and president biden and montana democrat jon tester telling cnn the party is doing nothing for middle americat ten months ahead of the midterms. >> the national democratic brand, i think rule america generally is caught because quite frankly we don't show up and we are not willing to go places we are not wanted and answer questions. >> i would even say nine months but meth is not my specialty. >> todd: bernie sanders criticizing infection, a strong agenda was popular and people responded to the president's leadership. it is no secret for five months with the exception of infrastructure, we have not been addressing the needs of the american people. and bernie sanders, when you have lost him, you have lost a lot ashley strohmier. look, the key thing to take away and we talk about this, literally since the start of the presidency, this administration is being polled and has been bowled so far left by the woke d.c. elite that is completely out of touch with the american people. and it's not just republicans that they are out of touch with. as you heard doug tester say, you have a picture, the typ

not only reach out to middle america but rural america.farmers market without farmers. >> no question. we are seeing some course corrections or attempted course corrections by democratic governors lifting mask mandates, seeing the changing politics there. biden tfocusing more on crime ad inflation. >> americans have been an anti-tax rebellious small government people and democrats too often identified as the party of government and we should be a party of government that really works to help people and unless we can show we do that, we'll have a hard time at the polls. >> so one way to show how to do that, at least in the view of the president, democratic leaders, to pass the build back better act. not as it is. there's discussions about something pared down and biden talked about passing big chunks of it. can the party, does it have the votes to pass big chunks of it or even medium sized chunks of it before the midterms? >> jim, you know there's always more that can be done but look at the infrastructure bill. every president had promised

middle america loves these blockbuster films. "spiderman: no way home" is one of them. by film critics? some say yes, some say no. people were still surprised, we would love to see it be nominated. it is a marvel film, maybe that has something to do with it. but no major nods. ros: i wanted to ask about diversity. i know you are involved in diversifying how the golden globes goes about diversifying its awards. how do you assess the oscars nominations in those terms? >> every year we have some women and color of people breaking through. i'm a member of the hollywood foreign press association, and the lack of diversity is not just a problem there or at the academy, it is a problem in hollywood. what i want to see moving forward is people of color, particularly women, the nominated in all the categories, best picture, adapted screenplay, all of those categories. when we see 40% to 50% having people of color you will have reached a sort of equity. it was nice to see denzel washington be nominated for best actor category. aunjanue ellis, will smith. you had some people of co

now this is the same old democratic war on fossil fuels and middle america being smuggled into a dangerousw forum. washington democrats want to raise america's gas prices. they want to make electricity even less affordable. they want it to cost more to keep your family warm in the dead of winter. and now they want to do all this in a radical new fashion where voters could never hold them accountable. the stated justification for this power grab is that climate change may impact the future of our economy, so therefore, it's the fed's business. what nonsense with no limiting principle. every major policy could affect our economy. opening this pandora's box would transform the fed from an apolitical central bank into a hyperpolitical super legislature. it would turn the venerable institution that is supposed to safeguard the american dollar into enforcers for a radical agenda that can't make it through congress. so you better believe liberal activists are already acknowledging this would not stop with climate issues. they've got a whole list of ideological goals they'd like the fed to literal

not all that long lot of them and guess what, the fact is that wall street didn't build america, ordinary middleica. and manufacturing unions built the middle class. [applause] [applause] >> so, we are bringing manufacturing jobs back and taking supply chains black home so we have better jobs and lower prices and now instead of losing manufacturing jobs, and since i came to office, public congressional delegation, we have added 375,000 manufacturing jobs in one year.

that means that americans and middle america will start paying $6.00 per gallon. well, bite and told me, i gotta do this to get freedom in ukraine. he's going to lose the american people more than he already has. it was just a new, a people that came out showing that only 26 percent of americans, americans want united states to get difficultly involved in the russia. you can crisis, the american people don't support it. they don't want to spend $6.00 for gas, for biden, to bring freedom to ukraine, or it's a calculated move. it's a political disaster. and in my view and the republicans, if they had any sense, they would tie him and he's ukraine policy. and it's 6 to all a guess, but like you point out more on like ted cruz just love war and the republicans are full of such morons. well, and that's awesome. really comes down to these politicians who say that there for the american people. if gas prices and inflations for american was this major concern of president biden, should have by to be doing the exact opposite of what he's and he is doing. which is escalatin

