jacqui, you don't know anything about that, do you. >> jacqui: nothing at all. several red flags for democrats, a drop in support from minority voters, hand-in-hand with the gop running a more diverse field of candidates, including in connecticut, republican george logan is looking to upset the incumbent. karl rove standing by with analysis, but mollie line is on the campaign trail in connecticut, what is the status of the race there? >> good morning, jacqui. you know, this race is very competitive. it was not meant to be, but it's turning out that way. the incumbent democrat may have a bit of an edge here but the republican candidate making this a very, very close contest. congresswoman johanna hayes, the first black woman to serve in the u.s. house from connecticut when she won in 2019, but gop nominee, george logan, black man, son of guatemalan immigrants. hayes, a former educator, teacher of the year in 2018 is welcoming big names like vice president kamala harris who came here to discuss reproductive healthcare. logan is running as a moderate. pragmatic new

jacqui heinrich at the white house on what this strategy is. what do you think, jacqui? >> it's hard to say, neil, what exactly the strategy is. the press secretary was asked why the president isn't going to a more contentious state like arizona if he's going on a western swing. why not hit some of those areas where democrats vying for re-electioning are having a tougher job. but this event in colorado is going to be really a favor to senator michael bennett who it was a big priority of his to get this site dedicated as a national memorial, cape hale is a world war ii military site. the president used his executive powers to bypass congress because similar bills have repeatedly stalled in the senate. they have not been able to sort of advance that legislatively. so the president using hills executive power to deliver on that promise. the other half of it is that it's going to dedicate ten mile range of mountain range that is prized by hikers and climbers, also within this national monument and the president proposed as well withdrawing 225,000 acres of land in the thomps

fox news jacqui heinrich live at the white house with the latest for us. hi, jacqui.ter: good afternoon to you. i want a read a statement just moments ago came in from the president and for the first time along with you. president biden saying that the united states strongly condemns russia missile strikes today across ukraine including kyiv. these attacks killed civilians with mo military purpose. they demonstrate the utter retaliation of the putin's war on ukrainian people. the attacks further reinforce our commitment to stand with the people of ukraine as long as it takes. that is an interesting line. alongside our allies and partners will continue to impose costs for the aggression. hold russia accountable for a a trot disses calling for russia to end the unprovoked aggression. this is the newest statement we received from the president especially as he made those comments last thursday night at a fund-raiser, ratcheting up the rhetoric around the possibility that we may see vladmir putin use a tax call nuclear weapon in the future. we had not heard anything from

jacqui. reporter: it's a big issue for everyone, and an issue, neil, the president has a tough time tackling. the saudis now are warning the president without naming names it's a pretty bad idea to sell the nation's strategic oil reserves to bring down gas prices to manipulate the markets. saudi arabia is saying we could really regret that decision in a few months time. you might think the white house would respond to that in some sort of way but instead the president is talking about banks, airlines, credit card companies, hotels and fees that they charge unnecessarily that increase costs for american consumers. he says it is going to put money back in peoples pockets going after those american companies, making sure those junk fees as they're called, do not run rampant. he says it will save consumers a billion dollars a-year. certain industries are guilty than others like imposing them, credit card lake payment fees, bank overdraft, non-sufficient funds fees, hotel resort fees and hidden fe

what is the treasury secretary now saying, jacqui, about what this could mean for inflation? >> nothing, john. even though administration officials have consistently pointed to soaring energy costs, data showing that is a main driver of inflation, but today treasury secretary janet yellen did not even try to finesse a response about what an opec production cut could mean for your wallet. >> i would think would lead to some concerns about soaring gas prices and also the impact on inflation. how worried are you about that? >> no comment. >> strategic reserve sales coming to an end and the senate from opec plus, likely be cutting production, may be the beginning of an upward trend in gas prices. 3.81, up from 3.75 a week ago. still down from the highest average we hit in june, 5.02 a gallon, but arizona, georgia, pennsylvania, wisconsin, numbers are not working in the party's favor and it's giving fodder to republicans who say biden's trip to saudi arabia to encourage opec plus to ramp up production wasted a lot more political capital than it was worth. >> so much for joe biden

