We are live in michigan. This is day 12 of the uaw strike against the Big Three Automakers. Biden just became the first sitting president to literally stand with striking workers. Did he just prolong the fight that is hurting consumers . This is ahead of Donald Trumps visit to the key state tomorrow. Were on all of it today. Welcome. Im Charles Payne in for neil cavuto. This is your world. The major impacts with bob nardelli in a minute. First to fox businesss Edward Lawrence who is in wayne, michigan where its all going down right now. Edward . Yeah, charles, this is where President Joe Biden came to meet with the picketers. Theres not many strikers here at the moment. The president on his way right now to mountainview, california for a campaign event. He brought here a message of support. Also he would not say specifically if hes supported the fourday work week or 40 more pay. You guys saved the automobile industry. Made a lot of sacrifices, gave up a lot. The companies were in trouble. Now theyre doing incredibly well. Guess what . You should be doing incredibly well, too. Well, the uaw was not has not at the moment endorsed President Joe Biden. Those on the picket lines had a message for the president about his force transitioned to Electric Vehicles. Talk all day about researching all of that. But to see us here, see what we do and see that we mean we stand behind these companies. We have been the backbone of these companies for so long trying to push us out to these Electric Vehicles, thats not it wont last. You know, were hard workers. We have families. We need this. She says there should be a gas powered option because the ford bronco is more affordable. Theres three big automakers that released similar statements with g. M. Saying our focus is not on politics booger beginning in good faith to reach an agreement as quickly as possible that rewards our work force and allows g. M. To succeed and thrive in to the future. Now, a source familiar says that the Big Three Automakers are still in talks with the uaw. Theyre still at the table. The most active talks at this point were told from a source is with ford. Back to you, charles. Charles thanks. Polls showing economy and inflation are big concerns for americans. Its a big headache for the president. But the longest the strike drags on, more likely the higher prices will go. Want to bring in bob nardelli. Bob, President Biden was boxed in to an interesting corner here. One hand, his policies are at the crux of what is concerning the uaw workers. Hes pushing a climate agenda that is going to put them out of a job. And he counts on their votes. So what do you make of it all . Yeah, charles, good to be with you. I watch with great interest his comments when he said we deserve more. You know, we work very hard. It was all about we, we, we. He didnt say, hey, im the guy that is eliminating your jobs by the mandate of putting Electric Vehicles out there. This is very reminiscent of what happened in 07, 08 and 09 when the Obama Administration put that cafe standard out there and tried to drive miles per gallon 25, 30, 40 miles per gallon. Basically the consumer said we dont want a small car. What happens is the average age of the car part went from 11 to 12. 2 years. Consumers wont buy something they dont want. As long as the uaw is on strike, theres more options today than in 07, 08 and 09. They can go to nissan. They can go to hyundai. They can go a lot of places. Number 2, i think, charles, this has grown into a strong polarization between the president of the uaw that was just recently elected and made some outrageous commitments. Not only a 46 wage increase. And also im going to get you 40 hours pay for 32 hour week. I dont know how you build a car with nobody in the factory and a pension program. That is impossible to do. Lets face it. Ford has the largest number of uaw worker theres and a single benefit that their representative has been in place for a while. The other two, g. M. And stellantis, those are new representatives under this new regime that has broken with a lot of tradition, charles. So this is really concerning to me. For every one uaw worker, theres ten on a the supply side. We could see 1. 5 Million People out of work let alone theres a dealership in every community. People arent going to buy these cars because theyre not sure what they will get. Salesmen will be late. Technicians wont work. This has a compounding impact. I watched your show earlier to a very fragile economy today, charles. Charles it is, absolutely. You brought up a point here. President obama and President Biden have agendas that have nothing to do with the economy. The cafe standards, those are need economies. So whenever an Automobile Company has to have a fleet, they have to have a certain average mile per hour. In the past, they would make small cars or cars made with plastic instead of steel, right . So they can go further. Yeah, they met the standards