boiled down this editorial. he says there are two pro
