Ainsley totally destroyed. They lost their child. Lawrence the point they made you read the stories all the time but you never know until it hits you. And i think theres a lot of families in the texas area, oklahoma area that are feeling praying for you guys today. Ainsley absolutely. The fear they felt. They lost everything and they said thats their retirement. Steve janice told us another week of Severe Weather throughout the socalled Tornado Alley all the way from down south to up north. Stay tuned for details. Ainsley Vice PresidentKamala Harris will kick off her Economic Opportunity tour today in atlanta. As new polls show the economy is a top issue for voters in the upcoming election. Steve Jacqui Heinrich at her post on the north lawn of the white house with the latest on that. Hey, jacqui. Jacqui good morning to you guys. Vice president Kamala Harris is launching tour Big Focus Is Galvanizing black voters, especially black men where recent polls have showed biden sliding. A new cnn poll shows 92 of voters believe that the economy is extremely or very important in their vote. And a recent Wall Street Journal poll showed more black men plan to support trump than biden in seven critical swing states. So drawing back some of that support is going to weigh heavily on the election in places like georgia, where biden won in 2020 by only 12,000 votes. Harris heads to atlanta today where the city is receiving 158 million Downtown Revitalization investment to increase access to jobs, housing, education and healthcare. She says, quote our economic approach has delivered great progress and we will continue to invest in you, your family, and your future. All this comes after former President Trump met with his former rival ron desantis, Florida Governor in miami this weekend. Desantis has previously denied any interest in the v. P. Slot and the media reportedly focused on his plan to help trump fund raise. A cnn poll yesterday showed Trump Holding advantage in a headtohead matchup with biden. When you add third party candidates, that advantage grows to 9 points. So obviously a concern for team biden. There was a recent effort over the weekend or excuse me there was an effort ows ka Karine Jeanpierre press secretary. This something that the white house vehemently denies. We will see if karine has anything to say about that reported. And also about harass launching this new economic Tour Briefing at 1 30. Lawrence i find it interesting they are starting economic tour in atlanta. Thats also the place they got rid of the allstar game because of jim crow 2. 0 and all those businesses lost that Economic Opportunity. I wonder a lot of the residents were upset about that. Can we expect some sort of apology to the people of atlanta as they kick off this economic tour . Brian okay. Try to be diplomatic. [laughter] jacqui broadly speaking, i havent seen anyone from this Administration Issue apologies very often on anything. You know,. Steve ever. Jacqui their plans are pretty wellthoughtout and they stick to them even when they dont often work. So, i doubt it on that front but, you know, we will see. We can ask. Brian jacqui, did it catch you totally by surprise this coup attempt detail. Job she was going to get and how to exit and the critiques they had on her seemed pretty much consists critiques about her. Doesnt understand the policy. Glued to the binder has to Read Everything verbatim it. Seems like there is a lot of substance to it. Did it catch you by surprise . Well, it caught me by surprise the timing of this report. Because, the whole emilys list offer was several months ago. That was reported at the time. So i dont know what sort of made this come out now. Broadly speaking, you know, karine has her wheelhouse in certain areas. Just like we see john kirby always talking about anything with national security, foreign policy, you know, former pentagon spokesman. They sort of divide that job in that area. And when karine has to, you know, talk about the things that judicial usually john kirby talks about its not as strong as when she talks about things in her wheelhouse political messaging, for instance. The timing of the report was a little bit surprising because we knew about the emilys list offer back in, i think, disease you were up on the dais because you are part of the association and one of the officers. Im sure there was some smalltalk about that. It actually at that event i was there a white house official, a very high ranking person told me that the story was absolutely true. They would like her to step aside she just wont governmental thats interesting. You see the on the record Vehement Denials in that New York Post report and then also echoed when we asked about it at fox news behind the scenes people speak more candidly i cant speak to it. I was on an island away from everyone else. The only person i talked to last night was doug emhoff he was a pleasure to speak to. We had a meal together up on the stage watching the dinner and i think it was a success. So a lot of jokes. The president , you know he pulled off some funny lines the bike one was a good one. Ainsley saw you on tv. I watched it in my cozy home and saw your son a lot too. They were zooming in on peter a lot. You said she was glued to her notebook. Im thinking when you were a waiter you would have nightmares if you didnt serve something you were supposed to or in our Job Nightmares you are on in 5, 4, 3, 2. You have nightmares goes to the podium and does not have her binder. Opens it up and all blank pages. What what that story said was she relies heavily on the biden and doesnt do the work like jen psaki would study for hours and hours. Report does say kjp does study there is just dynamic people in the Communications Wing at the highest levels and advisers would like to see somebody else at the podium. Ainsley it has to be a hard job. Lawrence a hard job that she wanted and she is an experienced campaigner. It doesnt look like she is can do the job as press secretary. The thing that has hurt her the most is when you have admirable kirby he is not just doing national security. He is talking about a vast array of issues. When he goes out there and kills iter single time. Also in that report previously it said that there was tension between her and kirby because he goes to the Press Conferences but she wants to decide what reporters she can call on. She gets to pick them. Ainsley talking about going to atlanta and talk about the economy. Trying to get on that message they know this is the number one issue. When you look at the cnn poll do you approve or disapprove of the way joe biden is handling the economy. Only 34 approve. 