but you were driving an unsafe care because of the sort of Climate Thing that they both worshipped. So its not economics. Youre right about this uaw guy, bob. He does not have to the best interests of the workers at heart. Hes a Bernie Sanders guy. He has a different agenda all total. Where do you see it all going . Its a difficult position, this is the last time the uaw gets the last bite at the apple. The next time these contracts come around, 30 or 40 wont have a job. Couple very important points, charles. Remember when he said we dont want the president here . This is our battle. Thats not the spirit of a negotiator, number 1. Number 2, uaw is waiting in line. Look, im all for a family being able to keep with inflation that has been created by this administration. So you know, theyre standing in line. They saw ups get 40 , saw American Airlines get 9. 2 billion, the dock workers on the west coast get an increase. Hey, its my turn. Im in line. You cant argue with a family wanting to keep up with inflation. 500 a week, the union the strike fund, that wont go very far. Youll spent 80 to full your tank to go to the picket line. This is a problem. The longest it goes, the more polarized that theyll get between the union and the big three. Then its a matter of who will blink first. Its unfortunate. This didnt have to happen. Charles im glad you mention inflation. Inflation drives work stoppages. We understand what is happening. Appreciate your expertise and wisdom. Thank you, bob. Thank you, charles. Thanks very much. Charles the question is how is all of this going to play out in this 2024 race as that starts to head in to high gear. I want to bring in laura fink now. Laura, you know, the appearance of President Biden. Some say trump will be there tomorrow to egg them on. Hes in an awkward position. These uaw workers, theyre not dumb. They understand whats going on. They understand this is the fight of their life in part because the white house is making it a fight for their life. I think the workers understand that they took it on the chin in 2008 and made sacrifices. Now the bill is coming due for the auto companies. They gave their ceos 20 to 30 raises. 66 billion in stock buybacks the last decade. These companies are pro firedable and the workers deserve a raise and solid retirement and willing to sacrifice to step up and take it. Now they have a president supporting them and having their back. The first time in 100 years a president has walked a picket line. A historic day and strong support for these workers fighting for their families and fighting to raise wages as other works say hey, the companies and the gap between the ceo pay and the average worker pay is too high. 272 to 1. Were going to fight that. Its admirable and i think all americans, most americans approve of what theyre doing and we can see why. Charles most americans approve of what theyre doing because theyre suffering from the same thing. High inflation that President Biden sparked. You know, we have come a long way from a chicken in every pot. It was 1,400 this week, 1,400 next week. Ill see you 2,000. Money, money, money. An avalanche of money. Guess what . Were suffering. Everyone is suffering. Yeah. We applaud what the uaw is doing because everybody is in the same boat with the pain of inflinfla. Theyre worried their jobs will vanish. The mandates, the 2030 mandates, some places like california that would like to make internal Combustion Engines illegal . They know it takes less manpower to make the ev cars and the president is ramming them down our throats. How does he look the Union Workers in the face and say im deliberately taking your job from you . Well, i think temperature Union Workers are facing danger on a lot of fronts. Electric car transition will be have to be managed and theyre standing up President Biden on that front. Exporting jobs. You saw the trump tax cuts that had incentives for companies to ship Jobs Overseas charles no, they didnt. President trump worked hard to bring jobs to america. Come on. You know those jobs got exported. You know who is bringing them home. Charles the trump blame game i thought that card expired. Make your strongest point hes running for president. Im not sure it is. Charles the trump blame card. Lets talk about Building Companies that support those Electric Vehicles. Lets talk about bidding chips charles china is building a lot of them. Theyre licking their chops. To try to put auto workers against one another over solar cars, they know what theyre doing. Charles theyre smart. Theyre fighting for the jobs well see who supports them. Charles theyre fighting for jobs that President Biden doesnt want them to have. Charles how about the republicans . Do they want them to have the jobs . Charles absolutely. Are they on the pocket line . Supporting workers charles that Virtue Signalling i dont think it will be an issue charles that is the phoniest thing in the world. The worst am