Expand the social safety net, and trying to avoid a government shutdown, in the midst of a not under control pandemic, hes dealing with the aftermath of a hurricane. He traveled to New Jersey and New York to see the devastation and meet with families who have survived the storms aftermath. Just four days ago, lets not forget, he spent time in louisiana, which took a direct hit from ida, which then went on to kill almost 30 people in the state of New Jersey alone. This afternoon, he linked the storm to the climate, while pitching his proposals to protect our country from future disasters. The evidence is clear. Climate change poses an existential threat. Experts tell us, this is code red. The nation and the world are in peril. My build back better plan, cutting emissions, making us more resilient.

Merrick garland the ju california, gavin newsom. Its been largely driven by forces on the right who objected to his covid shutdowns and mandates. The man who started the Recall Campaign announced today that he has covid. And dozens of american citizens and afghans holding visas to the united states or other countries remain stranded on the tarmac, said to be stuck on the aircraft sitting at the airport at the northern part of afghanistan, awaiting taliban permission to take off. Today, the Secretary Of State said the u. S. Is working with the taliban to resolve the problem. They said theyll let people with Travel Documents freely depart. Well hold them to that. Its my understanding that the taliban has not denied exit to anyone holding a valid document. But they have said that those without valid documents at this point cant leave. Because all of these people are grouped together, thats meant that flights have not been allowed to go. T leadership today. Which appears to lean toward a hardline, extremist bent, much like the old taliban regime. This is something of a Caretaker Government to run the country, since there is no one else to do that. Several of those named today reportedly listed by the united states and the u. N. As terrorists. The biggest antitaliban protest yet was brought to an end in kabul. Meanwhile, one of the key figures in the 9 11 attacks was back in the courtroom today. Khalid sheikh muhammad. Coming just days before the 20th anniversary of 9 11. Pretrial hearings have been going on for more than a decade. With that, lets bring in our Starting Line on this postholiday tuesday night. Phillip rucker, of the washington post. Eugene robinson of the washington post. And a. B. Stoddard, good evening, and welcome to you all. Phil, id like to begin with you, Ashley Parker writes, the president s handling of such disasters also lets him push a message that has been central to his appeal since he was a candidate. That government can work for people, and bipartisanship, at least in moments of crisis, still exists. Phil, i guess the question is, is this viewed as a pivotal time, aka, and more cynically, perhaps, a change in subject for the White House, at least an opportunity . Certainly, brian, its a pivotal time for President Biden and for his administration. Because of all of the crises converging this fall. And because of increasingly dire political standing that hes in. The poll that came out a couple of days ago showed his Approval Rating has actually fallen below 50 . It stands now at 44 among all americans approving of his handling as president. His numbers have declined specifically to the coronavirus and the War In Afghanistan and to the economy. That spells trouble for a president with a Razorthin Majority in the house and a 50 50 split in the senate. Hes trying to muscle through a number of bigticket legislative items. The Infrastructure Deal still has not passed the house, and is currently sort of At A Standstill in congratulations. In congress. But even more importantly for this White House, that 3. 5 trillion domestic Agenda Plan is really in trouble on capitol hill. Axios is reporting that senator Joe Manchin, the democrat from west virginia, is only going to be willing to spend up to 1. 5 trillion. Thats trouble for biden. He cant afford to lose a single democratic vote on that bill. So this is certainly a pivotal time for the president. Eugene, let me read you the quote from our reporting of Hans Nichols at axios. You can hear fellow democrats saying, with friends like these, who needs republicans in the senate. Senator Joe Manchin has privately warned the White House and congressional leaders that he has specific Policy Concerns with President Bidens 3. 5 trillion social spending dream. And Hell Support as little as 1 Trillion of it at most. Hes open to supporting 1. 5 trillion, sources familiar with the discussions say. What can the democrats do about this . Well, they can try to work out a deal. And a way forward. You know, what President Biden and the democrats have going for them in this negotiation about infrastructure, human infrastructure, whether its 3. 5 trillion or Manchins Marker now of 1. 