neil: thank you for that, jacqui. south carolina congresswoman nancy mace.e makes latest findings, women look at the economy, not the whole roe v. wade decision. what do you think of that, congressman? >> we're seeing it. all the data points that the reporters just mentioned we've seen the same shift in the first congressional district in south carolina, neil. as i talked about repeatedly on your program that this is really a bellwether for the rest of the nation. it is a very purple district. we saw the generic ballot swing from leaning democrat this summer to favoring republicans this fall. we went from a single-digit lead this number now double-digit leads. we're seeing people peel off on issue of economy, on issue of inflation and jobs, looking at crime and immigration. we'll throw that in there too. abortion is a top issue but voters are making the decision in november three weeks from today about economic issues. they see the fallacy in the inflation reduction act, how it did not help immediate relief like the president and other democrats said this su

back to you. >> brian: all right, jacqui, thanks so much.nt has very few things he can do. beg strobz learn how to pump oil again. hope iran's oil back on the market or go back to the well, literally. >> stuart: ,. >> brian: take out our emergency fund. >> stuart: he won't do that because the greens went let him. he is releasing extra barrels from the petroleum reserve. by law as you pointed out steve, by law, congress says have you got to release 20 million barrels in fiscal year 2023 which has just started. in other words, you have got to take what is it. >> steve: 40 million barrels. >> stuart: got to come out. when you take that out, you drain the petroleum reserve. that is a national security issue. because that reserve is there just in case we need it in an emergency. >> steve: stuart, think about it. it's brilliant. if the strategic petroleum reserve is empty, another reason to buy an electric car. >> stuart: that's a stretch, isn't it steve, really? >> steve: you know his environmental left flank feels like that. we don't want any oi

let's go to jacqui heinrich on what we're likely to hear from the president. >> hi, neil. we're getting a closer picture of the strategy here at the white house. we've heard from the president before and seeing more of now telling voters that things will get worse with the economy if republicans take back control of congress. we got an unusual e-mail in the white house press core from andrew bates telling us to watch an interview that house minority leader kevin mccarthy is going to be doing with punch bowl next week. bates writes to us in an e-mail, kevin mccarthy continues to show cause how eager maga republicans are to make inflation worse if it minds a wind fall for rich special interests at the expense of the middle class families. nobody gives more compelling proof for the fact that republicans in congress would exacerbate inflation and sell hard working families out to special interests. it has not been a great week for this president on the economy. although today's preliminary consumer sentiment report showed better numbers than expected. there's still uncertainty

jacqui heinrich has more. >> hi, neil. we just wrapped up the briefing there. questions to the press secretary. we didn't called on today. there were no questions about whether or not president biden would meet with russian president vladimir putin after the russian foreign minister said the russians would accept the meeting with biden in the g-7 summit. so we don't know if there will be a meeting of the minds or the putin front. in terms of the g-7 resolution, we got a read-out of the president's call. the summary of that is more condemnation of what russia, what putin has been carrying out in the ukraine. also, a vow to hold president putin and those responsible to account for what they see as war crimes and innocent civilians being attacked. beyond that, we didn't get any answers from the president himself about how that call went today. we also have not had any questions to the president since he made those comments about armageddon at a fund raiser last thursday. he's not taken any questions from the press and we've heard from the national security council

want to bring in jacqui heinrich when the white house north lawn begins the coverage there. hello. >> good morning, bill. the president defended his decision to lean on the country's emergency stockpile not only blaming russia's war in ukraine but also going after the oil companies and saying that prices at the pump should be lower but they are raking in the profits. the ftc has found in evidence to support the president's price gouging allegations but now he is also deflecting criticism from the industry saying that he has not slowed u.s. production, even though his administration is leasing federal land to energy companies at a much slower pace and he is countering criticism over the stockpile releases claiming that there is plenty left. it's necessary right now to stabilize prices and there is a plan to buy it back when prices fall. critics are not moved. >> that's not a supply, that's a reserve. now he wants to take some more out of it. just before the election. no, that's not political motivation, not at all. but the fact is, we could have bought oil at 24 bucks a barre

here is white house correspondent jacqui heinrich. >> prices are still rising and consumers are stillgress and two economic reports released friday, the president's biggest challenge, inflation, remains. biden turned the focus to the g.o.p. writing the economic reports show we are making progress. congressional republicans agenda on the other hand is very different. it would drive up inflation and add to the deficit. >> we would all like to see inflation coming down quicker but i think there are signs, you know, even this week the numbers are showing either at expectations or below expectations. >> a met trick closely watched by the federal reserve showed inflation stayed hot in september but mostly within expectations. personal consumption expenditures climbed 6.2% compared to last year. stripping out volatile food and energy, core pc inflation increased 5.1% from the year prior. separately, the employment cost index showed waging and benefits climbed 1.2% from june to september. a quicker pace than the fed wants. no sign the labor market is loosening and rapid wage growth is moderat

