are at 4. the desantis campaign has just released a video making his formal announcement. let s take a look. the federal government makes it harder for families to make ends meet. and the president flounders. but decline is a choice. success is attainable, and freedom is worth fighting for. writing the ship requires restoring sanity to our society. normalcy to our communities, and integrity to our institutions. truth must be our foundation. and common sense can no longer be an uncommon virtue. in florida, we prove that it can be done. we chose facts over fear, education over indoctrination, law and order over rioting and disorder. we held the line when freedom hung in the balance. we showed that we can and must revitalize america. we need the courage to lead and the strength to win. i m ron desantis, and i m running for president to lead our great american comeback. bret: more on that in a bit. governor desantis now becomes the main challenger to former president trum
first african pope. is the catholic church at a crossroads? cardinal peter turkson, welcome to hardtalk. thank you. in your long career in the church, you have seen the centre of gravity, the geographical centre of gravity of the church, shift quite dramatically. what difference do you think it has made? well, thanks for having me on the show. yeah, it is true. it is true that what used to be. ..a church centred in europe, out of which a lot of missionaries went out, and so came to africa and several other places in the south, we see some decline. decline that manifests itself first in the form that missionaries are no more. ..out there to be sent. church numbers are dwindling. but in the home of those missionaries. yes, yes. in germany, in germany, in france, in ireland. absolutely. and those countries where the missionaries did their work so many years ago, they re not really needed now because the catholic church is in countries such as your own in ghana. right. so that is
this is the faulkner focus. i am in for harris today. so far no splashy events or speeches since the president announced his re-election bid one month ago and one day ago. his rivals on both sides meantime of the aisle already making moves. the president s low profile may be not hitting with voters. a new fox poll shows only 33% see the commander in chief as a strong leader. our own karl rove says it will be tough to change minds. this guy is in real trouble and do we think he is going to get better, people will see him as a stronger leader? only if there s an international or national crisis in which he acts in a way that goes against the type we developed in our minds of him over the last two and a half, three years. i don t see it happening. the president got more competition this week across the aisle. south carolina senator tim scott and florida governor desantis announcing their 2024 bids as biden slogs along. desantis hitting the ground running. he is having a camp

just did the exact same thing when you overpromise on reparations. not too long ago, governor slick was patting himself on the back of her what a great idea it was. i think it was heracles who said we do not imitate, we are a model for the world. that is a little braggadocio s. i like the spirit of what you guys are saying. this is not just about california, this is about making an impact across the rest of the country. jesse: that all sounded great, but then gavin newsom saw the price tag. $800 billion, with up to $1.2 million payments going to eligible black residents. it is no wonder gavin newsom is backtracking on the massive handouts, telling fox news digital, dealing with that legacy is about much more than cash payments. now, newsom s team is clarifying those comments and says the governor is not backing away from cash payments, but wants to wait for the report in its entirety to arrive on his desk before he makes any decision. newsom needs to learn the art of
