Picks up steam for white house president ial race. The biden team focusing on Money Matters and the politics of another possible government shutdown. Whitehouse correspondent peter doocy joins us from the north lawn with the latest. Peter even though gas prices are high and inflation is high they are not as high as they have been in the last couple years. Officials here think that means they deserve a second term. Building the economy from the bottom up, middle out. That he was the president s plan. Officials running bidenharris 2024 think a big Selling Point is the economy. Dropping this new ad. They said millions would lose their jobs. And the economy would collapse. But this president refused to let that happen. Instead e got to work. Work will stop September 30th if the government shuts down. White house spokesman writes in the memo now House Republicans have a stark choice to make. Will they honor their word, meet their responsibility to avoid a shutdown and act on life and death priorities Like Fighting the Fentanyl Crisis . Theres no reason theres no reason for congress to shut down the government. Absolutely none. Peter republicans say a Shutdown Threat is leverage. Were going to try to avoid a shutdown but unfortunately at the end of the day the only power that congress has to hold these agencies accountable to do their jobs is the power of the purse. White house officials cant do anything about President Bidens age. And now famed pollster nate silver writes if the expert class doesnt understand that bidens age is both a real concern for voters and a valid concern, they had better be prepared for getting a second trump turn instead. This election is probably going to be close and trump might be only one. Biden has a mcconnell moment away from winning. Its not just age. Several biden promises remain unfulfilled, including one to visit the site of a toxic train derailment. The president said over the weekend he hasnt had the occasion to go to east palestine. I just havent been able to break. The derailment was on february 3rd. President biden has not had a break since february 3rd . The president will go to east palestine. He promised that he would. And he will. Peter i also had a chance to ask today why it is that officials here think that two thirds of democrats are telling the Wall Street Journal in a new poll they think President Biden is too old for a second term. The Press Secretary cited his wisdom and that he has signed historic legislation. So they are talking about his age, even though there is nothing they can do to reverse it, bret. Bret on the break question, obviously he has had a ton of vacation in between then and now. Peter he was just in lake tahoe. So they are saying that he is going to go but what the president said is that he has not had a chance to break. We know, in fact, when he was in lake tahoe like two weeks ago, he extended his break. He was going to come back on a thursday. He came back on a saturday. So, we can check the tape. Bret there you go. Peter doocy live on the north lawn. Peter, thank you. As senators meet for the First Time Since july, there are growing concerns about the health of two key members. Both Minority Leader Mitch Mcconnell and veteran california democrat Dianne Feinstein have had ongoing medical issues. Chad pergram has the latest from capitol hill. Good evening, chad. Bret, good evening. Senate Minority Leader Mitch Mcconnell was mum about his Health Problems during his return to the capitol. He only alluded to freezing up a few days ago. Now, one particular moment of my time back home has received its fair share of attention in the press over the past week. But i assure you august was a busy and productive month for me and my staff back in the commonwealth. While mcconnell did not shed light on his health, the main congressional doctor did. Attending physician Brian Monahan would not say what caused mcconnell to freeze. But monahan ruled out a stroke or parkinsons disease. Monahans letter was the most information we have received about mcconnells health. When the capitol physician comes out and puts himself on the record like this, i find that reassuring. Its not likely, very unlikely that he would fabricate anything. He has his medical ethics to be dealing with here. Mcconnell did not answer two questions i posed to him in the hall, one, we update the public on his health and, two, does he know whats afflicting him. Senator minority whip dick durbin says is he going through recovery from a concussion and that can take a toll. I told him i couldnt wait to see him back and i couldnt wait to disagree with him and im sure we will have that in the fear future. Why he did not discuss his health did he talk about a government shutdown. Need to address our nations most pressing needs with timely appropriations and we need to keep the lights on from october 1st.
