country into the pariah of the middle east. we re told he s going to meet with the man intelligence officials say is responsible for the brutal murder of jamal khashoggi. is this a mistake? i think it is. i wouldn t go. i wouldn t shake his hand. i want nothing to do with him. and i understand the president has to deal with a whole variety of difficult issues, but i wouldn t go. this is someone who, you know, was involved in the premeditated murder of a u.s. resident, a journalist, who has a terrible human rights record. and it just goes to show you how the need for fossil fuels so distorts our foreign policy and causes to us act in ways not consistent with our values. you know, you add another argument on top of the fact we re destroying the planet weaning ourselves off foreign oil but fossil fuels zoological representative schiff, always a pleasure to have you.
day after dramatic testimony where the january 6th committee showed what went on behind the scenes at the white house after president trump was told that he lost the election but refused to believe it and instead pushed his election lies. we are watching two key races in south carolina. that s where two gop members of the house are fighting to win renomination, both facing candidates backed by the former president. representative tom rice is one of ten house republicans that voted to impeach former president trump after the insurrection at the capitol. representative nancy mace didn t vote to impeach trump but refused to join if pack of house republicans who tried to block certification of joe biden s victory and has been aligning herself with the former president ever since. and polls just closed in nevada where a trump-backed candidate is running for the republican senate nomination. and in south carolina we re seeing more results coming in. and that s why i have the best
we re in right now. gas is $5 a gallon, the stock market is tumbling into a bear market. that is really the reality. but you said there are things that we can do, larry, including legislation and there are things that the president can actually do as well. but it s going to take some time. when i had you here in late april, we talked about this when you were predicting this. and we talked about how long it would possibly last. how long are we going to be with inflation this high? i would be very surprised if we didn t still have inflation at a meaningful rate a year from now. i think it s likely to come down from the 8% plus range it s been at, but we re still going to have inflation for quite some time. we re probably going to have a slowing economy as well, so there s going to be an element
