if there is anyone that could balance all of the tough and competing issues in a high stakes meeting in a region, it is president joe biden. and with that question and about that balance, especially given the murder of khashoggi and president biden has said i made it clear how i feel about that. but yet this visit is validating that there is a balance between strategic economic realities and moral issues. and at same time, it comes back to our dependence on foreign oil, does it not. there are other ways that we should be solving this problem, would you not agree? mika, i want to see us make a transition to a lower carbon cleaner economy to breaking our dependence on fossil energy more than anybody i know. as much as many of my colleagues in my caucus in the senate. and to your point, this highlights that right now at a time when prices at the pump are high for the american people, they ve come down. here in delaware 50 cents over the last month. but they are still too hig
but when you talk to voters here in the state of wisconsin, the conversation sound very similar to what we heard in 2020. where democratic voters say the priority is beating the republican incouple bept and then it was president trump and now it is ron johnson. listen to what folks have told me. it is crucial and really ron johnson is a horrible senator. and you would think anybody could beat him. but that is not the way the environment is today. we don t expect we re going to win every kupts in rural wisconsin. but if we could shave a couple percentages off, we could help tony to win and whoever is going to run against ron. i think that is my top issue, getting him out. he s caused so much damage and i find him so embarrassing as a soern. the issues are important too, don t get me wrong. but i just think that we don t have a strong candidate and he stays in what does it matter what the issues are. polls show that this race is very volatile.
in shirtan is had this question and said it is, at that time, permissible to consider an immigrant unlawfully in the kupts as an employee under the labor relations act. in part 2b of the opinion, you have to read part 2b of the opinion of the supreme court s opinion. if you read part 2b, the court then goes on to say, and because the immigration laws do not prohibit employment of people unlawfully in the country. it makes clear, the supreme court makes clear this is when it s being considered in congress in 84. the court makes clear as i read part 2b, and i think i m correct on this, that if the immigration laws did prohibit employment of someone here unlawfully in the country, then that would also mean that they can t vote in the union election. so what i was doing there, senator, all about precedent. i read that and my opinion, if you look at the dissenting opinion. i really parsed this carefully
calling for extreme vetting of immigrants from several muslim majority nations will do little to keep this army of lone wolves from our shores. that s according to an article in commentary by max boot, a noted foreign policy expert. his team calculated that since 9/11 more than half of all attempted or actual terror attacks committed in the u.s. were committed by american citizens. and this means as it more ofs into a virtual caliphate it becomes less of a military challenge and more of a law enforcement problem. as we ve seen often these lone wolf terrorists have no criminal records prior to the terrorist attack. one of the most effective ways for law enforcement to find them is by tracking conversations on line, but it s by no means full proof. the real challenge will be for governments to coordinate counterterrorism attacks with each other. mr. planned in other kupts, some involve government connections. getting others to trust one another with sensitive law
craft bobbing in the water there. not going anywhere today. most of the entire central and north part of the state is right now under a tornado watch, not a warning but a watch. a good indication of just the breadth of this storm, tropical storm debby and how far its reach. from tornadoes to water spouts to flooding in the tampa area, to the one death in venus, florida, reported so far. heavy rainfall. maybe up to 20 or 25 inches before all is said and done. we re going to continue to get pounded for at least the next couple of days. soledad? you ll be in the middle of it. john, thanks for the update. we ll keep checking in. tornado and flood warnings are still in effect today. let s get right to meteorologist alexandra steele, in for rob this morning. he made really great points, john, did, because what we re looking at is this is the tropical storm and it is stationary. that s been the biggest problem with this thing. there s no momentum. there s no movement because t