i virtual singling or the daughter of two Union Workers that understand what its like to live in a family charles President Biden is stabbing these people in the back is despicable. Ill leave it there. You said what you had to say. I said what i had to say. A quick look at the corner of wall and broad if you can stomach it. A rough day today. Investors have to deal with so much. Every piece of Economic Data came in below consensus. Everything is pointing to something ugly ahead of us. The stock market reflected that. By the way, interest rates, thats just one piece of the puzzle. Critics are telling President Biden to get off the picket lines and get to the border. You have to see the lines down there. Were going to go to Chris Olivarez who is here. Democrat senator bob menendez refusing to step down. This despite calls from his own party, theyre piling up. In fact fellow new jersey senator cory Booker Joining the frey. Why the Bribery Chargeses against menendez are starting to have a lot of democrats really worried. This isnt just freight. These arent just shipments. Theyre promises. Promises of all shapes and sizes. Each, with a time and a place theyve been promised to be. A promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. Every day, businesses everywhere are asking is it possible . With comcast business. It is. Is it possible to help keep our Online Platform safe from cyberthreats . Absolutely. Can we provide health care virtually anywhere . We can help with that. Is it possible to use predictive monitoring to address Operations Issues . We can help with that, too. With the advanced connectivity and intelligence of global secure networking from comcast business. Its not just possible. Its happening. Charles you can feel the excitement, right, folks . The debate stage is set. Looking live at the Reagan Library in simi valley, california. Seven gop president ial hopefuls will be facing off tomorrow night on fox business. This comes as the border crisis is becoming one of the top issues on voters minds. Doesnt bill melugin know it. Youve covered this like nobody else, man. Good afternoon, charles. Theres going to be seven gop candidates on stage tomorrow night. A little smaller than the first debate. Thats because the rnc has tightened up the standards a little bit. The field and the positions are now officially set. Lets get a look. Take a look. Far left of stage is north dakota governor doug burrgen, chris christie, tim scott and mike pence. These positioned determined by averages in polling. Florida Governor Ron Desantis making the border a centerpiece of his campaign. Illegal crossings surge back to record highs. He says hes willing to go to drastic lengths in order to secure the border. He says that includes using lethal force against cartel members. He elaborated on that point in an interview with abc news lindsey davis. Take a listen. Were not going to let our country overrun with fentanyl. We have Tens Of Thousands of Fentanyl Deaths every year now. Its all coming from across the border. Vivek ramaswamy making the border a centerpiece of his campaign as well. The point hes making is the u. S. Is sending so much money to ukraine to secure its borders. He says we should do the same here at home. He says if elected on day one, hes going to send the u. S. Military down to the Southern Border with or without congressional authorization. Take a listen. We can use military at somebody elses border, we can use our own military to secure our own border. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump is skipping this debate once again citing his commanding lead in polling over his gop opponents. He says these other candidates are simply wasting their time by running. He says he considers these debates to be Job Interviews and right now hes not too interested. Back out here live, senator tim scott says President Biden should be getting off the picket lines and heading to the Southern Border because of the illegal crossings takes place. One person that is going to the Southern Border, elon musk posting on x that he will be visiting eagle pass to see the situation for himself. Eagle pass has been inundated with thousands of illegal crossings every day going on the past week or so. Now back to you. Charles we know in part because of your great work, bill. Thanks. To the border, likely of course its going to continue to be a top issue for voters. Migrants continue the stream in. Cbp sources telling fox news there were 9,000 migrant encounters in just the last 24 hours. To someone on the front lines of this crisis, Texas Department of Public Safety lieutenant, chris onli olivarez. Elon musk coming down there. Hes got this amazing platform that a lot of people look at. Hes carved out a unique niche for himself among the public. Maybe that helps. You know . We need more people to know about this. Feels like most of the mass media keeps ignoring this situation. Right, charles. With elon