and the latest npr pbs poll. >> 47% of americans surveyed approve of the job he's doing as president, from the 39% approval rating he had in the same poll last month. last time biden had a higher approval rating was in august when it was 49%. a president can sometimes get a bounce after a state of the union. one of more than one of more than 4 points in an npr poll has happened only 6 times since 1978. >> florida governor ron desantis says that he will sign a 15 week abortion ban into law after florida's legislature join the trend of republican led states anticipating a u.s. supreme court decision that could sharply limit abortion rights in america. that new law will make it to the strictest such ban in state history. florida currently allows abortions until 24 weeks with fewer restrictions than other southers southern states. the republican backed proposal. state senators passed yesterday does not include exceptions for rape or incest. it models a mississippi law that's become the subject of a supreme court case that could severely affect abortion rights nationwide. >> meanwhile, sta

me to talk more are amy walter of "the cook political report with amy walter," and tamara keith of npr. tam, let's start with you, welcome back to a frigid washington from your trip with the president. you heard those words in warsaw, you heard what president biden said today that this was his sort of moral judgment and not u.s. policy. do you understand what he meant and what does it tell us about the white house right now? >> well, it was definitely a double take moment when he said that, at the very end of this speech t was clearly and sources have concerned, and i think now the president himself has confirmed that that was not part of the prepared remarks, not part of the plan. in many ways that phrase, that sentence is in conflict with the whole rest of the speech that he was trying to give where he was trying to convince the allies and the american people that this is going to be a long conflict that they are going to have to seal themselves for, that this is bigger than russia and ukraine, that this is about sort of a global battle, a generational battle between democracies and

the npr pbs marist poll that was out last week showed the number one for -- concern for americans ison, something he will have to talk a lot about. that is the top anxiety right now for the majority of americans. geoff: a quick question about the polling. when you look at the data, you look at the numbers on the way the questions in the polls are actually framed, our americans by and large, the folks who are polled, are they dissatisfied with president biden's leadership? or are they, americans generally just in a dour mood going into year three of the pandemic, given the inflation and they are projecting the mood onto the guy in charge? >> that is a big piece of it. the president made his first joint address toongress about 10 months ago in april, and americans were feeling much more optimistic than. the president spent a lot of time talking about the success of the vaccines. now, he comes in with, vaccines that have been successful but the public is very much divided over mandates, over masking, frustrated about covid but mostly, it is new worries. the issue of inflation wasn't eve

i find it interesting, lauren, joe concha's point when the media says npr, the "gold star" they saidstraction, but distraction from what? pushing the narrative? >> wanted to get biden into office, he is, why did the story come out 17 months later in disqualify him for potential 2024 run so they can get another democratic person in look at the state of the country? they pose that as open question. >> that is right. >> harris: i have a different question, how thick are the thieves, i remember another media out sxlt throw them in as media outlet and not some outlier of social platform, twitter. they want to put their thumb on the scale about what is factual and what is information and disinformation and what is trending and disqualification, i guess they think they are journalists. let's do the mind experiment for a second and pretend they are journalist. how thick are the thieves of truth? if you even tweeted, retweeted, talked about tweeting, the "new york post" true and real story about hunter biden, his ties with energy, right, oil companies and millions and potentially billions wra

can't even summon the anger anymore to be angry about it but it's very interesting to go back to the npr editor saying we don't cover stories that are false or not real stories. lots of never trump types, jonah goldberg situation, oh u believe the fact that hunter left his laptop in a repair shop? yes, he did, because he's got drug issues. so it's perfectly plausible. and the "new york times" -- i'm sorry, the "new york post" repeated and said what our sourcing at the time was. >> mike: let's play this clip from president-elect biden after the election in december 2020. >> i'm not concerned about any accusations made against him. it's used to get to me. i think it's kind of foul play. >> mike: joe, what do you make of this story now? >> well, this is exhibit a, mike, of journalist -- journalism morphing into activism, right? if you look at this objectively, as a journalist and news organization, here you have the son of a presidential candidate enriching himself through the family through nuance pedaling. how do we know this? the "new york post" which is the oldest daily newspaper in the

