your fuel is up 40%, when real wages are down 1.7% you have this perfect storm and the only solution that democrats offer is raise your taxes and spend more money. spending more money is going to exacerbate the problem, not solve the problem. the federal government is spending about one out of every $4 spernt in this country is spent by the federal government. you can t continue to sustain that. the only solution that biden/harris and democrats over is build back better. let s spend trillions more and make the problems worse. harris: if he can even get that. maybe they ll get something to give the president a win. the big question, kevin, would be, too, what about the american people? why does the president and why does it take him so long to catch up with where everybody is on this issue? they ve been saying for months things are really expensive and for months gasoline was headed in the wrong direction.
the president was in virginia yesterday greeted by protestors who were chanting you know now the infamous let s go brandon. not as nice as he might think it is. we ve seen him get confused about what it really means. moderate montana senator john tester said the political party is toast in november if something doesn t change. i honestly don t think the democratic party can be a majority party unless we start appealing to middle america a lot more. the area between the two mountain ranges. and if we re able to do that, i think it will provide success. harris: sean duffy is on the mezzanine with me. fox news contributor and former wisconsin congressman and i just want to welcome you. we ve been feathering back. thank you for being with me today. this is the mez?
pack from toledo ohio or youngstown ohio or dayton, ohio, you are done. they deplatformed you and stomped on your freedom of speech. this is what they do every day to conservatives and pro-trump republicans. pete: josh mandel thank you for your time. thanks, pete. pete: stick around the second hour of fox & friends starts right now. ukraine on high alert over fears that russia will launch a full scale attack. the kind of attack they are talking about is a massive ballistic missile attack. this isn t just about russia. this is china, iran, north korea. leadership must change and if it doesn t change. americans need to get ready for the worst. we heard it directly from president putin himself his plan all along has been to reclaim ukraine as a part of russia. do you wish that obama had done stricter sanctions in 2014. oh, yes, i do. overwhelming majority of prosecutors wanted george gascon recalled. gascon s policies lead to a
rights to affirmative action. some of these justicis including justice sotomayor at this point may be working toward the future as opposed to the past. what s the way in which these women whomever is appointed makes their mark, changes the court even if the math doesn t change for another several years? i think we have to think about service on the supreme court as a long horizon. these justices are being appointed on younger ages on both the democrat and the republican side. all of the nominees here are at shooting range between 40 to 55. they can expect to have a 30-year career in their 80s. so a lot can change in that timeframe. so for now, they are definitely going to be in the minority and likely to be writing dissents, dissents that may have to lay out a path in the future for a different majority to come together and something to see
decisions. kimberly, what happens now? democrats have not been as enthusiastic about the process of getting supreme court justices appointed as republicans have certainly in the last few decades, but at this point joe biden says there will be a black woman appointed to the court. we have we re looking at three candidates and at the moment they all look very, very solid, but it will not change the math on the supreme court. so how does that how does one fix this issue of our time? the erosion of voting right which is is leading to a degradation of democracy? yes, so even though pesident biden will leave his mark on the supreme court with this appointment it will not change the ideology of the court. it will make the court look more like america by having a black woman, but she will more than definitely on this issue and many more be speaking in dissent, speaking for the future instead of speaking to change