musk, the platform that he has and the influence that he has to get the message out would help in some cases. Of course, what were seeing on the border, we know some of the media doesnt cover what is happening on the border especially the threats that we see that do cause harm not only to our state in texas but the country. We talk about Public Safety and National Security threats. Theres more broader issue than what we see sometimes. Im talking more than just what we see as far as voluntary those individuals that are voluntary around turn themselves in to the Border Patrol. Were talking about threats, the drugs, the criminals, the fentanyl. Criminal cartels that are operating along the border that have operational control. Those are the real issues that we need to focus on. This is going to be a primary issue for voters. It does affect everyone. Not just in texas but every state in this country. Every state is a border state. Charles to that point, its Heart Breaking for the reason. Every state is a border state. In large part because of the Fentanyl Deaths. Our kids are dieing across this country at an alarming rate. Its a national crisis. Its just beyond me really why this is not in the top two orb three topics. Its moving up there, but its sort of bizarre to say this. Now were starting to get some recognition. Do you see that helping your cause, helping you get more help down there . Well, we hope so, charles. Its more for the families. The ones that have lost loved ones. The hundreds of thousands of families that have been devastated because they lost someone due to fentanyl. Our troopers have seized over 431 million lethal doses in the state of texas. Thats one agency. If we can get the message out and spread more awareness about this poison coming across our borders, thats what we need to do. Thats the priority to focus on that particular issue. Trying to stop the drugs coming across the borders. Take the fight to the mexican drug cartels and take a more aggressive stand at the federal level. We need the federal government to do their job and secure the border and protect our country. Charles appreciate having you on. Thanks for your service. We know its a tough job. Thanks, chris. Appreciate it, charles. Charles facing more calls to resign. Were talking bob menendez. Hes still digging in. A lot of democrats sweating it out. Can a shutdown be avoided before the week out . To Aishah Hasnie on the hill. Aishah . Its looking more and more likely were going to shut down. If we shut down in those cbp officers at the border will not be getting paid. Even if youre not a federal worker out there watching, this could still impact your daytoday life. Ill explain coming up. Youre in a hurry. Im off to americas best i heard what you said about not overpaying for glasses. Two pairs and a free, quality eye exam starting at just 79. 95 . The exam alone is worth. 59 bucks. I mean, people deserve breaks, right . Yeah, brakes. [out of control] book an exam today at americasbest. Com. Im patriotic kenny. And, hi, im amanda. My scooter broke down. I went into a depression. how do you feel about that . pretty sad. I posted it to show that kennys not always happy. Within 24 hours people had donated over 5,000. No, youre kidding. we set up the Patriotic Kenny Foundation to give Mobility Scooters to veterans. it has changed my life tremendously. none of this wouldve happened without tiktok. charles less than five days for congress to pass a Spending Measure to keep the lights on or the government will shut down. How is that going right now . To Aishah Hasnie with the very latest. Aishah . It depends who you ask, charles. I can tell you Speaker Mccarthy is doing what the holdouts have been asking him to do, which is pass a budget. Fund the government that way. Hes going to try to at least pass 70 of the budget this week. First of all, he has to pass it through the house and then get through the senate. Its not going to fund the entire government. Were still right now barrelling towards at least a partial government shutdown. If that happens, it will affect a lot of different things. For example, parents that rely open head start centers, the federally fundle preschool centers, could lose that care. Also Airport Workers like air traffic controllers, they will have to work without pay. They may just decide not to show up to work causing major travel delays. National parks and museums will close. If you had any travel plans to go to yosemite or the grand canyon, you would have to reconsider. Food and rail safety would stop. Worst of all, Accty Duty Military Families will miss paychecks. So would Border Patrol agents at the Southern Border right now. Nobody on capitol hill wants shut down. The last one left a 3 billion dent to our economy. Theres a big blame game going on about why the budget wasnt done sooner. Speaker mccarthy saying today, its not his fault. Theyre making progress now. I have been trying to get