president joe biden. kevink has a look at mr biden's week ahead. >> reporter: president biden had hoped to enter 2022 under far more normal circumstances. instead, this surge in coronavirus cases is really testing his ability to contain the pandemic and to reassure americans that there may be an end somewhere in sight. right now his strategy is focused on surging resources to states where hospitals have felt the strain. and also to bolster testing resources to try to ease those long lines at testing sites and delays in results that americans are seeing around the country. so ten days ago, the president promised that there would be 500 million at-home antigen tests that americans would be available to order line. still a lot of questions about those tests. we do expect to learn more about that at the end of this week. the federal government is also opening a testing site in new jersey. that opened on saturday. they're going to open testing sites in washington, d.c. and philadelphia, as well. now, the other thing

is a tough one for the white house, kevin, and the new polling shows that people are pointing the finger at the white house. do you approve or disapprove of the way joe is handling the economy. approve 34%. disapprove 57%. kevin, what does the white house do with those numbers? >> well, shannon, this is obviously a serious concern for the president and this administration. inflation as said, is one of the cruellest tax increases because as steve knows well it affects more often the middle and lower income families in the country. that's a horrifying statistic that we saw over the course of last year but obviously that's a direct result of this pandemic. the pandemic totally upended our economy, not just our economy but the world's economy and shuffled the priority between goods and services so we weren't taking vacations. we weren't going to gyms. we weren't spending those kind of money on those kinds of things. there is a penitentiaries up demand for goods during the pandemic and that's what we're seeing with this rise in inflation. i'm hopeful as the president said in his address that we've seen a two-month decline in inflation. hopefully we're see

joining the panel is kevin corke. joertainly getting more negative press now, but as somebody who covered the trump white house, would you say the coverage today is still largely sympathetic? >> no question about that, howie. i think the white house would acknowledge that while the press generally has been compliant in getting their message out, i think they would also acknowledge that when you have misstep after misstep, it's not going to be easy to sort of control the narrative. you can talk about crime, afghanistan, the struggling economy and, yes, the covid response. but i think what white house sources have told me repeatedly is listen, kevin, this is summed up in a single sentence, it's a moving target: it's sort of like whack-a-mole, if you will. they're hopeful that the press will be fair in acknowledging when things do get better. of course, whether or not the political damage is lasting or not remains to be seen, howie. howard: the presidency is always confronted with moving targets. gayle, joe biden was never g

kevin hot, mike bowman cold embarrassment for joe biden. this week at a news conference the president was asked about the reco inflation currently blighting the united states with one journalists getting back more than he expected . oh as well. it was a nasty boost baby and befitting the president, but that is imagine he was, he was stressed right he, he, he needed an outlet, but silly moment we will have moments like that. but the issue here is the subject . neither not is inflation because there are, there are 2 explanations for what but, and said the 1st is that perhaps he was kidding. you know, he was angry. this is an outlet, again, again for his stress, for his ag and the, the 2nd option which is even scarier is that he actually believes that inflation is a great asset. i'm you felt right. you felt that the inflation that has gripped the world, not, not only of, of the past year, but over the past 2 years of the course of the pandemic. you walk into a shop, you look at the process. this is, this is evelyn fuel, for our cars, clothes,

and so, again, joe biden has now got it fight after so many fights that he couldn't win that he can. >> kevin russell, you clerked for justice breyer in the mid-1990s. you know him well. what do you think tipped the scales for him to retire? >> i think he's publicly said for a long time he didn't want to die on the court. he is getting up in years. i agree with other folks who suggested that he doesn't want to have the experience that justice ginsburg had. he cares deeply about the court and about his legacy at the court and i'm sure doesn't want to be replaced by somebody who has dramatically different views about the law than he does. at the same time, i'm sure it pains him that his retirement timing is going to be perceived as at least in part motivated by these political considerations. he more than hardly, more than any other justice, believes and wants the public to understand that the court is not a partisan political institution. and he thinks that the public's perception of it as a political institution undermines its legitimacy and he's been very concerned that this is undermining t