5 trillion, this is arithmetic. Generally speaking, arithmetic is on the easier end of the scale in terms of complicated things to get worked out in washington. As opposed to, you know, Social Policy and, you know, voting rights, for example. Youre not going to get republican votes on that. Youre not going to get you are going to have to get around the filibuster somehow. I think anybody who writes this off and says, well, this is a 2 TrillionGap And Theyll never close it, i think, is potentially wrong. Certainly premature. You know, thats a marker. Manchin has put out a marker. And so lets see how the talks and Negotiations Progress from here. But, you know, arithmetic can be worked out. And my hunch is that in The End, it will get worked out. But it wont be easy. So, a. B. , a serious question for those who dont follow the ins and outs of Party Politics on capitol hill. How do republicans receive remarks like that from Joe Manchin, reporting like this in axios . Do they view him for the purposes of their transactional existence as a friend of theirs right now . Well, Joe Manchin is credited with getting an Infrastructure Deal together. One of the lead negotiators that 19 republicans supported. Which is extraordinary. That is now on the table as an actual bill that has been passed by a chamber that progressives are threatening to hold up if they dont get what they want in the reconciliation bill. Joe manchin was there for the president on the 1. 9 trillion covid relief bill. I think hes going to be there for the White House on this bill. Its just going to be smaller than 3. 5 trillion. It will not be what Bernie Sanders wants. Hes the head of the Budget Committee in the senate. He literally said ten days ago, its already too small at 3. 5, and im done negotiating. He wanted between 6 Trillion and 10 trillion. The democrats will tailor it in ways that involve math. There will be Pay Fors and revenue streams. And it will be fuzzy federal math that in the End None of us understand that will get it across the finishing line. But it will not be at the Price Tag it appears to have now. It will be something that can be rationalized by the moderate democrats in congress, who face elections next year as bidens numbers slide. Alexandria ocasiocortez, ayanna pressley, and members of the squad, theyll be handily elected in the districts that are bright blue. Its the ones who are seeing the president , once popular at over 50 a few months ago, slide in popularity. And that makes their midterm campaigns much harder. So i do believe in The End this will get passed. And i think its sliding in the direction right now of the moderates. Phil, speaking of a national crisis that requires an enormous national outlay of expenditures, can you preview what were likely to hear from the president later this week on the pandemic . Well, brian, i think were going to hear even more urgency from the president about the pandemic. Remember, kids are back in school in many places around the country now. And more and more workers are going to work. Going into their offices, resuming something of a normal routine. Even as the Delta Variant rages, and covid is still very much alive. Hospitals are under siege. And the president , i think, will try to get control, or at least convince the american public that he and his team have some control over the situation as we head into winter. Because nobody wants to go through another winter like the winter we went through last year. And so i think youre going to hear from the president a more forceful plea to get vaccinated. The White House has been buoyed in recent weeks by the number of vaccinations around the country. More and more people seem to be listening. And yet its still not enough to get control of this virus. And i think its going to be priority Number One for this administration to continue that vaccination push, while trying to convince the public that the health team, that the administration have the situation as under control as they possibly can. Eugene, lets talk about the antiAbortion Legislation in texas. And this specifically, the administration is under intense pressure on the subject of choice. Their options, federally, as i read them, are rather limited, no . Yeah. I dont believe, again, im not a lawyer, much less a constitutional scholar, but i think theres very little the administration can do. On the other hand, as a political matter, the Texas Bill is such an overreach. And so weird and so unamerican in its summoning of armies of vigilantes to report on their neighbors if they happen to, you know, give somebody a ride to an abortion clinic. That, just in political terms, im not i think, its a terrible piece of legislation, and a terrible threat to women in texas. But just in strict political terms, i think this will be a widely unpopular law in most of the country. And seen as going too far. As a political boost in those suburbs that Joe Biden took away from the republicans in 2020. And that democrats need to take again next year in order to keep those Swing House seats. And potentially grow their margin in the senate. A. B. , lets shift our focus overseas by way of washington. Afghanistan looms large still. I want to play for you these comments from Wouldbe Defense SecretaryLindsey Graham. The taliban are not reformed. Theyre not new. Theyre going to give Safe Haven to al qaeda. Were going to be going back