nawaz: it's all taking a toll on how americans view the president, according to the latest pbs newshour/npr/mari poll. more than half of americans, 56%, say biden's first year has been a failure. roughly the same grade his predecessor donald trump received after his first year in office. just 39% of americans approve of the job biden is doing, th lowest approval rating of his presidency. >> i think this is both a big challenge and a great opportunity for him. >> nawaz: lee miringoff is the director of the marist college institute for public opinion. >> you've got a lot on the plate if you're joe biden because you've got the internationalnd the domestic and his role as the president and the division of the country, the confluence of factors is just enormous. but isn't that what our politics has been about the last few years every day? it's another borderline or realist crisis. >> nawaz: it's something biden can tackle head on tonight. >> when you're low, there's a good opportunity to go up. and that's really where he has right now. the bounce potential is there for him should he take advanta

it was very interesting again the poll the "newshour" did with npr and marist shows his approval rating47% up from 38% just a couple of weeks ago, so there's something behind that. >> yes, there's something behind thatsh and that is what the american people wanted to hear from the president in addition to shong american leadership against putin and russia. but what they wanted to hear and i think they did hear it, a president who understood that, as well as the economy seems to be doing here in the united states, that they have kitchen table issues that they want the president to address. theyanted to hear that the president understood that inflation was eating away at their paychecks, whether they got wage increases or not. they wanted to hear whether he was going to do something about childcare, healthcare, prescription drugs, all those things, those laundry list issues that the president got knocked for spending time talking about. the american people wanted to know what he was going to do about it. so, from the kitchen table perspective, i think voters heard what they wanted to hear

joining me the host of npr's morning edition, we're so glad to have you back on the show. >> glad to> making a lot of news starting with the irreversible line, the irreversible moves by russia what it would take for the u.s. to lift the sanctions. russia seems to be not interested in that, right? >> russia is not interested and also as a layman have to mean what would that mean in practical terms. russia needs to withdraw, we know that, but what would you trust from russia? would you trust russia to say we'll never do that again? russia gave security guarantees to ukraine in 199 had 4 proved to be worth nothing. you have to ask that question. although there are negotiations going on where we begin to get some idea of what that could plausibly mean. russian and ukrainian negotiators have reportedly been talking about some kind of security guarantee for ukraine if russia were to leave the united states, might again guarantee ukraine's security, the uk and other countries might. that's one plausible form. the main thing i took away from the word irreversible, it's it's going to be hard

joining our conversation now is npr's national security correspondent greg mary. greg, thanks for coming on the show tonight. talks between russia and ukraine resume today, or monday in ukraine. is there any hope for a progress on a cease-fire? >> it really doesn't look promising. they've had two rounds so far. they said there was a cease fire in place. and then a civilians try to move out, the immediately fell apart. i think the best-case scenario is there will be something very temporary that would allow some civilians to get out. but in terms of the broader issue of trying to stop the shooting for an extended period, or resolving this, i just don't see that being in the cards right now. >> let's talk about the possibility of a ban in port oil import. what are you hearing about diplomacy on this, legislation on this front? nancy pelosi has talked about possible legislation in the coming days. >> just in the last hour so, she said that congress will look at legislation that will ban russian energy imports. this would be a really big deal. the u.s. does import som

he is often seen wearing a simple green t-shirt a military garb timothy kristin campbell tells npr this zelenskyy is projecting confidence and competence in a modern way. of course, it takes more than just dressing the part to be a good leader. every day, we see zelenskyy on the ground in ukraine, he meets with his troops, and he publicly grieves with his people. while putin, on the other hand, is known for keeping everyone at a distance, an extreme distance. two very different profiles in leadership. and on that note, i wish you all a good night. from our colleagues at nbc news thanks for staying up late with us. see you at the end of tomorrow.

publications that are read by just more than my parents and best friends and fox news and abc as well as npr, and i'm here today to urge congress to extend daylight savings time to make it all year round. number one the most important reason, permanency daylight savings time, -- we will talk about the crime reduction various representatives have already reference standard daylight savings time by that as much g as 20%. this was the original justification of daylight savings time. it's no longer as strong as it used to be but it does save energy. number four, avoiding switching the clocks as many representatives have eluded to. it messes up circadian rhythm and has all kind of health and economic effects. but it can stop that. and the interest will flourish in the evening sunshine. i will take all of those and turnrn them first. darkness calls, sunshine saves. that's what i would like to say to my students and darkness is twice as deadly in the evening hours as it is in the early morning hours before sunrise for various reasons. there is more people on the road, that is more alcohol. hepeople