individual bills since july. We have an ag bill. We put a rule together that we can bring four of them together. That would take up 72 of all the spending. Now, over in the senate, that i are working on a continuing resolution, getting close to that sometimes today. If they can pass that and send it to the house, that could be brought to the floor for a vote. But if Speaker Mccarthy calls on democrats to help pass that cr, hes looking at a possible motion to vacate. A lot of Drama Building here on the hill. Charles certainly is. You can cut it with a knife. Thanks, aishah. So meanwhile, in washington, the ftc delivering on its threat to sue amazon. They join 17 states today in a massive lawsuit. What is it all about . To susan li with the latest. Susan . The second ftc lawsuit against amazon many three months. This time theyre alleging amazon illegally blocks competition and hurts 100 million plus shoppers with higher plus prices. 17 states including new york and pennsylvania joining the ftc in suing the largest E Commerce Player in the country. Leena khan appointed by the Biden Administration made her name as a yale law student. He says amazon is exploiting its monopoly power. This is about competition that has been foregone. As a result of amazons tactics, people are paying higher price. Consumers are paying more than they would. Small businesses are having to pay a 50 amazon tax. The tactics include antidiscounting measures. They are forcing retailers to use Expensive Services to be a part of prime. We reached out to amazon. They said if the ftc wins there would be higher prices, fewer products and slower deliveries for customers. Amazon is now 1. 3 trillion giant. Not only the Biggest Online retailer in america, but the second largest private employer with a million plus Warehouse Workers and with dominant Cloud Provider with aws providing half of the market. The Antitrust Suits will take several years in the courtrooms. The ftc has been on the losing end in recent high profile cases including losing its case that block had 70 billion microsoft actvision deal. Thanks very much.

Charles democratic senator gary peters joining in the list for bob menendez to resign. He joins 18 democrats. Bryan llenas has more. This morning it was three. Now 19 Senate Democrats are calling on senator bob menendez to resign. You mentioned it. Senator gary peters of michigan the latest senator to call for his resignation joining gillibrand, klobuchar and kay it is. Majority leader Chuck Schumer and dick durbin say that menendez deserves a fair trial. Nancy pelosi says he should step down. The charges are formidable. Probably be a good idea if he did resign. The pressure on menendez is ramping up as his longtime friend and colleague new jersey democrat senator cory booker called on menendez to step down writing in part Senator Menendez fiercely asserts his innocence and it is 3 fore understandable that he believes stepping down is unfair. But i believe this is a mistake. I believe that stepping down is best for those Senator Menendez has spent his life serving. Democrat new jersey congressman andy kim says Hi Will Primary Menendez next year. The calls for resignation come amid concern that this could damages that the senate could hold on to their majority. Menendez indicated yesterday that hes not going anywhere. At least three republican senator as agree he should not including tim cotton writing Senator Menendez has a right to test the governments evidence in court just like any other citizen. He should be judged by jurors and new jersey voters, not by democratic politicians. One of menendezs coconspirators, will hannah was arraigned today. He pled not guilty. Menendez is in tomorrow for his a ryanment. Charles is Senator Menendez putting his entire party in gem did here . Sarah bedford on the political fallout. From 3 to 19, just today, you have a feeling that number will keep going on. I know the leadership will stay out of it. Isnt that telling us the party is worried this will go beyond new jersey . Yeah, im surprised that that number isnt it higher. For democrats, this seems like a cost free proposition to call for his resignation. This is a blue state with a democratic governor. He can be replaced by a democrat if Governor Phil Murphy has to appoint someone to replace him in the event he does resign, this is a state that had a close call with a republican almost winning statewide in 2021. Phil murphy almost lost. So democrats have to worry that if bob menendez who was in cycle right now, hes up for reelection next year, if he fights that battle while fighting court charges, that could leave the door open to losing a safe democratic seat. I can see why democrats want him out of there. Charles what i thought was interesting as menendez defended himself, it felt like the same rebuke could have been used by anyone republicans especially with the constant legal attacks on former president trump. You know, sort