into afghanistan and syria. You Cant Deal with this over the horizon. Other than proving the point over again that the view is much easier from the cheap seats, what is going on here . Well, Lindsey Graham is a hawk. And there are very few of them left in his party. And he knows that. And he tried to convince president trump, his good friend, to not abandon the kurds and do a lot of different things. And graham is, again, just speaking for a small minority of the republican party of yesteryear. And the Withdrawal Policy is popular among americans. Biden and trump had sold the public on this. It is the management that everyone saw that is so unpopular, and its giving someone like graham an opportunity to say, this is going to go south. I think we really have to take the temperature of this weeks and months from now. It still remains a problem for the administration because americans are stuck there. And over the 9 11 anniversary, there will be a lot of criticism from republicans about negotiating with the taliban. As long as americans are there, obviously, the White House is going to continue negotiating with the taliban to get them out. But i think well have to take a look at this issue months from now to see the damage and not take the temperature in the heat of this moment or really worry about what Lindsey Graham is saying. Much obliged to our Starting Line on this tuesday night. Phil, eugene, a. B. , friends of the broadcast call. Thanks for starting us off. Coming up, maybe youre old enough to remember the predictions that september, this month, was supposed to be when we all filed back into work. Well, now, its september, and not so much. We can thank the Delta Variant and the antivaxxers. Well ask a doctor when he predicts normal american Life Or Something close to it will make its return. Later, in texas, you get to carry a gun, no problem. But if you want to vote or obtain an abortion, not so much. Well talk about the politics, as texas stays on brand.

Exactly how things go in the next few weeks is unknown. I think we could be at this for at least a few more weeks, and maybe for the rest of 2021. A troubling prediction from the noted vaccine scientist, dr. Peter hotez. Cdc data showing over 95 of all of the counties in our country experiencing high rates of transmission. 75 of american adults have now received at least one vaccine dose, but as we said, the White House says the president will debut later this week a new sixpronged strategy, meant to curb this variant, get more shots in more arms. So were happy to have back with us again tonight, dr. Irvin redlenner. Doctor, i want to gauge your level of concern and maybe its regional for the weeks and months ahead. Well, good evening, brian. So unfortunately, something like this kind of pandemic with a wildly out of control Delta Variant is not likely to stay anything, regional or otherwise. In the northeast, were in a bubble, and hopefully it doesnt lead to complacency where we think were invulnerable. I think all bets are off. And i think we do need to be cautious. We just had our big labor day holiday, with a lot of people gathering together. And were putting 55 Million children back into classrooms. I think that is together kind of a dangerous combination of factors that could really cause us to have even a greater surge than were currently experiencing. I think the good news on the horizon is that hopefully we may get more people vaccinated. Although that will be a pretty uphill road. Merck will come out with its new drug that will be used to treat the virus. If we dont do that, i really kind of dont agree entirely with my friend peter hotez. I actually think it could be a lot longer than The End of this year before were back to something that we remember as normal. That gets our attention, certainly. To that end, as you know, when companies the likes of Apple And Google put out statements pushing return to work, in some paces, to 2022, that gets your attention. American workers sit up and take notice. Is the american work force, is american commerce already in a new normal that is just going to continue for some time . Well, thats highly likely, brian. And listen, i think that the companies are really responding to the daytoday fluctuations and dynamism of this virus. We need to keep watching the numbers, watching the variants. Hope that other variants dont Pop Up and cause us even more concern. In the meantime, the companies are doing all they can do, the same as at my university. A month ago, they said September 1st will be the reopening. Now theyre backing off of that. Many, many organizations are, and with good reason, brian. I want to play for you some comments from dr. Fauci earlier today on cnn. Well discuss on the other side. The proper regimen will very likely as we look back on it months from now will be that three doses is really what you should be getting of an mrna. First of all, doc, i assume you have nothing but enduring Faith And Confidence in your old Friend And Colleague in this line of work, dr. Fauci. Second of all, is what he is describing the new normal medically, where vaccinations are going to be concerned . I think it is going to be the new