finally mister president on the npr. this week members from both parties must work together to take the next steps in holding putin accountable bypassing pnpr legislation. i believe it passed nothing like 24 to 8. both speaker pelosi and mccarthy in support of the legislation. the clearest message we can send vladimir putin is that we are united in passing the npr that will end a heavy blow against putin's economy. the pnpr revocation was approved by the house, supported by the president and would help putin pay a heavy price. time is of the essence to pass it because putin savagely against the ukrainian people grows day by day and because the president is meeting the g7 ministers in europe. monday morning, putin's savagery showed itself once again missiles obliterated a 10 story shopping mall in the center of kyiv leaving an untold numberof people dead and one of the largest attacks on the city to date . in the south presidents of the ones driving port city of mariupol fight on in what has become the most intense urban

so avenues like "the new york times" and cnn and business week and fox news and abc and cbs and npr. and i'm here today to urge congress to permanently extend daylight saving time to make it all year round for five important reasons. number one, the most important reason, permanent daylight saving time would save lives. darkness kills. number two, we're going to talk about the crime reduction that various representatives have already reference. it prevents crime by as much as 20%. number three, we're going to talk about the energy savings created by daylight saving part-timetime. this was the original justification for daylight saving time. number four, we're going to discuss avoiding switching the clocks twice a year as many representatives have alluded to, people don't like changing their clocks twice a year. it's more than just dislike. it messes up rhythms, your sleep cycles, and has all kinds of health and economic effects. but permanent daylight saving time can stop that. and lastly, the fifth reason for going permanent daylight saving time is that business and recreational int

government-funded outlets like npr and pbs, you do not have people sitting in the white house or sitting in congress dictating to them what to cover and how to cover it, and that happens on a daily basis inside russia, and it is very clear that the difference is more stark and that you do not have the u.s. government blocking websites and preventing news organizations from operating which is where we are in modern russia. host: south carolina next talking to matthew. caller: yes. thank you for allowing me to go on c-span. it is my first time, i've been watching it for 15 to 20 years. i called and i wanted to thank you all for letting me speak. my thing is that -- i understand that we need to give them more weapons or whatever. but, at the same time, i hope they have to go out and engineer stuff and make their own tools. that is my comment. and i want to thank you guys. host: let us go to ted in alberta's, pencil -- alberta, pennsylvania. caller: this is for jamie. jamie, i fought in vietnam in 1969 and 1970, who is making the money off of this war? it costs money to do a war. thank you.

listen to this from npr's managing editor at the time.t want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories and that are pure distractions and that is where we ended up, this was politically driven event. taxpayer dollars at work. influence pedalling, in his own words and e-mails, that is absolutely a story. brooke discussed it before, it was russian disinformation and social media shut down individual accounts like kayleigh mcenany, who was press secretary at the time just for sharing the story, this is right out of north korea. what happened to dozens who worked in u.s. intelligence who wrote an open letter before the 2020 investigation saying the hunter biden story was based on misinformation, including former cia director, he signed off on there, are there ark apologies or corrections coming? no shot. >> todd: no, they all got contributor jobs. andrea mitchell insinuating an upside to the war. listen to this. >> you think this is helping the democrats, helping the white house as they head into the midterms? >> this war gives

so grab that reusable npr tote bag to hold those organic lentils and let's get a hold of the public has you will never find a clean bus stop or a light rail station because the homeless have just completely taken over. they set up tents, they smoke fentanyl, they shoot up heroin. sometimes frankly they just pass out. once you actually get on the bus or light rail, you are going to find that the same products exist and it comes with a 500% in plain dell my complaints by bus drivers who say that homeless addicts are openly smoking fentanyl and passing on the bus. a man who believed to be homeless was found dead by a maintenance staff or after the driver had parked at the metro base and ended his shift. so this man wrote a four slumped over dead for some or most of the ride. the homeless are passed on the light rail all the time so it's easy to figure out why passengers didn't say anything if they saw this guy. the whole situation, tucker, has declines in seattle politicians with their enforcement of a list of things actually racist. since that point, the homeless has taken over, the situa

meanwhile, npr, they announced they wouldn't waste their time on the hunter biden report because there wasn't really a story. it was donald trump's sons, it would be a story. one "new york times" article repairing to the report as farcical russian disinformation. "the washington post" also suggested without evidence that it was part of some foreign election disinformation scheme. where is the proof? where is the evidence? none of these outlets never lift a finger or a total verify the laptop until now. and your report in "the washington post" details what we've been telling you now for nearly two years on this program here that is zero experience hunter biden got paid millions of dollars from the chinese nationals in return to next to nothing with no expertise other than a connection to his vice president father at the time. here with more are the senators behind the key report, wisconsin senator ron johnson along with iowa senator chuck grassley. gentlemen, great to see you both. i will start with you, senator johnson, if you could explain what we now know, is there anything in my mon