joe biden as president. elizabeth: house minority leader kevin mccarthy anticipates over 30 democrats will leave the house before republicans will open investigations into the border crisis, the botched exit from afghanistan. we're also hearing potentially using terrorist firepower meant for, to go after al qaeda to go after school board parents. listen to house minority leader mccarthy here. watch this. >> that number 25 is a very big number for democrat retirements. in 2010 when we won the majority, 17 democrats retired. already 25. i expect that number to be up to over 30 democrat retirements because they see what the future holds. they see what the numbers. our recruiting is better than ever before. the number of conservatives running across, conservative women and others. remember in the last election why everybody said we predicted we would lose 15 seats. we beat 15 democrats. every democrat lost to a republican woman, a republican minority, or a republican veteran. we need people to join with us to be able to fire nancy pelosi. elizabeth: he also wants to remove eric swalwell and adam schiff who have of h

even if means something as basic as joe biden fairly won the election. >> what about kevin mccarthy signaling takes over he'll strip democrats of their committee positions. >> an interesting preview here of a potential republican-controlled house next year, which appears more likely than not, if you look at the tide of history and the fact that president biden's approval rating is low. mccarthy is suggesting he'll use the precedent that democrats set to try to throw democratic member, if democrats are the minority off committee assignments. adam schiff of california, ill han omar minnesota. one thing that is -- they are conservatives of conservative media. it's no coincidence as mccarthy taughts to breitbart when he previewed what he was going to do, if he becomes speaker of the house in a year. >> thank you very much. >>> up next a hearing on the u.s. response to omicron leads to another tense exchange between dr. fauci and senator rand paul. ense exchange between dr. fauci and senator rand paul. >> do you think it's appropriate to use your $420,000 salary to attack scientists. >> i think in

kevin corke monitoring a tense situation for us tonight. >> joe biden said today he told russian presidentdimir putin that the u.s. would deploy thousands of troops to eastern europe if moscow continues its military buildup along ukraine's border or a renewed invasion of the country. however, biden also said he would not send american troops into ukraine. >> i've made it clear to president putin that we have a sacred obligation to our nato allies. if he continues to build up, we would be reinforcing those troops. >> you're good to hear a lot about article five in the days ahead, let me give you brief explanations. it's actually a cornerstone of the nato organization and it states that an attack on one member of nato is an attack on all of its members. ukraine, by the way, is not a nato member but it wants to be and is considered a partner of the alliance. >> there will be enormous consequences if you were to go in and invade as he could the entire country, or a lot less than that as well. >> important addition to his comment right there, four countries so far have pulled out diplomatic sta

right now mitch mcconnell and kevin mccarthy want to talk about how bad joe biden is in their opinion do in 2022. donald trump is preventing them from getting the best candidates to run in swing districts because he only wants those who are true trump believers. so it's a little more difficult now for the establishment republicans who want to win back the majorities. >> i'm going to zou put on your political scientist hat, but i know you never take off, but what does it mean for this party if republicans who would rather distance themselves from trump instead decide, all right, i'm out, i'm done? >> you know, i think that what we've seen in the arc of history is when the pendulum swings too far to one extreme, it starts to come back. i'm not saying we reached that one extreme in terms of the republican party having gone so far to the conservative side, to the trump brand of conservetism, but i think you're starting to see pockets of that. i'm thinking of my former state, texas, where somebody who was such a die-hard trump supporters, attorney general james paxton, is starting to get a

which larry summers, democrat, and other democrats, and i agree, kevin hasad and i agree, that's what triggered this massive inflation. joe biden is hanging tough on this $5 trillion package. i believe we are going to kill the bill. t if left to his own devices, biden will be a disaster. we have a problem. interest rates ares, going to go up, the federal reserve is going to have to switch policies to much tighter money.in that's going to damage the economy. it is not going to be easy or a soft landing. it's probably going to hit in '23 and '24. i mean it. >> there is only one way to deal with inflation at this point right? you have to raise the interest rates. everybody understood this, that this day was coming. if trump were still president we wouldn't have had to deal with this. we don't have trump. we have biden. >> but we still have trump's ideas and policies for those that continue them. biden can attack supply siders but you tell me let any sane ordinary, middle american wonderful blue collar person tell me how is it that spending $5 trillion and raising $2lu trillion or $3 trillion in taxes, how is that going to he