of interesting in a sense that, you know, its like innocent until Proven Guilty and theyre ln me kind of stuff. It feels like as long as hes there defending himself its interesting. Senator tom cotton a republican, came to his defense. Yeah, i think thats another reason why democrats are going to be weary to stand up and defend menendez here. Their entire 2024 strategy has to do with painting donald trump as guilty and unfit to serve because hes under indictment regardless of the outcome of those trials, which havent begun yet. So to have a prominent democrat fighting who is arguably fighting more serious charges undermining their message. One voice i dont dont hear calling is joe biden. As joe biden is undergoing this impeachment inquiry, i wonder if the white house is reluctant to set a standard where corruption shouldnt necessitate a resignation. Charles the image of the gold bars. The cash is amazing. The image of the gold bars and cashing them in, 13 of them, it will stay with us forever. Thats right. Dozens of Halloween Costumes across washington d. C. Will involved menendez jackets with gold bars and cash. I think this is a really vivid illustration of corruption. Menendez says he wants to hold on to his seat while he fights his battle, this is a difficult case to explain away. He didnt mention the gold bars when he gave the press conference. Charles yeah, he said he took money out of the bank for 30 years. The cash part. Gold bars are legal. But very few can afford 13 of them. Thanks, sarah. Appreciate it. Thank you. Charles we have ro khanna coming up. Well ask if hes joining the calls for menendez to step down. First, the crime on the rise in california. Business owners there are fed up and now locking up. Our city is under siege. We to longer want to be held hostage while we cant go outside. The people are sick and tired of this. They want safety and they want it now. Wolf dont mind me. Im just the flu. coughing, sneezing im quite harmless, really. And when people ask, but arent you linked to dangerous flu complications. coughing, sneezing. . Like pneumonia, heart attack, and hospitalizations . coughing, gasping. . I just say, but im just the flu. sniffs Elevator Dings its him who . Im just the flu. Fight the flu with higherdose flu vaccines from sanofi. Theyre proven to provide better Flu Protection than standarddose flu shots in older adults. Theyve even been shown to better protect against flurelated complications. Dont get fluzone® highdose quadrivalent. If youve had a severe allergic reaction to its components. Including egg products, or after previous dose of flu vaccine. Dont get flublok® quadrivalent. If youve had a severe allergic reaction to its components. Tell your health care professional. If youve had severe Muscle Weakness after a flu shot. People with weakened Immune Systems may have a lower vaccine response. Demand more from your flu shot. To get a sanofi vaccine, make sure to ask for it by name. Schedule your sanofi flu shot. Available at these preferred national pharmacies. Theres something going around the gordon home. Good thing gertrude found delsym. Now whats going around is 12hour cough relief. And the giggles. The family that takes delsym together, feels better together. Charles target just announcing theyre closing nine stores due to crime and violence. A few are in california. Thats where more than 200 businesses in the oakland area. They just staged a protest for the very same ridge. William la jeunesse has more. The first person that spoke at todays protest said something you rarely hear. As a proud progressive, she said it pained her to admit that the progressive policies were not working. 65 of the City Residents identify as progressive, a vast majority say theyd need more police. Thats one reason that the shop and restaurants owners went on strike today closing down because residents are too afraid to leave their homes and that means theyd cant make a living. Without basic safety, theres no community. Without safety, theres no city. Without basic safety, theres only chaos. So Violent Crime in the city is up 20 this year. Robbery 30 . Car breakinses, 50 or nearly 40 cars a day. So watch this recent robbery. A man is going to get out of his car or get in his car rather when two guntoting thieves will take his keys and wallet. Two witnesses are going to see what is happening and theyre going to step in, smashing out the windows of the getaway car. Look at whats going on. Afghanistan is safer than oakland. What is the problem, oakland . Wake up. These protesters met Outside Oakland Restaurant that is closing after 38 years because of crime. Critics call the protest a publicity stunt. The mayor says she understands. My home was broken in to. They saw my son inside the home. They kept going. It has traumatized my son. I understand that. I get that. So charles, as you mentioned about target, today said they were closing one store in new york, two in seattle, three