rate by 3/4 of a percentage rate and we expect ongoing increases will be appropriate. hello and welcome. thursday, september 22nd. 9 a.m. in london. 4 a.m. in washington and new york. he faces a new lawsuit and unprecedented number of investigations. it ruled the justice department can resume the criminal investigation and review of classified documents seized from his mar-a-lago home and resort during an fbi search. that coming hours after the new york attorney general announced a sweeping lawsuit against three of trump s children and trump himself. they re accused of staggering amounts and they say the disclaimer was included on loan applications. it basically says to an institution. you are going to loan money, you have to make sure you get your own appraisers, own lawyers, everything. these are banks that have the best lawyers in the world, shawn. by the way, they got paid back. just so you know. everything was paid back? nobody got harmed? i never got a default.
yesterday. the war in ukraine has raised the question whether the u.s. and russia will still continue to cooperate. they said in july they would. after nearly eight weeks two winners of the third largest lottery jackpot in u.s. history have finally claimed their prize. the mega millions drawing was worth 1 point be point $34 billion which is equal to $780.5 millionish in cash. the pair that have agreed to split the wings bought it in des plaines, illinois, just north of chicago. the winners, who wish to remain anonymous, said they spent the last few weeks working with legal advisers. they are over the moon. of course they are. before we go, madam tousseau
seeing price increases for things like fuel, gasoline, spill over into other areas. for me one of the most shocking part of that report that just came out was 33% increase in airfares over the last year. that boggles my mind. the airlines got bailed out during the covid crisis. another thank you is americans are raising our prices 33%. arthel: if americans were to stick it to their airlines and drive to the vacation spots with that can be pricey too, john perna want to take a look right now from the bureau of statistics showing increases this is since april 2021. if you look at energy inflation, gas is up 43.6%. fuel oil, 80.5%. rodent food inflation, this is april 2021. eight is up 13.9%. milk is up.
this, you could piece together, hey, maybe mcauliffe could make it up. but when you add in what we are seeing in these rural areas, the trump friendly areas in different parts of the state, that becomes a tougher pill to swallow if you are the democrats. a couple other big population centers here in northern virginia, we are waiting just on same day vote. in arlington county, outside of washington, d.c., i think this will tick up a few points in youngkin s favor before all is said and done. biden was at 80.5. this might come down a few more for mcauliffe. fairfax is the big one we are waiting on for the bulk of the vote here. what you are seeing with mcauliffe is, this is the mail vote right here that you are looking at. this is the vote by mail. this is the best democratic vote you are going to see in fairfax county. this is the best he is going to do. you have the early vote and you have a lot of the same day vote that s going to come into this fairfax total.