kevin mccarthy said that since? >> don't think so. maybe he said joeen is president but none of the parts about donald trump being responsible. here's the important thing i would like to add onto that quote, nicolle. that isn't just political rhetoric. a lot of us can imbue the notion that donald trump was responsible for january 6th. of course many many public signs that point that direction. his behavior points to responsibility. a lot of politicians said that he had responsibility on both sides of the aisle at least in that first week. kevin mccarthy is different because he has direct evidence that donald trump knew he was responsible. i think that is the important thing about that phone call, the one that jamie herrera butler testified to, that he just referenced in the second impeachment trial, you know, where -- where trump told mccarthy essentially that he is on the side the domestic terrorists to use a phrase ted cruz used, that he is on the side of the people who were storming the capitol, and that it was kevin who was the one that was wrong b

[applause] mr. mccarthy: i thank all the members for being here. we would have everybody be outside but it was just weather, a little bad if you go back one year ago, it wasn't just the swearing in of president biden. it was the majority of the democrats having congress and then having the senate. one party having socialist party for the year. for two hours the president blamed everyone but himself. biden used to say the buck stopped with him. but not anymore. this isn't about the president, this isn't about the democrats. this should be about america. the americans out there that worked hard, that have gone through a pandemic, a rough economy. you would think they would focus on them. but the democrats' very first bill, h.r. 1, the one they put the most importance on, was surely only about the democrats maintaining power. if we look at the accomplishments, we got an economy that's damaged, we've got cities and streets that are dangerous. we have adversaries that feel embowdenned -- emboldened. is t

same week that inflation hits a 40 or high and joe biden approval rating it happens in the same way that they want to go after the republican leader kevinc carthy. and then third, it's obvious to me it's long past time for the republicans party to kick liz cheney and adam can secure. of winning back the house majority to save the country tells you that they are batting for the other team and they don't longer. >> congressman meadows, you handed over 9,000 documents you tried to cooperate, but also strike the balance the presiden is invoking what he should vote. if the president doesn't have executive privilege, there's nobody in the white house that will give him straightforward honest advice on tough controversial issues. but you tried and look what happens as a result. they go the extra mile trying t help in those areas that were nonprivileged, but exactly if w do away with executive privilege , even after the fact, what you'll find as a chilling effect on any chief of staff. bravo to jim banks and jim jordan for fighting this fight. >> bravo to you as well. as a reminder, the new book the chief chief, amazon.com bookstores everywhere

. >> joe biden a member of the democratic party will be making the points. it's important to remember that mitch mcconnell, kevin mccarthy, lindsey graham, also laid blame on donald trump. >> that's right. but they have sense backed off. they don't like to talk about president trump's role. they realize the power he still has over their party. >> we are told that vice president harris will be speaking momentarily. she has begun so let's listen in. >> where they were and what they were doing when our democracy came under assault. dates that occupy not only a place on our calendars but a place in our collective memory. december 7, 1941. september 11, 2001. january 6, 2021. on that day, i was not only vice president elect. i was also a united states senator. i was here at the capitol that morning at a classified hearing with fellow members of the senate intelligence committee. hours later the gates of the capitol were breached. i had left but my thoughts immediately turned not only to my colleagues about you to my staff who had been forced to seek refuge in our office converting filing cabinets into barricades. wha

joe manchin. manchin scuttled build back better. the house select committee investigating the january 6th attack says it wants to talk to california congressman kevinwant him to tell the world what he spoke about when he spoke to donald trump the day of the attack. mccarthy says he will not cooperate. these things usually start with a request and then it goes to a subpoena. as for what else is going on, social media talking about a post from mike lindell, the may pillow guy. he says he has enough evidence of voter fraud to lock away a lot of americans. >> you're talking about evidence. we had enough evidence to put everybody in prison for life, 300 and some million people. we have that all the way back to november and december. >> so lindell says 300 million americans. that would be all of the people who voted for biden and all of the people who voted for trump, plus about 150 million more americans, more than the entire adult population of the united states. we look at what people say and then we fact check it. on twitter you'll find me at scott mcgrew. >>> happening today, governor newsom will be in the south bay later this morning where he'll ta