66 disapprove. You said that was the number one issue for a lot of voters. Brian that was before Kamala Harris gets to speak on it. Im sure its going to reverse before she gives the speech and tells everyone how much money they have than what they actually have. Inflation no big deal and transitory. Different message. Last time the president spoke about bidenomics. There were people protesting his speech on bidenomics outside. They have to find a way to say look, we are happy with the numbers. But we understand you dont feel that Wait A Minute and then start customizing their message. They cant keep on telling people that their life is better than they think it is. Maybe if the white house is lucky. The people protesting for gaza will drown out the people protesting bidenomics. Brian maybe. Steve just because you put on a speech, you know, the economy tour, that doesnt mean the message is actually about the economy. Because as we have been talking about for months, a lot of the numbers are good for the administration but it just doesnt feel like it. Thats one of the reasons why young people are abandoning joe biden because they are out and trying to make money. At the same time, the inflation is chewing away at all the stuff they are trying to get. Lawrence look at what they are doing right now. This is called the Economic Opportunity tour. When you got the former president had Opportunity Zones. They are trying to hijack a message. Part of Opportunity Zones was lower taxes, deregulation, investment into poorer areas and they say they are going to do it in the next devil rays. They havent done it yet. I just dont understand how you hijack a message when you havent done anything to push the narrative forward. And as i asked jacqui in the interview. You are starting with atlanta. You killed the businesses in atlanta. Jim crow 2. 0. Steve also, remember, it was this congress that passed the inflation reduction act, which didnt actually reduce inflation. But thats what they called it because that was the message. Inflation was about 9 . Lets call something something that it really isnt. Nobody bought it. Brian brag about the expiring tax reform that President Trump put in that had the economy growing. And everybody. You know who had the smallest decrease in taxes . The top five 10 . The rest, mostly middle class felt those tax reductions. Now President Biden is i cant wait for 2025 when they expire. Nobody is happy about that. Ainsley well, cnn, we talked about these polls at the beginning of our show if you are just waking up. These are pretty astonishing. Donald trump hed according to cnn biden and trump he is up by 6 points. If its a 5way match, trump, biden, kennedy, wes and sian trump is ahead by 9 points. Thats significant. Steve remember, going into where we are right now, months ago, you know, you would do look at all the polls and they would be are you happy with the top two choices and so many people said no. Thats one of the reasons why r. F. K. Is actually surging. But, you know what, he was actually out and about yesterday. Here in new york state. And he explained what is going on with the polls and who is taking essentially shots at joe biden. Watch this. So then why am i behind . The reason im behind in the voting polls, the conventional voting polls is, because so Many Americans are voting out of fear. I have yet to talk to anybody outside of my family who says were voting for President Biden because he is energetic and because. [laughter] hes got a cognitive capacity to outsmarted everybody in the world. And hes going to give us a new vision for america. They never say that. Brian now r. F. K. Is getting it from both sides his poll looks like he helps trump significantly gives him 6 points. Last weeks poll, two weeks polls show him giving joe biden the advantage. President trump lit him up over the last few days and also he commented to, did President Trump on william barr saying hey, im going to vote for trump over biden he lit up former Attorney General who i think is the mvpss of the former administration. You know what at least i will stop calling you lays. I will get rid of one derogatory term. Ainsley why do you think is he going up in the polls . Steve r. F. K. . Ainsley no donald trump. Because we are watching him in the courtroom. Take down a flag and put up Palestinian Flag on campus . Lawrence strictly the economy. Of course we covered the border and all these other stories. Brian the border. Lawrence what impacts them on daytoday basis when they go to the grocery store. When they go to the gas pump. You got people im speaking to in diners independents used to be democrats saying hey i know i dont like the mean tweets. I wish the former president would adjust himself there price of eggs, the price of bacon through the roof and ultimately gets passed onto the people who were sitting there i think the border is huge. Everyone i talk. To say thanks to drone shots and great reporting, you see the flooding come across. Nobody is addressing it period. We are just running out the clock until there is a new election. Ainsley when you have a house and three kids at home and we have all been there in our homes growing up. And you dont have enough money to pay for everything. And the garage breaks. Or you get in a car accident and you need a new car. Thats called stress. Brian knowing that the money is going toil legal aliens to live luxurious life in hotel where they sit in stairwells and have drugfueled alcoholdominated fights while tossing out most of the free food we gave them while using our free the debit cards that we give them. Instead of refillable. Lawrence shutting down schools in chicago. Taking Senior Housing away from the elderly in harlem. These are traditional democrat voters that have been on our program, that are madder than hell. Lets see what they do in the next election, though. Steve everybody pays the same prices. Its the great equalizer. Brian great opportunity to toss to ainsley. Ainsley thank you going to that camera. Thank you, chris. Thank you brian. U. S. Central command taking down five Unmanned Aerial Vehicles over the red sea yesterday. Centcom saying it was determined the uavs presented an imminent threat to u. S. Coalition and merchant vessels in that region. These actions are taken to protect freedom of navigation and make International Waters safer and more secure for u. S. Coalition and merchant vessels. We have a lot of vessels in that area. Brian whose were they . Ainsley i think they were ours . Brian were they the houthi . Ainsley im not sure. We will have to find outer more information. This story is just breaking. So he would are just finding out about it. Los angeles mayor karen bass says her family is recovering from the very disturbing breakin at her house last week.