hi, jacqui. >> hi, neil. the first glass, today's gdp report looks good. considerable gain from the first and second quarters of negative growth. that 2.6% is driven in large part by government spending and increased exports. experts believe that those could drop off in the fourth quarter. also, another warning sign. if you look at all three quarters together, the growth is only .4%. which is extremely slow. more over, consumer spending is slowing down. that makes up almost 70% of the u.s. economy. so maybe not on the whole as good as it looks at first glass. the president thinks things look fine. >> great economic report today. things are looking good. >> despite that optimism that the job market is strong and a recession is not inevitable, voters are pessimistic. a u.s. a today poll shows 2/3s say the nation is already in a recession or depression. 10% say it's in a recovery. 61% of people say they're eating out less often. 50% have postponed vacations. 47% have cut back on groceries and 45% are driving less. it's disproportionately affecting hispanics.

neil: great reporting, thank you, jacqui heinrich at the white house.the corner of wall and broad, we are at session highs so maybe they're hoping, praying or buying on the notion that maybe the worst is behind us. if we skirt a recession and we only have to worry about limited hikes in rates after the three-quarter percent hike expected next week, maybe we're off to the races and some of these company earnings even disappointing in the tech world is are a sign of things turning around. to steve moore on what he makes of this, former senior adviser to president trump. very smart man. you know, steve, perception becomes reality, and you're a great student of history. i'm reminded of george bush sr. in 1992 saying we're through the worst of it. ironically, he was proven right after the fact, but most americans didn't share that view and kicked his hinemy out -- hiney out of to value office. it's a different type of situation now, but could the administration be right to say we're getting through this? if it's falling on deaf ear9 nou make of it? >> well,

. >> john: jacqui heinrich is live on the north lawn. and what happens from here? >> hey, john. today's release is the last portion of the 180 million barrels that the president began selling about six months ago. what's concerning to the president's critics is his willingness to keep on dipping into the country's emergency stockpile, now sitting around a 40-year low and right now there is really no indication just how low the president and the white house is willing to go. >> we have over 400 million barrels, that's a lot of barrels, and we are going to use them if we need to. we want the industry to increase production right now so that their barrels, private sector barrels can come into the market. >> the white house is planning to buy back what they have already sold when prices fell back to between 67 and $72 a barrel, but keep in mind congressional democrats blocked a plan by former president trump to replenish reserves when oil was at around $24 a barrel. so that being said, this plan is going to cost a lot more than it once would have, and moreover, the white house claim

even to this day, you covered the jacqui mistake where is jacque an jacque passed away vey sadly.d professionalism. they cover for him. this can't be a moment extremely awkward, weird and concerning. it was professional and generous of him to do that and to call out jackie. when you have a press aiding and abetting you every step of the way this is what you get. >> jesse: find a girl that takes care of you the way the press takes care of joe biden. >> there you go. >> jesse: thank you so much, kayleigh. >> a great girl. thank you. >> jesse: a update in the waukesha parade mass murder trial. wait until you see this clown. >> show me your hands dude. put the baby down. put the kid down. put the kid down! i think i changed my mind about these glasses. yeah, it happens. that's why visionworks gives you 100 days to change your mind. it's simple. anything else i can help you with? like what? visionworks. see the difference. >> jesse: every parent's worst fear is something happening to their child the story out of florida is going to give you plenty of nightmares. a harrowing scene unfol

their neighborhoods, in the cities, in the bodegas, and of course you have just seen the report with jacquinrich when she is talking about the oil prices. hispanics aren't stupid especially those in texas who are you in really good oil jobs by the way. they know that these green new deal policies, i'm making grass and food prices much more expensive. this make it harder to raise the families, that is what they want. they don't sit around like alc, fretting about the weather channel change and whether they should have babies. they want babies, they want family, what they want to be able to studio for their babies and families. and then under the policy is coming out are making it harder and harder to have a family. by the way, last week, alc said that abortion is an economic issue to deal with to inflation. no it is not. hispanic women do not want to give their babies. they just want to be a video for their families. these policies not working, hispanics are waking up, but they're not welcome, but they're waking up. if democrats are for it. >> and rich are you k know know about me or anyone

