a fan who s going to watch the game like the rest of us. thanks for joining me today. smerconish is up next. legal exoneration, political nightmare. i m michael smerconish, legal nightmare. the report of the investigation into president biden s handling of classified documents. the word exoneration, an overstatement, i think, how bad was it, the president who turned down a pre-super bowl interview with a guaranteed audience of millions in an election year sudly felt obliged to speak to the nation in prime time from a diplomatic reception room at the white house. when he did, he seemed to be in denial about the substance and the political implications. the majority of americans including a majority of democrats have major or moderate concerns about biden s fitness nor a second term. when cnn raised that with the president he said that was only her incorrect perception. when you were asked about your age, you would respond with the words, watch me. many american people have

derailment in east palestine, ohio, that added chemicals. but now there s fear onsite, but also where the waste from all the chemicals, where that s headed. governor of indiana is pushing back against shipments of contaminated materials headed to his state. roseville, indiana is one of four designated facilities. and the only one in ohio. last week, they prompted the epa to look elsewhere. the mayor of east palestine gave this response a short time ago. i definitely think we re on a good path. there s definitely say lot of questions that still remain to be answered. as far as people from the other states, they knew the facilities were in their states. and i understand their concern, but at the same time, it s governed by the federal epa. so, therefore, you know, it should be safe for all of the citizens there. east palestine s mayor met with epa administrator michael regan who is on his third visit to the disaster zone. cnn s miguel marquez joins us from east palestine.
