diplomatic and inviting them out to the white house and he needs to hold a press conference. let them know you re going to be by my side and be with me and getting rid of the filibuster or i m gassing up the jet on your behind and i will be in arizona and west virginia directly and let the american people know who is standing in the way of my entire agenda, not just voting rights, but.gas up the jet. you see, you hearings you don t need to explain the anger and the frustration right there. the challenge though is in a mid-term election if you have a democratic civil war that makes a tough campaign environment even worth. yeah. i don t i think that what the white house could do to help president biden and his approval ratings and his chances in the mid terms is get some wins in things that they can control. it s clear they can t control congress much right now, but you can control, you know, the supply chain and testing for covid and things like that
challenges again. steve, appreciate the live reporting and we ll stay on top of it. no secret that immigration is a motivating basis for the gop base and they began attacking biden border administration policies on day one and now comes the test of the mid-term clout, both in republican primaries and in the fight critical to control congress. priscilla alvarez joins us to share now reporting. reporter: immigration has investigated the biden administration and immigration halts have seen an opportunity. take stephen miller. he was the senior adviser to former president donald trump and the architect of his hardline immigration policies and he told me he s talking to republican party officials and to republican candidates on this issue saying that they need to elevate the issue, and he s not alone. immigration hardliners are preparing to spend millions, preparing to put out ads attacking the biden administration s bothered policy and immigration policy writ large, and here is why, jo
process so we don t know what his district is going to end up looking like, but you d be hard pressed to find another republican that can win in that part of new york, especially if it s centered around an urban center like syracuse and this is a blow to the republicans counting on this seat and a boon for democrats that they were not likely expecting. thanks for bringing out that breaking news. up next, president biden s brutal week, big setbacks in congress and in the courts, so an effort today to celebrate one big success, and, yes, to try to turn the page. with up to 50% more lotion, puffs bring soothing relief. a nose in need deserves puffs indeed. america s #1 lotion tissue.
because, you know, the bully pulpit right now is not where biden is being successful, so i think he need to perhaps pivot away from that, at least in the short term. is that the way through, it manu, if you put up our poll of polls where the president stand right now. again, it s a long way to know. we kin sert all the cliches, but if you look at the numbers right there, if 42% approve and 53% disapprove, if that hold anything like that come october when people are ready to vote in november, then the democrats are going to lose both the house and the senate. what can they do, and isn t the fact that i get it. there s a giant concern, a legitimate concern in the country about testing, but that so many democrats are willing to publicly send a letter to the white house saying you are failing this test, what does that tell you right now about the president s stabbeding in his own party? look, no matter what they do even in congress right now, that is not going to have much of an impa
package where things stumbled out of the gate, and it really just kind of shows you how his persuasion powers are limited here. and tia, to that point, seung min mentioned and you heard the president say fight on. in some ways they have no choice which is why this morning from the vice president she says, yes, we re losing at the moment but same word, fight. listen. well, we keep fighting. we are we are committed to seeing this through. however long it takes and whatever it takes, and so today, for example, i will be continuing with extensive meetings and discussions about how we can see this through. no president likes to have a vote on the floor of congress when he s going to lose but this president has no choice because the base demands the vote, even if it goes down, right? they have no choice, but they are in a no-win situation because they also runt risk, an this is what we saw in georgia last week, that the voting rights activists in some of
