think about that? >> well, i think it's extraordinarily shortsighted. and the degree of ignorance, i don't mean that in a per g goreative sense. and the united states has faced the decisions before and done the right thing, the leaders of past eras stood on the side of right and today's leaders need to do the same thing. neil: but they're not. not all of them, but the protests popping up across the country at some of our elite institution, they call into question if israel is worth that sacrifice, that cost, that it comes at a tremendous sacrifice financially and morally, they say, to us. some are even waving pro-hamas signs as they walk in the
well, you see some of the green colors, two to three inches, those yellow colors, three to five, or excuse me, the orange colors more like three to five inches. quite a bit of rain and the only thing is, largely in some portions of texas. they need it. as you get further off to the east here, neil, everything in the turquoise color, that's wet ground. all of this rain has nowhere to go. we'll certainly see flooding from today and into tomorrow. neil: adam. thank you. adam klotz following the nation's weather. weather had nothing to do with the near miss at reagan international airport the other day. maybe more to do with tired air traffic controllers. we don't know. this much we do, it was a close call. ate. because you... you are not doing this. save with drivewise and get a rate based on you. you're in good hands with allstate.
neil: general deptula, thank you very much and for your service to this country. thank you. >> have a great day. neil: general deptula on that. of course, you know the hush money trial for one donald j. trump on monday. he's politicking and precious little time to do so. karl rove on that weighing in. and i'm gonna' cashback on a few other things too! starting with the sound system... that's caaaaaaaaash. cashback like a pro with chase freedom unlimited. how do you cashback? hi, i'm david, and i lost 92 pounds on golo. i noticed within a week that the release supplement really knocked out my sugar cravings. i didn't feel the need to go to the store for candy, or go through the drive-thru after work. i feel so much better these days, and i have golo to thank for that.
that can prevent what happened last fall without a speaker. he can acknowledge he's a lame duck, doing things we don't want and acknowledging he's not the man for the job and announcing his resignation and give us notice so we can replace him in conference. neil: let me come back, it comes back to the aid package that's cobbled together i'm not on the rules committee and i don't understand the process fully. i want to ask you about aid outright. to israel it seems like you're for it, ukraine, you're not, right? >> yeah, and a lot of conservatives are struggling with that aid to israel and the overall package because in order to get this bill to the floor, mike johnson had to agree to put $9 billion for gaza and some conservatives here are afraid that some of that will make its way to hamas and you know, that's the nature of this aid. that's a big problem. and when it gets to the senate, the way they've structured the rules for this, they're not going to be able to separate
next year. what does it mean for you. >> rates could go higher. if you're a first time home buyer waiting to pounce you could be waiting longer. and inflation, it's not just a problem when it comes to rates. it calls into question whether we have a handle on the economy. i think a perfect indication is what's happening in the bond market. in times of uncertainty people buy bonds because a government-backed treasury means safety. invests don't think so anymore, they're not buying. neil: another troublesome sign there. kelly o'grady. i want to go to aaron gibbs, and kathy, the capital markets genius. if you don't mind i'd like you to sort of react to something that neel kashkari told me. he kind of echoed what both of you had been warning about, the back drop for interest rates not getting cut anytime soon. this is from neel kashkari. >> we just need to sit here and be patient until we see the data and hopefully get
lives as they normally would. neil. neil: jeff paul, thank you for that, be safe. let's bring in chad pergum and how is that going? >> they're on the ukraine bill and the house is debating bills for israel, ukraine and taiwan, but it took the democrats to put it on the floor. the republicans stumbled despite being in the majority so democrats bailed them out. >> generally in this body it takes the majority party to pass its rule and the minority party never votes for it, but this moment is no big that house democrats said, we're not playing politics with this. >> democrats helped the g.o.p. put the foreign aid plan on the floor yesterday, but some on the left opposed the plan for
atlanta, well, that was on his way to a fundraiser and again, that's what's going to be sort of crimped his ability to do a lot of fundraisers, he can't do them five times a week, at best a couple of days a week. neil: i had a chance to catch up with bill barr, the former attorney general who was no fan of the president, the former president, the way that he led, but he just compared to joe biden he's an easy pick, he would choose him over joe biden. he explained to me exactly why. from bill barr, a few minutes ago. >> i'm not happy with the choice. i think this is a terrible choice for the country, but it is a choice. at the end of the day, we have to select between two different individuals and i've said all along that i think it's my duty to pick the person i think will do the least harm to the country and i think that to me, that's clearly trump and republican administration. neil: of course, we know all the things he's said about donald trump, that he isn't fit
at the radar scope or out the window. neil: and i know they're rare instances. and this one was caught and maybe the pilots involved at that level they see each other and obviously stopped, but remember what happened in the 70's, canary islands two points collided and the weather back drop and we've since corrected for that, or have we? >> fortunate enough here, the jetblue aircraft, you know, wasn't at excessive speed and extremely close proximity to the southwest aircraft sore we would have had a disaster on our hands here. this is happening more frequently and with air traffic controllers with pilots, and then we're seeing all the other crazy stuff happening over the last couple of months with the airplane, parts falling off, but you know, stress is a key here with these controllers and i think the f.a.a. directive that the administrative announced yesterday to increase that rest time is very critical here and i think that's a great
kelly o'grady has more. >> well, neil, inflation is unfortunately proving harder to tame than expected. and you've seen a number of key metrics that have actually ticked up in the last few months. now, recall that the market cpi came in at 3 1/2% year over year, that's well above the fed's 2% target. the narrative here does appear to be changing. no more celebrating from fed chair powell, instead a hard pivot towards the admission that rates may need to be higher longer. >> and it has not given us confidence and likely to take longer than expect today achieve that confidence. if higher inflation does persist we can maintain the current level of restriction for as long as needed. >> and perhaps not even at the current level. there are analysts warning rates may need to increase, there's a risk that the fed could raise the rate to 6 1/2%
so, he will be kept on the campaign trail-- i think off the campaign trail. i think the biggest thing is the wear and tear on him as a human being. this is really tough and it's not pleasant and i'm sure it's going to wear on him despite the fact he's an energetic guy. neil: he's a clever campaigner. he's making lemonade out of the lemons he's dealt and taking a trip to chick-fil-a and the trip to a bodega. and he scored points doing that, i don't know how often. but you can find some opportunities there. how do you think that part is going? >> look, you're right. think about it, when he gets in the situation and just do the contrast between him and joe biden and who wins that picture, if you will, every time. the bodega, i thought was brilliant and how many opportunities will he have in easy striking distance of the courthouse and the stop in