joe manchin. remember, it was manchin who scuttled build back better. >>> the house select committee investigating the january 6th attack says it wants california congressman kevin mccarthy to participate and tell the world what he spoke about with president trump the day of the attack. mccarthy says he will not cooperate. the committee may subpoena mccarthy but it starts with a simple request to show up and escalates from there. social media talking about a post from mike lindell, the my pillow guy, who says he has enough evidence of voter fraud to lock away a lot of americans. >> we have enough evidence to put everybody in prison for life, 300 and some million people. we have that all the way back to november and december. >> i think you've heard that. lindell says he has evidence to lock away 300 million americans for life. 158 million americans voted in the 2020 election, so that would be all of them, both the biden voters and the trump voters plus about 154 million americans, which is more than the entire adult population of the united states. find me on twitter. >>> contra costa county is the latest county to add a team of mental health professionals to it

joe biden to account. this is the kind of aggressive politics that the republican grass roots wants to see. the extent kevincticing politics here, it serves two purposes. it keeps donald trump happy but there is a lot of grass roots candidates, donors, activists around the country like right on, brother. this is exactly what we want to see you do. >> ana, quickly, how are you doing? >> from which of all the things i'm going through? on my third day of covid. >> covid-wise. >> i'm good. i got mild symptoms and look, my recommendation to anybody is because testing is so difficult in getting those at home kits are difficult, if you start feeling bad, if you start feeling a tickle in your throat, if you start feeling any symptoms, be conscious. be good to your fellow human and stay home and isolate and let's try to get this thing to stop. >> well, get better soon. thank you. thank you, ana, thank you scott, appreciate it. we'll be right back. and there isn't one definition of what well feels like. there are millions. johnson & johnson is building your world of well. we're having a baby, so the new law came at a

so did kevin cramer who is a trump ally said, yeah, you know, perfectly fine for him to say joe biden won the election. does that give you some hope and support for the big lie, which you yourself have challenged repeatedly could be waning in the midst of all this? >> well, i think it is -- i think, first of all, there is a difference between the average u.s. senator and the average republican in the u.s. house. we have seen this play out, the senators have been more willing to do some criticism on this, and to say what we all know to be the truth. they have six-year terms and you know the dynamics at play there. among the republican grassroots, no, if you look at the polling and sentiment on the ground among republican party activists out there, they still believe what donald trump has to say about this, and, you look at what kevin mccarthy is doing, his posture on this, that's a nod towards where the majority of the base of his party is. so i'm not surprised to see some of the senators saying what they're saying, but the party as a whole i think is really more in line with trump, ev

joe while helping their own dying networks. they need trump like our president needs metamucil. more term content helps boost ratings that are limber then kevincey thumbing through a victoria's secret catalog. cnn is going all in and you can blame them. consider the mess they are in. the network that spent more time last year covering their ass than the news in zero time covering up jeffrey toobin's wiener. their star anchor fired in disgrace. arrested are implicated in sex crimes. no wonder they couldn't cover that story. it hit too close to home i guess. so gas bags like brian stelter gorge on january 6. they've been wrong so many times on so many things that they need january 6 more than alec baldwin needs an nra instructor. it's really about shelf space. the libs have nothing to sell. biden's horrendous performances creating a in the supply chain for other new stories. all they have is doom and gloom, inflation, crime, covid, the border. that is all they have to fill their shelves. is it any wonder. what coordination it is. you have the new republic, "usa today," ap, daily beast, "l.a. times," hollywood reporter. other than being covered

kevin. >> [laughs] exactly right. >> i'm an eternal optimist when it comes to the present. >> harris: i know you are. >> [laughs] >> don't count joethis is a political eternity, as gianno knows. democrats have a long way to flip the script when it comes to conversations about the economy, which is in very good shape aside from the inflation issue that we are still trying to grapple with. but we are seeing some of the best economic indicators that we have seen in 40 years with regard to unemployment. 17% jump in our christmas spending over last year. that is a great increase. so democrats just have to tout a lot of the great things we are seeing and get the message out to the american people. >> harris: what happens when it starts rolling in? from when i'm reading they still have it signed the agreement to put those covid tests into the mix so they can speed up the production and get that half-billion amount of tests into the bloodstream of america. what happens if and when that doesn't happen? you talk about inflation like it's a small thing. well, it's not, but you're right, it's not as bad as what we are facing right now with th