i now understand how middle america has been demonized in the past where they were called gun toting bible, thumping people like you have to demonize them to create the impression that they are unable or an intellectual enough to govern themselves. and it's what you see happening here in the idea of denigrating truckers and writing them off as extremist white. nationalists, selfish people who have a very solitary profession. it's a tough profession. they're away from their families. if they have them, it's difficult to have families. if they don't, they are the backbone of canadian society and american society. it's like the fly over country, and you had to demonize them. because historically, you've always had a political ruling class and a subservient class and its own the democracy of the west is relatively new, is relatively unique and relatively unnatural. and we just see people reverting back to the old school ruling class, political intellectual elite who know better than the lowly, hopefully, and get to tell them what to do. and when they start speaking for themselves, then t

now claiming that middle america seized this by the administration as toxic. now it comes as i watering. inflation is really hitting people hard in their pockets. and polls now suggested republicans are indeed set to win big and the crucial mid term elections . let's get some more details here. our correspondent is caleb martin. well, it's just 10 months until we have the mid term elections, where americans will go to the polls around the country and elect a new congress. and right now things don't look so good for the democrats. and we actually have prominent democrats in the us senate and other figures in the democratic party speaking up about the problems that lay ahead for their organization, the national democratic brandy. and i think in rural america generally is toxic. and it's because, quite frankly, we don't show up what we're doing here in congress. i think it's no great secret that for 5 months, with the exception of the infrastructure, we have not been addressing the needs of the american people. now, the congressional poll trackers that predict el

biden was once seen as the guy who could go to middle america, some of the swing district and be an asset. that is no longer the case. i do not think you will be seeing him campaigning in many swing states are swing districts for this midterm cycle. host: let's chat with a few callers. this is lewis, tar heel state, line for democrats. caller: top of the morning to c-span and america. i understand a lot of people want to try to downplay biden at this moment. i think he is doing an outstanding job for what he has to work with. republican senators do not want to vote on anything, anything. the democrats are pulling the load. the democrats vote on saving our government from a shut down, we have two democrats that you not want to go in on it. my question is this. are the republicans that are running, and all of these gerrymandering states and counties they will carve out, can you tell me how much that will play into if the republicans do happen to take the house, not the senate but take the house, and what you think about these voting restrictions in these voting suppressions and these one ba

senator john tester saying the party is doing nothing for middle america, 10 know months, nine monthsection. >> national democratic brand in rural america in general is toxic and it is because quite frankly we don't show up, we're not willing to go places we are not wantd and answer questions. >> todd: major admission from tester. bernie sanders criticizing lack of action saying we started off with a strong agenda that was popular and people responded to the president's leadership. for five months with exception of infrastructure, we have not been addressing the needs of the american people. >> millions of americans are looking forward to super bowl sunday and food that goes along with it. with inflation and rising food prices, restaurants are struggling to keep up. >> ashley: matt farrow, from wing it. prices increased 50% -- and then $3.55 per pound in february of 2022. you guys, wing it did well during the pandemic, have you had to increase prices since inflation took off? >> thanks for having me, yes, we did increase prices throughout 2021. i have shocking news, for the first time

honestly don't think the democratic party can be a majority party unless we start appealing to middle america a lot more. the area between the two mountain ranges. and if we're able to do that, i think it will provide success. >> harris: sean duffy is on the mezzanine with me. fox news contributor and former wisconsin congressman and i just want to welcome you. we've been feathering back. thank you for being with me today. >> this is the mez? >> harris: right. let's start with where the president is and the reality when someone is suffering. you have run campaigns, you have won. what does it mean when someone suffers this badly in the minds of voters? >> what you think of a politician. you have your principle and the policy priorities. if you get it this wrong with the voter you change course. maybe there is a different tack i should take. i think what is happening here joe biden is not running the show. he brought in the globalist leftist elitist. i think old joe biden would change course. these folks don't care about the polls. they care about truly changing the course of america. fundament

. >> middle america loved his commentary and his lack of judgment. never expressing an opinion. that was his strong point. he was a straight down the line journalist. >> to say we are closer to victory today is to believe in the face of the evidence the optimists who have been wrong in the past. to say we are on the edge of defeat is to yield to unreasonable pessimism. to say that we are mired in stalemate seems the only realistic yet unsatisfactory could not class. >> that's when lyndon johnson said, if i have lost walter cronkite, i've lost the country. >>> america is shocked and saddened by the slaying of dr. martin luther king. >> 1968, historians say it was the single most consequential year of the 20th century. >> that's when the country all but came apart. >> ten hours before he is about to address the nation on the future, he hasn't made the decision. >> he said i may have a little ending of my own. >> good evening, my fellow americans. >>> lbj is becoming more and more isolated. he's an island in the white house. >> hey, hey, lbj, how many k

