They fail to stand up or condemn the threats to democracy. That was part of President Bidens speech yesterday in arizona focused on the threats to our democracy, the former president and the Maga Movement. Well have much more on his remarks including his most forceful and direct criticisms yet of donald trump. Speaking of the former president , his defense team made a Surprise Move in the Georgia Election interference case. Well explain that, and well have the latest from capitol hill on any last ditch efforts to prevent a Government Shutdown before sundays deadline. Good morning and welcome to way too early on this friday, september 29th. Im jonathan lemire. Thanks for starting your day with us.

Gop leaders Going Forward with another House Spending Vote that is probably going nowhere. Lawmakers scrambling with the government hurdling toward a shutdown this weekend. Good day to our viers here in the United States and a around the world. Im kasie hunt. It is friday, september 29, thank you for getting an early start with us. 5 00 a. M. Here in washington where the weeks ticked down to days and now hours. There are 43 of them left before the u. S. Government shuts down.

Now House Republicans are trying to distract by their own infighting by making it a battle over Border Security provisions that are nonstarters it seems in the senate.

Whats more, none of the witnesses testified today of direct knowledge of what republicans have been claiming about joe biden. Whether its smoke today, we got more smoke.