always find signed these letters by abundant hidin behind their nature titles up around that same time, npraid they weren't going to cover the story of the laptop because the were going to waste time on something that wasn't news. cnn said this is a right-wing media machine at work. they key here is that joe biden wasn't mentioned by by hunter i these e-mails. we ought to know more about tha if the guy as president of the united states. >> great to see you as always tonight. thank you for being with us. seven breaking news about the meeting between china and russi about what is happening in ukraine. greg, what can you tell us. >> that news jurors crossed the line and the last hour or so. the russia ambassador to china meeting with the foreign ministry official. of course, where china falls on this war by russia against ukraine is critical and it's of course comes in advance of the telephone call scheduled for tomorrow between president bide and chinese president xi jinping , so a lot of people watching that. that as this war, as this invasion goes into its fourth week in kyiv, the capital c

doing the music, it's solemn, it's a war time and now it makes us feel like we are a cross between npr and a podcast pickle everybody sitting around, it makes me seem even weirder. is that a word? >> it is. >> thank you. >> you want to talk about broken windows policing for "the new york times" theory that it has to do with social alienation creating crime, what you make of it? >> everything is everybody else's fault. broken windows is effective and i was in new york at the time because what happened is they decided they were going to get the turnstile jumpers, the guys who were paying, jumping over the turnstiles and running away and escaping through the sub subways. they found them and charge them and it turned out they were all -- had long criminal rap sheets. suddenly got arrested and i got put on probation. >> greg: that must suck when you go to prison and your bunkmate is a gang member or killer -- what did you do? i jumped a turnstile. you not having lunch that day or the rest of the time you're there because they're going to take your lunch break out and i know because i did ti

thank you so much, eleanor beardsley of npr. it's time now for business.ave been discussing, emmanuel macron unveiled his program today with a lot of focus on the economy. not just the war. >> he vowed to reshape the french economy by further cutting taxes, reforming the labor market and making nato public. he said pro-business reforms carried out despite protests have worked to bring unemployment down to a 15 year low 50 billion euros per year and to pay for it, he said, the french people would have to work more. plans include raising the retirement age to 65 and making it harder for the jobless to receive unemployment benefits, meanwhile promising more subsidies for single mothers and encourages tax breaks for some. also making france more independent in terms of energy, food, and industry as the war in ukraine has shown the european vulnerability when it comes to oil and gas. he says the state should increase its stake in the utility giant edf, including nationalizing the nuclear unit. >> global oil futures surged again this thursday. brent crude and wt

none of them has left the tiny world of npr listeners who run this country.s been a struggle for both of them. but they made it. they'll be sick and tired, sick and tired. watch. >> again, i'm in my joy. i can't help it. the president is to who we nominate. we've had glances which we've known for years at times. i try to get up to the president what it means, what it means... and i want to tell you that when i look at you, that's when i get emotional. it's hard not to look at you and not see my mom, not to see my cousins. one of them who had to come here and sit behind you. she had to have your back. i see my ancestors in yours. nobody is going to steal of that joy of the woman in the street or the calls i'm getting or the texts. nobody is going to steal that joy. you have earned this spot. you are worthy. today, you are my star. you are my harbinger of hope. >> tucker: that's not jussie smollett? did you see the footage from the sentencing? it's exactly jussie smollett. you can also acknowledge that it is art. the best part, cory booker and kamala harris sha

chicago sun times not for profit venture to deliver newspaper journalism and radio journalism through npr. i wish them well. we need people asking tough questions of politicians like myself. it's not the case. if nothing's changed. it's all going to go away and just going to disappear. >> that's my big concern, without something like the jcp a. we're not going to be able to cover council meetings or press conferences not going to cover local weather emergencies or traffic for all of these things are going to go away. what are you going to rely on then, your local list serve? the way it's been set up over the years to make it a-- go at it as a digital business i know that jennifer to go into it. the profits aren't there and lucky if you break even. something has to change if we want local journalism to survive and jcpa could let us have a seat at the table so we could at least even the playing field. >> if we don't do something the cow birds won't have any nests to raid. >> they will not. >> thank you very much. >> mr. francis, first, i'd like to let you respond to point mr. singer made a