normal. Theres been a lot of cause for concern, with data from israel that says that even after the second full dose of the mrna vaccine, moderna or pfizer, after some number of months, protection starts to drop. And were worried about that. And i think that Tony Fauci is saying something that is entirely valid. Lets get ahead of this. Lets not wait for people to become nonimmune. Lets give a big boost right now, or as soon as we can to everybody that has been twodose immunized to date. The dilemma is, the World Health Organization is also very concerned that were indulging ourselves in a third dose when there are so many countries around the world that dont have enough vaccine. We have a lot of variables to weigh. But i think the scientific validity of What Fauci was saying is doctor, thank you very much as always for your time and for taking our questions. Coming up for us, as of tonight, its more difficult for many texans to vote. Full stop. Well ask Susan Glasser and Peter Baker what happens now. Earn at The End of their first year automatically woo i got my money its hard to contain yourself isnt it . Uh huh well let it go woooo get a dollar for Dollar Match at The End of your first year.

It does also however make sure that it is harder for people to cheat at the Ballot Box in texas. All spoken with a straight face. Contrary to what he just said, Texas GovernorGreg Abbott signed into Law Today some of the most sweeping Voting Restrictions in the united states. Five lawsuits already filed in an attempt to strike it down. Here with us tonight, Peter Baker, journalist and author. And Susan Glasser, Staff Writer for the New Yorker. Theyre husband and wife. And theyre where journalism is concerned the coauthors of The Man Who Ran WashingtonThe Life And Times of James A. Baker iii. Now out in paperback. Good evening, and welcome to you both. Susan, id like to begin with a clip from Nicolle Wallace on her broadcast this afternoon on Voting Restrictions. Goprun states run zero risk of being slowed down if Washington Democrats remain in a defensive crouch about the sanctity of the filibuster. Democrats seem poised to do nothing yet. I want to be wrong about that. Message to any Washington Democrat watching, before you tweet at me or text me, please make me dead wrong about this. Susan, she lays out the question nicely there. Its a Twopart Question to you. Is the will there, to say nothing of the way . You know, brian, i think the Question Tonight really is, are we headed, two different countries, headed in radically different directions . You have texas and other states with restrictions to voting rights. And the question is, do democrats have enough control over the houses of congress to be able to steer in the opposite direction . Its not just a question of washington versus the states. But as nicolle pointed out, does biden, do the democrats have enough leverage with a 50 50 senate to do anything at the federal level about this . Right now, it feels to me like early days of the civil rights movement. When there was pressure on the federal government to do something, but there just wasnt yet the momentum and the ability to do so. And so peter, over to you. Speaking of a will and a way, where do you put the chances of seeing the filibuster overturned . I dont think theres a great deal of chance of that at the moment. Because you need to get every single democrat on board, and at least two or three have made clear, theyre still very skeptical about that. Senators manchin and sinema, and others have not said it out loud. You could find a way getting around the entire filibuster. You could say it doesnt apply specifically in this type of legislation, something more limited like that. But even there, youve seen resistance from these moderate senators. And you hear from the Aoc Wing of the party, very angry at these moderate democrats for resisting the changes to the filibuster. Not just because of voting rights, but for a number of other things theyd like to push through. So far, that doesnt look like its changed even with the signing of the legislation in texas today. And as a. B. Pointed out earlier in the broadcast, aoc doesnt have the same reelection concerns. And why are texas republicans specifically so emboldened in that state, where we keep hearing the demographic clock is ticking against them quickly . You know, brian, i ask myself that all the time. I remember publishing a piece more than five years ago in politico, is this the year that texas is finally going to turn from purple back to blue . We havent seen that yet. If anything, the 2020 election seems to have as you said emboldened the republican, what was a minority. But i think is holding firm. Its a backlash in some ways that were seeing to the prospect of this kind of demographic shift in texas. The question i have is, will this rip the state even further apart, to pass Abortion Legislation like that, where even republican leadership a couple of years ago would have found it too extreme . And theyre pulling farther and farther away from the mainstream of the country. New yorker and New York times well represented tonight. Youve agreed to stay with us while we fit in a break.