i don't think it can be a democratic party unless we appeal to middle america a lot more.iticism getting through to democratic candidates in the fall? >> well, here's the problem. jackie pointed out there are primaries coming up for democrats too and primaries have since time immemmorium, reward that you their bases and then alexandria ocasio-cortez, elizabeth warren, people on the far left of the democratic party. that's not where races are typically won. look, in montana, that's a hard state to hold if john tester isn't in that seat. in west virginia. whatever democrats think of joe manchin, no other democrat can get elected statewide through the senate other than joe manchin. same thing, arizona. very tough place for democrats to win. i know they have two democratic senators right now but no luck joe biden won by less than 20 votes in 2020. some of the most prominent voices are people who never have to worry about the general election but maybe a primary and i thinker, jim cooper, some of the things joe manchin said speak to that. they have in the middle and hard to do

in other words, middle america, the people who make work.ocrat party in this country needs to be crushed. and i want the american people to understand something. you have it within your power to take this country back. they will not be crushed unless you crush them. i am talking to people, i don't care what your races. i don't care where you come from. the american people do not hate this country the way that aoc does. they do not hate this country the way kamala harris does. we love this country. you know how i know it? we have all -- or we all pack up and go somewhere else. our borders are overrun with people who want to escape their lousy cultures to come here. we have a democrat party that hates this country that wants to centralize power. they want to destroy the voting system. eliminate the importance of citizenship, it limited the importance of state sovereignty. we know exactly what we are dealing with. they have this fossilized leadership in nancy pelosi. footnote. we republicans, and i confess i am a republican, we have fossilized

they learned in the years after the murder/rape of jenni bastian, robert washburn blended into middle americag at his door? he voluntarily gave them a dna sample. >> now, more than three decade after that terrible day in the park. washburn was arrested, at home. and then, the new cold-case detective spoke with him. how did he react? >> he was scared. he was very nervous. he was sweating. he asked me, is this about that swab i gave the fbi a year ago? and then, he told me, i didn't kill that little girl. >> with washburn in handcuffs, it was time to let jenni's mom know. and that job went to retired detective wade. >> so, of course, i had rehearsed what i was going to say. and -- and it all went out the window by the time i got there. couldn't remember what i was going to say. >> and she walked in. i could tell she had been crying. and she said -- >> we got him. and that's really all i could say. >> the next thing we were doing is crying and hugging each other. >> yeah. >> after 32 years, jenni's alleged killer was finally in custody. but what about michella's murderer? his identity was, still

you hear it oftentimes when you pit middle america versus everybody else or working class versus everybody else. the over arching theme is still the same. this is something i identified last night and something the white house and this administration have to do a better job, hearing the pain of americans. whether or not you are driving a truck or whether or not you're trying to make sure your kids go to school or whether or not you are wanting the president to deliver things that you know would curb inflation because the price of flounder and whiting are too high at the pigly wiggly. all of these things are converging together. now, one thing i want people to be extremely clear about, as we make these arguments. we're on cnn and we can be nuanced. there is no similarity between what happened two summers ago and what is happening today. i will tell you civil disowe bead questions is a righteous act. even if i disagree with it and think your premise for it is wrong. but civil disobedience is as american as american can be. >> we were talking about the pain americans are feeling. one of the t

for joining us, i'd like to start with that question, a lot of people may be watching this in middle americated states care about this crisis? as i sat, and i know you have served in the state department. the u.s. does not promote and defend democracy everywhere in the world. you know that our allies around the world are some of the most undemocratic countries on this planet. why do we suddenly care about democracy in ukraine? >> first of all, it's not a sudden care. we have been -- we have been working, supporting ukrainians, and ukrainian democracy for three decades, and this has been true, by the way, ayman, across the political spectrum. it has been right and left. republicans and democrats, it's been house and senate. it has been through administration republican, administration democratic, we have been supporting ukraine as it tries to develop its own democracy, and its own way getting into europe, trying to get away from russia, and getting away from where it came from out of the soviet union. so there are a couple reasons why we should care. and the first is, that this is the front l

honestly don't think the democratic party can be youjority party unlessde start appealing to middle america a lot more . >> yeah, yeah.hi thanks, john. it's a little late. where's were you last spring? lastas summer and last fall? he think montanans are stupid. they know phony when they see one they tuned outon biden and they're going toy tune out tester as well. but the abandonment of biden isn't just happening on the homefront. of course our allies are also moving on from him. just recently, french, french emmanuel macron decided to bypass the bumbling biden altogether and then go on toet have his own meeting with vladimir putin to diffuse the ukraine situation. it's obvious what happened here . european leaders saw biden as a problem, not a solution. kind of a bull in a china shop s but biden in a chinaho. soit they felt that they had to rush in to de-escalate. as how embarrassing for america getting briefed and orderedar around by the french but not e any more embarrassing than america being left in the dust b by the chinese under biden, our overall trade deficit ballooned to an all tim