with us tonight to discuss, david a business correspondent for npr.nd oleg, an economic adviser to president zelenskyy, thank you for being with us tonight. i know you called on western nations to stop importing russian oil and gas. you called it blood money. let's say that happens, then what? at this point nearly 100% of russian forces that were on the border are already inside ukraine. is it past the point where you can make a difference for economic sanctions on ukraine? >> absolutely. we are fighting against russian troops here on the ground in ukraine. under the same time we have to -- we are in a new reality. and based on this reality, the whole world, particularly the united states have to impose economic sanctions. everything that has been done so far are very effective. all these sanctions which were implemented by the united states, such as sanctions on the russians and sanctions on -- we're doing okay. but what we really need now, we need to an embargo on russian oil and gas. but you are absolutely right, if the sanctions are introduced in

to talk more about the miscounts and what they mean, i'm joined by npr national correspondent, hansio wang. let's start with the over coutts and under counts. how large were they? >> we are talking about under counts for latinos, more than three times the net undercount rate compared to 2010. that is a dramatic increase. for black people and for native americans living on reservations , they are numerically higher net undercount rates, but the census bureau says they are not statistically any different. but the bottom line is that there is this racial gap between people of color, generally speaking, and people who identify as white and not hispanic. what is also interesting is that you do see an over counting of asian american, which was not seen in 2010. to be clear, it is not clear exactly how well they did in counting pacific islanders. lisa: if we had to sound some of the concerns we heard from these groups today, listen to some of this. >> some 4 million plus, may is 5 million blackeople have been missed. perhaps an equal number of people of hispanic and latino dissent have been

if so's npr poll saying americans support limited intervention in ukraine to prevent escalation with denver, colorado, democrat line, keith, how are you doing? caller: good morning. i am doing really good. i would like to shift the question from biden to the u.s. he represents the u.s. in nato. -- i have never seen, 62 years old, i have never seen this degree of unity in the west. never ever under any u.s. president. not the first gulf war, not in any american -- [indiscernible] -- this is statesmanship. this is solidarity. it is happening under the watch of joe biden. i don't love any president. i am smart enough not to fall into any kind of cult of personality, smart enough to think any individual can save us. really quick experiment. i watched on three networks, biden's arrival at the palace in warsaw. i was very proud of our media, with one exception, of fox. they talked about how awful and embarrassing biden is all through that segment. no other network did that. it is coming from in the house, the divisiveness. it is coming from us, from a singular media outlet. those of you ge

ukrainians displaced by russia's invasion have sought refuge in neighboring poland for the time being and as nprnted out, the number of ukrainians who fled to poland have reached the same population as warsaw itself, and we can only expect that number of refugees to grow, to keep rising. joining me now from warsaw is nbc's claudio lavanga. as you mentioned in the last hour, if you plan on staying, you must essentially get a social security number. i know that you went to social security registration in warsaw today. what is this process look like, especially for those ukrainians wanting to stay? >> reporter: that's right, yasmin. well, the government in poland is granting permission to all ukrainians fleeing the who arrive here. the possibility to stay here, the rights to stay here in poland for at least 18 months without having to ask for an asylum or permission, which would have been the case, of course, because ukraine is outside of the european union. but if they want to do anything here like working or accessing healthcare or send their kids to school, they need to apply for a social securi

. >> okay, got at npr. >> thanks and i apologize if this covers the same that you cap talked about, i think i missed your answer there but i have a follow-up question on the labor force, i wonder what you anticipate when it comeshe to older workers as the house outlook change, are we going to see more retirees, with tom brady in the workforce and what would it mean for wages and inflation? >> it's hard to say, what we saw in the last cycle was over the course of a long steady expansion, labor forcepa participation outperformed expectations and it was a tight labor market nowhere near as tight as this labor market but tight labor market so people state longer, it wasn't so much people coming back in the labor force after retirement, that's not something that happens in the aggregate very much so that's what was happening. more labor force participation is tremendously welcome and of w course policy does not in any way preclude thought, it's a situation where wages that moved up at the highest rate in a very long time and people are able to quit their jobs and move to better paying jobs

we now incidentally have a new experiment announced this week where wbez, the npr station in chicago is joining up with the chicago sun times in a not for profit venture to deliver regular newspaper journalism radio journalism through npr. i wish them well. we need some competition. we need some people that are asking tough questions of politicians like myself. and it's just not the case. and if nothing is changed it's all goinghe to go away. and just going to disappear. >> and that is my big concern is that without something like the jcpail to help out these journalists we're not going tow bes able to comp council meetings, not able to cover press conferences, not able to cover local weather emergencies ors traffic. or, you know, all the things just are goingak away. what are you going to rely on then?ig your local list serve? and the way it's set up over the years is that to make if a go at it from thee digital business a i know jennifer could go into great detail about it's very difficult. the profits aren't there. you're lucky if you break even. so something has to change in we w