Donald trump announced tonight he plans to return to iowa next month for a rally in the first in the nation caucus state. Politico has new Reporting Today on the notion of a possible 2024 run. Quote, with a flurry of activity from his main political committee and hints dropped in private conversations, Donald Trump is signaling a heightened interest in reclaiming the White House and laying the necessary groundwork to do it. Still with us, Peter Baker and Susan Glasser. Peter, trigger warning, were going to discuss the guy you just finishing covering for so many years. The announcement of the rally in iowa, the announcement that on the anniversary of 9 11, trump is going to be guest announcing a Prize Fight as so many of our former president s have chosen to do on 9 11. Is this a not so soft launch for a president ial campaign . Do you really think hes going to go through with it . Well, look, i think he wants us to think hes going to go through with it, right up until the moment he really decides. He wants us to talk about him and continue to consider him to be an important force in american politics, which he is. He wants people to go to mar a lago to ask for his endorsement. The minute he says hes not running in 2024, that disappears. So even if he says he is running, thats not the final word. I dont think well know until after the midterms in 2022 whether hes genuinely running. He wants us to think he is up until the moment he decides for real. Because otherwise, all of this goes away. Susan, when Donald Trump approached the republican party, he found no barrier to entry. Ditto as a candidate and as a president. No impediment to operating the way he wished. And it seems were in the middle of this new dynamic, where republican candidates across the country feel the need to embrace maga fully to get elected. A question regarding your book, the cover i look at, at least once a day in my home. James a. Baker, at the height of his power, walking the Corridors Of Power in washington. Could he have had, could any known figure have had the ability to turn away a Donald Trump, knowing the effect it would have downstream on the political party he loved so much . You know, i think a lot of people have asked the question about, is it possible even to have a Jim Baker in the context of our almost broken, dysfunctional Politics Today . Especially in a republican party that has turned so far in a different direction, made it almost unrecognizable to those like baker, who built it up in the 1980s and the 1990s. To me, the question of Donald Trump and is it even the republican party, does it bear any resemblance to it . The Bottom Line is, its much more of a cult of personality that trump has cultivated over the last few years. And that the republicans have gone along with. I mean, after january 6th, i think that was really a dividing line. Its really hard to see that you could have any figure come in and after that, after the first term of Donald Trump being what it was, lets say he runs again, as you were just discussing with peter. Can you imagine a second trump presidency, and the idea that any kind of a figure like a Jim Baker in the White House is going to be able to tell Donald Trump what to do . The story of his presidency was the story of him feeling less and less constrained, and more and more empowered to do whatever he wanted. And seeing republicans follow after him, even after january 6th. Its hard for me to see anyone being a Trump Wrangler in any sense of the word anymore, you know . To viewers who just joined this scene late, its true that Powerful Washington bylines do not usually get along this well. Thank god theyre married. Susan and peter, thanks for coming on.

People talked about the trauma they experienced for that day, and for the upcoming anniversary, the Film Makers went back to check in on many of those same people today. Lets go lets go at this point, i looked at my mom and my family and i was like, this is crazy. Lets get out of here. I thought we should just start walking away from the world trade center.