i tell you who built america: the middle class.nd the people who built the middle class are organized labor, unions, union. unions did it. that's not hyperbole. that's a fact. that's a straight fact. and the executive order i'm going to sign today is going to help ensure that we build a better america, we build it right, and we build it on time, and we build it cheaper than it would have been otherwise. you know, the executive order is making sure that federal construction projects get completed on time and under budget, saving taxpayers money, clearing construction zones quickly, and ensuring that everything the federal government signs to contract to build is built to last. you guys really, genuinely, are the best in the world. not, that's not hyperbole. it's a fact. to do, to do that, we're using a tool that ironworkers here know very well, called project labor agreements. i know you all know it, but folks who may be watching this may not fully understand it. simply put, these are agreements that contractors, sub-contractors, an

this the same old democratic war on fossil fuel and middle america smuggled into a dangerous new form. why should democrats raise america's gas prices? they want to make electricity even less affordable, they want it to cost more to keep your family warm in the dead of winter and now they want to do all this in a radical new fashion where voters could never hold them accountable. justification for this paragraph is climate change may impact the future of our economy so therefore it's the feds business. nonsense with no limiting principle. every major policy could affect our economy, opening the box but transformed the fed from a political central bank into hyper political super legislature. it would turn the institution supposed to safeguard the american dollar into enforcements for a radical agenda that can't make it through congress. you better believe liberal activists are acknowledging this would not stop climate issues. they got a whole list of ideological goals they like the fact to literally force on our country. democrats introduced legislation to assign the fed's permission o

america's screaming, stop. >> that is exactly right. most of the mainstream media is not focused on what concerns of middle-class america.t, joe biden inherited from donald trump are rapidly recovering economy. all he had to do is sit on his hands and take credit for the prosperity of america coming out of the pandemic. but he could not do that. he had to sort of follow the globalist elitist point of view. pumped $6 trillion into an economy when we had a labor shortage she decided to curb fossil fuel. that is why prices are up across the board. we have seven to half% inflation and gas prices are 40% high. americans are suffering like it is 1982. elizabeth: everybody gets the capitol rights were bad, they were wrong it should never happen again for the social justice riots of 30 should never happen again. nbc is reporting on its website, it is criticizing obama saying stop talking to democrats this is outside the political norms. it is unseemly. obama saying you're going to face major losses in the mid term you should tout your record, democrat, what's the record question a short record crime, record inflation, wrecking c

how important was tupac to it and who else do you point to as pushing it toward middle america?s a meaningful event to this ascending culture, rap music, that was overtaking rock as the mainstream understanding of hot music for young people. but there was an idea that somehow it would never be taken seriously, that it would always be seen as something that was outside of itself. i think time has kind of proven the opposite. the thing that you mentioned though about growing up in the '90s, that is kind of one of the interesting problems in doing a book this way. i realize there's a huge percentage of the people who read this book and they'll remember the '90s very vividly, like it just happened to them. like it will almost see as though i'm describing their life to them. where another person who was born into the '90s or born later, they will see these events no differently than the moon landing or some historical event that predates them. it was complicated to figure out how to present the information in a way it would be cultural criticism for people who experienced and exposit

being constantly thrust into the middle of america's culture wars battle field. mistake. this is not an isolated action. across the country we're seeing republican leaders take actions to regulate what students can or cannot read, what they can or cannot learn, and, most troubling, who they can or cannot be. cynically treating our students as pawns in a game. pawns. do you agree? if they aren deed pawns as they suggest i am frankly afraid to guess what is really the end game. all over the country the gamesmanship of culture wars are enveloping our schools whether the hysteria over critical race theory, teaching about race or racism in american history, alabama approved resolution that bans the teaching of so-called divisive concepts associated with critical race theory. as if children need to be shielded from learning about racial inequality or as if critical race theory was ever part of any elementary school curriculum. i believe the course you might be referring to only has one word -- history. now, virginia's new governor sets a tip line for parents in any quo

it's bad enough there in the middle east, latin america, africa, central asia. okay. we don't have time for this list. the point is we can have our national security establishment attempting to sway domestic politics and allies. they were peddling, grew out of the fraudulent steel dossier, a document full of damming, but made up details about trump name for its author, christopher steele, the former, and my 6. by then, there was the case of hunter biden's laptop with former spies labeling the disclosures a russian information operation with no evidence de, legitimize in the reporting, and leading to news outlets to call it russian dis information. and of course it turned out to laptops, contents where legit and had nothing to do with russian. this information that who had a thoughts, a group of professionals spies could be so disingenuous. now let me be clear and my defending donald trump. no. it sound like the cia had been conspiring against trump because they just couldn't stand his hurtful rhetoric. they viewed him as a threat to the security establishment. this wa