in portland and three in san francisco. Oakland because of retail theft made the stores unprofitable and the threat to staff and shoppers. Back to you. Charles thanks. So what is it going to take to crack down on this crime crisis . Ro khanna joins me now. You heard democrats presumably out there saying its like afghanistan. One making a comment that without basic safety, theres no community. What do you tell these people . Theres no doubt that in certain cities in california that crime is a huge issue. We need to have better law enforcement. You cant just break in to a target or walgreens and not have consequences. You cant engage in carjacking and not have consequences. People have to be arrested if they commit these crimes. They have to be held accountable. In Silicon Valley, we have 10 trillion of market value. A lot of businesses. We have we enforce the law. We have basic Public Safety in san jose, fremont, other safety which makes it some of the best areas to race families. I believe that should be the standard around california. Charles with a all due respect, you know, what youre saying is kind of Heart Breaking in a sense that ive looked at apples headquarters. You cant just stroll there. Its in an isolated area in the middle of the forest. Every one goes and theres this nice circular tube and they work. Its the same thing with the Silicon Valley companies. They have their own headquarters off the beaten path. Its great. You go to their homes, they live in mansions. What about middle class folks, poor people . You going to let them fend for themselves . Are we going to see scenes where people have to take a tire iron and try to fight back against criminals . Is it a modern day wild, wild west . Charles, you should come to my district. Ill take you to fremont, san jose. We can have good indian food. Its a very diversion district. We have Public Safety in my district. Im responsible for my district. Its not just tech companies. We have a lot of Public Safety. We value our police officers. Charles i really respect you a lot, representative can ro khanna. You have to admit companies are leaving your state. You just heard from hundreds of Business Owners in oakland that are suffering. Its just suffering. What are you saying to them . Youre going to arrest people. But if theyre back out the next day or a couple hours later, shouldnt there be a top to bottom changing of the laws . I remember this was a three strikes state . You went too far there. You put people in prison for life because they stole a loaf of broad. The pendulum has swung back the other way too far. I agree with that i was opposed to three strikes. The pendulum bill cant be the other way. If you commit a crime, you have to have consequences. Especially if youre doing something as blatant as a carjacking, like breaking in to a store. What i would say to folks, in our district, theres models in sunniville, for example, where we have effective Public Safety. I would say why cant we do that in every part of the state . Youre right. Theres some cities that are not enforcing the law. Its wrong. Charles i have to quickly switch gears and ask you about the diamond to senator bob menendez. Do you think he should resign in light of these Bribery Charges . Well, its sad the allegations are shocking. I agree with senator booker and many of my new jersey colleagues that he probably cant be effective. Its for new jersey to decide. Beyond the resignation, we need renorm. Ive called for banning lobbyist money, having term limits for members of congress, not having stock trading, making sure we dont have members of congress become lobbyists. When are we going to talk about systemic reform . Charles if i headquarters a tambourine, i would have been playing it while you ran off the list. Im with you on every one of them. Appreciate it. Thank you. Charles lets win one for the gipper. Were talking about the Fox Business Debate at the Reagan Library. Art laffer says that theres one issue that could get these republican candidates their break out if they really want to break out. Railroads top money man will tell us what it is next. Dry skin is sensitive skin, too. And its natural. Treat it that way. Aveeno® Daily Moisture with prebiotic oat is proven to moisturize dry skin all day. Youll love our formula for face, too. Aveeno® this isnt just freight. These arent just shipments. Theyre promises. Promises of all shapes and sizes. Each, with a time and a place theyve been promised to be. A promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. Charles owen wright, and we know the economy will be taking center stage at the Debate Stage Tomorrow Night at the reagan president ial library and with new reports showing Consumer Confidence is plunging, what is it going to take to get things moving up again . Art laffer, former Economic Advisor to president megan, very similar to this, propelling him to office in his first year. We need you right now.
