. >> martha: so i want to ask you about your leadership at the rsc. we spoke about this before. you have gotten a lot of push-back about the way you handled things from folks inside your party and people that run some of the gop packs that also support these candidates. marc thiessen was just here. he basically said that the rsc ran out of its $180 million in august because you spent too much money at the front half in the very beginning of this and ran out of money. then the slc, one of the largest organizations that is part of mitch mcconnell's venue ended up having to spend $240 million and save people in states that they felt they shouldn't have to spend money in. what is your response to that? >> first off, the d.c. crowd wants to give people credit or pen blame. it's the candidates that win the races. here's what we did. we did the opposite of what they did in georgia two years ago. in georgia, they didn't define warnock early. i took over after we lost the senate back in 2021. i said we're going to invest and define our opponents early. guess what? we're in the hunt -- it

and, of course, the leadership of the rsc is still trying.e medicines are temporarily unavailable to us, of course, doctors are looking for analogues. uh , even in my own department, when we had a shortage, for example, omeprazole, which we will add to patients, we replaced it with an analogue, and this analogues. uh, as far as i know, but of moldovan origin somewhere ukrainian or belarusian. there are lists of russian goods prohibited for transportation through the territory of moldova, for example, and agricultural fertilizers are the situation here. we faced such a problem that in uh, 2021 2022 we worked without fertilizers in mind, the current situation and the pricing policy and the ban and logistics that it currently exists uh, purchasing fertilizers from european companies. yes, we are, of course, uh, increasing our cost price. and what is noteworthy is that the bans on the import of russian goods, including food products, are unofficial, that is, trucks are simply not allowed into moldovan territory. and there is no other way to get i

well, rsc's a small makeup of the whole conference. why would kevin ever commit to something like that? kevin's not going to commit to the hfc because he's also got republican governance group, he's got the problem solvers, he's got main street, he's got the republican -- >> what do you want from him? what do you as the republican governance conference, what do you want from him? >> good governance. that's what we were elected for. we didn't come here to make a point. we came here to make a difference. we were duly elected by the people in our communities to go back there and fix the problems that exist. they're sick of the dysfunction that has continued on time and time again each year we've been -- this will now be my sixth term coming back. of not getting things done. we have to go back and fix the problems that are directly affecting the american people on a daily basis. >> so speaking of that, i'm glad you raised it because i can actually fill up the screen with the investigations that members of your party have announced. and i t

media benefits in either the commitment to america, the thing that came out a couple weeks ago, or the rsc proposed budget. that was senator scott's thing. it's total disinformation. the fact the president is spreading disinformation based on a fabricated screen shot, folks should know in the sort of dirty tricks that happen in political seasons, there was a fabricated screen shot that purported to show one of these proposals cutting back on social security and saying if you have an ira or disabled veteran you shouldn't get benefit. fabricated, made up. the president is spreading disinformation. it's amazing they were going to have a misinformation board, this white house, when they are spreading disinformation. >> sandra: and we sent our brain room out this morning to find anything anywhere that any gop member might have said that even hinted at the possibility of that, and turned up nothing. jackie, some say it's a distraction effort on the part of democrats who look at inflation that in large part voters see caused by big government spending, and the lack of anything to actually bring p

a pension, ira from collecting social security benefits in either the commitment to america or the rsc'sd budget senator scott's budget. they say it is disinformation floated out there. don't believe it and now the president is using the disinformation on the campaign trail to suggest that republicans are going to tear up social security. it is really extraordinary what is happening here. >> harris: house minority leader kevin mccarthy was on and, you know, what he said was it's more democrat lies. when you break it down and actually source where this information is coming from, voters can easily look at that as a dirty campaign trick. they don't like that sort of thing. >> that's right. it was a dirty trick. somebody did it. i'm sure somebody in the democratic party. what's worse somebody should be telling the president, mr. president, this is disinformation, it is not real. it was photo shopped. they're painting a whole picture here suggesting republicans want to rip up social security and attached to that is this expansion of medicaid thank you talked about to include things that are

this postmortem, what went wrong, two senators, blackburn and telus supporting an audit of the and rsc. how did you spend the money, why did you make the decisions you made, was it worth it? does it get paid? a little bit because senator scott says my predecessor messed up, he doled out too many bonuses after the last election so i was in a mess to begin with. that is what some republicans are doing. stuart: let's get more on trump and his standing, what does bill bennett who has been on the show frequently think of trump's 2,020 one ounce and? lauren: he says trump should step aside, the country was in a great place when the former president was president but there are too many people who will not vote for donald trump and he continues, i don't want to see trump running be defeated which i think would happen. he ran a great country, he's got a great legacy in that, embrace that, step aside. he is joining the chorus saying trump cost republicans, georgia last year, bill bennett was talking about that, the runoff is in december. stuart: split decision on donald trump. back to the market

. >> but white house officials are not giving aim to pressure from medical groups, worried about rscnd the flu to declare a public health emergency. >> that declaration that comes from hhs, so the hhs secretary will determine the public health emergency. >> that could happen soon. but this week president biden is hoping to celebrate thanksgiving and a better-than-expected midterm election. >> the only red wave this season is a german shepherd commander that knocks over the cranberry sauce on our table. >> and white house officials are telling us this evening the president may not get involved again in these negotiations to avert a potential rail strike. he's only going to have about a week or so to do that, if he wants to jump back in, when he and the first family return from thanksgiving in nantucket. this is a major test of his promise to be the most pro-union, pro-labor president in history, because union and labor are only half of this equation. bret? >> we'll be watching that closely. peter ducey, live from the north lawn. peter, thanks. there's no focus tonight on the victims o

that is what can happen with rsc that inflammation and that's why we'll see those kids really strugglingarents see that if you're parental instinct says, oh my gosh, this looks like a problem go to emergency care asap, but aside from that call your outpatient provider that might be better for you. okay talk a little bit about the flu oh cases on the rise rates are higher than usual for this time of year. what's happening? what's happening is a lot of unknowns right now dan, but you're absolutely right. we are seeing a earlier and faster influenza spike. we are on par to be as bad as we were over a decade ago during the h1n and one pandemic in 2009 now influenza a seems to be the dominant string which is usually associated with a worse flu season that you take that that randomness of this flu strain into account with the fact that we are kind of lifting all preventative measures and we have a setup for a lot of flu cases which are starting to rise, especially in the eastern part of the country and potentially could move could move throughout the country as we get to colder months. so anyo

yes they are particularly because the rsc population which is most pronounced, causing serious disease and those under two years old. that's the group that can't wear any masks. so i think like i've heard of parents who are just differing the trip across the country for the time being, but again, you know where all crossing our fingers and hoping for the best people go down to southern california to visit family around thanksgiving, which is coming up very soon here. would you advise against such a trip? no, i think you can still go if you take your precautions as much as possible. but it all depends on who you're traveling with again like we mentioned if it's under two years old, particularly under six months old. you might just want to take it a little bit easy, but for everybody else . you get your booster right thursday, two weeks before thanksgiving. you know, i think you should be all set. okay. what are you most concerned about right now, as we head into the week to come um, i'm concerned about continuing increase in cases in rsv. i'm concerned about flu starting to emerge again
