more time to finish the job as phil was saying and also that he s not giving up on this congress, even a republican led house, that they still want to work with republicans, that he still has items to check off on his to-do list from executive actions but also the implementation of this i think is going to be really key. they still want to show that they can govern which actually a key contrast point that they want to make with republicans. can i just translate that? this is the launch of campaign 2024. yes. that s where we are. we re going to hear about unity. we re going to hear about the soul of america. we re going to hear the president try to say the economy has been better on his watch. i m told by someone familiar with writing the speech that do not expect red meat attacks on maga or maga republicans. but at the end of the day this is about joe biden launching his next campaign.
angry for immigration. because, as your headline said, for these groups of republicans, cruelty is the point. they think that somehow these displays of inhumanity and racism and hate are going to somehow pump up their base. make them feel better. and going to show that they are fighting for their side. but, i do not believe that that is the majority of americans. i do not believe that in swing states like pennsylvania, ohio, wisconsin. that this is going to go over well. i really do not. senator castro, axios reports that the biden administration is considering legal action over the treatment of these migrants. in your view. how should the white house respond here? it seems that there needs to be a big contrast point? wilder does. and, first of all, the biden administration needs to continue to take effective, and humane steps to manage the flow of asylum seekers that are entering the united states. it is a greater number of
could run into is, you know, trump obviously has a doesn t have much relationship with the truth in a lot of ways, and it s going to be hard for democrats to have a candidate that has some similar issues, maybe not to the same scale, but it provides a contrast point. that could be problematic. when you have other candidates that haven t done this, that haven t conflated anything, that haven t maybe pushed the truth too much. i think that it s not the 1980s. it s also a different time than just two cycles ago. so the fact that a lot of democratic strategists are trying to figure out if they re operating in a post-gaff world in the political realm because of the fact that trump has made some 12,000 or more false or misleading statements, and continues to do so. so whether or not it will hurt their candidate that much if they embellish here or there. and biden has, yes, gotten locations wrong, but he claims the essence of the story is

tuesday for the first time. mary barzee flores, a democrat running for congress in florida, and mary gate scanlon. scanlon is running against pearl kim, who was part of that eight-candidate panel we did, and we invited a lot of other folks to come in who were running against those folks. my thanks to both of you. i guess i ll start with mary gay and say how does gender come up, if at all, for you out on the campaign trail? well, it has certainly come up a lot less in our race since we have two women running against each other. it causes voters to focus on the differences between us. which as you say kind of in a good way cancels out that as a contrast point. what about what might be called women s issues, health care, a lot of debates we ve seen over the supreme court in the past two years? well, certainly and our positions have been very different there. my opponent has not committed to
