and now he sort of anti trump, kind of not, but you know. joe biden is bad. so don t expect mike pence to find new courage. the problem on the debate stage, and there are a few problems, one of them is that it s going to be moderated by fox anchors. so i don t think that the kind of question that we want to see happen where the kind of moments we like to see happen between those candidates. it s going up on that stage. the other problem is, none of these candidates, with the exception of chris christie is running against trump. they are all running against each other. so they are actually mostly spending their time trying to show that they are more loyal than the other. and pandering to him. so it will be a more interesting debate if he is on in some ways, but in other ways, if he s on, it s just going to be the kind of odd spectacle of people running for second place. i don t think they take me up on the offer, but i would be happy to moderate that gop debate if they would take me.
bill is echoed over and over again. well, politically, goo right nos there are no good options for biden if he stays on the path wl that he s on, meaning he to fall doesn t budge the market. the stoc hk market will continug to fall if he agrees to some spending cuts. t. he incurs the wrath of the farbe left. joe biden is trapped between his donors who don t wantsqua the market to collapse, and the squad types who are finemu with borrowing and taxing as much as possible. goi they don t care. so biden has said he s get only going to agree to tax cuts if he gets tax increases.x in wellcr, and everything broke don after that every hour of every day until early june, speaker mccarthy and house republicans should be very clear and say tog publicly, hey,et we came togeths in late april, way before the deadline, and we passed a sensible bill to raise the debt ceiling, but the senate won t take it up. the we urge the senate to bring itsn to the floor. it may have 51 votes and that would of cour
drama of whether or not he can be, when he s on, he could be. great he can put those worries tibet. like he did at the state of the union, like he did when he made that surprise visit to kyiv. but it also means that his stumbles gets attention as well. yeah, we should know as we see live pictures of people arriving, including the white house press secretary the president and the first lady have met with the family of evan gershkovich as well as the family of brittney griner. we ll talk about that tonight, and obviously the importance of what has happened to them and others throughout the evening. but molly, let s pivot to some of the news from this week, and it has been quite a week of news. you know, let s start with a big announcement that joe biden is running for reelection, the focus of his first campaign ad being what i think a lot of people anticipated it to be, freedom. you had a top democratic poll start telling new york magazine,
court in washington, d.c. that is the court he s on. i don t believe we have any knowledge whether there s grand jury activity or the type of challenges before him. thank you so much. let s talk about this with former republican congressman adam kinzinger, and former u.s. attorney elly honig. you re familiar with this new york office. when you hear michael cohen suggest that he was asked about topics broader than the hush money scheme to keep stormy daniels quiet, what does that tell you? that the d.a. is trying to look at every angle here, as good prosecutors, good investigators should. i think the stormy daniels hush money payment remains the primary focus, but are there more charges or counts here? you want to give yourself more ways to win, more ways to get a conviction and you want to make sure you re accounting for criminality. so that s a smart move by the d.a., and it s not unexpected.