jacqui heinrich has the story. >> it's been three consecutive days of tough economic readings, but don'tect any policy changes at the white house. >> the policies that we are doing to help mitigate and ease price pressures are having effect. look at goods inflation. it was flat if you take out energy. >> friday, the commerce department reported that sales were unexpectedly flat, households cutting back on buying cars, electronics limit stubbornly high inflation and rising interest rates. thursday, new data showed inflation jumped 8.2% from last year. largely driven by rising food, energy, housing costs. wednesday, the producer price index showed strong indication inflation has not peaked. by these critics, they blame his spending. >> biden came in and printed $4.1 trillion. this is uncomplicated, folks. >> tell people that the grass is not always greener. >> republicans win, inflation is going to get worse. it is that simple. >> the administration wants report is to say it too, pointing to an interview coming next week with kevin mccarthy, saying he continues to showcase how eager in mag

jacqui heinrich starts us off from the north lawn. >> there is no timeline on when the consequences for the saudis that the president biden talked about might come. he might want to consult with congress and they are out of session until after the midterms but officials here are starting to paint a bit clearer of a picture of what it all might look like. the white house getting vocal about how seriously the president is considering calls from congress to scale back arms sales to saudi arabia after opec plus rejected white house please and slashed production. >> that is going to be on the table, that will be an option the president looks at. the spate and the scale, the size, the whole program of arms sales. >> the news prompting a rare exchange of public jabs. saudi arabia rejecting u.s. accusations it has sided with russia for them in the production cuts as a purely economic and a decision taken unanimously by all member states of the opec plus group. the saudis further alleged the white house pushed for a one-month delay fueling speculation he wanted to pass off bad news until after t

. >> bret: jacqui heinrich live on the north lawn. thank you. that g.d.p. report sent the dow up today 194 points. the s&p 500 fell 23. the nasdaq lost 178. let's talk about the state of the economy with l lindsey chief economist. how do you read these numbers today? >> well, it certainly was a solid report. and a step in the right direction, giving us welcomed reprieve after six consecutive months of negative activity at the start of the year. but, when i look at today's report, i caution be against looking at this as an indication of upward momentum from here. this is likely a static temporary increase. predominantly driven by international trade and a -- some temporary supports for the consumer. again, rather than indicative of underlying momentum in the economy. so, again, while this was a welcomed step, it's likely the only positive quarter that we will see for quite some time going forward. >> bret: that's interesting. it matches what i heard on some other channels today from people who worked in different administrations. democratic administrations.

advocate that is embedded with the ground force that can translate ground speed into air force feature jacqui heinrich the ground force commander's intent to aircrew paid the tile is talking to the j check the pilot had found some disturbed earth in a field is not sure exactly what it is. she described it to the j check he's convinced it's a more to keep in mind they've been being fired up by mortars for several days. he is keyed up to find mortar tubes and destroy them. the spout and the sensor operator discuss with that of the crossers did it just does not look like a mortar tube. much more likely scenario is it is a shovel this is a field it is disturbed earth so it looks like someone was doing some shoveling and put down the shovel. j check for the spout to drop a bomb on the mortar tube and the pilot said no. we can do that in the u.s. military doctor because under u.s. military document pilot falls in our power chain of command to the combined forces commanded the land for skulls a chain of command up to the land forces component. so the army or the marine corps correction ground force

jacqui heinrich at the white house with more. reporter: neil, with strategic reserve sales set to come to an end this month, signal from opec they will be cutting production, this may be the beginning 6 an upward trend in gas prices. today's average for a gallon of regular is $3.80 up from a week ago. still down from the highest average we hit in june, 5.01 a gallon. in states where democrats are in tight midterm races arizona, georgia, nevada, pennsylvania, wisconsin, these numbers are not working in the democrat party's favor. giving fodder to republicans saying biden's trip to saudi arabia to encourage opec plus to up production wasted a lot more political capital than it was worth. >> so much for joe biden being able to transact with the saudis and in trying to use the influence of his bully pulpit with the world marketplace. but what we ought to do is bringing the prices down by producing a lot mower here in the united states of america. remember when we did that once, larry? it worked quite well. reporter: the country's str
